Provision of comprehensive for the prevention and management of Moderate Acute Malnutrition among Pregnant and Lactating Women (PLW) and children 6-59 months in Kaxda district of Banaadir. ltpgtWe expect 1.7 million children under five in Somalia to suffer from acute malnutrition in 2024, with 330,630 likely to be severely malnourished. Factors include limited healthcare access, food shortages, and high illness rates. Despite improvements in nutrition, GAM rates exceed 15% in some regions. El Nino floods have affected 2.4 million people, causing infrastructure damage and increasing water and vector-borne diseases, especially among malnourished children. Kaxda District has the country's largest internal displaced population, with an estimated 653,057 people crowded into 1115 mini camps (Somalia CCCM). Recurrent droughts, conflicts triggered by political unrest in many parts of the country, floods, and disease outbreaks are the leading causes of displacement across the country. Kaxda is the destination point for most of the displaced people from the Lower Shebelle, Middle Shebelle, and Bay regions. It is important to note that up to 80% of the displaced people in Banaadir are women and children, who live in crowded makeshift camps and face multiple risks and depreciations. Insufficient and poor-quality basic services, such as health and nutrition, plague the district, preventing children and pregnant and lactating women from accessing basic promotion, prevention, and treatment of acute malnutrition. This, in turn, contributes to the high maternal and child mortality rates in the country. The project aims to address these challenges by providing Moderate Acute malnutrition (MAM) prevention and treatment services for 11,820 children aged 6–59 months (5,910 girls and 5,910 boys) and 5,319 pregnant and lactating women (PLW). AADSOM, working closely with Banaadir Regional Authority (BRA) and health and nutrition partners, will operationalize two (2) health facilities to provide screening of children aged 6-59 months and pregnant lactating women for acute malnutrition, admitting and treating MAM cases, while at the same time referring SAM with and without complications for Outpatient Therapeutic care and inpatient care respectively. At the same time, promotion of appropriate maternal, infant, and young child feeding and care practices and capacity building for frontline health and nutrition staff will be undertaken. In instances where there is a gap in routine immunization in target locations, the project will coordinate with BRA to ensure children under 1 are accessing immunization, contributing to the ongoing efforts to reduce the number of the number of zero-dose children across the country. The project will closely coordinate with relevant actors through the Banaadir nutrition sub-national cluster to ensure the project is fully integrated with the existing healthcare services. Important for integration that AADSOM will pursue is the Better Lives program implemented in the district by ACF, including the stabilization center located within the district hospital, which will be a critical referral path for SAM children with medical complications.ltbrgtlt/pgt

Access to quality essential lifesaving health assistance for conflict and flood-affected IDP and vulnerable host communities in Kismayo districts ltpgtSFH will work through 1 fixed health center-Bula bartire,1 PHU in Bulagaduud and 1 mobile health team that will cover 3 locations (Bulagarasey, Hajiweyn IDP and Ceeljaale 2 IDPs) in Kismayo district to ensure successful implementation of the project. The project target 27900 (4,300 men, 4,980 women, 7,270 boys and 11,350 girls) beneficiaries benefiting from curative and preventing primary health care services.ltbrgtlt/pgtltpgtThe project will be headed by a Project manager supported by health officer who is an experience clinician and trained in clinical medicine and surgery. He will be responsible for the coordination and implementation of the project in addition to handling complicated cases at facility level. The teams will have qualified health professionals that will include qualified nurses, qualified midwives, auxiliary nurses, pharmacist, laboratory technicians, facility supervisors and health promoters. They will have a support team consisting of storekeeper and HMIS/data clerk. Each of the static/mobile teams will have a static/mobile tent and furniture (tables and chairs) that are collapsible and suitable for outreach services with an outreach van that will be hired and ensure the van hired have the capacity to carry both staffs and medical supplies. SFH will further ensure that a standby referral vehicle/ambulance is in place to enhance the referral cases. The static/mobile clinics will address the long distances to health facilities currently being traveled by women, men, boys and girls in IDP camps. Antepartum hemorrhage/postpartum hemorrhage remains the leading cause of maternal deaths—deaths that could be prevented through skilled midwifery services and the appropriate usage of drugs and medical commodities. ltbrgtlt/pgtltpgtChild deaths from conditions that should be preventable and manageable, such as measles, acute respiratory infections, are common especially in the IDP/ returnees’ camps and distant villages lacking access to health care services. SFH will equip the fixed facilities with basic essential commodities and equipment to provide quality primary health care service including vaccination, reproductive health care services, basic essential obstetric care including active management of third stage of labor and newborn and child health care services. ltbrgtlt/pgtltpgtAccess to skilled health care services remains problematic in remote villages. In most instances, the mobile teams within the community unit is the first service delivery point for beneficiaries. ltbrgtlt/pgtltpgtThese facilities are managed by CHWs/auxiliary nurses who are not fully fledged qualified health personnel, and who have not received much training, despite their direct and immediate contribution to life-saving health and nutrition interventions. ltbrgtImproved knowledge and skills on IMCI will enhance access to life-saving treatment at the community level and facilitate timely referral and linkage with the skilled health service delivery points. SFH will recruit 4 CHWs. HWs will be on the ground to provide much needed information and linkages with the advanced care. SFH will train Health staff on IMCI, BeMOnC PSEA/MHPSS to contribute towards a reduction in the mortality and morbidity caused by common ailments such as malaria, diarrhea diseases, pneumonia, and severe acute malnutrition among children 2-5 years. Urgent safe motherhood interventions can mean the difference between life and death for pregnant women and their newborns, and for other children and relatives under their care.ltbrgtlt/pgtltpgtChildren under 5 and PLW, who are at higher risk of contracting malaria, especially in the riverine villages, will be targeted with distribution of routine LLINs to be provided by MOH/UNICEF. The distribution of LLINs will align with the Ministry of Health (MoH) guidelines: pregnant mothers in their second trimester who attend antenatal care (ANC) and mothers who deliver at the Health facility will be provided with LLIN to protect mothers, their unborn children and their newborns from getting malaria.ltbrgtlt/pgt

Providing emergency life-saving access to safe, clean water, sanitation, and hygiene to climate shock affected communities in the rural areas of Baidoa district ltpgtltbrgtSomalia is still grappling with the aftermath of a severe drought that devastated the country from 2020 to mid-2023, followed by extensive El Niño-induced floods later in 2023. These disasters caused widespread displacement, infrastructure destruction, and disruption of basic services and livelihoods. The Multi-Sector Needs Assessment (MSNA) findings suggest that most households were relying on unimproved sanitation facilities (79%), and the majority had an issue with their sanitation facility (57%). More than 33%, of households reported latrines did not present basic structures, i.e. door, walls, and a lock.
The most commonly reported coping strategies were relying on communal sanitation facilities and open defecation which has both health and safety implications. Host community households were most likely to report open defecation as a coping strategy (41%), compared to displaced households which were more likely to report relying on communal sanitation facilities.
(MSNA December 2023). lt/pgtltpgtIn addition, according to READO Rapid Needs Assessment, there are limited latrines for people living with disabilities.The existing limited sanitation facilities are primarily accessible to the households that share them with the rest of the community members including people with disabilities facing significant challenges in accessing them. The respondents further noted households sharing the facilities also face challenges such as long waiting times often leading individuals to resort to open defecation. (READO Rapid Needs Assessment May 2024)lt/pgtltpgtltbrgtApproximately half (53%) of the households were. deemed water-insecure according to the water insecurity experiences scale (WISE) scoring, with a quarter of them indicating insufficient water availability. Furthermore, a substantial proportion (61%) of households were relying on unimproved water sources, indicating many households may face potential health risks due to the use of sources that do not meet recognized safety standards. (MSNA December 2023)lt/pgtltpgtltbrgtREADO proposes providing emergency safe, clean water, sanitation, and hygiene access to 20,500 affected individuals in Baidoa rural areas. This project will ensure urgent life-saving WASH assistance for communities affected by the drought. This will be done through construction of 95 flood proof latrines and 10 disability latrines, conduct 36 environmental campaigns, 42 hygiene promotion, distribution of hygiene kits (1750 HHs), and solid waste management in Baidoa rural areas. In addition, READO will provide sustainable access to clean water by rehabilitating strategic water points (3 shallow wells, 2 boreholes, and 3 water systems), improvement of existing water supply systems by conducting water treatment for 6 water points) and capacity building for water management committees. The following are the proposed target locations: Kormari -Ajuuran, Baad-caade, Shidle, Salbuuy, Ismoodnoy, Barhanoy, and Rebay. lt/pgtltpgtREADO is currently working in the rural areas of Baidoa and has a strong knowledge of the local context and developed a good rapport with the local administration and communities. READO hopes to build on this good rapport with the community to implement this project carefully in the ten months WASH project in Baidoa rural areas. Furthermore, this places READO in a position to respond quickly to the needs of the target locations. In addition, READO has the added advantage of being an LNGO, and it implements its activities using local staff who are well aware of Somalia's inherent situation and clan dynamics. READO will ensure community engagement in all phases of the project, particularly women's participation. READO will conduct a community sensitization session on the project's scope and the expected outcome.ltbrgtlt/pgt

