Qualora sia disponibile, allegare eventuale rapporto. [max 1 pagina]. Southern Somalia is in humanitarian emergency, and famine has been declared in two regions by the government and UN. Somalia FSNAU expects famine to spread across all regions of the south in the coming two months. The declaration is based on severely reduced food access, acute malnutrition and crude mortality findings from 11 nutritional surveys conducted by FSNAU in July An estimated 3.7 million Somalis are in crisis countrywide, with 3.4 million people in CSZ Somalia being in humanitarian emergency and famine. The total failure of 2010 Deyr rains and poor performance of 2011Gu rains have resulted in crop failure, reduced labor demand, poor livestock body condition, and excess animal mortality. Reduced availability of cereals, trade restriction, and high transport costs due to rising fuel prices have pushed local cereal prices to record levels, eroding purchasing power across livelihood groups. Local cereal prices have risen by % over the last year in some places in southern Somalia. Kilogram of maize per sale of one head of local quality goat has declined from 120kg to 30kg since September 2010 in southern Somalia. Wage terms of trade have similarly deteriorated. Cereal prices will remain high at least until next major harvest due in January 2012, assuming Deyr rains in October will be normal. Acute malnutrition exceeds 38% most surveys conducted by FSNAU in July, and is highest within agro-pastoral communities in Bay, Bakol and Gedo where GAM prevalence exceeds 50%. The nutrition crisis is exacerbated by limited access to safe water for drinking and poor hygiene practices and resulting in AWD outbreaks. Sanitation situation is particularly poor in crowded IDP and transit settlements. Children are worst affected with under 5 death rates between 4-13/10,000/day in the southern Somalia. Poor and destitute families are abandoning their villages and migrating to urban areas as IDPs and to refugee camps to access food and adopting other erosive coping mechanisms such as sale of core assets. Women bear the biggest burden of current crisis desperately trekking long distances with their children for assistance and caring for sick. Limited assistance is reaching the affected population due to humanitarian access restrictions. Migration by hungry people from villages in main food producing areas in southern Somalia portends major risk of losing the Deyr season (rain predicted to be normal), which will be catastrophic deepening and extending the crisis further. Key stakeholders in present crisis include authorities in target locations (to facilitate access), traders (sourcing, transporting and stocking needed commodities), nutrition centres and hospitals, individuals, and organization responding to the crisis, clusters and coordination bodies (for standards and proper coordination), and donors (to provide resources) The declaration of famine in southern Somalia is based on severely reduced food access, acute malnutrition and crude mortality findings from 11 nutritional surveys conducted by FSNAU in July Assessment findings indicate livestock holding reduced by over 50% in most pastoral and agro-pastoral areas due to deaths during the Jilaal, due to lack of pastures and water. Farmers normally rely on own production for food, but most people are now relying on borrowing and begging, taking food on debts and purchase from the market. Diet diversity is limited, with most people accessing limited quantities of cereals, sugar and oil. Pulses are not available in markets in Bay and Middle Juba regions, and are very expensive in central regions and Gedo. There are very limited income earning opportunities for poor households, and big competition for limited opportunities between urban poor and drought IDPs flocking the towns. Moreover wage to cereals terms of trade had declined substantially across all areas surveyed, but more in the south. Over 80% of expenditure of most households surveyed is going to food. The other major expense items are water, health and transport. 86% of households interviewed have debts related to food, water and health 3

4 services. For the pastoralists, milk production has declined and livestock has migrated to areas with pastures away from settlements. Pastoral households also reported that one requires on average three head local quality goat to access same quantity of cereals they could get with one goat at the same time last year. Many desperate families have sold their core breeding stock to be able to access food, while some have been left with nothing and moved to towns to beg for food. All farmers interviewed had exhausted their grain stock from 2010 Gu harvest. No yields are expected from 2011 Gu crop in most agropastoral areas (especially Gedo), while high cost of fuel has hampered production in riverine areas. Coping strategies mostly used by families interviewed are reducing number and size of