As we approach Christmas, we invite all to be part of a joint project by Haben Tigray & Green Tuneydbah Foundation to support Tigrayan refugees in Sudan by contributing uto start farms and feed their families.
Recent information from refugees indicates that food aid provided by the World Food Program (WFP) which was previously inadequate has been reduced further by 50% starting from August 2022. The resulting food-insecurity, lack of basic needs and income to support themselves and their families leaves the populations vulnerable to risks that affect their health and security.
As a response, Haben Tigray is collaborating with individuals and organizations to promote small-scale farming solutions for these refugees by supporting a project which would help them produce food for their households by making use of the small plots of land near their shelters. This can help them gain income while creating employment opportunities throughout the camp. Green Tunaydbah Foundation (GTF) was established by refugees to mobilize the community around farming activities in the camp. Through its initial work with 184 refugees, GTF has proven that the lives of multiple households can be changed for the better with resourcefulness, innovation, and local community action.

Since access to members or funds in Tigray has been blocked since June 2021, Haben Tigray was forced to pause its operations within Tigray. This necessitated redefining of focus to expand efforts into to more comprehensive programs and specific projects targeting challenges the people of Tigray are facing. Following multiple brainstorming exercises among members, fifteen programs were identified in October. From these larger programs, three priority engagement projects were selected as core areas of focus as short-term objectives

Haben Tigray's core members have recognized the need to redefine its focus and are working towards achieving its goals by expanding the initial member-based operations using its own resources to a more comprehensive approach. This will allow Haben Tigray to maximize its collaboration with other peer associations and also make use of resources from larger international organizations. In September, the members have identified twelve large programs each of which comprise multiple projects. The initial focus programs have been selected based on priority determined by the members. We look forward to our collaborations with individuals, peer associations and other organizations on these critical programs and projects.

Haben Tigray is excited to announce the commencement and development of Haben Tigray Youth this August to create a platform for the youth who have shown immense love for and desire to help Tigray and Tegaru. Using such a platform, our youth can discuss the different ideas they bring forth and brainstorm in their own ways to come up with solutions to the abysmal problems Tigray is facing, in an organized manner for maximum impact. Other benefits of this platform include the transfer of knowledge and skills both from and to the youth, bolstered unity as community, access to the benefits and tools that the tax exempt status brings about, and many more.