Provision of lifesaving WASH services support to communities with high intersectoral severity of needs, that have experienced climatic shocks to mitigate further displacement of Baidoa rural ltpgtltspangtAccording to HNRP 2024 Somalia has achieved significant progress in recent years, especially in establishing political institutions and improving security. However, the country is still vulnerable to recurring climate-related hazards and the frequency of droughts, flash floods and riverine floods has increased in Somalia over the past 30 years, disrupting people’s livelihoods and the economy. Climate change – compounded with other factors such as poor adaptation, an economically vulnerable population, poor infrastructure, weak river embankments, and poor-quality soil are exacerbating the level of flood damage affecting local communities. In addition to drought, floods and conflict, other drivers of acute food insecurity and malnutrition in Somalia include high food prices and disease outbreaks. According to the Humanitarian Needs and Response Plan (HNRP), an estimated 6.9 million people, a reduction of 17 per cent from last year, will require humanitarian assistance in 2024.According to FSNAU latest report In Somalia, despite long-term humanitarian, development, and peace interventions, food insecurity has typically remained above Integrated Food Security Phase Classification (IPC)1 ‘Crisis’ levels (Phase 3+) over the last three decades. Based on the latest food security IPC analysis from January to March 2024, approximately 3.2 million people (17% of the population) are IPC Phase 3 (crisis) and around 800,000 people (4% of the population) are experiencing worse conditions – IPC Phase 4 (emergency). Between January and December 2024, a projected 1.7 million children aged 6–59 months face wasting, including 430,000 who are likely to be severely wasted. Overall, wasting prevalence has consistently exceeded the 15% emergency threshold for global acute malnutrition.lt/spangtltbrgtlt/pgtltpgtltbrgtGRRN proposed activities will respond to critical WASH gaps identified through provision of life-saving WASH intervention in Baidoa rurals villages.

The beneficiaries include 3,454 women, 4,138 girls, 3,318 men, and 4,138 boys.lt/spangtlt/pgtltpgtltspangtThe first project outputlt/spangt aims to improve access to emergency and sustainable water services for 2,084 crisis-affected IDP households, benefiting a total of 12,504 persons. This will be accomplished by rehabilitating water distribution infrastructure of 4 IDP sites. The rehabilitation will involve the installation of a 5,000L fiberglass tank on a constructed raised concrete platform. Additionally, a 100-meter 2" PVC water pipe will be installed to connect the tank to the nearest water distribution line. Furthermore, a tap-stand with 4 taps will be built to facilitate ease of water collection and reduce the time women and girls spend collecting water at the collection point. These infrastructure improvements will bring the water closer to the households, reducing crowding and distances to water collection points. In order to ensure sustainability, a training program will be implemented to empower 3 community volunteers and three water management committees to effectively manage the water supply infrastructure. Additionally, the project will provide water vouchers to 700 newly displaced households, enabling them to access water from the existing or installed communal water collection point. The duration of the provision of the water vouchers is 8 weeks. The second component of the project will provide life-saving health and hygiene promotion services to approximately 4,950 persons. This will be achieved by providing hygiene kits to 1100 newly displaced households and implementing community outreach health hygiene promotion activities to promote behavior and attitude change to prevent and control outbreaks of AWD/cholera, especially among pregnant women and children under 5 years. The last component of this project involves improving access to life-saving sanitation infrastructure and services for 424 households of internally displaced persons. This will benefit a total of 2,544 persons. Specifically, the project will construct 53 temporary pit latrines that are sensitive to the age, gender, PWD, and elderly individuals. These latrines, including 4 latrines located at the Weydow Health Centre, will be equipped with handwashing facilities to promote appropriate hygiene practices. In addition to the latrines, 424 households will receive portable solar lamps to ensure their safety during nighttime latrine use. The project will also organize cleanup campaigns in 3 IDP camps and the Weydow Health Centre. These projects will provide sanitation kits and training on solid waste management. As part of this effort, sanitation management committees will be established to conduct the campaigns.ltbrgtTo assess the impact of the project, baseline and end-project KAP surveys will be conducted. Continuous monitoring will also be implemented to ensure the quality of services and document successful practices and stories throughout the project's duration. NAPAD will establish an inclusive relief committee that includes minority groups, women, and youth. Furthermore, NAPAD will enhance community awareness of its CFM, including providing a toll-free reporting number. PSEA training of staff and contractors will also be provided to ensure the protection of vulnerable beneficiaries.ltbrgtlt/pgt

Provision of lifesaving primary health care services for communities affected by climatic shocks in Kismayu and Galkacyo (North) ltpgtDespite modest gain in food security situation, the 2024 Somalia HNRP indicates that 6.6 million people in Somalia need provision of emergency health interventions. According to the Somalia Federal MOH, significant rise has been reported in cases of AWD since January 2024 with major gap in accessing of health services. The proposed project is designed to increase access to inclusive primary health services, with the goal of preventing, responding to, and managing disease outbreaks, while also addressing key root causes. In this project, Save the Children proposes to deploy or support six health centers, one primary health unit and one mobile team. These resources will provide essential, life-saving health services to communities affected by crises in two districts - Kismayo and Galkacayo (North) - of the ten districts targeted by the allocation strategy. SC targets Gaalkacyo and Kismayo districts among the five districts with the highest numbers of people in need (PIN), including internally displaced persons (IDP), returnees and in hard-to-reach rural areas, with ‘severe’ and ‘extreme’ intersectoral could worsen without humanitarian support. In Kismayo district, SC proposes to operationalize one mobile health team, one health center and one primary health unit for the IDP camps and rural communities affected by crisis like flooding, armed conflict, and drought. In Gaalkacayo (North) district, Save the Children is proposing the support of 5 health centers for the people with the greatest needs among the crisis affected communities. Provision of life-saving primary health care services through fixed and mobile outreach services through the essential package of health services (EPHS) such as clinical care, child health care, immunization, communicable disease treatment, and emergency treatment, cholera/AWD treatment. The project will prioritize provision of life-saving primary healthcare services based on essential package of health services (EPHS) such as clinical care, child health care, routine immunization, communicable disease treatment, mental health and psychosocial support, emergency treatment, cholera/AWD treatment ,and sexual and reproductive health services (ANC, PNC, safe deliveries, newborn care dignity kits for pregnant mothers) to the most vulnerable among the affected communities with a focus on children and pregnant women in newly established sites for displaced people, newly recovered areas, and residents in rural and hard to reach areas in Kismayo and Galkacyo. The project will support provision of emergency reproductive health services such as MISP for underserved populations and will establish referral pathways for Gender Based violence (GBV), malnourished children, pregnant women with complication, and Mental Health and Psychosocial Support (MHPSS) linkages. The Prevention and response to outbreaks of diseases will be achieved by continuous social mobilization, education and advocacy using integrated community-based volunteers, early detection, and early treatment of infected patients. The project is designed to tackle gender-related challenges by gathering data segregated by sex and age. This data will be scrutinized to pinpoint disparities, implement interventions sensitive to gender issues, and guarantee the involvement and empowerment of women. The project will specifically focus on People Living with Disabilities, women, and minority groups to guarantee their access to services. The effectiveness of this focus will be evaluated through the collection of data disaggregated by disability, gender, and age at all stages. Measures will be put in place to protect beneficiaries during the access and use of services, with the aim of minimizing additional risks. Through trained and qualified staff, the project is estimated to directly reach 104,436 (21,332 male, 31702 female, 25743 boys, 25659 girls) vulnerable people with lifesaving primary health care services.ltbrgtlt/pgt

