The authors provide a general analysis of the sociopolitical situation in three basic regions of the Northeast Caucasus, Chechnya, Ingushetia and Dagestan, from the perspective of practical action in the area of humanitarian and charitable activities there. These efforts are directed toward assisting the interaction and implementation of constructive programs on the level of international and nongovernmental organizations, as well as on the level of individual initiatives. Thus, the authors cite examples of organizations which have been successful in these initiatives. They also describe projects that may be implemented in the near future.
