CARE Bolivia response to floods

The goal of CARE’s emergency response strategy is to contribute to the immediate alleviation of suffering and losses caused by the disasters, recognising that disaster contributes to the creation and aggravation of poverty. CARE’s response will focus from the outset on not only emergency assistance, but also towards rehabilitation as a means of assisting disaster-affected communities to recover and move towards sustainable development. CARE will seek to mitigate situations that aggravate vulnerability and risk, and will assist families to protect and recover their livelihoods. CARE’s programme will assist a total of 23,400 people (3,900 families-800 families in San Julian, 400 families in Pando and 2,700 families in Potosi).