Provision of essential cooperation and information services on safety; security and access to humanitarian aid organizations in Somalia ltpgtltbrgtThe main purpose of the project is to assist NGOs in fulfilling their mandates through the provision of essential security coordination and information services that help them understand the operating environment and reduce the risks facing their staff and operations. INSO has been operating in Somalia since 2015. The underlying principle in INSO’s theory of change is that better information leads to better decisions. IF NGOs working in Somalia assisting conflict and disaster-affected populations have access to INSO safety and security services, THEN they would be able to have enhanced access to the vulnerable population BECAUSE NGOs will have better information on which to base decisions at tactical, operational, and strategic levels while delivering assistance. INSO runs a single project that is co-funded by 6 donors (including SHF) and all donors contribute to realization of the project’s objectives and attainment of deliverables. ltbrgtGiven the protracted security environment and the emerging uncertainties related to the ATMIS drawdown, the Somalia operating context may get even more complex, with varying layers of protracted armed conflict and acute/emerging contestation between multiple actors. NGOs face strong challenges related to access and security, including inadequate capacity to understand the dynamic context, difficulty in accessing and verifying information, lack of information sharing, lack of security coordination and harmonized security practices, poor security awareness of staff, and lack of training opportunities. ltbrgtTo address the needs/gaps mentioned above, INSO’s services comprising a Conflict and Humanitarian Data Centre (CHDC)—a secure cloud-based database containing all security incidents occurring in Somalia with integrated visualization and GIS tools—flash alert reporting, periodical analytical reporting and briefings, field-based NGO security roundtables, individual security advisories, training, and crisis management assistance— play an important role in establishing a baseline of credible information, delivering usable analysis on which to base programming and risk management decisions, and furnishing the skills and tools required to navigate the environment and deliver aid safely. This in turn promotes NGOs’ delivery of services to their beneficiaries and the fulfilment of their projects and programs. With the new funding cycle, INSO will strengthen its field presence and ensure greater responsiveness to NGO needs as the context and its challenges evolve. INSO’s activities currently benefit 179 humanitarian and development organization partners (including NGOs, Red Cross/Red Crescent movements, UN humanitarian agencies, and humanitarian donors). ltbrgtlt/pgt

Provision of lifesaving WASH services support to communities with high intersectoral severity of needs, that have experienced climatic shocks to mitigate further displacement in Galkayo district. ltpgtltspangtAccording to HNRP 2024 Somalia has achieved significant progress in recent years, especially in establishing political institutions and improving security. However, the country is still vulnerable to recurring climate-related hazards and the frequency of droughts, flash floods and riverine floods has increased in Somalia over the past 30 years, disrupting people’s livelihoods and the economy. Climate change – compounded with other factors such as poor adaptation, an economically vulnerable population, poor infrastructure, weak river embankments, and poor-quality soil are exacerbating the level of flood damage affecting local communities. In addition to drought, floods and conflict, other drivers of acute food insecurity and malnutrition in Somalia include high food prices and disease outbreaks. According to the Humanitarian Needs and Response Plan (HNRP), an estimated 6.9 million people, a reduction of 17 per cent from last year, will require humanitarian assistance in 2024.According to FSNAU latest report In Somalia, despite long-term humanitarian, development, and peace interventions, food insecurity has typically remained above Integrated Food Security Phase Classification (IPC)1 ‘Crisis’ levels (Phase 3+) over the last three decades. Based on the latest food security IPC analysis from January to March 2024, approximately 3.2 million people (17% of the population) are IPC Phase 3 (crisis) and around 800,000 people (4% of the population) are experiencing worse conditions – IPC Phase 4 (emergency). Between January and December 2024, a projected 1.7 million children aged 6–59 months face wasting, including 430,000 who are likely to be severely wasted. Overall, wasting prevalence has consistently exceeded the 15% emergency threshold for global acute malnutrition.lt/spangtlt/pgtltpgtFOO will therefore respond to these augmented risks and crisis through provision of life-saving WASH intervention in Galkayo in Mudug region of Somalia. Through this intervention, FOO will reach a total of 2,083 households (12,500 individuals) in the proposed areas. In order to create synergies and ensure sequencing, layering and integrating of programming, FOO will complement the proposed intervention with its livelihood, Protection and health sectors programme in the targeted sites and will work closely with health and Nutrition partners in the area such IMC, Horsed, PAH, Mercy -USA among others.

Provide lifesaving nutrition support to communities in Baidoa rural arrears affected by climatic shocks which have resulted to severe nutrition gaps and displacements ltpgtSomalia is yet to fully recover from the effects of a devastating drought that ravaged the country between 2020 to mid-2023 followed by El Nino - induced extensive floods in the latter part of the year causing massive displacement, destruction of infrastructure, and disruption of basic services and livelihoods. This particularly affected financially strapped households in a worse situation than they were especially rural communities and displaced persons. The 2024 Somalia Humanitarian Needs and Response Plan (HNRP) indicates that 6.9 million people will require humanitarian assistance in 2024. Further, the levels of deprivation will remain ‘severe’ and ‘extreme’ in most parts of Somalia largely due to climatic shocks, high disease burden, inadequate access to safe water and critical sanitation services, and poor livelihood outcomes that preclude access to food and/or income to afford food. ltbrgtSAMA aims to address gaps primarily in the nutrition sector in rural areas of Baidoa district SWS. Target villages are Adable-Cade, Bula-Sagar, Geldheere, Ismoonoy, Ahmed Gurey, Horseed village, Jiiro-gurey, Kaariyah, October village, Raydabaale, and Waaberi. SAMA proposes this nutrition project to meet the gaps in the nutrition sector by establishing Two fixed centre and 3 mobile units so as to reach more people. ltbrgtDuring this 12 months SAMA will screen and admit persons with malnutrition for treatment to recovery. SAMA will also conduct awareness sessions at household and institutional level to address people’s knowledge, believes and practices that affect their health. This project will be implemented under the guidelines to ensure gender mainstreaming, prevention of sexual exploitation and abuse, protection, equality among others. ltbrgtlt/pgt