meals, taking food on credit, and migrating to towns to beg. Over 80% of households surveyed use water from unprotected sources and do not treat water at households. Latrine coverage is estimated at 18% for surveyed households. Occurrence of diarrhea in the households in the past two weeks was confirmed in 58% of households' surveyed. Diarrhea cases are mainly among children under 5 years, and elderly adults. The survey findings demonstrate need for urgent humanitarian assistance to provide food access to the families in crisis to prevent starvation and acute malnutrition. Provision of safe water for drinking, safe sanitation facilities and hygiene awareness promotion is needed to reduce extremely high incidence of diarrhea among children and help address malnutrition. Considering major depletion of household assets and capacities, livelihood assistance through provision of agricultural inputs and income earning opportunities is required to support early recovery and improve food security 2. STRATEGIA GENERALE DELL ASSOCIATO / GENERAL STRATEGY 2.1 Strategia paese / Strategy in the country Fornire indicazioni sulla presenza e il lavoro già svolto nell area o nella regione, dando particolare risalto ai collegamenti esistenti con il presente programma. [max 1 pagina]. COOPI program in Somalia aims at saving lives and contributing towards the improvement of livelihood support systems, prevention of its deterioration and improving living standards of pastoralist, agropastoralist, IDPs and other vulnerable groups. This is achieved through the implementation of strategic and appropriate interventions that positively impact the livelihood support system of target groups, in coordination with other actors. The Cash Based Response to increase access to basic needs and assets protection of the population have been implemented by COOPI in different regions across South, Central and Puntland in Somalia for the last 3 years with a positive impact in the communities targeted. The combination of conditional vouchers (food and water) together with cash for work scheme and livelihood support vouchers is showing a cost effectiveness in meeting the immediate needs and supports early recovery of the population in humanitarian crisis. COOPI implements emergency and development projects in Somalia with emphasis on regional and multisectoral programming and applying participatory approaches. Emergency interventions implemented focus on life saving actions and building the beneficiaries livelihood support mechanisms, traditional copings systems and asset base. To enhance sustainability of interventions, special attention is given to capacity building, environmental protection, gender mainstreaming and socio-economic impacts. The experience gained by the organization in the area has aided in targeting the most vulnerable households in need of emergency support. Rapid assessments, evaluations and surveys avail the different strategies proposed. COOPI has learned to work in areas characterized by uncertain political and volatile security situation and adopted cautious implementation strategies and approaches in order to address arising conflicts and reduce the risks. The core strength of COOPI in operating in such an environment is the application of humanitarian principles while implementing activities, focusing on the most vulnerable. COOPI advocates for a multisectoral approach mainly focused in food security, WASH and health; targeting the nutrition situation of the population as final impact. The current on-going actions are: Emergency Livelihood and WASH intervention in Somalia. ECHO (Sep 2010 to Nov 2011) 4

Those proposals will be part of the financial planning of the program and mainly submitted to: ERF, Irish Aid, CAFOD, UNICEF, AGIRE and other donors interested to collaborate. Some of these proposals have been already submitted and unofficially approved awaiting for the agreement. This action is designed within the framework of COOPI strategy in Somalia. On-going interventions in the area complete each other in order to have a greater impact. COOPI has not planned other projects within the same time-frame, targeting similar activities in the same geographical locations, as planned for this Action. Due to the immensity of the current humanitarian crisis situation and the need to respond in a consistent way, the Action will be co-funded by several donors, but following the same overall work plan, budget and planning. Coordination at the field level between COOPI staffs, the cluster leads and other actors have been streamlined. To ensure that overlap and double funding with other interventions is avoided, the overall strategy and the Action have been shared with OCHA and each of the related clusters involved and coordinating the emergency response (Livelihood, Food Aid, WASH and Health). 2.2 Esperienze precedenti / Previous operations Indicare esperienze nell implementazione di programmi simili a quello presentato.

