Our Work

01

EMERGENCY FOOD ASSISTANCE

To stabilize basic nutrition across conflict-affected townships, CTER delivers life-saving food aid directly to families fleeing violence. We prioritize reaching last-mile returnee villages and remote IDP camps cut off from regular supply chains.

72% of displaced populations rank food security as their absolute highest priority for survival.
Essential Rations distributed include vital sacks of rice, cooking oil, salt, and nutrient-dense yellow split beans.
60+ IDP Camps and villages are systematically reached through our coordinated community distribution networks.

02

SHELTER & NON-FOOD ITEMS (NFIs)

Continuous conflict and aerial bombardments leave thousands of arriving families exposed to harsh seasonal elements without basic protection. CTER steps in immediately to provide essential materials that safeguard daily health, restore basic privacy, and help individuals live with dignity.

88% of displaced communities urgently require regular distributions of protective supplies for survival.
Critical Protection is delivered through the distribution of heavy-duty tarpaulins, warm blankets, and treated mosquito nets to prevent vector-borne illnesses.
Over 50% of families currently reside in makeshift shelters where they feel fundamentally unsafe from active local security threats.

03

EMERGENCY DISASTER RESPONSE

Displaced Karenni communities face compounding crises when active conflict overlaps with severe environmental emergencies. When sudden natural disasters hit, CTER rapidly mobilizes targeted emergency relief funds and critical resources to support hard-to-reach camps and returning villages in stabilizing their living conditions.

3,908 Individuals across 28 disaster-affected locations were rapidly reached with direct support following the recent severe regional earthquake.
Direct Mobilization includes distributing immediate emergency cash assistance alongside crucial construction items like heavy nails and zinc roofing sheets.
Rebuilding Shelters serves as our primary operational goal, allowing highly vulnerable families to quickly restore security and rebuild destroyed community infrastructure.

04

WASH & Clean Water

To combat severe water contamination and damaged infrastructure in IDP camps, CTER installs sustainable, community-led water solutions. By building multi-stage Bio-Sand filtration systems, mountain transmission pipelines, and spring water catchments, we deliver life-saving clean water directly to those who need it most.

45% of displaced people currently face non-functional or dried-up water points.
Over 550 displaced individuals recently received restored access to safe drinking water.
300 students are now protected from waterborne diseases through our recent school installations.

05

ADVOCACY & ASSESSMENT

To ensure that limited humanitarian resources are directed to where they are needed most, CTER conducts systematic, on-the-ground needs assessments directly within conflict zones. This critical, field-based evidence is shared globally to amplify the voices of displaced communities and guide donor interventions accurately.

60+ IDP Camps are directly surveyed by our field teams to map out gaps in food security, clean water, and physical protection.
8 Townships across Karenni State and neighboring border regions are continuously assessed to capture shifting migration patterns.
Global Awareness is driven by our monthly briefers, transforming raw data into strategic tools for international advocacy and transparent donor funding.
