Provision of Integrated Life-saving Protection Response to Drought -Affected Population in Baidoa;Berdale, Bur

Objectives

In response the growing the humanitarian needs in the country due to the devastating drought situation SOS CVS is proposing an integrated CP, GBV and HLP interventions with aim of addressing the acute protection needs of the affected populations in Baidoa, Berdale, Burhakaba and Qansax Dheere in Bay region. SOS CVs will primarily target newly displaced IDPs including children at risk of abuse, violence, exploitation and neglect including UASC vulnerable women and girls with heightened GBV risk including GBV survivors and supporting IDP communities with insecure land tenures. The project will target the following IDP camps ()Balad amar, Bilal, Buulo jay, Buulo Tugeer, Edaan Qaboobe and Hagaray IDP camps in Baidoa, Aray, Holwadag, Masusow and Waberi in Burhakaba and All Xamdu, Badbaado, Bakaro, Barwaqo, Bulsho and Camp Eyle In Bardel and Busle, Buulo Abag and Maanyow IDp camps in Qasaxdhere. The main objective of the proposed integrated protection project is to address holistically the acute protection needs by providing prevention and responsive interventions. The integrated protection response is designed to improve the protection of the target children, girls and women from abuse, violence and exploitation through provision of CP /GBV comprehensive case management support including rapid identification, tracing and family reunification services for those at risk of family separations, GBV survivor centered services, PSS/PFA services. SOS CV will engage with the authority and community in secure land for the IDPs in Baidoa. SOS CV will be strengthening CM systems by strengthening the capacity of the frontline CM staff, facilitate service mapping specially newly established IDP camps and updating of referral pathways. SOS CV will closely be working with GBV and CP state-level coordinators and partners to ensure coherent response to protection needs of the populations. SOS will scale-up the provision of case management services by deploying trained social workers in sites the new IDPs are settling into as the needs are high in those sites, a total 300 children will be targeted for the CM. SOS CV will support the arrangement and placement of 200 UC in interim care. and will provide support during the care arrangement. SOS CV will initiate family tracing and reunification exercise for all UASC using the CPMIS + and CM SOPs. The project will provide PSS support to 4000 children such as sports activities, indoor games and other interactive plays, counselling services and life-skills sessions. Existing CFS will be supported with additional resources including maintenance and small rehabilitations as deemed necessary. IDP sites without no existing CFS will have mobile CFS team who provide PSS activities within the camp. The project will support two existing CFS in Baidoa and will establish two mobile CFS Burhakaba and Berdale. Each CFS will have 2 animators and 1 social worker while CP officer will have the overall supervision of the work. The two static CFS have disaggregated WASH facilities with hand washing standing. 4 recreational kits will be procured for PSS programs The project will support IDPs with land insecurity by verifying land ownership, creating conducive environment for dialogue between land owners and community by facilitating access to land, supporting and facilitate proper agreement between the stakeholders including the development and reviews of the land tenure documents. The interventions will help new IDPs have secured and agreed land tenures. The proposed interventions will be reinforced and strengthen the protection of the drought affected populations and will significantly contribute in reduction of the protection risks increased safety and community wellbeing in the midst of the drought condition. Total 16 IDP sites will be supported with HLP services

Strengthening the Protection and Lifesaving of 9,420 people (1,570hhs) in IDP sites through Shelter NFIs assi

