The Synenose Accord Humanitarian Initiative: Intaki Civil Relief & Medical Outreach Program
For Immediate Release

From: Dr. Ninavask Revan, CEO of The Synenose Accord
With Support From: Intaki Prime Relief Effort & Coordinator Neha en Dimapur

Statement of Purpose
The Synenose Accord, in partnership with the Intaki Prime Relief Effort, is proud to announce the deployment of a chain of medical clinics within the Intaki system. These clinics are designed to provide lasting and impartial humanitarian relief to the citizens of Intaki. Offering both long-term care and emergency response capability to those who need it most.

This initiative arises in response to ongoing instability and the strains of political uncertainty in the system and local region of the Federation. It is built on the principle that all people, regardless of affiliation, deserve access to quality medical care and dignity in times of hardship.

Deployment Overview
The program will begin with the establishment of three privately funded non-profit clinics:

  • Two clinics situated on Intaki Prime.

  • One clinic located aboard the Astral Mining Inc. Refinery, accessible to spacefaring baseliners.

Additionally, mobile field clinic units will be dispatched to underserved districts and conflict-affected regions of the system. Each clinic will be fully staffed with medical personnel and on site security to ensure the safety and security of our personnel, and all who require aid.

Standards & Neutrality

  • All personnel will sign a non-political oath of service.

  • Operations will comply with Sisters of EVE humanitarian protocols.

  • Clinics will provide bi-monthly transparency reports to local civil and security authorities.

  • Facilities will be clearly marked as neutral, independent safe zones, accessible to any in need.

Intended Impact
These clinics will primarily serve baseliners and the underprivileged residents of Intaki, providing affordable long-term healthcare, general medical treatment, and equal-opportunity emergency care. Emergency treatment will never be denied, even in the absence of identification or proof of status.

The goal is simple: to improve quality of life, safeguard human dignity, and ensure that those who have suffered from conflict or neglect can receive help without fear of reprisal or discrimination.

Future Outlook
Following the success of the initial deployment, the Synenose Accord and Intaki Prime Relief Effort will consider expanding the clinics’ reach and scope across the Intaki system. We invite support, collaboration, and dialogue with any organization or group willing to uphold the same principles of neutrality and humanitarian service.

Signed,
Dr. Ninavask Revan
CEO, The Synenose Accord

Speaking in my limited capacity as a scholar of Caldari political sciences, I can say that I have a great deal of respect for the Synenose Accord’s ability to provide mutual aid regardless of political affiliation. Particularly at a time where the question of Intaki sovereignty is more polarized than ever. I’d encourage all parties, particularly those aligned with the goals of Caldari aligned labor nationalism who otherwise might view themselves at odds with the status of the Intaki system, to recognize and honor their accomplishments in providing much-needed medical care to the Intaki working class in a region increasingly squeeze by the pressures of Federal overreach and liberal austerity. They’re a beacon of solidarity that we should strive to emulate.

Thank you Dr Revan for making the announcement.

The Intaki Prime Relief Effort is proud to be a partner in this new program.

I’m very confident that our network of volunteers and distribution hubs will do well to support our new colleagues at The Synenose Accord, to maximise the benefits to communities across Intaki Prime.

I would like to echo the positive responses already given to the program announced earlier today.

Absolutely.

It was in the interests of political neutrality that I recommended my good friend Neha and the Intaki Prime Relief Effort to work alongside The Synenose Accord, when the Intaki Liberation Front was approached regarding the program earlier this month.

To avoid any potential political distractions, I and the ILF will support our colleagues from the side lines on this occasion, but those involved know they have our full support, should they need it.

While I would like to state that I have the utmost respect for humanitarian intervention in times of crisis, I question the need for such investments at this time. Are there any reports that show civilian medical services throughout the Intaki system is currently being or recently has been strained beyond capacity?

With neutrality in mind, should this project aim to undercut already established services in the area it may prove disruptive to the local economy and have unforeseen consequences in the short-term political climate of the system.

Although political implications are not my forte. Interplanetary economics are.
Acts of charity seldom stimulate a struggling region onto the path of long-term recovery.

Tatani-haani makes a good point, I myself have been skeptical of international aid as a mechanism of imperialism. Nominally independent non-government organizations providing subsistence aid are often tied to state actors who will use that aid dependency as a point of influence and blackmail. Thats why its always better to provide dams, factories, tractors, and other industrial equipment that enables a people to provide for themselves than to provide a people simple assistance like grain, fuel, or medication.

Having said that, I think applying that criticism to this specific instance is somewhat unfounded. The issue here isn’t necessarily that Intaki lacks the infrastructure to provide for its own needs, its that the infrastructure is dominated by partisan forces. Judging by Synenose’s statement, they’re establishing new clinics and infrastructure where non previously existed and are offering medical aid to people who otherwise feel like they can’t safely go to the local government for assistance. They’re also providing skilled medical labor that would otherwise take years if not decades to establish locally, especially if you want it to be independent from the local Federal-occupied government.

I disagree.

There’s a school of thought that says that humanitarian efforts would do better to place some agency and trust in the people they are trying to help. To allow them some dignity in making their own decisions when it comes to addressing the difficulties being faced.

Rather than a benevolent hero stepping in to decide on what the priorities should be, and controlling the flow of funding in line with their own charitable policies, it can actually be more effective to transfer the control and finances directly, and allow the locals (in this case, the Intaki Prime Relief Effort) to decide themselves and what it is they need. Traditional aid often fails because it fails to take into consideration complex local situations, but that’s not what’s required here. A specific need has been identified, and is being addressed with local participation at the fore.

The short answer is yes, though perhaps not at the scale that makes it into a Scope bulletin.

When the Navy first invaded a couple of years ago, there were the protests and the attacks by local resistance groups. IPRE. responded to those situations as they happened, as we have done in the past. In fact we were affected directly at one point, as we had a warehouse in the Lenoika textile district which was a flashpoint between the Free Intaki Army and Federal Marines.

Next came increased Federal scrutiny of shipping into Intaki, and to the surface on Intaki Prime, as they tried to stop groups from providing arms to the Free Intaki Army. But this had a knock on effect to other goods, as well like food stuffs and medical supplies.

And today, the Navy just makes people really nervous. It’s obvious some of them don’t trust the locals, and understandably the locals really don’t like having them still in system. Some organisations have decided they’d simply rather avoid the hassle of dealing with the Navy, and so have taken their trade elsewhere, and that means some stuff is harder to come by.

Yes, time has moved on and the worst of things has passed and yes, Intaki has the infrastructure and systems in place to distribute goods and services to its people. But in any society there are people who fall between the cracks, or can’t always use official service centres for one reason or another.

With this program we can fill the gaps in the supply chain, get help to the people who need it, and not ask any questions along the way.

I feel Coordinator Neha en Dimapur and Bataav helpfully where able to cover to the points I was not quite available to cover myself.

Three clinics are not going to under cut any amount of established services that are pre-existing. We simply look to offer more options for those who might have hesitated in the past to look for aid where they were not sure they would find it, or could not afford it.

This is not a solution to long term problems. This an open hand to help what can be handled now. To relieve some pressure so greater issues and longer term problems can be solved while a hand is offered to help those who might feel they have no say, or no direct power of their own, onto their feet.
