Earthquake Emergency Response by restoring full access to humanitarian corridors, emergency rehabilitation of critical infrastructure, and supporting local technical committees for damage assessment ltpgtThrough the six months project at hand, Violet (VO) aims to scale up its contribution to the earthquake response through an integrated rubble removal and rehabilitation project that restores physical infrastructure and builds a starting point for recovering livelihoods. The project is designed based on the secondary data and the field teams' observation but also the coordination with the main actors in the field, including the civil defense, engineers' syndicates, and local councils in the targeted areas. through this project, VO plans to scale up the debris removal activities that have been started immediately by VO team after the earthquake in close coordination with the civil defense organization. Therefore, the project is designed with the following activities:ltbrgt1- Removing the debris and restoring full access to humanitarian assistance/corridors.ltbrgt2- Emergency rehabilitation of the damaged roads but also conducting the Emergency minor rehabilitation of most critical civilian infrastructures including but not limited to schools, health facilities, bakeries, vital markets through CFWltbrgt3- Support the Local Technical Committees (LTC) for the Structural Damage assessment. this activity was designed based on the consultation with the Engineers' syndicates. To support the LTC established, VO will provide transportation, Structural Damage assessment training, and necessary tools.ltbrgtThe 1st and 2nd activities will be achieved through the CFW modality and contracted service providers who will be responsible for the provision of heavy vehicles/ machines such as trucks, backhoes, compactors, tractors, and bulldozers to accelerate and ease the work.ltbrgtAs for CFW, VO plans to create Emergency employment opportunities for those who have been affected by the EQ and lost their source of income. To this end, VO will engage 550 CFW (500 skilled workers and 50 unskilled workers) in 3 of the Earthquake's most affected communities (Salqin, Harem, and Jandaires). CFW BNFS will work on the debris removal and necessary rehabilitation of the critical civilian infrastructure. In return, they will receive conditional unrestricted cash assistance (estimated at 100 USD per month for unskilled workers and 120 USD per month for skilled workers) for three months in return for their efforts. The cash assistance will be paid to the BNFs through a contracted FSP. Prior to the implementation and once the project BNFS are identified, the project team, in close coordination with Safety and security team and civil Defense, will conduct mandatory sessions for all BNFs regarding mines and safety and security during the implementation. Moreover, the BNFs will be equipped with the necessary safety items to ensure their protection during debris removal.ltbrgtAs for the 3rd activity, VO will support Structural Damage assessment through A) support to establish 4 LTCs in the targeted areas, B) providing Structural damage assessment training in close coordination with RedR Organization to the LTCs members, C) providing transportation to the LTCs and D) provide the necessary tools needed to assess the Structural Damage assessment. ltbrgtTo ensure quality and safe implementation, VO trained team will attend during the work and ensure the safety and quality of the implementation. The service providers will also perform the tasks under VO team supervision.ltbrgtDuring the implementation, VO will ensure the HLP is respected, VO will closely coordinate with project stakeholders, including the community representatives, local councils, and homeowners, and get their consent for removing and transporting the debris. Further, VO will invite them to attend during the debris removal whenever applicable, and the situation permits in terms of safety. Through cluster participation, VO will follow closely any new guidance.ltbrgtVO will ensure community ownership through active engagement of the community representatives, LTCs participation in all project phases as well as community contribution by resources. ltbrgtlt/pgt

Envelope 1: Empowering Vulnerable Communities for a Dignified Winter Season and Promoting Livelihoods Resilience through MPCA and CFW" ltpgtltbrgtSARD proposes a combination of ER at 60% and MPCA at 40% to create a robust response. The project places a strong emphasis on addressing winter challenges, preparedness, and rapid response. MPCA serves as immediate relief to meet essential needs and reduce negative coping strategies effectively. This project adopts a multifaceted, community-based approach to bridge the winter resource gap and promote resilience. It represents a continued commitment to SARD's ongoing investments in the Sarmada community within the Dana subdistrict, complementing its shelter project with a CVA component funded by WHH/ECHO.lt/pgtltpgtltbrgtLeveraging its existing MoU and presence in the Dana subdistrict, SARD is well-positioned for rapid implementation. The project's core objective is to mitigate winter-related hazards, diminish flood impacts, and invest in future winter preparedness. Also, directly delivering MPCA to the most vulnerable populations, the project respects their autonomy and empowers them to address their most pressing needs, whether related to food, shelter, healthcare, or education.lt/pgtltpgt ltbrgtSARD establishes a community committee to oversee and ensure active community participation and empowerment throughout all project phases, with a specific focus on leading community projects and organizing social cohesion events.ltbrgtDana remains a high-priority sub-district due to its persistently high needs, population density, and severe vulnerabilities. The choice of Samrada community as the project location is strategic, given its 150,000 population, primarily composed of IDPs. ltbrgtThrough a strategic blend of ER and MPCA interventions, the project aims to enhance resilience by improving access to livelihood support, infrastructure, and strengthen local economies. MPCA targeting prioritizes individuals with protection concerns, disabilities, and economic vulnerability, with referrals predominantly from Protection and Disability actors, including SARD's Child Protection case management programming.lt/pgtltpgtltbrgtThis project's formulation is based on the HNO/HNAP, SARD Needs Assessment, and consultations with ER and Education clusters, the CWG, community stakeholders, and local authorities. The project will directly benefit 8,248 HHs, equivalent to 41,240 individuals. Among these, 300 households (1,500 individuals) will directly benefit from MPCA. Additionally, it will indirectly impact 10,000 HHs (50,000 individuals). ltbgtThe project aligns with ER and CWG and SCHF recommendations, delivering activities as follows:lt/bgtlt/pgtltpgtltbrgtltbgtOutcome 1lt/bgt: The project focuses on repairing and enhancing the winter resilience of 3 schools, benefiting students, teachers, and the broader community. This includes improving conditions, weatherproofing, repairs, creating shaded areas, and enhancing safety on school premises. ltbrgtStrategic roads leading to two schools and one vital market road will undergo comprehensive repair and winter rehabilitation, including drainage points, light pole installation, and road repair using interlocking blocks. ltbrgt7 strategically positioned weather-friendly bus stops will provide shelter from adverse weather conditions, improving community mobility and accessibility. ltbrgtCreating 40 job opportunities linked with rehabilitation work.ltbrgtltbrgtlt/pgtltpgtltbgtOutcome 2:lt/bgt The project prioritizes 300 HHs (1,500 individuals) among the most vulnerable, particularly those facing food insecurity, protection issues, or disabilities. These households will receive cash assistance through e-cards for eight rounds, each amounting to $100. This substantial support enables households to meet their monthly needs, ensuring a sustained impact given the frequency of assistance over 8 months.lt/pgtltpgtltbrgtltbgtOutcome 3:lt/bgt CFW opportunities will be integrated with community-driven early recovery initiatives, aiming to boost community engagement, participation, and social cohesion. The local community committee will play a key role in leading community project and organising social cohesion events, with SARD offering support and facilitation. ltbrgtlt/pgt

Providing Child Protection and GBV Services in Northwest Syria to the Most Vulnerable Populations, including Persons with Disabilities. ltpgtltbrgtRelief International (RI), in partnership with SENED proposes a project that focuses on ensuring protection for the most vulnerable population groups through both Gender-Based Violence (GBV) and Child Protection (CP) interventions, while also prioritizing the inclusion of persons with disabilities. The project aims to address the needs of both internally displaced persons (IDPs) and the host community, particularly those affected by the earthquake and the newly displaced due to recent hostilities that unfolded in NWS in September and continued into October 2023. ltbrgtRI will support the existing WGSS and two GBV outreach teams in Darkoush to provide comprehensive GBV response, prevention and empowerment services, including GBV case management, referrals, Psychological First Aid, emergency funds under the GBV case management framework, and focused psychosocial support (PSS). Additionally, the project will conduct GBV information sessions and structured awareness-raising activities involving women and girls within the WGSS or through outreach activities. Men and adolescent boys will also be targeted through the outreach activities - awareness raising and PSS services - to enhance their engagement in GBV programming. RI will enforce comprehensive risk mitigation measures, prioritizing survivor confidentiality and avoiding stigmatization. The WGSS will be serving as social hub for women and girls to access services with trained staff ensuring a survivor-centered approach. RI will support the continuation of existing CP activities integrated within the WGSS and through two CP outreach teams. The CP activities will include CP case management for children under 12, CP interactive sessions, structured PSS for children under 12 and parenting skills, while CP emergency case funds will also be provided under the CP case management framework. RI will leverage WGSS to deliver the CP services tailored for children under 12 years, however, due to the limited space, children aged 12 years and above with CP concerns will be referred by the CP outreach team to external CP actors in the targeted area.ltbrgtTo strengthen support for children with disabilities and their caregivers, RI will partner with SENED to implement a focused PSS for them through a comprehensive special needs rehabilitation (SNR) program. SENED will deliver specialized services for children with disabilities, which seeks to improve their well-being whilst promoting inclusion within their communities and mitigating CP concerns in the future. Children with disabilities will be included in joint PSS sessions with their peers in the facility to enhance inclusion. Additionally, SENED will provide parenting skills to families with children with disabilities, aiding them in supporting their children, and enhance inclusion by training project staff to identify and refer children with disabilities to specialized services. Both SENED and RI will build community capacity by engaging frontline workers, particularly in health, protection and education, to improve awareness of CP and GBV concepts. RI will build capacity to address GBV and CP concerns safely, while SENED will complement this by training on inclusion.ltbrgtRI will establish community committees under the GBV components and CP to enhance community-based protection mechanisms. The GBV committees will be established under this project or identified as women-led organizations and will receive technical and financial support to carry out advocacy and activities dedicated to women and girls in their communities. ltbrgtThe same approach applies to CP committees, which will operate as community focal points advocating for CP concepts, child rights, and will identify and refer CP cases to available services.ltbrgtRI and SENED will prioritize staff support for both organizations, ensuring compliance with donor standards, monitoring and evaluation, financial support, and technical guidance for effective program oversight and implementation.ltbrgtlt/pgtltpgtlt/pgt

