The Impact of the Northern Ethiopia Crisis Response (NECR)

The booklet details the journey of World Vision’s Global CAT III Northern Ethiopia Crisis Response (NECR). Launched in December 2020, NECR reached over 8.9 million conflict-affected individuals, including 4.1 million children across Tigray, Amhara, and Afar regions, delivering lifesaving assistance and fostering resilience in the face of one of the country’s most complex humanitarian crises.

As we concluded NECR on September 30, 2024, this booklet reflects on the response’s achievements, challenges, and lessons learned over nearly four years. It also marks the transition to a sustainable humanitarian response, ensuring that the structures, knowledge, and strategies developed during the NECR continue to benefit vulnerable communities in Ethiopia.
