Addressing the emergency humanitarian needs of drought-affected IDPs through integrated Shelter/NFIs and HLP s
Objectives
This project is an integrated intervention of two sectors – Shelter and HLP. It is designed to address the risk of famine and improve the protection and lifesaving through shelter/NFIs and HLP response to the drought-affected IDP populations in Baidoa district of Bay region - South West State (SWS). This integrated response is strategically linked with the SHF RA4 2022 for famine prevention. Importantly, this integrated shelter/NFIs and HLP project is targeting the same IDP sites/locations with other sectors for convergence in Badioa. The action based on this grant, HINNA intends to reach 43,516 drought-affected populations – 27,516 for shelter/NFIs and 16,000 for HLP (7,252hhs) in total in Eight (8) IDP sites in Baidoa including minority IDP site through adequate access to each sector in order to meet different needs of the people of concern. The project will use community participatory approach in collaboration with different levels of the community as well as established camp committees who have already participated during assessment survey and project designing stage. Through the selection of project beneficiaries, HINNA will employ predetermined selection criterion by two clusters in work closely with partners in the same location who are implementing other sectors programs for ensuring the integrated response is delivered to people in need for convergence with more consideration of gender mainstreaming. HINNA's main shelter activities is to assist 4,586 IDP HHs (27,516 individuals) in the construction of 1,686 Emergency Shelter Kits (ESKs) to 1,686 IDP HHs and distribution of 2,900 NFIs to 2900 IDP HHs through in-kind modality, It is worthy to note that 1686 hhs who received ESKs will also receive 1686 NFIs due to their vulnerability needs for both ESKs amp NFIs, meant that 1,214 hhs is to receive NFIs only, the total remains 2900 NFIs + 1686 ESKs = 4586hhs. Through selection criteria the project will give more priority the inclusion of persons with disabilities, marginalized and minorities HHs, female-headed HH, pregnant amp lactating women within the project in the project cycle. 4 to 6 weeks after construction and distribution, PCM/PDM will be carried out through hired enumerators to assess the impact on the services and satisfaction level of beneficiaries for future intervention and lesson learned also CRFM will be conducted in the project period. Through HLP response, the project intends to address the HLP issues of drought-affected populations to improve access to and their ability to claim and enjoy their HLP rights. The HLP, as part of integration package with shelter/NFIs in line with SHF SA4 2022, is also to target the same IDP sites by assisting 2,666hhs (16,000 individuals) to enable safe and protective environment, shelter beneficiaries are being considered as primary beneficiaries. In order to ensure the achievement of proposed actions specific to HLP sector the following steps will be taken: HINNA will undertake comprehensive due diligence exercise including land verifications to ensure land allocations are aligned to due diligence requirements and the ownership is secured through legal documentation. The process will include the engagement of project stakeholders though consultative workshops, FGDs, and preparation of due diligence report to facilitate processing of land tenure documents. Community paralegals will be engaged in the consultations with communities and key stakeholders. Furthermore, with support of local government and project communities, beneficiaries will be supported to obtain land tenure documents (occupancy certificates and land tenure agreements). This process will entail beneficiary identification, verification of documents and payment of land tenure fees (notarization costs), printing and facilitating the distribution of land tenure documents.
To ensure IDP children (girls and boys) benefit from safe primary education in emergencies inside K7-K15 IDP c
Objectives
The objective of this project is to provide access to primary education in emergencies for 1,646 IDP children (823m, 823f) in Banadir (K7-K15) through conditional and restricted vouchers for school fees and for learning materials each for the second and third term in the school year 2016/2017 which can be redeemed at Temporary Learning Spaces (TLS) and in contracted shops. The vouchers will be handed out to the parents/guardians (P/G), mostly single mothers, of the learners. The eligible shops have a framework agreement with the Somali partner of Diakonie Katastrophenhilfe (DKH), Daryeel Bulsho Guud (DBG), for the distribution of relief items against vouchers including learning materials. The vendors are assessed for their capacity to supply the items listed on the voucher for the number of beneficiaries in the area. This project will compliment two other projects currently been implemented DKH and its local partner DBG in the K7-K15 IDP camps and one in planning. In the first component, through funding from the German Bureau of Foreign Affairs (AA), DKH is implementing a 15 months’ (start 01/04/2016) multi-sectoral project in the K7-K15 IDP Camps in Mogadishu. The AA-project plans, amongst objectives in other sectors, the construction of 30 TLS which comply with International Network for Education in Emergencies (INEE) standards in the camps along Afgooye Road. Each TLS shall be composed by 4 classrooms. The camp community shall make an active contribution to the identification of the construction site. Important aspects are the safety of the place and the negotiation of the communities with the land owners to ensure temporary land tenure for the TLS. The classrooms with the measurements of 5 by 8 meters shall host 24 students and 1 teacher each. The AA project will also mobilize 150 teachers from the IDP community to form 30 Teacher Associations (TA), one for each TLS, and train them in Education in Emergencies (EIE). The TLS will be handed over to the TA after construction. Exit strategy for comp. 1 is that the TA will be the owners of the TLS already during a part of the project period. Component 2 concerns the training of TA in Management and Operation. DKH through means from the German Federal Ministry for Economy and Cooperation (BMZ) supports income generating activities (IGA) for IDPs in the same camps. A TA shall operate one TLS as an IGA thus generating teachers’ incentives and operational costs for the TLS through education fees. The BMZ-project will train the TA in business management and the operation of the TLS as private sector institutions and follow-up on the application of the learned stuff. The TA will continue to run the TLS as learning institutions after the end of the project as their own IGA. Components 1 and 2 are a boost to setup the infrastructure that is capable to enrol 3000 children and that can continue self-sustained as IGA. Component 3 and the overall objective of DKH’s education programme is to enrol 2880 IDP children (1440f) in gender parity from the IDP camps along Afgooye road. The present proposal will take on one part of this objective. The target group are children in the age between 5 and 12 years of single female headed households (SFHH) with complex vulnerability that is often gender based and that limit the capacity to earn money. The number of beneficiaries that is not covered through this project will be covered through an anticipated funding provided by Caritas Germany combined with DKH own funds. This will be a project on its own and it will apply the same approach as the presently proposed SHF project. The poorest and most vulnerable IDP households, especially SFHH, may remain in need of external aid for school fees as long as their livelihood situation would not change. Therefore, as an exit strategy, DKH will continue to raise funding for vouchers for education for their children. The BMZ project also targets the same group for gender based IGAs.