Protracted displacement response for 5,932 newly displaced people that cannot go back and strengthen response capacity in strategic reception centers for IDPs in NWS. ltpgtltbrgtMuzun for Humanitarian Development (MHD) presents this proposal with the aim of preserving lives, enhancing safety in Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) sites, and improving access to crucial institutions and services. This will be accomplished by implementing Camp Coordination and Camp Management (CCCM) activities in nine reception centers and camps located in the Idleb and Aleppo Governorates. This initiative takes into account the diverse needs of men, women, boys, girls, and individuals with disabilities in all project-related activities.ltbrgtMuzun for Humanitarian and Development has devised this proposal to benefit 5,932 recipients, including 1,427 women, and 1,167 households in Northwest Syria. These beneficiaries will be served across four sub-district and nine reception centers and camps, specifically Soame Shelter Center, Qastal Kshk RC , Aljabal RC , Kifaf 1 camp, Azaz Transit-Reception Centre , Azaz Center 2 , Central Azaz RC , Ayadi and Karnaz camps as outlined in Annex 1 and HLP documents annexed , all operating under the CCCM Cluster's activities.It's worth noting that prior to submitting this proposal under the 4th Reserve Allocation (RA), Muzun engaged in coordination with the CCCM Cluster to modify the prioritized locations in the Allocation paper and the adjustment was made because the initially prioritized locations in Allocation paper had been closed off by local authorities and the accomedated IDPs returned to home. Instead, the decision was made to focus on the proposed locations in this proposal,which are still accommodating new arrivals and have been identified as contingency Reception Centers (RCs) that are well-prepared , managed and equiped with essential facilities to serve as destinations for people in the event of future displacements.ltbrgtAccording to the latest CCCM Cluster update (Update 4-Annex 11), an upsurge in hostilities has resulted in an additional 123,000 newly displaced persons in Northwest Syria, leading them to seek refuge in communities, reception centers, and camps. Consequently, reception centers and IDPs sites have become their last resort.ltbrgtMuzun's primary objective under the 4th Reserve Allocation for 2023 is to primarily centers on CCCM activities in IDP sites that hosting newly arrivals, which encompass the following:ltbrgt1- Impalement site management activities in the targeted reception centers and IDP sites like ( IDPs reception , registration and profiling , information sharing and establish AAP mechanism in the targeted locations )ltbrgt2- Coordinate uninterrupted humanitarian aid supply to the targeted reception centers and IDP sites in collaboration with various active NGOsltbrgt3- Strengthen the basic infrastructure in the targeted RCs and IDP sites through establishment Fire points and fire prevention materialsltbrgt4-Care and Maintenance of Camp Facilities and Roads:ltbrgtRegular maintenance and post-natural disaster for 9 camps facilities and roads are fundamental components of this project.ltbrgtThe project adheres to CCCM guidelines and aligns with SPHERE standards, keeping in mind the objectives of the 4th reserve allocation. Moreover, Muzun will prioritize the needs of Persons with Disabilities (PwDs), women, and older adults by consulting with them throughout the project's implementation. This approach aims to facilitate their access to life-saving services, particularly in areas such as latrines, distribution points, and fire safety within the camps, thereby strengthening their sense of security and safety. Ultimately, Muzun's efforts will uphold humanitarian and protection principles among the beneficiaries in the targeted IDPs sites, with a particular focus on the "do no harm" principle.ltbrgtlt/pgt

PROG 2017-2021_Outcome_South Africa The overall objective of this five-year programme in South Africa is to reduce poverty and improve the livelihoods of entrepreneurs from historically disadvantaged communities. The Specific Objective of this five year programme is that 10 MBOs have been strengthened and contribute to a more inclusive economy as well as sustainable livelihood of small-scale entrepreneurs by creating a prosperous sector climate, respecting the environment and sustainable development principles. This programme aims to do so through assisting these entrepreneurs in overcoming the “growth trap” (failure of a business within the first year of operation) and building the capacity of MBOs who provide capacity building and support for entrepreneurs. To this aim, Trias will strengthen the capacity of ten MBOs: National African Federated Chamber of Commerce and Industry Chamber of Commerce (NAFCOC), George Business Chamber, West Coast Business Chamber, Maize Capital Chamber of Commerce, Zululand Chamber of Commerce and Industry, and the Greater Alexandra Chamber of Commerce and Industry. By the end of 2018, four additional chambers will have been researched and examined as potential new partners to join the programme from 2019 through to 2021. This capacity strengthening will focus on a) increased participation of empowered poor, women and youth in the organisation they are members of, b) an improved internal organisation of the MBOs that are partners of Trias, c) integrated service delivery of the MBOs towards their members and d) more efficient lobbying. Potential and early-stage entrepreneurs - the main target group - will be supported by their MBO through focused activities such as business skills training, business plan development, mentoring, facilitation to access credit, and increased representation of young and female entrepreneurs in the decision-making organs of their organisation. To improve internal communications between the MBOs and their members as well as among the member themselves, the programme will implement a data management system, followed by a Customer Relation Management System. During the first two years (2017 and 2018), the programme builds up gradually by fully complementing the existing PEERS (Partnership for Empowered Entrepreneurs’ Representation in South Africa) programme funded by the Flemish Government until December 2018. From 2019 to 2021, the programme builds further by scaling up of its best practices and lessons learned. Trias has begun scanning the entrepreneurial ecosystem in the country to identify the most appropriate MBOs to introduce into the programme from 2019, increasing the number of partners to 10 MBOs (from 2019 to 2021). 6,000 small scale entrepreneurs will directly benefit from this programme. 10 MBOs have been strengthened and contribute to a more inclusive, sustainable livelihood of small-scale entrepreneurs by creating a prosperous sector climate, respecting the environment. Our intermediary target group are the ‘direct key actors’ within our programme; being: the staff and leaders of the 1 MBOs, as well as all members having received training and/or credit. By the end of 2021 6 000 members will be directly reached of which 40% is female and 70% is youth. Our final beneficiaries are the members of the MBOs within our programme: organised small-scale entrepreneurs (SSE). The total number of members of our MBOs is 46,250 of which 15 % are women and 20 % is youth (baseline 2016).

RADIO EDUCATION PROMOTION OF LEARNING THROUGH RADIO IN ISOLATED AREAS OF PAKISTAN RADIO EDUCATION PROMOZIONE DELL'APPRENDIMENTO ATTRAVERSO LA RADIO NELLE AREE ISOLATE DEL PAKISTAN Conceived in collaboration with the Italian Agency for Development Cooperation (AICS) and the Pakistani Ministry of Education and Culture, following the COVID response, the project aims to improve access to schools, of communities and young people in remote areas of Pakistan by promoting better learning opportunities through an Interactive Radio Instruction (IRI) approach, which includes educational content of various kinds (topics related to nutrition, maternal and child health, children, culture, disability, environment, institutions, global citizenship, disaster risk reduction, etc.) and information on Pakistan's tangible and intangible cultural heritage. The project is aimed at children attending primary school (grades 1 to 5 in the Pakistani system), but also at their families and the community, of which they are part. Education is the focal sector, but other sectors such as culture, health and communication and information have also been integrated into the project implementation framework. The project responds to the needs in the education sector identified in the six most marginalised and isolated districts of Pakistan, which lack digital technology and access to television and radio distance learning programmes introduced by the Pakistani government during the COVID-19 pandemic. UNESCO has a geographical presence in the districts mentioned above, including the 6 districts proposed under the project, with local implementing partners (NGOs) who have been working with UNESCO since 2016 and have a grassroots presence and connections with local communities. in collaborazione con l'Agenzia Italiana per la Cooperazione allo Sviluppo (AICS) e con il Ministero dell'Istruzione e della Cultura pachistano, a seguito della risposta al COVID, il progetto mira a migliorare l'accesso alle scuole, delle comunità e dei giovani delle aree isolate del Pakistan promuovendo migliori opportunità di apprendimento attraverso un approccio di Interactive Radio Instruction (IRI), che comprende contenuti educativi di varia natura (tematiche relative al nutrizione, salute materno-infantile, minori, cultura, disabilità, ambiente, istituzioni, cittadinanza globale, riduzione del rischio di catastrofi, ecc.) e informazioni sul patrimonio culturale materiale e immateriale del Pakistan. Il progetto è rivolto ai bambini che frequentano la scuola primaria (dai gradi 1 a 5 del sistema pachistano), ma anche alle loro famiglie e alla comunità, di cui fanno parte. L’istruzione è il settore di riferimento, ma anche altri settori come la cultura, la salute e la comunicazione e l'informazione sono stati integrati nel quadro di attuazione del progetto. Il progetto risponde alle esigenze nel settore dell’istruzione identificate nei 6 distretti più emarginati e isolati del Pakistan, che mancano di tecnologia digitale e di accesso ai programmi, in televisione e alla radio, di apprendimento a distanza introdotti dal governo pakistano durante la pandemia dovuta al COVID-19. UNESCO è presente geograficamente nei distretti menzionati sopra, compresi i 6 distretti proposti nell'ambito del progetto, con partner esecutivi locali (ONG) che collaborano con l'UNESCO dal 2016 e hanno una presenza a livello di base e collegamenti con le comunità locali.