Provision of Anticipatory Multipurpose Cash Assistance for flood preparedness to vulnerable households in Luuq. ltpgtSomalia continues to face a multi-dimensional crisis shaped by conflict, drought, and climate shocks. According to the OCHA 2024 HNRP, 6.9 million people are in need of humanitarian assistance in Somalia. The effects of El Niño during the last Deyr season have impacted over 2.5M people in the country, resulting in the displacement of 1.2M people, loss of lives, damage to livelihoods, and a decrease in overall farm productivity, exacerbating the already critical situation in the country. ltbrgtAccording to FAO SWALIM projections, the El Niño phenomenon is expected to continue beyond Deyr season 2023, with up to 70 per cent probability of leading to above normal Gu rains in March and April 2024. This is expected to result in flash and riverine flood risks in the Greater Horn of Africa, including some parts of Somalia. With about 770,000 people likely to be affected, the anticipated above normal rains, inter-clan violence and insecurity are likely to generate a more severe humanitarian impact compared to risk projections made in early 2023. This includes loss of lives, a significant inflow of displaced people into urban and peri-urban areas, destruction of infrastructures and livelihoods, putting pressure on already stretched services, raising the need for food, water, sanitation, health, education, protection and livelihoods assistance. The floods will exacerbate the already dire humanitarian situation, particularly for riverine communities that continue to suffer from the impact of the El Niño floods in late 2023.ltbrgtAmong these communities, according to FAO SWALIM projections and in line with SHF strategy, one of the most affected areas during the Gu season will be Luuq district, in Gedo region of Somalia, where local communities are expected to be hardest hit by floodings also in remote and hard to reach areas. In line with the first SHF Anticipatory Action (AA) for 2024 and HNRP 2024, Acted proposes an anticipatory action to save lives and allow people to relocate or meet essential needs ahead of floods in Luuq, Gedo region. Acted will target 10 sites, including 7 IDP sites and 3 host communities in previously affected areas in Luuq, following the location priorities provided in the AA Strategy. In total 4000 households (24000 individuals, including 10 per cent of PwD), of which approximately 17937 will be IDPs and 6063 host community members, will be targeted through one round of multipurpose cash assistance (MPCA). ltbrgtThrough anticipatory cash assistance, Acted will help 4000 vulnerable HHs in Luuq to meet their basic needs and prepare to face the consequences of the projected floods, enhancing population’s resilience and diminishing the severe consequences of floods on local communities. This one-round of MPCA will enable vulnerable HHs to buy food, NFI kits, and shelter, mitigating the shock on their income and allowing them to plan ahead of the projected floods. Under this one-round of MPCA, each HH will receive 110 USD in line with CWG recommendations for 2023. Selection of HHs will be guided by vulnerability criteria and facilitated by Village Relief Committees (VRCs) and Camp Management Committees (CMCs), thus localizing the response. To understand beneficiary perceptions of the activity and to inform future programming, post-distribution monitoring will be conducted after the disbursement of this one-round of MPCA. In line with SHF IRF, Acted will coordinate with SHF partners in Luuq, Trocaire and Asep, to ensure a comprehensive and coordinated action, facilitating meetings and data sharing. Additionally, Acted will employ a comprehensive strategy to prevent aid diversion and ensure effective distribution, integrating strict documentation, real-time tracking of disbursements, and robust internal controls with regular staff capacity-building exercises. Taking into account the specific needs of vulnerable groups, Acted will fulfil protection, gender and disability mainstreaming considerations throughout the project cycle.ltbrgtlt/pgt

The pipeline to the 3 water kiosks will be extended from a nearby water supplying pipe belonging to a private water supply company. The project will reduce the distance to water in line with the WASH minimum standards by investing in a pipeline extension to 3 communal water kiosks. For community ownership and sustainability, together with the community a 25-member (15 women and 10 men) water source management committee will be identified and trained in basic operation, maintenance, troubleshooting, and orderly access to the water sources. To ensure quality of the water we will undertake initial tests and regular water treatment at the source (well chlorination), provide water filters at health and nutrition centers. In addition, INTERSOM will install 10,000 liters water storage tanks in two health and nutrition mobile team sites to ensure caregivers and children have access to clean and safe water. Access to proper sanitation facilities will be improved through the construction of 147 gender-segregated emergency latrines with handwashing stations in IDP settlements targeting 4410 individuals, 15% of the latrines being disabled-friendly. A high-mast solar light will be installed near the latrines to provide a safe environment for nighttime usage including reducing risk of GBV. From INTERSOM’s experience delivering emergency latrines, management thereof can be an impediment to utilization. INTERSOM propose an informal management system that should enhance clean and equitable utilization of the latrines. INTERSOM will keenly document how this will work and share any learnings. Provision of 40 sanitation tools will be undertaken upon completion of the sanitation facilities. INTERSOM will undertake KAP survey at the beginning of the project to inform the content and approaches to hygiene education and the composition of emergency hygiene kits. An end-line KAP survey will also be conducted to measure change in KAP. A refresher training of 15 community hygiene volunteers (10 women, 5 men) will be done to enhance their capacity to lead hygiene promotion. ltbrgtlt/pgt

Provision of emergency Life-saving water, sanitation and hygiene response to communities experienced climatic shocks in Galkayo North . ltpgtPMWDO proposes to scale up its WASH activities with immediate life-saving response to counter the high intersectoral severity of needs of communities that have experienced climatic shocks and to mitigate furtherdisplacement through emergency life-saving water, sanitation, and hygiene response in Galkayo North. The project target is to provide WASH services for up to 17,000 people in 5 IDPS and 1 village settlements. The proposed provision of life-saving water services will be through water trucking and rehabilitation of strategic borehole and install solar power and pumping system, and pipe networks to one (1) borehole in Gacma Falla settlement which has been proposed based on the groundwater source, strategic capacity to serve a large number of people . in this project PMWDO will construct 4 water kiosks in 2 IDPS (2 kiosk at each IDP )and will facilitate up to 4000m pipeline extension between the host community and IDPS to install sustainable water sources for IDPS . In the5 IDP PMWDO will construct 20 emergency latrines for new under-served IDP sites with response gaps and a huge influx of Elnino-displaced arriving at the settlements where 15% of facilities will be tailored to be accessible to People living with disabilities (PwDs). Mass hygiene promotion campaigns will be conducted in all the 5 IDP settlements and 1 village targeting up to 17,000 people. The campaigns will aim to sensitize the target beneficiaries on the preventive measures against water-related diseases including AWD/Cholera. The proposal furthermore plans to distribute hygiene kits which include standard MHM sets to 1700 HH to those displaced as a result of climatic shocks including pregnant and lactating mothers as well as MAM/SAM children. During the project duration, 20 sets of sanitation tools will also be distributed to support solid waste management, and garbage collection and to support the clean-up campaigns within Galkacyo North effected sites. To directly benefit 17,000 people from 5 IDP settlements and 1 village in Galkayo, PMWDO plans to provide the WASH services for a period of 10 months targeting the following sites: ltbrgt Samawade1,Bakool sare , kulmiye garsoor, Tawakal , Margaaga and Gacma Falla Village. ltbrgtlast year Somalia is faced El Nino-induced flooding, affecting about 1.7 million people in 32 districts.Gu season rains, climatic forecasts that indicated a 55-65% likelihood of above average rainfall between March and May.With the likelihood of above average rainfall in the Gu season, and dry spell thereafter with prospects of La Nina later in the year. An assessment conducted by PMWDO confirmed that the targeted rural communities and IDP are living very precariously with very limited access to safe water and rely on unsafe water from shallow wells. Moreover, their purchasing powers are completely eroded and they cannot afford to buy water from private water vendors, as such the affected women and young girls end up covering long distances beyond safety of their homes and camps to access water from community water points and queue for for long hours beyond cluster standards. ltbrgtThe risk of waterborne disease outbreaks and other health hazards is expected to increase due to contamination of water sources and prolonged exposure of people to stagnant water.IDPs are particularly vulnerable because they live in congested settlements and lack access to adequate water and sanitation. . The project will add on to the integrated emergency response.lt/pgt

