CAMEALEON's work would not be possible without the generous support from UK aid from the British people, the European Union, through the EU Regional Trust Fund in response to the Syrian crisis, the EU Madad Fund, the German Federal Foreign Office, and the Norwegian Ministry of Foreign Affairs. CAMEALEON is funded by the same donors funding the WFP MPC programme, namely the UK aid from the British people, the European Union through the EU Regional Trust Fund in Response to the Syrian crisis (the EU Madad Fund), the Norwegian Ministry of Foreign Affairs (NMFA) and the German Federal Foreign Office (GFFO).
The European Union’s (EU) Regional Trust Fund pools an increasing share of the EU’s aid to the region into one single and flexible instrument. The Fund primarily addresses educational, economic, social, and health needs of Syrian refugees while also supporting overstretched local communities and their administrations. The EU Trust Fund bridges the nexus between humanitarian relief and development aid: (1) It addresses early recovery, as well as resilience and self-reliance needs of refugees and IDPs, in a manner that also benefits local communities, and preserves the stability of neighbouring countries; (2) It supports countries hosting refugees by investing in health and education, economic development, job creation and integration into labour markets, for both local communities and refugees, especially vulnerable groups such as women and youth.
The Norwegian Ministry of Foreign Affairs (NMFA) works for Norway’s interests internationally: to safeguard the country’s freedom, security and prosperity. Norway’s interests are determined by such factors as its geographical location in a strategically important area, its open economy, its position as a coastal state and steward of substantial marine resources, and its extensive exports of oil and gas. The Ministry also works to promote peace and security, an international legal system, an economically just world order and sustainable development. Finding a solution to issues of this kind is in Norway’s interests too, while at the same time efforts in these areas are an expression of international solidarity.
The German Federal Foreign Office (GFFO) is the foreign ministry of Germany that promotes international exchange and offers protection and assistance to Germans abroad. It also maintains Germany’s relations with other countries as well as with international and supra-national organisations. GFFO promotes intensive interaction and exchange with the world in the fields of business, culture, science and technology, the environment, development issues and many more.
The EU Civil Protection and Humanitarian Aid Operations (ECHO) department has been providing assistance to people in need since 1992. Its annual humanitarian budget is just over €1 billion, and helps millions of people across the globe each year.
The Foreign, Commonwealth, and Development Office (FCDO) is a ministerial department in the UK government, supported by 12 agencies and public bodies. FCDO works on pursuing the UK’s national interests and projects as a force for good in the world. It promotes the interests of British citizens, safeguards the UK’s security, defends their values, reduces poverty, and tackles global challenges with international partners.