BELIEF (Well-being, Empowerment, Employment, Education, and Training) BELIEF (Benessere, Empowerment, Lavoro, Istruzione E Formazione) With the specific objective of "Enhancing the socio-economic inclusion of Christian-majority communities in the Punjab Province in an environment conducive to interreligious dialogue," the project aims to address the main challenges faced by Christian communities in Pakistan: a) Lack of adequate education offering better job and social opportunities. b) Limited knowledge of their labor and social rights, coupled with acceptance of the stigma relegating them to marginalized positions. c) Experiencing violence and social and workplace discrimination. The action will focus on the educational sector to improve the quality and increase education opportunities, both in formal education and vocational training, for young individuals, predominantly but not exclusively of Christian faith, residing in some of the main Christian communities in Punjab - Lahore city, Faisalabad city, and Sargodha city. These regions have significant concentrations of Christians, and there are existing Catholic organizations supported by religious orders based in Italy. The project will involve conservation restoration, procurement of furniture, teaching materials, and equipment for 2 schools in Faisalabad (La Salle schools) and 1 school in Sargodha (Marist school). It will also support the provision of vocational training courses for young people at the Don Bosco Training Center in Lahore. Considering the communities where these schools are located, which are particularly impoverished and lacking essential services, the project will provide training and services to the targeted communities. The social marginalization and stigma imposed on Christians, who largely belong to the "untouchable" caste, relegate them to low-wage, unprotected jobs. The majority of Christian women are engaged in informal domestic work, while men work in sanitation services (waste collection, cleaning in companies and hospitals, maintenance of sewage channels). In addition to low wages that do not allow for a dignified life for themselves and their families, there is a lack of access to essential social services and basic necessities like clean drinking water. To address these issues, in collaboration with the Pakistan Workers Federation, a long-standing partner of Iscos, the project will organize training sessions for adults selected from the most vulnerable families. These training sessions will focus on fundamental labor rights, especially in the sectors where they are predominantly employed, social rights, and maternal and child health and hygiene, especially for women. Upon completion of the courses, hygiene kits will be distributed to families, and the community will benefit from the installation of systems for the supply, filtration, and distribution of clean drinking water. Additionally, alongside training on social rights, support will be provided to help individuals enroll in social security, enabling them to access healthcare and pension benefits. The project will combat discrimination and social violence through support for interreligious dialogue at the community, provincial (Punjab), and national levels. In collaboration with religious organizations already involved in other project actions and other organizations actively addressing these issues in the region (such as the Capuchin and Dominican friars) and in line with the Pakistani Ministry for Interfaith Harmony, educational activities will be conducted in schools, cultural events open to the communities, and a series of seminars where prominent representatives of other religions, political decision-makers, and experts will be invited. Con l’obiettivo specifico di “Potenziare l’inclusione socioeconomica delle comunità a maggioranza cristiana della Provincia del Punjab in un ambiente più propizio al dialogo interreligioso”, il progetto intende intervenire sulle principali criticità vissute dalle comunità cristiane in Pakistan: a) carenza di educazione adeguata in grado di offrire migliori opportunità lavorative e sociali, b) scarsa conoscenza dei propri diritti lavorativi e sociali ed accettazione dello stigma che li relega in posizioni marginalizzate e c) subita violenza e discriminazione sociale e lavorativa. L’azione si svilupperà quindi nel settore educativo, con l’obiettivo di migliorare la qualità ed aumentare le opportunità di educazione, sia dal punto di vista dell’istruzione formale, sia per quanto riguarda la Formazione Professionale, ai giovani ed alle giovani, prevalentemente ma non unicamente di fede cristiana, residenti in alcune delle principali comunità cristiane del Punjab - città di Lahore, città di Faisalabad e città di Sargodha, dove la concentrazione di cittadini di fede cristiana è importante e dove operano da tempo organizzazioni cattoliche promosse e supportate da ordini religiosi con base in Italia. Da questo punto di vista, il progetto prevede quindi interventi di ristrutturazione conservativa, acquisto di arredi, materiali e strumentazione didattica per 2 scuole di Faisalabad (scuole La Salle) e per 1 scuola di Sarghoda (scuola Marista) e il supporto alla erogazione di corsi di formazione professionale diretti ai giovani presso il centro di Formazione Salesiano a Lahore. Facendo riferimento alle comunità dove insistono le scuole, particolarmente povere e prive di servizi essenziali, si prevede una azione di formazione e servizi alle comunità interessate. Come sarà meglio descritto successivamente, la marginalità e lo stigma sociale imposto ai cristiani, appartenenti in larghissima parte alla casta degli “intoccabili”, li relega in mansioni lavorative poco protette e con bassi salari, vedendoli quindi in larghissima parte occupati nei settori del lavoro domestico informale, soprattutto le donne, e nel settore dei servizi igienico-sanitari (raccolta rifiuti, servizi di pulizia in aziende ed ospedali, manutenzioni canali fognari) soprattutto gli uomini. Ai salari molto bassi che non consentono una vita dignitosa per sé e per le proprie famiglie, si aggiunge la carenza di accesso ai servizi sociali essenziali ed a servizi fondamentali come l’acqua potabile. Saranno quindi organizzate, in collaborazione con Il Pakistan Workers Federation, confederazione sindacale partner storica di Iscos, formazioni dirette agli adulti, selezionati tra le famiglie più bisognose, sui diritti fondamentali del lavoro, in particolare sui settori lavorativi dove sono più impiegati, sui diritti sociali e, soprattutto per le donne, su igiene e salute. Al termine dei corsi saranno consegnati kit igienici per le famiglie e, in favore di tutta la comunità, si prevede l’installazione di sistemi di approvvigionamento, filtraggio e distribuzione di acqua potabile. Inoltre, in affiancamento alla formazione sui diritti sociali, sarà fornito supporto all’ottenimento dell’iscrizione alla sicurezza sociale, consentendo di ottenere assistenza sanitaria e di accedere al trattamento pensionistico. Il contrasto alla discriminazione ed alla violenza sociale sarà perseguito tramite il supporto al Dialogo Interreligioso a livello comunitario, provinciale (Punjab) e nazionale. In collaborazione con le organizzazioni religiose già coinvolte in altre azioni di progetto e con altre attive da tempo sul territorio su queste tematiche (Frati Cappuccini e Domenicani) e in sintonia con il Ministero pakistano deputato (Interfaith Harmony), saranno realizzate attività educative nelle scuole, attività culturali aperte alle comunità ed un ciclo di attività seminariali a cui verranno invitati prominenti esponenti di altre fedi religiose, decisori politici ed esperti.

Civil unrest in Niger 2014: supporting affected populations Access to water, sanitation and primary health care in Niger is at a critical level. Accordingly, the Niger Red Cross assists affected populations with emergency health, water, sanitation and hygiene promotion, and food security, nutrition and livelihoods support. In July 2014, 800 people per week from northern Nigeria began arriving in Niger's Diffa region, fleeing growing civil unrest. As of December 2014, when Niger's Prime Minister declared a humanitarian emergency in the Diffa region, more than 100,000 displaced Nigerians were in the country. Host communities struggle to meet the needs of the displaced, and resources have been exhausted. To make matters worse, the region is experiencing a rainfall shortage, affecting farming and food security. In January and February 2015, further clashes caused spontaneous internal population movements. As of this time, humanitarian assistance in the Diffa region has been temporarily suspended do to security risks. This project assists those affected through providing access to safe and clean water, repairing sanitation infrastructures, training volunteers on hygiene and sanitation promotion and community based health and first aid, and distributing items to purify water in communities. To increase food security, food parcels are distributed to 25,000 people a month, and activities such as creating vegetable gardens and constructing cereal banks are planned to both increase food security and support livelihoods. This project seeks to assist 50,000 people, particularly the most vulnerable, including households with pregnant and lactating women, households with young children (e.g. under 5), women headed households, and households with dependent persons (e.g. people with disabilities, sick, elderly, poor health, etc.). The targeted populations are the displaced from the Lake Chad Islands, primarily consisting of Nigeriens and Nigerians who have been moved from these islands and spread amongst the Toumour and Yebi zones. The host populations in these zones are also targeted. This project take place in the Diffa region of Niger, in the Yebi and Toumour zones, and the Lake Chad Islands.

IFRC Appeal Yemen 2019 After unification of the southern and northern states of Yemen in 1990, the two societies were merged creating a
bigger NS with 12 branches and a headquarter s in Sana’a. Since then, the NS has been operating in different
conditions generally characterized by a process of stability with pockets of unrest and conflict in some parts of the
country. In mid-July 2005, Yemen witnessed a mass uprising triggered when the Government announced removal of
its subsidy on petroleum derivatives which resulted in an unprecedented massive increase in fuel prices (up to 100 %
rises in prices for diesel and benzene).
Yemen is prone to natural disasters (floods, earthquakes, and drought). Cycles of floods hit the country almost every
year. The preparedness level is weak at both national and community levels Yemen is prone to natural disasters (floods, earthquakes, and drought). Cycles of floods hit the country almost every

Families United Towards Resiliency (FUTURE) Supporting rural and urban poor communities impacted by Typhoon Odette (RAI) in Surigao At 11:00 AM of 12 December 2021, a Low-Pressure Area (LPA) outside the Philippine Area of Responsibility developed into a tropical depression. It was later categorized as a tropical storm with international name “Rai” (locally Odette). Typhoon Rai made initial landfall in Siargao Island, province of Surigao del Norte in Caraga region, northern Mindanao on 16 December 2021. It carried gusts up to 270 km/h with maximum sustained winds of 195 km/h near the centre making it the strongest storm to make landfall in the Philippines this year. The trail of the Typhoon Rai crossed the Philippine archipelago from Caraga to Eastern and Central Visayas and Palawan. It made nine landfalls in Surigao del Norte, Dinagat Islands, Southern Leyte, Bohol, Cebu, Negros Oriental and Palawan. The storm tore off roofs, uprooted trees, toppled concrete power poles, smashed wooden houses to pieces, wiped out crops and flooded villages — sparking comparisons to the damage caused by Super Typhoon Yolanda (international name Haiyan) in 2013. This project will facilitate the provision of emergency WASH activities for a period of up to 3 months (including provision of clean water, hygiene/COVID education and distribution of water jerry cans/hygiene kits); provision of hot meals for a period of up to 3 months; provision of up to 3500 cash grants to those most vulnerable families and individuals that have been impacted by Typhoon Odette (up to 6 months); and the provision of up 50 cash grants through PRC Youth Councils targeting “out of school youth impacted by COVID and Typhoon Odette (up to 6 months).

Mali RC Financial Sustainability Mali RC Financial Sustainability Increase the National Society Developement (NSD) of the Mali Red Cross National Society Development (NSD) in the context of this support aims to ensure that National Societies perform well in the four pillars of the financial sustainability concept:
• Pillar 1 focuses on strategic financial management based upon compliant financial information, analyses and planning, insight in their core cost recovery;
• Pillar 2 focuses on increasing the capacity to gain restricted and unrestricted income to cover its core cost and carry out its mission priorities;
• Pillar 3 focuses on building local sustained humanitarian action and services through strong branches, with the ambition that over time National Societies become less dependent on intermediary actors and international funds to carry out its mission priorities; and
• These 3 pillars are managed and balanced by a 4th crucial pillar in the concept focusing on professional and accountable leadership and governance of a national society, to lead an adaptive organization able to respond to changing environment. In some National Societies this implies the capacity to lead transformational change, in others the capacity to maintain organizational effectiveness through timely adaptation Mali Red Cross Mali

3FM Serious Request 2010: HIV prevention & treatment in Eritrea The purpose of the project is to increase family resilience and self-recovery ability of orphans and vulnerable children, and of people living with HIV. The objectives by which this purpose can be met are meeting the affected people's basic needs and minimizing future hazards, as well as increasing the capacity of the Eritrean Red Cross and its volunteers. The approach intends to make the families self-supporting through income that enables them to pay for and access community based support services. In Eritrea the national adult (15-49) HIV prevalence is estimated to be 1.33 % and an estimated 370 000 people live with HIV. Among young and unmarried people (especially in urban areas) the HIV prevalence is around 5- 10 %. Inadequate information and education on sex and reproductive health among young people, especially girls, is an important contributing factor to the HIV related vulnerability. Out of 105 000 orphans and vulnerable children, 40 000 are a result of HIV/AIDS. Stigmatisation and discrimination of persons living with HIV directly affect the wellbeing of children affected by HIV. The existing peer education (training peer educators and setting up peer clubs) will be used in order to increase HIV prevention knowledge and skills among young people. Furthermore, the target groups will be provided with both scholastic and psychosocial support, the families will be supported through home based care (nursing care), advocacy for prevention of mother to child transmission, as well as income generating activities and life skills, and food security training, young people will be given vocational skills training. Collaborating partners: The Netherlands Red Cross will be involved in providing financial support, as well as technical and monitoring support, while The Red Cross Society of Eritrea will collaborate with government ministries, and other stakeholders to build family and community response capacity to address stigma and discrimination. The beneficiaries of this project are children who themselves or their parents have been affected by HIV/ Aids. The peer education and community approach will indirectly benefit the entire communities. The target areas are: Galanafhi Sub Zoba (Zoba Maekel), Massawa Sub Zoba and Ginda Sub Zoba (Northern Red Sea), Assab Sub Zoba and Arata Sub Zoba (Southern Red Sea).The choice of these areas was based on the number and vulnerability of orphans and vulnerable children in these areas. The poverty in rural areas has lead to increased movement of many young people searching for employment opportunities. This population movement has triggered sex work among young girls.

