Building Resilient Communities in Somalia (BRCiS) is a humanitarian Consortium that takes a holistic approach to supporting Somali communities in developing their capacities to understand and manage hazards and shocks so that they can build a better future for themselves. Created in 2013, the Consortium now has eight members and is led by The Norwegian Refugee Council (NRC). It manages a portfolio of contracts implemented in all Federal Member States of Somalia and funded by various donors, including FCDO, the World Bank, USAID, QFFD and more. BRCIS 3 is the third programme for the BRCiS Consortium, and it will aim to improve the health, food security, and nutrition status of marginalised communities by restoring vital ecosystem services through community-led regeneration and strengthened, more inclusive natural resource management (Output 1) and increasing demand for and sustainable local production of nutritious food (Output 2). BRCiS will also engage members of marginalised communities in diverse market-based livelihoods and financial inclusion initiatives (Output 3) to increase their access to financial assets, meet basic needs and increase investment in collective and individual resilience capacities. Additionally, BRCiS will engage local leaders and community-led structures to become more inclusive and better understand, advocate for and manage community priorities (Output 4) and in parallel establish and strengthen functioning, sustainable Early Warning, Early Action (EWEA) systems (Output 5), enabling communities be more inclusive, better organised, able to respond collectively to shocks from their own resources, raise additional resources when needed, and protect the most vulnerable. Across all outputs, BRCiS will integrate environmental risk assessment and management, gender equity and social inclusion.