7 Beneficiaries Description Pastoralists Agropastoralists / Riverine IDPs Urban Poor Livestock owners whose assets have been depleted/reduced due to limited pasture and water availability as a result of prolonged dry conditions. The Pastoralists have limited access to food and income due to poor livestock body condition and productivity. Destitute farmers who have lost their crop due to poor successive season of rain and for the riverine low river levels. They have limited income and food access. Agricultural productivity has farther been hampered by limited availability of seeds and increased fuel prices. As a result there are low agriculture employment opportunities. Internally Displaced People comprising victims of drought, conflict and civil insecurity, with limited social support due to the crisis. They increase competition for few casual jobs and small scale trading opportunities available, which can cause tensions with the hosts. Others engage in negative coping strategies such as joining militia, piracy or charcoal burning. Urban poor dwellers who have migrated from rural to urban areas. They lack employment and have to contend with sky rocketing food prices of mainly imported commodities as they are market dependent for food access. They live from small scale businesses such as sale of groceries, food items and clothing, together with providing unskilled labour to meet their needs. These business have collapsed and weakened due to unpaid debts those eroding their purchasing power. The entire population of the regions targeted are considered as catchments population of the Action: Region Urban Rural Total (UNDP 2005) Bay 126, , ,562 Middle Juba 54, , ,877 Gedo 81, , ,378 Galgadud 58, , ,077 Mudug* 80, , ,099 TOTAL 402,848 1,327,498 1,867,993 *Mudug total includes IDPs separately Entire populations in target districts are directly or indirectly affected by the present crisis. In absence of adequate humanitarian assistance, many destitute families are hosted by relatives who have to share whatever little food they may have with those starving in line with Somali and Islamic values. With migration of thousands of starving people from rural areas, town residents have to contend with increased congestion, deteriorating sanitation conditions (increased garbage and open defecation), increased disease incidence, competition for resources and services (such as hospitals), and increased environmental destruction (for firewood and sale of bush products). Assistance by this action allows the destitute families resume their normal lives relieving the burdened population in catchments areas. Livelihood support to affected families will allow them to resume normal productive activities such as farming and animal treatment which reduces prevalence of livestock diseases in the target areas. This will increase food availability, resulting in lowering of food prices which also affect catchments population. Cash for work opportunities boosts and supports local economic activities benefiting the traders, spurning job creation and prosperity for all. It reduces competition for the few income earning opportunities in the target areas. Productive assets (water pans, roads, environmental clean-up and irrigation infrastructure) created through cash for work activities benefit the entire catchments population. Improved environmental sanitation conditions (garbage collection and construction of latrines) benefits entire population in an area, and not just selected beneficiaries. 7

[Max 3 pagine] FOOD SECURITY Activity 1.1 Provide conditional vouchers to 10,000 HH in humanitarian crisis to access food in the target locations: Activity targets 10,000 families in humanitarian crisis in Bay, Middle Juba and Gedo regions in Southern Somalia, and IDPs in Mudug Region in Central Somalia. It is designed to provide for immediate family food needs in sufficient quantities, and ensuring basic nutritional needs are met. Starving families in humanitarian catastrophe and emergency are targeted both in rural and urban areas. Assistance in rural settlements is considered critical to stem desperate migration by starving families to towns and IDP settlements and support early recovery of livelihoods. Target groups and local stakeholders will be sensitized on the action aims, expected results, approaches, beneficiary selection criteria and scope of assistance. Gender and conflict sensitive approaches will be applied to constitute inclusive Village Relief Committees (VRC) at each of the target settlement/location. Beneficiary selection will be done through VRCs and local health/nutrition facilities as per the inter-cluster strategy. Beneficiary selection criteria prioritizes families with children suffering malnutrition and attending OTPs or admitted at hospitals due to severe malnutrition; families with biggest food access gaps, depleted assets, high debt levels (food-related) and without external social support; and female headed households, and vulnerable minority groups. Food assistance