3FM Serious Request 2012: Reducing infant mortality in Chad, Mali and Mauretania In the Islamic Republic of Mauritania and Chad, the programme seeks to eliminate new paediatric HIV infections and improve maternal and new-born health. In Mali, objectives are similar, being set to improving the health situations of women of child-bearing age and new-borns. Sub-Saharan Africa accounts for only 20% of the world's births but 45% of under-five deaths. Maternal mortality is also high, along with incidences of HIV and malaria. The Sub-Saharan, Sahelian countries of Mail, Niger, the Islamic Republic of Mauritania, and Chad have particularly alarming mother and infant mortality rates. In order to eliminate new paediatric HIV infections and improve the health situations of women and children, targeted actions such as training healthcare providers, workers, and Red Cross volunteers, purchasing equipment, HIV testing, and community-level awareness raising are carried out. Beneficiaries are women, new-borns, and sexually active males. The project takes place in Mali, Chad, Niger, and the Islamic Republic of Mauritania.

Nigeria - Diphtheria Outbreak Reports as of 10 October 2023 indicate that diphtheria is spreading fast in Nigeria and has reached 32 states so far. From the outset in epiweek 19 of 2022, to epi-week 41 of 2023, 15,060 suspected cases were reported in 32 states, out of which 9,486 cases have been confirmed, resulting in 562 deaths. Case fatality rate (CFR) is 5.9 per cent.
200K is confirmed to be allocated through an EA. This Emergency Appeal will scale up vaccination activities to other LGAs in Kano, Katsina, Bauchi, Yobe, Borno and Kaduna states, supporting 2,620 vaccination teams to provide immunization services to hard-to-reach populations. It will also feature community-based surveillance activities with approximately 2,000 Red Cross volunteers trained to (1) conduct active case finding and contact tracing of suspected diphtheria cases and (2) make referrals to surveillance officers for investigation and health treatment centres for further testing and treatment. The main action is aimed at reducing the suffering of the affected,their families and communities through eight main
strategies:
• RCCE to promote community behaviour change to reduce transmission of the disease
• active case finding for improved surveillance
• door-to-door sensitization and mobilization of eligible persons for vaccination
• intensified RI activities and deploying vaccination teams to reach zero-dose children and missed communities
• conducting road shows/walks and vaccination outreach to zero-dose children and missed communities
• community stakeholder meetings and targeted advocacy including media engagement
• contact tracing in Kano, Borno, Kaduna, Jigawa, Zamfara, Yobe, Bauchi and Katsina states
• Psychological first aid to address vaccine hesitancy and provide care to affected persons This response will target people 5.4millionpeople in Kano, Katsina, Lagos, Osun, Kaduna and FC Tinitially, and then incorporate Bauchi, Yobe, Jigawa, Yobe, Zamfara, Borno and Sokoto states. Selection criteria were:
• LGAs recording cases of diphtheria and highest caseload as a priority
• communities with a high number of zero-dose children and low immunization coverage
• children and youth 0 to 17
• adults aged 18 and over, especially those who are not vaccinated at all or only partially vaccinated with Td or
Pentavalent
• persons with disabilities who may be at risk of not accessing health care and not getting vaccinated The new geographical targeting follows the evolution of cases and priorities for vaccination. A reactive vaccination campaign is planned for Kano in two phases, and for Katsina, Borno, Bauchi, Yobe and Kaduna (Phase 1); NRCS will deploy volunteers to conduct social mobilization for vaccination and support additional vaccination teams in hard-to-reach, underserved communities, for increased coverage.
Priority will be placed on zero-dose and under-vaccinated children and children aged 0 to 17. Adults aged 18 and over, especially those who have not been vaccinated, will also be targeted. Reducing cross-border transmission between Nigeria and Republic of Niger will also be integrated.

Ebola 2014: caring for affected people and preventing further spread in Sierra Leone The Sierra Leone Red Cross Society seeks to provide short and long-term assistance to those affected by Ebola through community engagement, safe and dignified burials, health and care, disaster risk reduction, food security and livelihood assistance, monitoring and contact tracing, case management, and strengthening the capacity of the Sierra Leone Red Cross Society's to respond to the needs of the affected. 2014's Ebola epidemic in West Africa is the largest to date, and the first outbreak ever in West Africa. The epidemic in the region began in Guinea and then spread to the neighbouring countries of Liberia and Sierra Leone. There were also outbreaks in Senegal, Nigeria, and Mali. As of 7 November 2015, Sierra Leone was declared Ebola-free, but only after the virus claimed nearly 4,000 lives. Creating awareness among communities is critical to helping contain and prevent future cases of the virus. Community-based activities include hygiene promotion, safe and dignified burials that allow relatives and others to mourn the deceased safely to prevent the spread of the virus, psychosocial support, and information-sharing with communities. Other work in communities includes ensuring safe water, increased sanitation, and food security and livelihood support to counter the negative economic effects the virus has on population movements. Another critical component is contact tracing towards effective mapping of the disease, which strengthens resilience in communities. This project targets high-risk groups and opinion leaders, such as: women's groups and associations, bike riders and drivers, schools, religious and traditional healer leaders, health workers, and Ebola patients. Special attention is given to women, since they are particularly vulnerable. This project operates nationwide.

Uganda is among a number of countries throughout the world that is prone to both disaster and conflict, and its Red Cross/Red Crescent national society lacks the capacity to adequately respond to emergencies fueled by disaster and conflict. Response preparedness support will be given through training and equipping Red Cross staff, providing relief kits and building infrastructure, training exercises, and developing contingency plans to further aid disaster response. This programme seeks to provide support to Red Cross staff to help those affected by disaster. The programme in Uganda is implemented throughout the country.

PRCS/L Health in Crisis Phase III PRCS/L Health in Crisis Phase III Lebanon is being hit by crisis after crisis, with a state of emergency in place and the political freeze continuing. The nationwide economic collapse and the COVID-19 pandemic have a huge impact on the whole population and especially refugees. Due to the protracted crisis situation, PRCS/L has to respond to an increased demand on their life-saving services. Unfortunately trends in the humanitarian domain in Lebanon are giving a very worrisome prognosis for 2021 from a political, socio-economic, security, and public health perspective.
Due to the fact that PRCS/L does not have a formal legal status in Lebanon, PRCS/L cannot run income generation activities. In combination with the reduction of UNRWA funds and PRCS/L being a subcontractor of UNRWA, PRCS/L has suffered a huge dent in the availability of funds to sustain their ambulance and outreach services and to keep their hospitals running. This project aims to continue support to PRCS/L’s core activities building on NLRC’s support over the past years, as well as complement that of other RC/RC Movement and external partners, in providing medicine, medical supplies for patients and to 5 PRCS/L hospitals that all support PRCS/L’s overall mandate and mission. The operational strategy of the project is to improve the health of the most vulnerable Palestinian refugees, Syrians, Lebanese and other vulnerable communities in Lebanon by strengthening the health emergency response capacity of PRCS/L.

Haiti earthquake 2010: Water and sanitation facilities for affected families As part of an on-going response to the January 12, 2010 earthquake, the Canadian Red Cross Society (CRC) and the Netherlands Red Cross are undertaking a series of health projects in the Southeast department of Haiti. Among these projects is a community-based health and first aid in action project (CBHFA) which includes the construction of 5,000 latrines. The overall goal of building latrines is increased disease and injury-resilience. Haiti is one of the poorest countries in the Western hemisphere, and in 2010 experience a devastating earthquake that further weakened the country's already fragile health, water, and sanitation systems. Only 45% and 25% of Haiti's urban and rural populations respectively have access to improved sanitation, creating critical public health risk and high child morbidity. With disease and injury prevention at its core, the programme builds latrines to encourage positive health-related behaviour in communities. Additional community-based outreach includes improving water infrastructure and training in proper sanitation. Households in the communes of Musac, Ternier, Gaillard, and Macary are targeted. The project takes place in Haiti's Southeast department, specifically in the communes of Cayes-Jacmel, La Vallée and Marigot. Within these communes, the communal sections of Gaillard, Macary, Musac and Ternier contain the sections where latrines will be built.

Strengthening Local Community Resilience to climate change in Northern, River Nile and Kassala State, in Sudan The overall objective of the project is to increase local communities’ resilience to climate change funded under the GCCA+ initiative.
The project will reverse the trend of environmental degradation and lack of resilience in the following ways:
• Improve management of key natural resources including: communal forests and rangelands
• Increase people’s awareness of the need for protection of natural resources, and provide men and women with the knowledge and means to sustainably manage these resources.
• Train and equip small-scale farmers and (agro-) pastoralists to adapt their livelihood practices to the current and predicted climatic conditions and natural resources available
• Create opportunities for value addition and livelihood diversification, with increased opportunities for men, women, and youth to contribute to the household income
At the end of the project, selected communities in El Golid, Shendi and Telkouk localities will be less vulnerable to desertification through a combined approach of sustainable natural resource management and strengthening of livelihoods. An expanded area in the target locality will be protected from sand dune encroachment and sand movement; agricultural and pastoralist production at household level will have increased and diversified livelihood options.

Syria-ICRC Septembre Campaign 2016 This project aims at implementing lifesaving interventions such as access and benefits from primary health care services, preventive and curative health Syria is suffering since 2011 from a (protracted) crisis and residents and displaced populations in conflict and or besieged areas are hard to reach with medical aid and supplies People in eight provinces had recourse to preventive and curative care at seven mobile health units and seven polyclinics run by the Syrian Arab Red Crescent, with material, financial and technical ICRC support – for instance, the ICRC purchased refrigerated vehicles for the National Society, so as to enable the latter to better transport vaccines. Other National Society-run clinics, and health facilities in besieged and/or hard-to-reach areas, received basic
medical materials, including drugs for acute and chronic diseases, and supplies for childbirth. Assistance to some of these facilities was delivered during operations coordinated with the National Society and the UN (see above). Local authorities, health professionals and National Society personnel continued to work, with ICRC technical, material and financial support, to curb leishmaniasis and other communicable diseases. People mitigated their risk from such diseases with the help of health-promotion and lice-treatment campaigns, and bed net distributions.
The ICRC continued to develop activities for ensuring the referral of victims of sexual violence to providers of appropriate care Wounded and sick people lacking health care. The total number reached with health care in 2016 is 1.4 million people mostly in besieged areas

Venezuela - Health Emergency The planned response reflects the current situation which is evolving, and will be adjusted based on further assessments, contingencies and emerging issues. Due to the pressing need to expand the provision of health and WASH services, activities that have not been covered by the IFRC Venezuela Country Office Plan will be included under this Appeal, and the Country Office Plan will be reviewed to ensure full complementarity and avoid duplications. Medical equipment needs replacement and urgent maintenance to cover the high demand for medical services, throughout the wider public health care system, including VRC health network. Also, national power outages have caused the deterioration of the functioning conditions in the health facilities, which generates an immediate need to invest in a better operative integrity in case of presenting or prolonging the difficulties of having continuous electrical sources in public health installations. Medical equipment, including power generators, are particularly in demand.