- **Composantes du programme : « Voix des citoyenNEs »**_ ; _**« Redevabilité et lutte contre l’impunité »**_ et _**« Valorisation des potentialités économiques »** ++**Bref aperçu du contexte du programme**++
De 2012 à 2020, avec le soutien du Programme de participation citoyenne aux politiques au Bénin (PartiCiP I & II, soutenu par l’Ambassade Royale des Pays-Bas) et du Programme Redevabilité (Coopération Suisse), le mécanisme des Cellules de participation citoyenne (CPC) s’est étendu dans les 77 communes du Bénin et s’est imposé comme le premier mécanisme de veille citoyenne reconnu et sollicité par les communes. Grâce à ce mécanisme, ALCRER et SOCIAL WATCH ont fortement contribué, à la fourniture des services sociaux de base (eau, assainissement, santé, éducation, équipements marchands, transport rural, etc.). Elles ont également contribué au renforcement de l’exercice de la démocratie à la base en développant des outils de gestion participative de la cité (l’audience publique de reddition de comptes, le budget participatif, l’évaluation citoyenne ou communautaire des politiques publiques locales, etc.).
De même au niveau national, les OSC ont amélioré leur contribution au processus budgétaire, à l’élaboration, à la mise en œuvre et à l’évaluation des politiques publiques en faisant émerger les priorités des populations, en rendant publiques leurs positions sur la gouvernance publique et en dénonçant les mauvais gestionnaires à travers, entre autres, la participation aux revues sectorielles, la conduite d’activités de plaidoyer et une lutte acharnée contre la mauvaise gestion, la corruption et l’impunité.
Tout cet activisme citoyen aux niveaux national et local et les acquis liés aux changements structurels ont contribué à instaurer les conditions d’une amélioration de la gouvernance à la base, un enjeu majeur de la décentralisation béninoise.
Sur l’autre enjeu de la décentralisation qu’est le développement économique local, les communes, alors qu’elles regorgent de nombreuses potentialités, n’ont pas réussi, en quatre mandatures locales, à développer des stratégies de maîtrise et de valorisation de ces potentialités en vue de la promotion de l’économie locale, gage de création de richesses, d’emplois et d’une bonne prise en charge des besoins des populations en termes de mise en place de services publics locaux résilients.
En général, les communes affichent une méconnaissance du potentiel de l’activité économique sur leur territoire et une valorisation insuffisante de l’économie locale. Selon une étude du Programme d'appui aux collectivités territoriales (PACTE), 83% ne disposent pas d’une étude sur les potentialités économiques et les filières porteuses sur leur territoire. 66% d’entre elles n’ont pas réalisé un inventaire des opérateurs économiques installés sur leur territoire. Les élus locaux n’ont une connaissance de l’estimation de la valeur de l’activité économique de leur territoire que dans seulement 14,5% des communes.
Après avoir relevé le défi de la légitimité d’une gouvernance participative, les OSC engagées dans le programme PartiCiP, tout en travaillant sur l’impératif participatif, veulent investir les domaines structurants du développement économique local. Cette nouvelle orientation se justifie d’autant plus qu’elle s’inscrit dans la réalisation de l’objectif stratégique 3 de la PONADEC (Politique nationale de déconcentration et de décentralisation) qui vise à « promouvoir des territoires attractifs, compétitifs, inclusifs, sécurisés et solidaires ». La prise en charge du développement économique local est pertinente dans la mesure où le gouvernement a adopté en 2017 un agenda spatial sur 15 ans destiné, entre autres, à « renforcer l’attractivité et la compétitivité des territoires » en donnant « plus de visibilité aux politiques sectorielles » et en offrant un « cadre de référence et de mise en cohérence spatiale ». Cet instrument a défini six (06) pôles régionaux de développement et a mis en exergue, pour chaque pôle, ses vocations territoriales (plateforme de services, de transformation, de distribution des produits, agro-industrielle, commerciale, touristique, minière, piscicole, etc.).
La mise en œuvre d’une troisième phase de PartiCiP est destinée à travailler sur l’ensemble des enjeux de la décentralisation en portant une attention sur le développement local qui bénéficiera des acquis de la démocratie participative et de l’amélioration de la gouvernance. En effet, Le programme de participation citoyenne aux politiques publiques pour le développement économique locale au Bénin (PartiCiP au DEL), acté le 8 octobre 2021, entend mettre les acquis liés à l’exercice de la démocratie à la base au service de l’autre enjeu de la décentralisation qu’est le développement local. # ++**Durabilité institutionnelle et socio-économique du programme**++
La gouvernance inclusive ne connait pas un seul porteur, elle est constituée de la dynamique de plusieurs acteurs maitrisant l’offre et la demande de la gouvernance. La durabilité est au cœur de cette action par l’accompagnement simultané aussi bien de l’offre (décideurs, communes) que de la demande/redevabilité (OSC) de la gouvernance inclusive au niveau local, puisque seule la convergence d’application des approches de gouvernance inclusive par les deux forces permet l’ancrage durable de ces approches dans les pratiques locales et les résultats conséquents. Ainsi, comme la gouvernance, le développement économique locale est avant tout un domaine qui prospère par la coopération multi-acteurs et constitue donc le terreau idéal pour éprouver et montrer la valeur ajoutée des procédures inclusives vers les résultats plus percutants. L’action est donc conçue de manière à avoir un impact durable sur plusieurs niveaux.
Ø _**Durabilité institutionnelle**_
Sur le plan institutionnel, l’action vise à l’institutionnalisation des approches de gouvernance inclusive dans le développement économique local du côté de l’offre et de la demande. Le renforcement des capacités individuelles, organisationnelles et institutionnelles des communes et OSC conduira à un cadre règlementaire et politique plus favorable au DEL inclusif, par exemple, par l’adoption des divers documents stratégiques communaux (PDL, PAD, PAI, PDS) en réponse aux demandes de la communauté, la mise en place des forums DEL pour les consultations régulières, et la mise en route des initiatives DEL à la contribution des différents fonds disponibles au niveau national (FNDA par exemple). La clé de la durabilité institutionnelle est le choix pour l’approche de « l’apprentissage par la pratique » avec un accompagnement aux communes et OSC dans toutes les étapes du cycle de gouvernance en combinaison avec la mise en route des initiatives concrètes.
Tandis que l’approche est expérimentée d’abord avec des territoires de développement contenant quelques communes, les bonnes pratiques seront mises à l’échelle pour une couverture nationale avec l’implication de l’ANCB et des associations régionales ou départementales. Un rôle clé sera également donné à ces deux dernières structures pour nourrir le dialogue national pour un cadre législatif/règlementaire adéquat suite aux expériences. La portée de l’initiative dans certaines communes pourrait ou même devrait amener à détacher un cadre/division au sein de l’administration locale qui sera en charge des questions économiques. Jusque-là, les communes sont enfermées dans leur carcan de fourniture de service administratif aux populations perdant ainsi toute vue sur la promotion de l’économie locale. Le projet pourrait induire un changement sur ce plan.
Ø _**Durabilité économique**_
Promouvoir le DEL et une croissance économique inclusive grâce à la gouvernance inclusive et transparente est la pierre angulaire de l'action. Notre action contribuera à créer un climat plus propice au développement des (petites et micro) entreprises, aux moyens de subsistance locaux, à la création de l'emploi et à la génération de revenus locaux à travers la valorisation des potentialités économiques locales. Par l’appui à la convergence des initiatives et une meilleure coopération entre les membres du « hélix multiple » (OSC, entreprise, enseignement, gouvernement), plus d’initiatives d’entreprenariat seront mises en route. Un œil particulier sera accordé à faire correspondre les chaînes de valeurs existantes et potentielles, aux initiatives d’entreprenariat et spécificités de main-d’œuvre des populations, ainsi qu’aux spécificités du territoire de développement. Les initiatives concrètes des initiatives pilotes serviront d’inspiration pour la phase de mise à l’échelle afin d’être répliquées dans les autres pôles régionaux de développement.
Ø _**Durabilité sociale**_
L’action aura un effet direct sur l’accès égal de chacun et chacune aux droits, services et opportunités DEL dans les communes béninoises. En travaillant avec les communes et les OSC sur la participation inclusive dans la gouvernance locale (par exemple, le renforcement des capacités pour la planification participative dans chaque étape du cycle de la gouvernance, la sensibilisation de la population, la communication transparente, la redevabilité), les politiques adoptées répondent mieux aux besoins locaux, tels que l’accès à l’emploi et les conditions favorables au développement des (petites et micro) entreprises. L’action mettra un accent particulier sur la facilitation des initiatives d’entreprenariat des femmes et des jeunes, afin d’accroitre leur développement humain et socio-économique au sein de la communauté. ++**Objectifs du programme**++
Le programme de participation citoyenne aux politiques publiques pour le développement économique locale au Bénin (PartiCiP au DEL) a pour objectif général de contribuer à promouvoir un développement local accéléré soutenu par une gouvernance transparente et inclusive.
De façon spécifique, il vise à :
- Consolider la présence des OSC dans les instances de prises de décision.
- Améliorer la redevabilité financière à travers la production complète des comptes de gestion des communes, leur apurement par la juridiction financière et le renforcement de l’accessibilité des citoyens aux informations financières dans les collectivités locales.
- Accroître la mobilisation des ressources financières locales, l’emploi et les revenus des jeunes et des femmes à travers la valorisation des potentialités économiques dans la planification et la programmation du développement communal. ++**Groupes cibles**++
Le programme bénéficie principalement aux :
- jeunes, aux femmes intervenant dans l’économie locale
- Organisations de la société civile opérant dans le domaine de la gouvernance

