In Sumatra, IMC's focus is on both post-tsunami recovery and post-conflict reconciliation and rehab activities. Central to these, IMC works to intergrate clinical mental health services into primary care. Complementary community-based activities include the reconstruction of fishing fleets through a mixture of grants, soft loans and tool loans; essential water and sanitation provision; the re-establishment of traditional women's tailoring groups; and the construction of replacement health facilities.

The tsunami that followed the 2004 undersea earthquake in the Indian Ocean northwest of the Indonesian island of Sumatra devastated most parts of Aceh and Nias. The disaster also killed more than 200,000 people and caused displacement and food security problems for the survivors. This project will help rebuild livelihoods for fishermen and small-scale farmers. The project will also promote community-based natural resources management and provide training for 1,500 families in sustainable farming and animal husbandry management.

Indigenous people in remote areas have little access to education, health care and other public services. The growth of large plantations and illegal logging in Sumatra has decreased their access to land and forest resources. This project will improve the livelihood of indigenous people in northern Sumatra. The families will raise livestock and plant organic kitchen gardens. Some 350 families will receive poultry, fish, pigs, goats and vegetable seeds.