Partners for Resilience: Indonesia The Strategic Partnership of Partners for Resilience (PfR) is aimed at promoting and improving (attention for) Integrated Risk Management (IRM) in policies, investments and practices of key stakeholders. The ultimate aim is to improve resilience of vulnerable communities who are confronted with disaster risks though better laws and regulations, IRM-proof investments (including screening), and enhanced practices that take better account of their potential to reduce risks. This project focuses on improving resilience in Indonesian communities. People world-wide live in disaster-prone areas. Disasters damage the eco-systems they live in and upon which their livelihoods depend. Their vulnerability to disasters is aggrevated by climate change, which increases the frequency, scale and inpredictability of disasters. Eco-systems, if protected and managed well, can play an important role in mitigating the impact of disasters (holding more excess water, sheltering form storms). Partners for Resilience strengthens community resilience by working with civil society organisations on reducing risks and strengthening livelihoods of vulnerable communities, with specific attention for marginalized groups and women. The Integrated Risk Management (IRM) approach bridges time- and spatial scales. It integrates the urgent attention needed for changing risks due to changes in hazards, exposure and vulnerability. IRM includes a specific focus on ecosystem degradation, locally and in the wider landscape, as well as changes in hazards due to climate change (in relation to current risks, nearterm changes and longer-term shifts in climate patterns). IRM thus integrates elements from disaster risk reduction (DRR), climate change adaptation (CCA) and ecosystem management and restoration (EMR). Actions relate to different actors. Four groups are distinguished: Communities, Civil Society organisations (Red Cross, plus PfR partners, other CSOs, organised communities), Government (at various levels), and the private sector. Beneficiaries of the programme are vulnerable communities in disaster-prone conditions. This project focuses on vulnerable communities in Indonesia.

Worldwide silent disasters 2016 The Disaster Relief Emergency Fund (DREF) provides immediate financial support to Red Cross Red Crescent National Societies, enabling them to act as first responders after a disaster. Projects in this programme are funded by the Dutch Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and provide monetary support for small, silent disasters around the world in 2016. The lack of visibility and media attention in the case of small-scale disasters means that international appeals or funding are not forthcoming to support any response, and few other sources are available to first-responders. DREF makes it possible to assist in case of these silent disaster. Each response supported by DREF may be different, depending on context, scope of needs, accessibility and security of the affected area, and the mandate and capacity of the National Society that is responding. Allocations may be made as start-up loans to meet the costs of responding to small-scale emergency relief operations, or for making preparations in the case of imminent disaster. All requests for DREF allocations are reviewed on a case-by-case basis. DREF appeals are initiated by IFRC and are implemented in cooperation with Host National Society. In 2015 NLRC contributed to DREF appeals in Bangladesh, Central African Republic, Democratic Republic of Congo, Ethiopia, Tanzania, Vietnam and Yemen.

First aid for Syrian refugees in Lebanon 2014-2015 (Wadi Khaled) The goal of this Programme is to support the Lebanese Red Cross Society by contributing the temporary Emergency Medical Services station in Wadi Khaled, in order to facilitate the first aid to and the transportation of the wounded from the Syrian-Lebanese border area to Lebanese hospitals. Since the beginning of the crisis in Syria till end of March 2014 the Lebanese Red Cross EMS department has carried out approximately 4.455 transports and provided 5.206 times first aid to Syrian patients. Besides of this 5.164 other services had been provided by the EMS department of the Lebanese Red Cross to Syrians. In Wadi Khaled LRCS EMS provided 603 times first aid and 1.599 transports in this period. Before the Syrian crisis LRCS had only an EMS station in El Qbaiyat (Northern Lebanon). However the distance from this station to Wadi Khaled (where most refugees were crossing the border and settled down) is quite far. The EMS station in El Qbaiyat is approximately 45 minutes driving from Wadi Khaled. A temporary EMS station in Wadi Khaled is necessary to support the high number of (wounded) people displaced from Syria who have settled themselves in Wadi Khaled. This project realises a EMS station in Wadi Khaled, equipped with two ambulances and opened day and night. Benificiaries of this project are Syrian patients and those of neighbouring communities of the Wadi Khaled region. EMS station is in Wadi Khaled.

Chronic Crisis - Food insecurity in Haiti The overall objective of the operation is to tackle food insecurity chronically affecting vulnerable families exposed to disaster risks that are driven by climate change in the South district (Les Anglais, Chardonnieres and Tiburon municipalities) and South East district (Cayes Jacmel, Marigot municipality). The operation will apply a Climate Smart Agriculture and Water Management approach to enhance resilience of 160,000 people in the target area. The food insecurity situation has been worsening over the last months in Haiti. The latest harvest has provided poor yields because of an extended drought in the South and South-East Department of the country. The rainy season saw little rainfall, stressing out livelihoods for most of the farmers. Food insecurity is such an important issue because affected communities are dependent on harvest as their main income-generating activity but also and foremost because agricultural yields are the primary source of food for families. The already severe food insecurity situation in the South-East and South department has been further impacted by Tropical Storm Laura who damaged several water distribution points and key irrigation systems used by local communities for agriculture and human consumption. Households used coping mechanisms such as fetching water directly from small rivers and going to other households' water source. This situation put further pressure on households and especially women and children who are responsible to fetch water resulting in more time spent and increase of waterborne diseases. During the inception phase a preliminary assessment will be conducted in the target municipalities together with local governmental and technical authorities, local civil society organizations (including women's association and other CSOs working with marginalized groups), community leaders, to identify and select the villages which will be targeted by the operation based on selected criteria (e.g. food security, level and diversity of livelihood sources, access to drinking water, etc.).
Gender and social inclusion focus group discussions will be conducted to identify the most vulnerable and at risk groups as well as to address their pressing needs, also in terms of protection and avoid to leave behind some of the most neglected.
At community level, the project will apply the standard participative approach of Red Cross by using the community vulnerability and capacity assessment including specific technical assessment on food security, livelihood and water access and focus group discussions with women and vulnerable groups The assessment will allow to develop a community development and resilience plan which will be under the lead of community development committee.
The project will apply a Climate-Smart Agriculture (CSA) approach which is an integrated approach to managing landscapes and ecosystems - cropland, livestock, forests and water sources - that address the interlinked challenges of food security and accelerating household vulnerability to climate change.
The project will operate on two main areas of focus: 1. Livelihoods and basic needs and 2. Water, sanitation and hygiene. It will also include targeted activities that enhance a better integration of protection, gender and inclusion in the programme. Haiti Red Cross the South district (Les Anglais, Chardonnieres and Tiburon municipalities) and South East district (Cayes Jacmel, Marigot municipality).

2023 - SHO Syria Earthquake - 1st (25%) Through this Emergency Appeal, the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC) together with the partner national societies aim to support the Syrian Arab Red Crescent Society in the response to this Syria Earthquake. On the 6th of February at close to 4:17 am, a 7.8 degrees magnitude earthquake struck southern Turkey near Syria’s northern border. The US Geological Survey said the earthquake was centered about 33 km (20 miles) from Gaziantep, a major city and provincial capital. Tremors were felt as far away as Lebanon, Greece, Palestine and the island of Cyprus. Another big earthquake was felt on the same day at around 1:24 pm local time, largely in the same affected areas. The strategy of the IFRC response will be to contribute to support 300,000 affected people in the affected areas for a period of 11 months. Targeting will prioritize the most vulnerable groups such as separated families, female-headed households, children, people with disabilities and the elderly among other groups of special needs. 300,000 affected people in the affected areas for a period of 11 months.

DR Congo - Ebola Virus Disease Outbreak This revised One International Appeal (OIA) seeks a total of some 31.5 m Swiss francs, increased from 9.1M Swiss francs, to enable the Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement (Movement) to deliver assistance and support response to and containment of the current Ebola Virus Disease (EVD) outbreak in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) and neighbouring countries that are at risk (Uganda, Rwanda, Burundi and South Sudan). This revised OIA aims to support 15.5 million people for 15 months with a specific focus on five pillars of the Movement’s Ebola response: Risk Communication and Community Engagement (RCCE), Infection Prevention and Control (IPC) support to health facilities and at community level, Safe and Dignified Burials (SDBs), Psychosocial support (PSS); as well as capacity strengthening of the Red Cross National Societies in all five countries. The activities in this appeal will focus on scaling-up the response in affected health zones in the DRC, while at the same time enhancing activities in the surrounding health zones, provinces, and priority countries bordering DRC to encircle and contain the current outbreak. The activities in this revised OIA are fully aligned with the DRC National Strategic Response Plan (SRP3) and WHO Regional Strategic EVD Readiness Preparedness Plan and will continue to be implemented in close collaboration with the respective Ministries of Health, the World Health Organization (WHO) and other organisations in each country. The Ebola response in North Kivu and Ituri is currently being driven by an ongoing expansion within ‘hot spot’ health areas in key health zones through ‘super spreading’ cells by a highly mobile population and intra-familial infections. The response has been complicated by violence and insecurity, making it difficult to sustain downward trends in the outbreak. While not classified as a public health emergency of international concern, the complex security situation—including mistrust of some of the population of health authorities and humanitarian organizations—the risk of spread to neighbouring countries and new health zones/provinces in DRC remains very high. The WHO has called for intensified epidemic response activities in DR Congo and in neighbouring countries to avoid worsening conditions and further spread of the virus. The response will continue to focus in all targeted countries on the five pillars activities which are the strength of the Movement but differentiated according to the specific situation of each national context, seeking to build complementarities and avoid duplication through continued coordination with the respective Ministries of Health and other health sector partners. Each country’s specific plan builds on activities which have already been completed under previous Ebola preparedness Disaster Relief and Emergency Fund operations (DREFs), all of which finished in the first quarter of 2019.