The Road Back Home Community Reconciliation and Reintegration of Iraqis Returning from Syria’s Al-Hol camp” (CRRISA) The overall objective of this project is to support the Government of Iraq (GoI) to address the reintegration needs of 9,000 Iraqi nationals, including women and girls and women with disabilities returning from Al Hol Camp. To ensure conflict sensitivity the project will also support an additional 9,000 vulnerable (40% female) beneficiaries in communities of return. This will be achieved through multisectoral, community-based reintegration and reconciliation implemented in partnership with the Government of Iraq (GoI). It will support Government efforts to strengthen social cohesion, community stability and ensure the institutionalization of best practices. The project will provide age and gender sensitive reintegration initiatives to address livelihoods, mental health and psychosocial support, housing, and community dividends, including basic services for the broader community. It will ensure inclusivity as returnees and community members will participate and engage in the identification of priorities, planning and implementation to enhance social sustainability and community resilience. To strengthen social cohesion and community acceptance of the returnees as well as underlining the societal importance of the reintegration process, the project will support the GoI to develop a national communications strategy targeting the wider Iraqi public as well as returnees. The project will work with the established administrative and community structures, including local peace committees, CSO networks (including women-led civil society organisations), women and youth groups, media, and religious leaders.

Engagement Facility\Governance and Economic. Aid effectiveness and coordination are a priority to enable Iraq in addressing today’s complex challenges and achieving its 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development Goals. In addition, sustaining support for these development challenges requires mobilizing additional development resources beyond the current level of aid flows and more external development finance on-budget, which needs to be effectively managed.Additionally , Digital transformation, innovation, and sustainable development are key strategic areas for long-term socioeconomic change and recovery from the COVID-19-related socioeconomic crisis. In recent years, the rise of innovative digital technologies and smart cities has been re-shaping virtually every sector and aspect of daily life and changing the way people learn, work, trade, socialize, and access public and private services and information. The COVID-19 pandemic has accelerated these trends. The rise of digital technologies and the concept of smart cities (Like the efforts being done in Karbala to transform it to a smart city) offer a unique opportunity for a country like Iraq to accelerate socioeconomic transformation in terms of the creation of jobs for youth, sustain economic growth, and enhance governance and public service delivery.Taking into consideration the importance of the role that the General Secretariat of the Council of Ministers (COMSec), which is the focal point between the Council of Ministers (COM) and all governmental and non- governmental bodies, and in harmony with its responsibility to submit the needed legal, administrative and technical support to the (COM), COMSec intends to develop its new strategic plan for the period (2024-2028) to accelerate towards excellence on the principals of strategic management and learn from the international comparative experiences

Enhancing life-saving and life sustaining response to acute needs of vulnerable people in Syria The proposed action aims at enhancing lifesaving and life sustaining responses to the acute needs of vulnerable people left unaddressed due to significant destruction and limited humanitarian capacities in Eastern Ghouta, Hama, Dara’a. The intervention will consolidate the results achieved during the 2019 ECHO project and extend the response to newly accessible areas affected by the disruption of basic services and population displacements, namely Northern Hama. The proposed response has been designed in line with TGH 2019 strategy as a multi-sector and integrated intervention. Structured according to a documented needs assessment, the action aims at addressing the needs of people in terms of WASH, EiE and Child Protection. Protection mainstreaming will be ensured, guaranteeing a meaningful access and a sound accountability, further fostered by the proposed community-based approach and protection risk analysis and mitigation measures in every step of the project (see Annex 13: Risk Analysis) In terms of WASH, TGH action is based on a strategy which combines emergency response and exit strategy i.e. from water trucking services to installation of durable systems. WASH life-saving needs will be addressed through a FLER component that will be triggered in response to new emergency needs. ECHO’s priorities in EiE will be endorsed by TGH focusing on NFE and PSS, reintegration of OoS children, and community-based activities. The response will address both urgent and medium- term needs which is required to provide people safe and dignified living conditions during their displacement as well as in the frame of a permanent return.

ZIMBABWE DISASTER RAPID RESPONSE MECHANISM Zimbabwe's current disaster response initiatives are focused on slow-onset, protracted emergencies. Ineffective national civil protection structures are further compounded by a fragmented development sector with no clear joint response plan which has in the past resulted in inefficient response. No mechanisms exist to mobilise immediate life-saving support for localised disasters, such as floods or storm damage. With no clear mandate for duty bearers to declare a local disaster and traditional response frameworks slow to respond, many disasters go undeclared. With the entire country currently affected by concurrent food security and economic crises, these additional `crisis within a crisis' scenarios can result in devastating loss of life and livelihoods. Led by CARE, in consortium with DanChurchAid and Plan International, this action will establish a Rapid Response Management Unit (RRMU) that will lead a comprehensive rapid response framework for rapid onset emergencies in Zimbabwe. Specifically the action will: (1) Proactively lead national response and coordination capacity building activities, including Education in Emergencies (EiE) and protection, prioritising high risk areas, for effective response during disasters; and (2) establish a disaster rapid response mechanism that will provide direct funding for immediate, life-saving response to small-scale localised disasters, bridging the gap between disaster impact and the current delay or absence of formal response; this system will be activated immediately to provide multi-sector assistance (multipurpose cash transfer) to priority vulnerable at-risk communities not currently covered by any ongoing response.

Strengthening Local Governance to Improve GBV Response (Masiphephe) (South Africa): .USAID/South Africa will continue to support the Strengthening Local Governance to Improve Gender Based Violence (GBV) Response (Masiphephe Network) activity that strengthens the capacity of South African entities to lead, coordinate, and manage a local governance and community response to gender-based violence prevention and mitigation. The activity will result in a reduction of vulnerability to GBV risks and improved mitigation of the effects of GBV in communities. The activity focuses on four districts (City of Johannesburg, eThekwini, Nkangala, and Ehlanzeni) to maximize impact. With FY 2020 resources, USAID will support implementation of the Government of South Africa's White Paper on Safety and Security and the National Strategic Plan on GBV and Femicide (2020-2030). USAID will also improve the effectiveness of a collective and coordinated approach between state and non-state actors in promoting safety through the existing Local Safety Forums and GBV coordination forums. USAID will implement structured interventions for high-risk population segments, including men and boys. These interventions include multi-session programs such as Stepping Stones, Sonke Change Trial, Brothers for Life, and Zazi clubs, as well as in-school students' clubs. USAID will also collaborate closely with the Department of Social Development as well as its GBV National Command Centre, in strengthening referral systems. The activity will also support the National Prosecuting Authority and other relevant national government departments to address gaps in multi-disciplinary and multi-sectoral in-service training. Finally, this activity will also provide support for assessments and technical assistance at a national level to address gaps between national policies and strategies and the implementation thereof..

