following sectors: Child protection, principally in relation to separated children, Health,

assessment, emergency preparedness and response. Where appropriate, reconciliation and
conflict resolution will form a component of projects. Work will focus on communities and
partnerships with national NGOs, CBOs and local government bodies. Where we have the
capacity and can mobilise support, SCF-UK will intervene in emergency work within or
outside these areas but our continued focus will be on reconstruction and rehabilitation."