Preparedness for disaster response and early action in Malawi The Preparedness for Response and Early Action in Malawi project (PREAM) is a partnership between the Malawi Red Cross Society, the Danish Red Cross, the Belgian Red Cross and the Netherlands Red Cross and is funded by ECHO (EU humanitarian aid). The project enhances institutional Early Warning/Early Action capacities at national and district level, developing tools, systems and coordination mechanism as well as maximizing the use of available data. The Department of Disaster Management Affairs (DoDMA) is strengthened in it’s lead role on national and district level, and policy and legal frameworks adapted. At community level, the project contributes to better response preparedness. Communities are equipped with Early Warning/Early Action materials, local schools are prepared to serve as evacuation centers, community response teams are set up and communities are trained in First Aid. Multi hazard sensitive social protection systems and safety nets have been developed and (mobile) Emergency Operation Center is built to offer first response in case of emergency. Similar to many countries ,the people of Malawi are exposed to multi-hazards, ranging from floods, cyclones, droughts and epidemics resulting in loss of lives and livelihood assets and economic losses. Mountainous areas are prone to heavy rainfall, which results in flash floods in low-lying plains downstream such as the areas this project focusses on, Chitipa and Karonga district. Although there has been attention for response preparedness in these districts in the past, coordination and infrastructure from national, district towards village level was insufficient. This project will contribute to the Disaster Risk Managment Policy of Malawi and will enhance response capacities at national, district and village level. The project is in line with the commitments made at the World Humanitarian Summit (WHS) and will invest in anticipating crisis and localisation of aid contriubtion to the four priorities of the Sendai Framework. Karonga and Chitipa District where Village Level Contingency Plans will be developed by community members themselves under guidance of the Village Civil Protection Committees (VCPC) and that will be aligned with the National Contingency Plan.

Proud of my Purok: supporting communities to prevent and prepare for disasters Unfortunately we cannot prevent typhoons or natural disasters, but we can minimize their impact. This project aims to promote community resilience in the face of natural hazard events. The Philippines is one of the most disaster prone countries in the world, exacerbating this situation is that global climate change, which has resulted in an increased number of days with heavy rainfall, causing the flood of the Agusan River Basin. This flooding is annual phenomenon, but it is increasingly becoming a threat as it causes severe landslide events which results in the loss and damage of the environment and communities. The project enables communities, local authorities and institutions to build their reslience to disaters in a number of ways. We teach them about the early warning systems, restoration, climate change adaptation, and strengthen the local government units and their communities response capacities. There is also extra focus on advocacy towards more sustainable management of the river basin at different levels. The project is focused on the most vulnerable sections of communities, such as small land owners, the landless, fisher-folk, daily wage labourers and so on. It also includes vulnerable social groups such as the elderly, women headed households, persons with disablity, minority groups and children. The implementing partner of this project is the Philippene Red Cross, working in cooperation and with financial support from The Netherlands Red Cross. The targeted communities are in Agusan del Sure province, as it is located in the lower part of the Agusan river basin. The targeted Barangays are within the Mucipalities of: Esperanza, Talacogan, Maragusan and Monkayo.

Provision of Emergency Assistance to Syrian refugees 17-18 The aim of the project is to support Lebanese Red Cross (LRC) in its intervention lessening the impact of the crisis on vulnerable communities (Syrian and host Lebanese) in remote areas near the Syrian borders and in the areas where the unregistered Syrian population reside in higher numbers, such as Tripoli and Beqaa Valley. Military conflicts and refugee influx in these areas are putting lot of pressure on LRC EMS stations and DMU branches. Frequent security skirmishes and military search operations are the norm. The relief activities will be targeting 1100 families living in informal tented settlements (ITS) in Akkar area near the Lebanon-Syrian northern border. These families have no direct access to the food market, in fact they are caught between Lebanese communities to the south and the Syrian border to the north. Cash Transfer Programming is not a modality that can be accessed by these communities. Therefore, NLRC and Swiss RC will be supporting the distribution of food parcels. The support from NLRC would cover monthly food distributions for 1100 HH for 24 months in Akkar. The support from NLRC further supports ambulance stations and blood transfusion centres run by LRC. The project will support two EMS stations; in Tripoli and Rachaya. Of all 46 EMS stations of LRCS, Tripoli is the most active one. The station is providing pre-hospital care for Lebanese and Syrians (251,299 Syrians are registered in the North of Lebanon as per September 2016). Rachaya station is located in a remote area near the southern Lebanon-Syrian border; LRCS is already implementing several disaster management (DM) activities in this area. NLRC has been supporting the Wadi Khaled EMS station since the beginning of the Syria Crisis. This project will continue supporting Wadi Khaled station in 2018. NLRC will support the LRCS DMU department in providing monthly food parcel distributions in Akkar area for 1100 families during two years. These families are living in informal tented settlements (ITS) near the Syrian border with almost no access to the local market. Therefore, these distributions are of great importance to the beneficiaries. In previous projects, NLRC supported the rehabilitation of Tripoli Blood Transfusion Centre (BTC). Following the LRCS strategy and in order to comply with Ministry of Public Health (MoPH) standards, all BTCs will have to undergo rehabilitation. Within this project the Saida BTC premises will be rehabilitated. LRCS’s local donors already provided an unfinished premises which will make the rehabilitation process more efficient.
The Safety and Security Unit has been supported by NLRC since its creation. The proposed project would continue this support. According to the Movement Coordination Agreement discussions, LRCS has been given the important lead in security management for the entire RCRC movement along with ICRC during times of crisis. Security management agreements will be signed between LRCS, IFRC and sister National Societies to ensure security management procedures are in place for all delegates in-country. Covering staff and running costs of ambulance stations, rehabilitation of blood transfusion centres, and food parcel distributions to provide Syrian refugees and vulnerable host communities with access to pre-hospital health services as well as sustain in their needs through food distributions.

3FM Serious Request 2015: The Next Generation, Syria This project will establish three Community Service Centres (previously called the Psychosocial Support Service Centres) to contribute and build individual resilience. The centers are based on a model previously successfully implemented by the Syrian Arab Red Crescent. The crisis has dramatically reduced access to education and learning for Syria’s children and youth. The protracted nature of the crisis is affecting a whole generation, hindering their opportunities to develop capacities and the resources they need for a productive future. Female children and young girls, perceived as being particularly vulnerable to violence, has resulted in parents withdrawing their female children from school. In addition, many children are forced to work to support their families, due to the loss or absence of a primary financial provider and limited or no access to alternative sources of income. Through this project, SARC will establish three new Community Centres. The Centres will focus in providing psychosocial support, livelihoods and lessons to children and adolescents. The Centres will have a strong focus in providing lessons and support to children and adolescent in school ages to ensure they can reinsert into the official school system and perform to be able to advance and complete the school grades. Three Community Centres will be established in three governorates: Hama, Homs and Rural Damascus

Somalia - Drought Somali Red Crescent Society (SRCS) in assisting up to 502,800 people, increased from 352,800 people. SRCS has reached approximately 280,000 people1 through various interventions including health and nutrition, water and sanitation, food security and livelihoods as well as shelter and settlements, to date. This revision maintains the strategy developed in the July 2017 revision of the Appeal but aims to reach more vulnerable people with a further geographical reach since large parts of the country are forecasted to remain affected by the food crisis, the threat of disease outbreaks and ongoing internal displacement driven by drought and conflict. Details are available in the Emergency Plan of Action (EPoA). Support to this emergency requires flexible funding and as little earmarking as possible to allow the operation to be responsive to new or evolving needs. The priority is to implement time sensitive activities to safeguard affected populations against further deterioration of an already stressed situation.

2023 Turkiye - Syria Earthquake - strengthening MENA delegation The IFRC MENA Regional Delegation has been going through a transformative phase to ensure that it is agile, fit for purpose, and capable to enhance the MENA National Societies’ response to the current crises and in alignment with S2030 and the Agenda for Renewal. Aligned with the global IFRC secretariat’s approach to have greater impact with a harmonized and consistent approach, the MENA Regional Delegation will also support the systems that enable it to work as one coherent organization globally, but with a clear country focus. MENA Region Approach will focus on three main pillars: 1.People centered, 2.Prioritized 3. Positioned
The starting point of the rationale of this approach is to place people at the center of our work – both in terms of the people we work with as well as the people we serve. By letting people be our guide, our culture will thrive and staff and people we serve will be empowered to create real change.
The second point is the need to prioritize our actions. We need to anticipate evolving trends and identify areas where we can maximize impact and transformational change for people most in need through smart and innovative responses.
When the central role of people and relevant priorities are established, we are well positioned to become a partner of choice for donors and other stakeholders to convene and influence humanitarian action and to assist Host National Societies to sustain relevant quality services over time.ritized

3FM Serious Request 2010: HIV prevention & treatment in Namibia The purpose of the Orphans and Vulnerable Children Project 2011-2013 is to contribute to the reduction of vulnerability and to the capacity building and increased resilience of orphans and vulnerable children (OVC), their families and communities, by strengthening the support, care and treatment for OVC and their guardians. In 2008 there was an estimated 174 000 people living with HIV in Namibia. Women account for about 62% of all adults aged 15-49 years living with HIV. The pandemic has led to a decline in life expectancy and an increase in under-five mortality. Over 50% of the beds in the hospitals are occupied by patients with HIV and AIDS related illnesses, and AIDS is the leading cause of adult mortality in the country. 70 000 children have lost one or both parents due to AIDS. It is estimated that 16 000 children are living with HIV, and that at least half of them are in need of Antiretroviral Therapy. The following strategies and activities will be implemented in order to reach the goals set for the project: provision of material (incl. blankets, mosquito nets, shelter material, hygiene packs), educational (incl. sensitisation on nutrition, HIV, hygiene, sanitation, child protection), scholastic and livelihood (incl. seeds and tools) support to orphans and vulnerable children (OVC) and their families, implementation of peer education training, strengthening the capacity of the Namibian Red Cross to provide support for OVC. The implementing partner of this project is the Namibian Red Cross Society and the funding partner is the Belgian Red Cross – Flanders. This project targets 300 of the most vulnerable orphans and vulnerable children, as well as their parents, grannies and other care takers/ guardians. The project areas are Grootfontein, Otavi, Otjituuwo, Shamalindi and Kaposa/Alina in the Otjozondjupa Region.

Syria conflict: supporting refugees in Lebanon The project objective is to improve life conditions for Syrian refugees and the hosting communities impacted by the Syrian Crisis. Due to the Syrian Crisis a lot of refugees have been forced to find shelters in neigboring countries. The conflict has even started to spill over to Lebanon and with an increasing number of armed attacks, there is serious need for better health care in the area. In Jordan the urban refugees face different issues: They face increasing poverty and if they are able to find work, they receive low wages for unskilled labour. Additionally, the pressure put on male family members in poor living conditions leads to increased levels of violence for those staying at home. These women and children also face limited freedom of movement due to traumas and cultural reasons. The action is focused on the basic needs of the vulnerable refugee population. In Lebanon, we are focusing on improving access to health care and first aid. In Jordan an intergrated neighborhood approach is implemented with many components. It involves preventing extreme poverty by providing cash and also improving access to safe water and sanitation facilities. This approach will also target the host communities, in order to minimize further tensions between them and the refugees. The program will also contribute to increase the capacity of the Lebanese and the Jordanian Red Cresent Soceities. In this project we are targeting both refugees populations as the most vulnerable, but also the host communities who need support. The implementing partners in this project are the Lebanese Red Cross Soceity and The Jordan Red Cross Society with the support of the Netherlands Red Cross. The most vulnerable refugee populations targeted in this program are in Lebanon and Jordan. In Lebanon the areas are, Akkar district, Baalbek and Hermel districts, Hasbaya and Tripoli. In Jordan, South Amman will be targeted.