Voluntary Medical Male Circumcision (VMMC) Service Delivery III Project (Siyasoka) URC manages the Voluntary Medical Male Circumcision (VMMC) Service Delivery III Project (Siyasoka) to scale up VMMC services in South Africa. The purpose of this activity is to provide direct service delivery to support high quality, high volume VMMC and related services in rural and urban areas of the country. Siyasoka draws upon the experience of the previous VMMC I and II projects, managed by the Right To Care Consortium in South Africa, and builds on URC's experience in implementing continuous quality mprovement in VMMC services in over eight countries since 2012. Working at fixed, outreach, and mobile VMMC sites in rural and urban priority districts, the Siyasoka project aims to reach 80% coverage of the target population in order to prevent new HIV infections. We will also work to coordinate the forecasting, procurement, quality assurance, distribution, and storage of VMMC surgical kits and commodities. In addition to providing direct service delivery throughout the country, the project will also support the transition of direct VMMC service delivery to the South Africa Government National Department of Health (NDOH).

Promoting Knowledge of Accountable Systems in Bangladesh (PROKAS) The Promoting Knowledge for Accountable Systems (PROKAS) programme is a DFID-funded programme managed by The British Council, and its consortium partners the Palladium Group and WISE Development. In Bangla, Prokas means disclose / to express. PROKAS is an innovative fund that will support civil society, private sector and government partners to improve accountability and transparency and to reduce corruption in targeted thematic areas in Bangladesh. It is part of DFID’s Transparency and Right to Information Programme (TRIP). PROKAS will provide grant funding to coalitions of civil society and private sector partners working together on issue-based projects to promote accountability and transparency. Funded activities can include research, media investigations, outreach and advocacy as well as supporting local partners with mentoring and leadership skills, research, relevant experience from other countries, and activities to promote an informed local debate. It will also support capacity building with government to enable them to improve their transparency and accountability. PROKAS features detailed high quality political economy analysis of opportunities and constraints relating to different potential issues and supports issue-based coalitions with common interests which can use their political intelligence to maximise opportunities for change. It will be a flexible and adaptive fund which will identify and fund issue-based initiatives as they emerge and are in line with agreed criteria. Broad-based collective action involves the mobilisation of different groups around shared interests, and is a key way of enhancing the voices of women and vulnerable groups, and addressing gender inequality and social exclusion. PROKAS’ political economy analysis will focus on identifying opportunities (and constraints) for collective action on gender and social inclusion issues, and building issue-based coalitions around these. The programme recognizes the risk that collective action groups and community engagement structures can often exclude certain groups and organisations, and will thus pay attention to providing spaces for them to discuss ideas and develop relationships; building their capacity to engage with others; supporting social movements to engage with government; and supporting campaigning and advocacy on discriminatory policies and practices. PROKAS will also work with government officials and institutions to sensitise them on the needs of women and excluded groups, and to build their capacity to listen to, and integrate their needs into planning and decision-making.

South Asia Gender Initiative The South Asia Gender Initiative aims to assist the region in meeting its Millennium Development Goals targets on gender equality and empowerment of women through supporting strategic analytical work on gender, financing the preparation and supervision of stand-alone projects, and monitoring and evaluating gender related interventions. The initiative will engage in: improving women’s labour force participation rates; closing gender gaps in school enrolment; improving reproductive and maternal health; and reducing early pregnancy and marriage. The approach to scaling up work aimed at promoting gender equalities and empowering women in South Asia would be three pronged: 1) support analytical work to push forward the thinking and approaches to redressing gender issues in the region, including working with the World bank to ensure that there is uptake of research/knowledge products and putting in place a good M&E system to measure impact on policy and institutional change; 2) finance str

L'engagement citoyen communautaire pour favoriser la participation des enfants et des femmes au développement de leur communauté Les enfants et les jeunes, les filles et les femmes, évoluent dans un environnement qui les rend capables de participer significativement à leur propre développement et à l’auto-détermination de leur communauté. L’objectif du programme est que les enfants et les jeunes, les filles et les femmes, évoluent dans un environnement qui les rend capables de participer significativement au développement et à l’auto-détermination de leur communauté. La stratégie pour y arriver repose sur le renforcement de communautés engagées (CE) et de clubs de jeunes présents dans 8 sections communales de Jacmel, dans le département du SE.
Les CE sont des tables de concertation communautaire rassemblant des associations religieuses, de femmes, paysan.ne.s, commerçant.e.s, des écoles et des leaders d’opinion et politiques autour du respect des droits des enfants et des femmes. Ensemble, avec les clubs de jeunes actifs à leur côté, ils élaborent et mettent en œuvre leurs plans d’action communautaires favorisant l’accès aux droits fondamentaux des enfants et des femmes, (alimentation, éducation, santé) et leur résilience face à un Etat déliquescent (pas de routes, pas de centres de santé, pas d’écoles de qualité…)....(+5 characters extra in FundHub text) Enfants et jeunes des rues ou en situation de rue (EDR/ESDR)

Chaque EJDIDA (Enfants et Jeunes D'Ici et D'Ailleurs) (fille, garçon, autre) évolue dans un environnement sociétal respectueux de son Droit à la Participation (DP) où il·elle s’engage de manière citoyenne (EC) Chaque enfant et jeune d’ici et d’ailleurs, nommé EJDIDA (fille, garçon, autre) évolue dans un environnement sociétal respectueux de son DP dans lequel il•elle peut s’engager de manière citoyenne (EC). L’objectif du programme est que chaque Enfant et Jeune D’Ici et D’Ailleurs, nommé EJDIDA, évolue dans un environnement qui le•la rend capable de participer activement à son développement et à celui de sa société (local/global). Notre stratégie est de créer les conditions favorables au Droit à la Participation (DP) et à l’Engagement Citoyen (EC) des EJDIDA en *renforçant leurs aptitudes et connaissances (pensée critique, droits et enjeux mondiaux), en *soutenant leurs mobilisations citoyennes (en faveur d’un monde plus juste, durable et inclusif) et en *sensibilisant et formant les adultes qui les entourent. Notre approche accorde une grande attention à l’interculturalité et à l’échange entre ici et ailleurs pour favoriser l’émergence de la paix et d’une vision engagée et interconnectée de la citoyenneté. Cette interaction fait émerger des questions sur la réalité de chacun•e, sur la manière dont la thématique citoyenne choisie le•la touche et la capacité de mobilisation citoyenne. De plus, notre intervention saisit les opportunités offertes par les outils médiatiques et digitaux d’augmenter la portée de notre action et la mise en réseau.
Nos activités sont construites sur base de cette stratégie d’intervention (développement de capacités, regard croisé ici et ailleurs et outils modernes): *Le Son D’Enfants (LSDE) Classic permet l’échange et la mise en action des EJDIDA par la réflexion sur soi et l’Autre, la réalisation d’une action citoyenne, l’interview de décideurs politiques et la réalisation d’une émission radio; *LSDE Podcast valorise et diffuse la parole et l’EC des EJDIDA plus largement; *Geomove.net facilite la mise en action, encourage la mise en réseau, familiarise aux ODD et fédère autour d’un projet digital; *Les formations des (futurs) enseignants sont désormais plus nombreuses et organisées en présentiel ou en visio; *Les échanges avec et entre nos partenaires locaux sont organisés via WhatsApp pour un partage d’expertise et de connaissances. Notre outcome s’adresse aux EJDIDA âgés entre 10 et 14 ans, avec une attention portée aux jeunes filles; excepté le projet Geomove qui vise plus largement les 6 à 26 ans.
Il cible également les adultes encadrant les EJDIDA et l’exercice de leurs droits: les Agents Éducatifs D’Ici et D’Ailleurs, nommés AEDIDA (les (futurs) enseignant.e.s, directions et équipes pédagogiques, éducateurs/trices et animateurs/trices), médias, décideurs politiques et parents.