Objectives

This project is intended to strengthen the protection and lifesaving of displacement affected communities in the assessed IDP sites in Kaxda and Daynile districts in Mogadishu through Shelter amp NFIs response as per cluster-specific objectives. This project is part of complementarity integrated multi-sectoral packages including CCCM and Protection (HLP, GBV, CP, amp GP) with other humanitarian organizations to jointly implement this package for these districts CCCM amp HLP for NoFYL, IRRDO for GBV, SSWC for GP, and CP for SWDC to address acute humanitarian needs of same sites and same populations. The project is prioritizing most vulnerable IDP families including women, girls, persons with disabilities and women headed households. In order to ensure centrality of protection the project will use community participatory approach in collaboration with different levels of the community including marginalized groups as well as camp committees who have already participated during assessment survey and project designing stage. This project is specifically designed to directly assist 9,420 people (1,570HHs) selected from 15 IDP sites (5 in Kaxda and 10 in Daynile districts) through survey assessment conducted by HINNA in terms of their vulnerability criteria in shelter and NFIs assistance including women: 1,507, men: 1,507, boys: 3,203, and girls: 3203. The IDP sites assessed include: (1) Baarliin, (2) Ciidyare, (3) Bismillaah, (4) Yaaqle 2 and (5)Saacid in Kaxda district, and (1)Duco-waalid, (2)Hadii la yaabo Yasinka, (3) Maalincad, (4) Iimey, (5) Yaa Allah, (6) Guryasamo, (7) Ismahurto, (8) Maansoor, (9) Banooda, (10) Oromada in Daynile. During the survey assessment, the target IDP communities of this project have collectively demanded in-kind distribution of NFIs and direct construction of ESKs intervention rather than the cash-based approach that can contribute to local inflation and poses security risks. They have also mentioned that IDPs and landowners have jointly agreed three to five years of land tenure with the presence of the existing camp committees and local authorities. In summary, the project will directly construct 1570 ESKs and distrribute1570 NFIs to same beneficiaries of 1570hhs (9,420 individuals) as each IDP family will receive one constructed shelter and one NFI kit. At the onset of the project, 200 from community levels will be mobilized and sensitized on project scope and information as well as the beneficiaries’ selection process. PCM/PDM exercise will be conducted four to six weeks after the construction and distribution to know more about the future preference of IDP communities. A Complaint Response and Feedback Mechanism (CRFM) will be set up so that anyone with complaints about the beneficiaries’ selection process or any other issue will be able to complain. A hot-line will be available for anyone to forward his/her complaints. Secondly, complaints will be channeled through CRFM desk attendants and HINNA MampE team on the ground, settlement leaders and community elders. The project will consider the protection mainstreaming of gender and GBV related issues, as well as disability inclusion is matter in both the response and it’s monitoring to ensure safety and dignity as well as accountability to the affected target populations.

Provision of Integrated Emergency Support Through Protection, CCCM, and Shelter Interventions in IDP Settlemen

Objectives

The proposed integrated intervention will scale up access to quality CCCM, HLP, CP, GBV, and Shelter/NFIs services in Kaxda and Deynille. NoFYL will implement a multi-cluster intervention around CCCM and HLP. This project will fill existing gaps in ESNFI, CCCM, HLP, GBV, and Child protection support and complement activities undertaken under other ongoing projects. On CCCM NoFYL aims at strengthening coordination structures through training, improving the coordination of service providers, service monitoring and mapping to identify gaps, community-led site maintenance activities to ensure the upkeep of sites, support governance structures to ensure community participation and self-management of sites and information management at a site level, site improvement activities to minimize protection risks and ensure safety in sites and safety audits to identify site risks. Scale-up inter-sector CFMs and conduct site decongestion activities to minimize protection risks at target sites. On HLP, intervention NoFYL will undertake eviction risk assessments and monitoring of threats to evictions by assessing potential eviction sites to inform the response. Provision of case management services, legal counseling around land tenure documentation, provision of post-eviction cash-based response packages, and coordinating referrals to other complementary services. ESNFI intervention will be complemented by Shelter partners by improving the IDPs living conditions through the distribution of emergency NFI kits and emergency shelter kits. Any cases that are identified by NoFYL monitors with Shelter needs will be referred to Shelter partners for support. Child Protection (CP) case management will be spearheaded by SWDC, identified children at risk or traumatized children will be referred for support, an incident of family separation will be reported to SWDC for tracing and reunification purposes. Joint safety walks and mapping will be conducted to identify risks for children. Referrals networks will be strengthened and coordinated for safer and timely responses. NoFYL will implement these activities in sites in Deynille (10) and Kaxda (5). 6,112 households, approximately 36,675 (10,368 men, 14760 women, 5,227, boys, 6320 girls) will benefit from this intervention, as well as the whole community working in these sites including local authorities, clusters, and other organizations. The multi-sectoral approach will be useful to create synergies enabling the concentration of services and expertise within the same location and the same population leading to achieving a greater impact. The four partners (NoFYL, SSWC, and SWDC) will build on each other strengths and better complement each other to ensure community acceptance and success in implementation. The synergy between the 3 sectoral partners will ensure sound management of the program, greater impact, efficiency, and more cost-effective operations.