Target Groups
The project is aligned with GEF focal area CCM-3-8, i.e. “Foster enabling conditions for mainstreaming mitigation concerns into sustainable development strategies through capacity building initiative for transparency.” The project will contribute to the improvement of local and global environmental conditions through enhancing transparency related to GHG emissions, impacts of climate change, and mitigation and adaptation actions in the country. Strengthened MRV will allow the government to better assess investments in mitigation and adaptation measures, and may result in more efficient expenditures on climate-related activities, which in turn could optimize reductions in GHG emissions. Improved MRV will also allow the government to compare the relative costs and benefits of mitigation and adaptation measures so that it will be able to highlight and support cost-effective, high-impact adaptation measures. This project contributes to the country’s commitments under the UNFCCC to enable it to address climate change considerations (mitigation of GHG emissions and reduction of vulnerability to climate change). project activities contribute directly to increasing the extent to which state institutions base their actions on the principals of sustainable development and increasing the capacities of public actors to implement, monitor, and evaluate policies related to environment, climate change and nature protection. The enhanced MRV system to be proposed under Component 2 is designed to avoid duplication and result in an efficient system that will reduce time burdens and costs to state institutions in data collection and analysis. The project will also assist the country in achieving the SDG 13 by supporting the integration of climate change measures into national policies, strategies and planning; building knowledge and improving education, awareness-raising and human and institutional capacity on climate change mitigation, adaptation, impact reduction and early warning, and promotion of mechanisms for raising capacity for effective climate change-related planning and management in the country. The project will also contribute to achieving SDG5 by supporting empowerment of women in decision-making, land ownership and through gender-sensitive budgeting.
Rehabilitation and provision of productive assets for communities suffering from settler violence and annexati
Objectives
The project will contribute to the HRP strategic objectives 2 amp 3, the HF allocation strategy objective of supporting the livelihoods of food-insecure households in the West Bank and the FSS cluster strategic objective 1 to protect livelihoods of vulnerable households, and restore / enhance their resilience, food security and productive capacity. It will do so by ensuring rehabilitation and provision of productive assets and inputs for farmers owned lands in Area C located in 5 villages in Ramallah Governorate (Budrus, Ni'lin, Qibya, Rantis, and Shuqba). The selected areas are facing specific challenges to cultivate their lands due to different measures imposed by the occupation regime including settler violence, demolition, confiscation, the separation wall, and the annexation plan. The project is based on a needs assessment conducted by PUI in early December 2021 that identified the most pressing needs of vulnerable farmers and communities affected by the Israeli plans of annexation and subject to either settler related incidents or violations from the Israeli forces. In addition, PUI coordinated with FSS, MoA Central and MoA directorate of Ramallah, in order to identify and prioritize FSS needs, priorities, and localities in this Governorate. In order to respond to the identified needs and to contribute to the HRP, HF and cluster objectives of this first allocation, PUI and Al'ard will provide two types of assistance: - Support 330 vulnerable farmers working in lands adjacent to the settlements or the wall, whose livelihoods are threatened by occupation measures. Agricultural roads will be rehabilitated (10 km), which will increase a safe access to lands and contribute to preventing land confiscations. - Provide cisterns to other 10 farmers to enhance the supplementary irrigation to trees and crops in their lands that are subjected to attacks and intimidation from settlers or / and Israeli Forces. -Provide 20 women farmers whose lands are located in areas that require prior coordination with the Israeli authorities to access, or close to the separation wall with olive harvest machines to support the harvesting during olive harvest season. In total, 330 farmers’ households (1617 individuals) will benefit directly from the Action. Selection criteria for those farmers is depending mainly on the socio-economic vulnerability criteria. It is based also on technical criteria including topography of the land, slope percentage, soil depth, land ownership, and planted trees (in addition to protection and vulnerability considerations, including IHL violations, close to settlement, the separation wall, and access restricted areas, female headed-households, households with people with disabilities, etc.). The project will be implemented in partnership with Al'ard and each organization will bring their expertise to the partnership: Al'ard supporting agriculture from a development perspective focusing on water activities and PUI rehabilitating lands and assets, easing access and providing support to farmers with a protection lens through emergency and protective responses to settler-related incidents. Furthermore, the project will complement the Action of the West Bank Protection Consortium by covering a need gap in the provision of assistance and livelihood support to vulnerable farmers in Area C. Besides, PUI will mobilize its Consortium experience (tools, methodology, and network) to strengthen its intervention during the lifetime of the project. PUI will also be vigilant in mainstreaming protection, gender and other cross-cutting issues throughout service provision. By recognizing the different needs, risks, and capacities of different age, gender and diversity (AGD) groups, PUI ensures tailored and safe responses for those who need them the most. Moreover, PUI has a robust reporting and handling system in place for Sexual Exploitation and Abuse (SEA) related complaints.
