Regions

NiMSA consists of 6 regions. South- South, South-West, South-East, North-Central, North-East and North-West. These regions were set up to make it easier for members to tackle similar issues on the regional level. Each Region is headed by a Regional Co-Ordinator

About Regions

In 1983, the Standing Committee on Refugees was formed, aiming to call attention to the problems faced by the displaced population and participate in relief efforts. The committee members soon realized that these efforts were merely palliative, whereas a sustainable solution would have to address the root of the problem – violence, conflicts and human rights violations.

In 1995, the committee changed the name to the Standing Committee on Refugees and Peace, and finally, in 2005 it became the SCORP that we know today, the Standing Committee on Human Rights and Peace.
