PUI has been operating in the East of Libya, opening an operational base in Benghazi in February 2017, to strengthen the resilience of the most vulnerable populations affected by ongoing conflicts and to improve their access to essential services. The organization’s activities in the country are built upon an integrated approach encompassing comprehensive primary healthcare, psychosocial support, WASH, NFI and protection assistance in order to promote health and well-being amongst targeted populations.

PUI’s emergency intervention in Al-Kufra started in late 2019 through the deployment of a mobile health team (MHT), the rehabilitation of healthcare structures, and the provision of medical equipment and supplies. PUI currently has 2 outreach teams which deliver comprehensive primary health care services to the most vulnerable populations. The deployment of these teams helped to overcome the lack of medical personnel and resources in the area. At community level, PUI coordinates a network of trained community mobilizers to implement sensitization activities, medical screening and referral services. PUI also offers psychosocial counselling via individual and group sessions. Through these activities, PUI delivers messages to highlight the importance of mental health to support the beneficiaries for efficient stress management especially during the COVID-19 crisis. Furthermore, PUI has reinforced Infection Prevention and Control (IPC) through risk communication and community engagement around COVID-19 at community level, and supported local authorities in fighting the pandemic by providing trainings to health professionals. PUI’s capacity building component has helped strengthen health personnel’s ability to respond to the COVID-19 outbreak in the region. As the pandemic affected the procurement of key medical supplies such as personal protective equipment, PUI supported the COVID-19 Response Committees and health facilities through the donation of environmental cleaning materials, personal protective equipment and medical consumables.

S/He follows PUI and national protocols and standards to ensure quality and continuity of care, promotion and restoration of health of the patients and population.
