In times of crisis—conflict, floods, disease outbreaks, misinformation spreads quickly. Fear escalates. Services are strained. And those most affected are often the last to know what’s happening.
That’s where humanitarian communication comes in.
MECOHEDI responds to emergencies with rapid, accurate, and clear messaging that helps:
Dispel rumors and prevent panic
Share life-saving advice (e.g., evacuation, hygiene, health access)
Promote community solidarity and psychosocial support
Using local radio, mobile phones, community loudspeakers, and even WhatsApp groups, we ensure that no one is left in the dark. We also create feedback loops so affected people can ask questions, share concerns, and receive support.
In one recent emergency response, we deployed a mobile radio van that delivered updates and education to displaced communities within 24 hours of a flood.
Because in a crisis, communication isn’t a luxury, it’s a lifeline.