Niger - Food Crisis The purpose of this project is to provide food, nutrition and carry out prevention activities for 2,020 households (13,130 people) to enable the affected population to survive and meet its immediate needs. Over the last decade, food crisis in Niger have become increasingly intense and widespread. This can mainly be explained by the impact of climate change on rainfall: the late start of the rainy season, more frequent dry days, greater flood frequencies. The consequences on cereal production and pastoral activity are direct, and thus on the food security of populations: Sixty percent of Niger families can only cover three to five months of their annual food needs. Today, people struggle to recover from a crisis as another occurs. Millions of people are becoming prisoners of an endless cycle: during each crisis, they lose their crops and livestock or brave them to survive. They are becoming increasingly vulnerable. This project sees to the needs of affected populations through providing food assistance, implementing nutritional and community health mechanisms, and carrying out water, sanitation, and hygiene-related services. This project will reach 13,130 people (2,020 households). This project takes place in Niger's Dosso region.

First aid for Syrian refugees in Lebanon 2016-2017 (Wadi Khaled) The goal of this Programme is to support the Lebanese Red Cross Society by contributing the temporary Emergency Medical Services station in Wadi Khaled, in order to facilitate the first aid to and the transportation of the wounded from the Syrian-Lebanese border area to Lebanese hospitals. Most of the Syrian refugees entered Lebanon through border crossings in the area of Wadi Khaled. For that reason LRCS decided to establish in 2011 a temporary EMS station in Wadi Khaled. This station had been supported by NLRC since March 2012. This project realises a EMS station in Wadi Khaled, equipped with two ambulances and opened day and night. The main reasons for assistance are pregnancy related issues, wounded, accidents and infectious diseases. The ambulances are in constant need of maintenance due to the high number of trips per shift and the bad road conditions. Benificiaries of this project are Syrian patients and those of neighbouring communities of the Wadi Khaled region. EMS station is in Wadi Khaled, Lebanon.

Zimbabwe Cholera EA 100K contribution for cholera outbreak in Zimbabwe. As of 7 November 2023, Zimbabwe has recorded 6,685 suspected cholera cases and 136 suspected deaths. For the last two weeks, the number of new cases recorded weekly has surpassed 500 marking the highest rate recorded since the first outbreak in February. The crude mortality rate remains above 2% and raises concerns regarding case management and the quality of care.
The districts and targeted populations will be prioritised based on the increased number of cases and deaths, along with high-risk factors contributing to the occurrence of new cases. The target locations include rural areas with high caseloads, peri-urban informal settlements, and health institutions managing cholera patients in the targeted geographical areas Due to the high rate of transmission, the disease is now affecting people across multiple geographical areas. To date, suspected and confirmed cases have been reported in 45 out of 62 districts and in all 10 provinces of the country. The outbreak has now spread to more than the 17 traditional cholera hotspot districts,2 putting at risk over 10 million people, including more than five million children 11,000,000 people The outbreak has now spread to more than the 17 traditional cholera hotspot districts,: Buhera, Chegutu, Chikomba, Chimanimani, Chipinge, Chitungwiza, Chiredzi, Harare, Gokwe North, Marondera, Mazowe, Shamva, Mutare, Murehwa, Mwenezi, Seke, Bikita, Zaka and Wedza

Strengthening Resilience to Disasters in Urban and Rural Malawi The overall objective is to contribute to reducing the impact of disasters in Malawi by strengthening the preparedness and response capacity of national response structures, communities and schools. The specific objective is to develop and improve preparedness and response capacities at multiple levels to be able to prepare for and effectively respond to disasters in urban and rural Malawi. According to the INFORM map developed by the NLRC 510 Data Team, Malawi has a high risk rating, primarily driven by the populations' high ranking for vulnerability and lack of support systems, which results in a low coping capacity to respond to disasters. Through the consolidation of data of existing Early Warning Systems, developing national level data management capacity and by offering specialized trainings to Malawi Red Cross Society (MRCS) staff and other members of national response coordination platforms. Second, at district and community levels, the project will increase preparedness through tools developed by the IFRC – and adapted to the local context by MRCS in previous proposals – which will result in community-specific hazard maps, contingency plans and management plans. Disaster response teams will be established in 30 communities in the target area and trained and equipped to prepare for disasters. The project will install river gauges in 4 communities and will train community members to transmit alerts to at-risk communities and responsible authorities. Third, at community level, the project will establish and train 20 Red Cross School Clubs and develop a DRR training module which will guide the Clubs to identify and mitigate hazards in their communities. The action will support these Clubs in conducting outreach exercises, motivating their communities to address hazards. Finally, the Red Cross will respond to disasters in Malawi with assessments in 48 hours and will support affected households with cash distributions. The project targets rural and urban locations which have different levels of exposure to risk, hazards and coping mechanisms. Karonga, Liliongwe andMzuzu

Response Hurricane Eta-Central America Hurricane Eta made landfall in Northeast Nicaragua on 3 November 2020. It affected large parts of the populations of Nicaragua, Honduras and Guatemala and caused floods, landslides and damaged homes, buildings, roads and infrastructure. Soon afterwards hurricane Iota further worsened the situation. The present operation aims to meet the immediate basic needs and support early recovery of affected people affected by Hurricane/Tropical Storm Eta's passage for an estimated duration of 18 months. A significant number of houses have suffered damages due to flooding in the most affected areas. It is still unclear the accurate figures in terms of the number of damaged houses. It is expected that the numbers are quite high according to the panoramic views taken from the air. Because of the floods, the affected households have lost their basic belongings such a kitchen tools, clothes, and sleeping elements (mattress and blankets). IFRC will deliver assistance and support early recovery of the people affected by the Hurricane Eta for 18 months, with a focus on the following areas of focus and strategies for implementation: Shelter; Livelihood and basic needs; Health (including Mental Health and Psychological Support); Water, sanitation and hygiene; Protection, Gender and Inclusion; Migration; Strengthening the National Society, Ensuring effective international disaster management, Influencing others as leading strategic partner and Ensuring a strong IFRC. 15,000 families affected (75,000 people) Nicaragua, Honduras and Guatemala

Syria Complex Emergency The project seeks to respond to the needs of the most vulnerable people affected by the current crisis in Syria through supporting the Syrian Arab Red Crescent's humanitarian response and enhancing its operation capacities. The Red Cross provides aid in food security, shelter and settlements, water, sanitation, and hygiene, health and care, and national society capacity building. In the past four years since the Syria crisis began, humanitarian needs have increased twelvefold, leaving an estimated 12.2 million people in need due to the protracted crisis. Over half of Syria's population has been forced to leave their homes multiple times, with two-thirds of the population living in extreme poverty. Basic social and health services are overloaded, and there is decreased access to food and water. Widespread violence continues cycles of displacement and endangers both the displaced and the ability to deliver humanitarian aid. The Red Cross has reached 600,000 people with food parcels, with aid from the Netherlands Red Cross. Distributing shelter and settlement-related non-food items to reduce displacement vulnerabilities is critical, in 2015 alone 35,000 families have received winterisation support, in which the Netherlands Red Cross is also involved. Over 300,000 people have received hygiene-related items like hygiene kits, and the rehabilitation and construction of water sources has reached 106,000 people. In terms of health, psychosocial, infrastructure, and basic health services support are delivered, 200,000 critically ill patients have been reached with needed medicines. The Syrian Arab Red Crescent is supported through trainings and other capacity-building support. The project seeks to provide aid to the most vulnerable populations in the Syrian conflict. Due to the nature of the conflict, the Red Cross operates throughout the country. Specifically, it provides assistance in: Damascus and Rural Damascus, Homs, Deir Zour, Al-Hasakeh, Aleppo, Idleb, Hama, Tartous, and Quneitra.

Additional COVID-19 support PRCS/L In its five areas of operations in Lebanon, Palestine Red Crescent Society – Lebanon Branch (PRCS-L) provides health and ambulance services to Palestinian refugees and all other vulnerable in need, distributed in 12 official camps recognized by UNRWA and a number of informal gatherings that do not benefit from UNRWA services. The total number of registered Palestinian refugees in Lebanon is 470,000. The number of who are still present in Lebanon is 270,614. PRCS-L suffers from a shortage of ambulances in Tyr area – South Lebanon. This area contains three official Palestinian refugee camps, namely (Al-Bass, Rashidiya and Burj AlShamali). These camps are inhabited by about 55,000 Palestinian refugees, in addition to many informal settlements in the same area, which are inhabited by approximately 23,000 refugees, and in addition to the Palestinian refugees from Syria and Syrians. PRCS-L currently only has two ambulances in this area. One of them is in a poor condition. In addition to the scarcity of Palestinian organizations that operate ambulances in the area. All of the above casts its weight on the shoulders of the Palestinian society in general on one hand, and on the shoulders of the PRCS-L on the other hand as it operates hospitals and demands of quickly transfer the Palestinian patients when they need that. Hence, the need for two new fully equipped ambulances to transport patients safely and properly with the ability to preserve their lives. In order for PRCS-L to continue its life saving operations, funding has been made available for the procurement of two ambulances (2 times 25.000 EUR). The ambulances will enable PRCS-L to transport patients as safely and quickly as possible. In addition, an amount of 80.000 EUR has been made available to support PRCS-L in its current emergency response operations (including COVID-19). This support includes the rehabilitation of the Balsam hospital in Rashidiyeh camp (30.000 EUR) and for the procurement of medical equipment, medicines and medical supplies (50.000 EUR).