to families is based on average access gaps in the target district (in relation to FSNAU minimum food basket, and minimum energy requirements of 2100 Kcal/person/day as per SPHERE standards). Food voucher includes cereals, vegetable oil, sugar and pulses where available. The food vouchers will range in value between /family/month, to meet the access gap. Appraisal and profiling of selected families will be done before registration to verify food access status, and to provide baseline for monitoring project impacts. Beneficiary lists will be open to public scrutiny, and mechanisms for project information dissemination and complaints put in place. The beneficiaries together with relief committees at each settlement will identify local reputable traders /vendors (considering women traders as well) where the food vouchers will be redeemed. The selected vendors will sign MoU with COOPI, incorporating as a key requirement safety of food supplied. Selected families will receive vouchers on monthly basis. Food types and quantity given to each beneficiary family will be fixed for each month, and depends on local markets (availability and price). Mainly, food vouchers give access to: 50/70 kgs of cereals (maize, rice or sorghum, depending on the availability and/or prices), 4 kgs of puises (beans, pears etc.), 3 liters of vegetable oil, and 2.5 kgs of sugar. In those places where there are no puises, these are compensated by an increased amount mainly of cereals. For ease of planning and to get best value from the markets, price of food commodities with selected vendors will be fixed for each month. The voucher content will be reviewed each month considering availability and prices in the open market to avoid market distortions. The vendors list will be reviewed monthly, to retain those with most competitive prices. Monthly vouchers for food will be given until the end of the year. Vendors will be reimbursed for vouchers redeemed through money transfer companies, after verification by the village relief committee and project staff. Action adopts do-no-harm principles and approaches. Continuous monitoring will ensure that there are no market distortions by project activities, and also ethical practices by vendors and project staff. Project Officers will be responsible for distribution of vouchers and monitoring of activity. 9

10 AGIRE s funds will be addressed to the provision of conditional vouchers (mainly food vouchers) to the target population in the selected areas. Specifically, AGIRE s contribution, will enable the distribution of about vouchers (50 /HH/month) to cover people (2.928 HH). Activity 1.2 Engage 10,000 members from HH in humanitarian crisis in short term cash for work activities Activity targets the same families selected to receive emergency food and water vouchers. The activity will be preceded by re-sensitization of target groups involving the VRCs. This activity commences in November after the initial acute emergency phase is over, and target groups are on a recovery path. It is designed to get families back to work, and discourage entrenching of the dependency syndrome. Cash for work opportunities will provide income for families to meet their priority needs, and support creation or rehabilitation of productive assets (water and irrigation infrastructure, roads, garbage collection etc). Each of the families will earn 25 /month for full participation in selected cash for work activities (generally works that can be performed by women). To avoid disruption of normal household livelihood strategies (such as farming activities), households will be required to provide an able adult to work 3 hours/day for 3 days each week. This leaves adequate time for families to attend to other chores especially for women. Action will provide tools required for the selected activities and technical support as necessary for implementation of selected activities. VRC members together with project staff will supervise and oversee the implementation of cash for work activities by the beneficiaries. After verification of works done by the VRC members and project staff, a family will receive a voucher covering payments for the work done each week. The voucher will be redeemed from the local money vendor. Cash for work activities will reinforce food assistance before the 2011 Deyr crop harvest in January Activity 1.3 Provide vouchers to 8,000 HH in humanitarian crisis to access agriculture inputs Activity supports early recovery of the agricultural livelihoods through provision of basic agricultural inputs - seeds, fodder and/or veterinary drugs. Activity targets 8,000 households (from the 10,000 families selected to receive emergency food and water vouchers) that depend on crop production and or livestock for their livelihoods. This activity will be preceded by re-sensitization of target groups involving the VRCs. 3,147 farmers from riverine and agro-pastoral zones in Bay, Middle Juba and Gedo Regions will receive seed vouchers to get sorghum/maize/sesame seeds from pre-selected vendors. The selection of seed types and vendors to supply seeds will be done involving beneficiaries and the VRC. The seed vouchers valued at 25/farmer/season are anticipated for 2011 Deyr planting season. The vouchers allow each family to plant at least one hectare (expected to produce Kg maize or sorgum/hectare). 