TGH background

« Actor in a sustainable and shared solidarity »

Founded in 1994, TGH is a French international solidarity organization based in Lyon. The association designs and implements emergency, rehabilitation and development programs in the following sectors: water, hygiene and sanitation, civil engineering, food security and livelihood, education and child protection. TGH is currently operating in 10 countries in Africa, Asia, Europe and the Middle East.

Presentation of the mission

TGH has a long-standing presence in Sudan: first implementing a multi-sectoral program targeting displaced people and host communities in Geneina (West Darfur) in 2004, it extended its presence to Central Darfur (Bindizi and Um Dukhun) in 2005 and 2006 respectively. Since then, TGH has maintained a continuous presence in both states, despite an increasingly complex context, and has also intervened in Khartoum, Gedaref State, Al-Jazeera State, and South Kordofan.

Since the outbreak of the current Sudan conflict in April 2023, creating the largest displacement population in the world at current time, TGH has developed multi-sectoral projects in consortium with other international NGOs to meet the needs of crisis-affected populations in Darfur, Khartoum and Jazeera states. TGH has more than 100 national staff in the field, based in Golo, Um Dukhun, Bendasi, Zalingei (Central Darfur), Geneina & Foro Baranga (West Darfur), Sennar state, and its coordination office in Port Sudan. It has more than 10 expats based in Chad & Sudan.

TGH’s extensive and long-standing presence in Sudan, in particular in West and Central Darfur, enables us to understand the context and the evolution of humanitarian needs and to deliver life-saving humanitarian assistance where it is needed the most.

Ongoing activities include:

• Emergency assistance to displaced people affected by conflict and/or natural disasters (provision of NFIs and emergency shelter, hygiene and dignity kits, etc).
• Construction and rehabilitation of water supply systems and sanitation services, hygiene promotion and capacity building of community-based committees and local authorities in WASH services sustainable management
• Strengthening of food security and livelihood, through distribution of agricultural inputs, promotion of farming best practices, sustainable natural resources management, development of income generating activities, as well as provision of MPCA.
• Child Protection activities including PSS, CP Case Management, support for Child Friendly Spaces, and CP awareness-raising.

With a current volume of approximately 14 millions, TGH in Sudan is funded by donors such as ECHO, BHA, OCHA-SHF, and CIAA (French MoFA).

Presentation of the project

During this unstable period, TGH is globally resuming emergency activities by adapting the response to the deterioration of the context in the sectors of WASH, Protection, NFI/ES and FSL. The area of intervention will depend on the evolution of the conflict and the access to Khartoum and areas of displacement e.g. Al Jazira State. The CDCS consortium aim to ensure access to timely emergency lifesaving multi-sectoral assistance to conflict-affected populations, including access to health and nutrition care, WASH, Shelter/NFI, Protection and MPCA. Within this consortium, TGH will focus on the 3 sectors of MPCA, WASH and Child Protection in close coordination with other consortium partners (PUI; SI; MercyCorps). Flexibility is needed both in the way of working and in the way of implementing the projects – including with international and local partners.