Haiti Landscape Restoration and Community Resilience In Haiti the link between ecosystem degradation and poverty is huge. The NLRC, as part of one of the biggest humanitarian network in the world, is trying to face this challenge by applying disaster risk reduction measures that target not only vulnerable communities but also their degraded ecosystems (Resilience Framework).
A major paradigm shift is needed to reach scale and real lasting impact on the ground, especially in heavy degraded areas, and within the Red Cross organization as a whole (Red Cross Movement).
This program is the fuse of this paradigm shift in the humanitarian sector by supporting the Netherlands Red Cross in kick starting a landscape restoration programme in Haiti to test and showcase a new approach, being the 4 Returns Approach integrated in the Resilience Framework, that can serve as the new operating model within the Red Cross Movement. The Netherlands Red Cross will do this in partnership with the Haitian Red Cross and 4 Returns Partners.
Key achievements are expected to be:
- Support of the Netherlands and the Haitian Red Cross in showcasing that landscape restoration using the 4R4R Approach is an effective strategy for disaster risk reduction and community development;
- Development and showcasing of a replicable, sustainable solution in Haiti for rural development and ecosystem restoration that similar organizations can learn from using the 4R4R Approach;
- Unlocking private capital from other investors through active support from Princess Margriet that in turn will unlock additional donor money for larger implementations of landscape restoration activities all over Haiti, thus causing a financial flywheel effect;
- Upscale and replication of the 4R4R Approach by local people and the stimulation of its adoption within the Red Cross movement, enabling wider application in other degraded areas worldwide;

Maluku Earthquake A magnitude 6.5 earthquake struck the province of Maluku, near the capital of Ambon, Indonesia on 26 September, affecting over 61,000 HH people and displacing over 166,903 people. At least 31 people have been killed and 179 injured. The affected population evacuated from the coast lines due to the fear of a tsunami, while a week after the initial earthquake, the displaced population has not returned to their homes, do to the multiple aftershocks and fear of destruction. The earthquake caused extensive damage to structures like health facilities, schools and bridges and houses, with nearly 2,700 houses damaged.
The primary strategy of the operation is to support those evacuated in Waai and Liang village (and potentially the outer islands), during their emergency evacuation period. PMI has already begun to support these two villages with the distribution of supplies and activities for children, emergency messaging and DRR and Hygiene campaigns. The first week of activities and distributions has proven to not meet the needs in the villages now as the initial assessments are completed, therefore PMI will send additional stocks to cover the remaining families needs, while continue activities for children, and DRR and Hygiene campaigns for 1 month during the emergency evacuation, and return to houses. As there is a risk of disease spreading with limited latrines in the evacuation area, PMI will monitor the health situation, and encourage the use of latrines in peoples homes throughout the day. The IFRC Country Cluster Support Team (CCST) in Jakarta is providing technical support and working in coordination with PMI and supporting communications and media relations needs. affecting over 61,000 HH people and displacing over 166,903 people Maluku- Indonesia

Sudan - Floods The annual rainy season in Sudan usually
lasts from June until October or November,
affecting approximately 200,000 people each
year. The rainy season this year started mid
of July 2018, causing flash floods in the
states bordering South Sudan and Ethiopia.
These states include Kassala, Elgezira,
Northern, West Kordofan and Sennar. Due to the floods, many homes were destroyed, household items and assets were washed away. The need for
tarpaulins, blankets, kitchen sets, mosquito nets, mats and jerry cans have not been fully met to date as the numbers
of the affected people continue to increase with the anticipation of more rains in the coming months in these states.
Provision of shelter items and non-food items will ensure the beneficiary households get protection from diseases,
specifically respiratory illnesses, as well as privacy and dignity. Based on information gathered through the initial needs assessment, the identified needs are related with Nonfood
items, shelter, medical first aid services, tracing services, safe drinking water, health, sanitation and hygiene
awareness. SRCS is in the process of providing initial support to the affected people with the assistance provided
being in line with the findings of their assessments Population to be assisted: 7,500 people (1,500 households) in Kassala and West Kordofan will receive shelter related NFIs and shelter kits in the two States. Kassala, Khartoum, Nahral Neel, Sinnar, Gezira, White Nile, Kordofan and

Partners for Resilience: South Sudan The Strategic Partnership of Partners for Resilience (PfR) is aimed at promoting and improving (attention for) Integrated Risk Management (IRM) in policies, investments and practices of key stakeholders. The ultimate aim is to improve resilience of vulnerable communities who are confronted with disaster risks though better laws and regulations, IRM-proof investments (including screening), and enhanced practices that take better account of their potential to reduce risks. This project focuses on improving resilience in South Sudanees communities.
NLRC lead partner. People world-wide live in disaster-prone areas. Disasters damage the eco-systems they live in and upon which their livelihoods depend. Their vulnerability to disasters is aggrevated by climate change, which increases the frequency, scale and inpredictability of disasters. Eco-systems, if protected and managed well, can play an important role in mitigating the impact of disasters (holding more excess water, sheltering form storms). Partners for Resilience strengthens community resilience by working with civil society organisations on reducing risks and strengthening livelihoods of vulnerable communities, with specific attention for marginalized groups and women. The Integrated Risk Management (IRM) approach bridges time- and spatial scales. It integrates the urgent attention needed for changing risks due to changes in hazards, exposure and vulnerability. IRM includes a specific focus on ecosystem degradation, locally and in the wider landscape, as well as changes in hazards due to climate change (in relation to current risks, nearterm changes and longer-term shifts in climate patterns). IRM thus integrates elements from disaster risk reduction (DRR), climate change adaptation (CCA) and ecosystem management and restoration (EMR). Actions relate to different actors. Four groups are distinguished: Communities, Civil Society organisations (Red Cross, plus PfR partners, other CSOs, organised communities), Government (at various levels), and the private sector. Beneficiaries of the programme are vulnerable communities in disaster-prone conditions. This project focuses on vulnerable communities in South Sudan.

Kenya floods The operation aims to provide immediate assistance to cover the needs of 30,000 households (HHs) (150,000 people) most at risk and affected by floods by providing life-saving assistance for a period of six months. The flooding has led to destruction of houses resulting in displacement of communities. So far, a total of 33,081 HHs (211,155 people) have been displaced in different parts of the country. An unconfirmed number of households are being hosted by relatives. However most of the displaced populations are staying in evacuation centers and need urgent support. In addition, the most affected HHs will need recovery support. Shelter NFIs including kitchen sets, tarpaulins, mosquito nets, jerry cans, soap, sleeping mats, timber and nails will be procured for distribution to the targeted HHs for use in erecting temporary shelters and use in the household items for basic life support activities. Population to be assisted: With the support of the WFP, the KRCS will distribute food to 30,000 HHs. Out of these 30,000 HHs, 10,000 most affected HHs will receive livelihoods support such as distribution of inputs and rehabilitation of farms/irrigation systems.
Priority interventions targeting vulnerable groups to include pregnant and lactating women, children less than five years and people with disabilities will be implemented in most affected counties. Western, Nyanza, North Rift, South Rift, North Eastern, Upper Eastern, Central and Coast regions

Mozambique - Tropical Cyclone Idai Proposed DRM Support to Southern Africa Cluster
The proposed support will focus on strengthening the IFRC and NSs Disaster Risk Management capacities in southern Africa, drawing lessons from the current Tropical Idai Cyclone operation in Mozambique. The Red Cross operation in Mozambique presents a good opportunity that the Red Cross can use to improve its mechanisms for preparedness and response to future events. The preparedness plan for southern Africa will also be linked very closely with the experience of preparedness before the cyclone in Mozambique, which includes but not limited to having Contingency Plans in place, Standard Operating procedures, prepositioning of Non Food Items, prepositioning of people and linkages to other National societies in the region and the Movement components.
Goal: Reduce deaths, injuries and livelihood losses from natural and man-made disasters in Southern Africa Goal: Reduce deaths, injuries and livelihood losses from natural and man-made disasters in Southern Africa Objectives
• IFRC Southern Africa has a clear DRM Strategy to facilitate strategic support to NS, promoting effective preparedness response, by 2020
• To improve the preparedness for response capacities of five NS by 2021

3FM Serious Request 2013: Reducing child mortality due to diarrhoea in the Philippines The project aims to contribute to public health resiliency in Manila. Work centers around assisting urban poor in maintaining health, including diarrhea-related care, and increasing access to and use of safe water and basic sanitation. On the larger scale, the project increases disaster and public health emergency anticipation and response capacities and works towards the prevention of water and sanitation-related diseases. Manila, capital of the Philippines, is one of the most densely-populated cities in the world, most of it urban poor living illegally in squalor. Since much of the population lives illegally in slums, they have no access to government support for sanitation or health care programmes. Young children in Manila are particularly vulnerable in these circumstances, which are also marked by food insecurity and poor nutrition, and in Manila Diarrhea is one of the leading causes of death for children five and under. The project takes a community-centred approach to changing behaviours that will lead to improved health, including work targeted at children. Water and sanitation facilities in communities are also built next to the stockpiling of non-food items, such as household water treatment chemicals and hygiene kits to assist community-level transformation. To build the capacity of Red Cross Philippines, staff and volunteers are trained to help reduce and manage risk. Urban poor in the slums of Manila are the primary beneficiaries of the project. Within this group, caretakers of children and children are targeted. The slums of Manila are the targeted project areas, particularly Barangay 101-Tondo, a community settled in and around garbage dumps. Barangay 101-Tondo, which harbours some of Manila’s most acute cases of diarrhoea, cholera, and typhoid, and has limited access to sanitation for its 25,000-strong population.

UNICEF ECHO HIP 2020 Projet d’amélioration des capacités de préparation et de réponse aux urgences des acteurs locaux et de la résilience des communautés face aux crises climatiques, sociales et épidémiologiques. L’expérience a démontré qu’Haïti est très vulnérable aux épidémies, en témoigne l’épidémie de choléra au cours de laquelle plus de 820 000 cas suspects ont été recensés entre 2010 et 2019 et qui a fait plus de 10 000 morts selon le MSPP. Cette pandémie de Covid-19 s’inscrit donc dans un contexte sanitaire déjà très précaire avec des conséquences potentiellement dramatiques pour la population haïtienne, particulièrement les ménages les plus vulnérables qui ont vu leur situation socio-économique et sanitaire se dégrader continuellement depuis le début de l’année 2018. Au niveau national, il n’y a que 26 sites de prise en charge de Covid-19 soit 1 011 lits pour recevoir les patients, pour une population de 11 millions d’habitants. La CRNL travail en Haïti en étroite coordination avec la CR Haitienne (CRH) comme institution auxiliaire de l’état pour la préparation et la réponse aux urgences (voir coordination avec la DPC), et la Fédération International de la CR (FICR) ainsi que les autres Sociétés Nationales Participantes (SNP) présentes dans le pays. Dans le cadre de cet accord la CRNL s’engage à faciliter la coordination de l’UNICEF avec la CRH, afin d’organiser des activités de préparation et réponse aux urgences avec une couverture dans le Grand-Sud, en cas de nécessitée (ces dernières activités ne sont pas incluses dans le présent projet, mais pourront faire partie d’un accord de partenariat séparé). Au total, la population des communes de Les Anglais, Chardonnières et Tiburon qui bénéficiera des activités du projet sera les élèves de l’école-abri qui sera réhabilité, les personnes utilisant le point d’eau, les 75 volontaires qui seront formés pour appuyer la population en période d’urgence et la population qui sera hébergée dans l’abri en cas d’aléa.
