Background and context The Danish Refugee Council (DRC) has been providing relief and development services in the Horn of Africa since 1997. The DRC Somalia Programme is the largest of the six country programmes in the Horn of Africa and Yemen region. DRC is among the INGOs with the largest presence in Somalia, with country-wide programmes implemented through six main sub offices in Somaliland and Puntland in the north and in Hiraan Region, Gedo Region, Bay Region and Banadir Region in South and Central Somalia. Because we are there, DRC is able to respond rapidly and flexibly to recurrent crises and the needs of Somalis who are affected by humanitarian crises. DRC supports refugees, migrants, internally displaced populations and other persons affected by crises in both urban and rural settings. DRC implements activities in Somalia in the following sectors: WASH, Shelter and Non-Food Items (NFIs); Protection; Food Security and Livelihoods (FSL). Within its broad project portfolio, DRC is working to facilitate the attainment of solutions for protracted IDPs, returnees and host communities in Somalia. As part of this strategy and with Financial Assistance from the Norwegian Directorate of Immigration (UDI), DRC is implementing the Assisted Voluntary Return and Reintegration (AVRR) project in Somalia to promote and facilitate sustainable reintegration of voluntary returnees. Beneficiaries of the reintegration project receive a cash grant for immediate needs upon arrival, individual counselling sessions and a comprehensive livelihood package including business training skill and start-up grants based on individual reintegration plans. Constant monitoring of the reintegration process is carried out by local DRC staff. 2.
