Conflict, Humanitarian and Security Department
Kenny Dick
Tel: 020 7023 0379
The Conflict, Humanitarian and Security Department works with DFID divisions,
other Whitehall Departments and international partners to tackle humanitarian,
conflict, security and justice issues that underpin poverty in some of the most
vulnerable communities around the world.
Our goal is to reduce the loss of lives, livelihoods and property, the incidence of refugees, and internal displacement in conflicts and natural disasters.
Our recent work has involved helping DFID offices to:
- Manage the impact of floods, earthquakes, hurricanes and conflict in Bangladesh, India, Caribbean, Latin American and Sri Lanka;
- Build up the disaster management capacity of national authorities in Southern Africa and Indonesia;
- Think through how conflict and insecurity impact on poor people in Pakistan and Yemen;
- Design interventions to improve security and help poor people access justice in the Democratic Republic of Congo and Nigeria.

The Stabilisation Unit, previously named the Post Conflict Reconstruction Unit (PCRU),
is jointly owned by DFID, the Foreign
and Commonwealth Office (FCO) and the Ministry of Defence (MOD) (the three “parent
Departments”). It provides specialist, targeted assistance in countries emerging
from violent conflict where the UK is helping to achieve a stable environment
that will enable longer term development to take place.