Participation des enfants, des jeunes et des femmes de Comé à la construction d’une ville engagée pour l’équité filles garçons Les enfants et les jeunes de Comé en particulier les filles, évoluent dans un environnement qui les rend capables de participer à la construction d’une ville engagée pour l’équité filles-garçons. L'outcome vise à permettre aux enfants, aux jeunes filles/femmes en particulier de la ville de Comé d’être davantage acteur de leur propre développement, de celui de leur communauté et de contribuer à construire une ville engagée durablement pour l’équité filles/garçons.
La stratégie repose sur une double approche : a)le renforcement des bénéficiaires directs dans la connaissance de leurs droits et leur capacité à les revendiquer b)le changement de mentalités des autorités locales, leaders traditionnels et religieux, OSC, écoles et parents pour s’engager dans le respect des droits, de l’égalité des chances et de l’équité. Pour structurer cette approche, des sensibilisations, des formations et des rencontres entre les différents acteurs et les jeunes mèneront à la mise en place de Mécanismes de Protection Communautaire (MPC) dans la ville de Comé et dans 2 quartiers insécures pour les filles. Ces mécanismes permettront de réduire la violence, accroître la participation et la protection des enfants les plus vulnérables et des filles en particulier.
Le grand public sera touché par des sensibilisations régulières dans les points névralgiques de la ville et l’implication des organisations communautaires des base, 6 centres et écoles pilotes seront formés et déploieront des plans genre favorisant une éducation inclusive, participative, non violente pour les enfants et l’empowerment des filles (lutte contre les grossesses précoces et toute entrave à la scolarité et l’épanouissement des filles), et leur participation à des activités artistiques et sportives, leur orientation professionnelle et l'accès à un espace d’écoute.
Des jeunes filles mères et des femmes patronnes seront formées, encouragées, accompagnées et mises en réseau dans la recherche de débouchés et de création d’entreprises. Le programme renforce les OSC dans leurs capacités d’influencer les politiques publiques à tous les niveaux sur le respect des droits des enfants, des filles et des femmes.

Enhancement of the services of the quality infrastructure for the water sector in Nicaragua Verbesserung der qualitätssichernden Dienstleistungen für den Wassersektor in Nicaragua The services provided by Colombian QI institutions only partially meet these criteria, which in turn prevents the recognition of product testing and certification carried out in the country. This results in significant non-tariff barriers to trade for Colombian products and hinders their access to national, regional and international markets. The lack of competent and recognized quality services also dampens the capacity for innovation within these value chains. The project addresses this shortcoming and strengthens the technical competence of quality infrastructure institutions. At the same time, their capabilities are being further developed to offer services in a demand-oriented manner and to organize technology transfer. This is done mainly through consulting and training of personnel. In addition, cooperation between the responsible persons and institutions is to be promoted with the aim of creating a permanent national network for solving quality problems. Das 2007 verabschiedete Wassergesetz Nicaraguas regelt Schutz, Kontrolle und Administration der Wasserressourcen des Landes und definiert die Verantwortungsbereiche der beteiligten Institutionen. Eine Sektorstrategie wurde noch nicht vorgelegt, die bestehenden politischen Pläne und Programme lassen aber erkennen, dass die Verbesserung des Zugangs der Bevölkerung zur Trinkwasserver- und Abwasserentsorgung von hoher Bedeutung ist. Das Wassergesetz wird bis heute nicht effizient umgesetzt. Die Wahrnehmung der definierten staatlichen Funktionen wird durch Kompetenzüberschneidungen, häufige Wechsel auf Führungsebene, schlechte Personalausstattung, die Neuorganisation der Instanzen und unzureichende Infrastruktur der zuständigen Institutionen behindert. Dies schlägt sich auch in der Überwachung der Trinkwasserqualität und der Verbrauchsmessung von Trinkwasser nieder. Das zentralisierte staatliche Wasserversorgungsunternehmen (WVU) ENACAL ist verantwortlich für die Trinkwasserversorgung in urbanen und periurbanen Gebieten. Nur wenige der ENACAL-Niederlassungen verfügen über personell und infrastrukturell ausreichend ausgestattete Prüflabore für die Kontrolle der Wasserqualität. Noch gravierender ist die Situation in ländlichen Gebieten, wo die Versorgung über gemeinschaftlich organisierte Wasserkomitees (Comités de Agua Potable y Saneamiento, CAPS) oder von den kleinen Munizipien organisiert wird und wo zumeist keine regelmäßige Kontrolle der Wasserqualität stattfindet. Laboratories relevant to the water sector have improved the reliability of their consumption measurements and quality analyses of drinking water by using the services of the quality infrastructure. Die für den Wassersektor relevanten Labore haben die Zuverlässigkeit ihrer Verbrauchsmessungen und Qualitätsanalysen von Trinkwasser durch die Nutzung der Dienstleistungen der Qualitätsinfrastruktur verbessert.

Ziel der FZ-Maßnahme ist es, einen Beitrag zu einer kontinuierlichen, hygienisch und ökologisch ordnungsgemäßen und betriebswirtschaftlich effizienten Wasserver- und Abwasserentsorgung (WV/AE) in der Stadt Granada zu leisten (Projektziel/Modulziel). Übergeordnetes entwicklungspolitisches Ziel der FZ-Maßnahme ist es, auf Grundlage verbesserter Rahmenbedingungen für eine nachhaltige Bewirtschaftung der Wasserressourcen, den Zugang der Bevölkerung zu erschwinglichen und qualitativ angemessenen Trinkwasser- und Sanitärdienstleistungen nachhaltig zu verbessern (Oberziel/EZ-Programmziel). Zielgruppe der FZ-Maßnahme sind die rund 131.000 Einwohner der Stadt Granada im Jahr 2020.Hauptförderansatz. Die FZ-Maßnahme umfasst die Rehabilitierung und Erweiterung der Trinkwasserver- und Abwasserentsorgungssysteme (WV/AE) in Granada. Im Rahmen der investiven Maßnahmen (Hauptmaßnahme) werden folgende Baukomponenten finanziert: 1) Abwassernetz, 2) Abwasserklärung, 3) Trinkwassernetz. Über eine maßnahmenbegleitende personelle Unterstützungsmaßnahme (A+F-Maßnahme) soll der Projektträger in die Lage versetzt werden, die rehabilitierten bzw. erweiterten WV/AE-Systeme in wirtschaftlicher und technischer Hinsicht selbständig, effizient und nachhaltig zu betreiben. Begleitende Aufklärungs- und Sensibilisierungsmaßnahmen auf Ebene der Zielgruppe sollen dazu beitragen, das Bewusstsein der Bevölkerung im Hinblick auf die Grundlagen einer ökologisch und ökonomisch tragfähigen Wasserver- und Abwasserentsorgung zu stärken.Die Kosten für die investive Maßnahme (Hauptmaßnahme) belaufen sich auf umgerechnet rd. 33,8 Mio. EUR, die Kosten der personellen Unterstützungsmaßnahme (A+F-Maßnahme) betragen unverändert 0,9 Mio. EUR. Die Gesamtkosten (inkl. A+F-Maßnahme) werden zu 78% (27,2 Mio.