4,853 families (pastoral and agro-pastoral) will receive vouchers to access quality livestock drugs and fodder according to the needs. Selected families will receive drug voucher valued at 14 /month for 3 months from pre-selected veterinary pharmacies in each area. Actual treatment will be administered by members of professional veterinary association active in the targeted areas. Selection of pharmacies to provide quality veterinary drugs will be done involving beneficiaries and the VRCs. This assistance mainly covers de-worming during the rainfall seasons when there is preponderance of worm infestations in livestock. The distribution of vouchers and monitoring of this activity will be done through project officers who have technical background in relevant agricultural fields. Activity 1.4 Provide essential inputs for small scale business to 2,000 IDPs and urban poor HH Activity targets 2,000 non-agricultural households (from the 10,000 families selected for emergency food and water vouchers), comprising mainly urban poor and IDPs. Target families rely on petty trading such sale of grocery, food items and clothing for their livelihood. It is designed to support rejuvenation of many small businesses that have collapsed or are doing poorly due to low sales and debts. Identification of the 2,000 beneficiary families will be preceded by re-sensitization of target groups involving the VRCs. The beneficiaries will be selected involving the VRCs and as per guidelines of the Somalia cash based response working group. The business of selected families will be assessed, and supported through vouchers to access appropriate inputs. Selection of vendors to supply required business inputs will be done involving beneficiaries and the VRC. Beneficiaries will get vouchers worth 25 /month for two months to purchase inputs and boost their business. Project officers with experience with small scale business in IDP settlements and urban poor contexts will supervise and monitor this activity. 10

11 WATER AND SANITATION Activity 2.1 Provide water vouchers to 10,000 HH in humanitarian crisis Activity targets 10,000 families in humanitarian crisis in Bay, Middle Juba and Gedo regions in Southern Somalia, and IDPs in Mudug Region in Central Somalia. It is designed to provide for immediate family water needs in sufficient quantities, and ensuring basic needs are met. Assistance in rural settlements is considered critical to stem desperate migration by families to towns and IDP settlements and support early recovery of livelihoods. Target groups and local stakeholders will be sensitized on the action aims, expected results, approaches, beneficiary selection criteria and scope of assistance. Gender and conflict sensitive approaches will be applied to constitute inclusive Village Relief Committees (VRC) at each of the target settlement/location. Beneficiary selection will be done through VRCs and local health/nutrition facilities as per the inter-cluster strategy. Beneficiary selection criteria prioritizes families with children suffering malnutrition and attending OTPs or admitted at hospitals due to severe malnutrition; families with biggest food access gaps, depleted assets, high debt levels (food-related) and without external social support; and female headed households, and vulnerable minority groups. Water assistance to families is based on average access gaps in the target district (WASH Cluster emergency standards). The water vouchers will range in value between /family/month, depending on location and season. Appraisal and profiling of selected families will be done before registration to verify water access status, and to provide baseline for monitoring project impacts. Beneficiary lists will be open to public scrutiny, and mechanisms for project information dissemination and complaints put in place. The beneficiaries together with relief committees at each settlement will identify local reputable traders /vendors (considering women traders as well) where the water vouchers will be redeemed. The selected vendors will sign MoU with COOPI, incorporating as a key requirement safety of water supplied. Selected families will receive vouchers on monthly basis. For ease of planning and to get best value from the markets, price of water with selected vendors will be fixed for each month. The vendors list will be reviewed monthly, to retain those with most competitive prices. Vendors will be reimbursed for vouchers redeemed through money transfer companies, after verification by the village relief committee and project staff. Action adopts do-no-harm principles and approaches. Continuous monitoring will ensure that there are no market distortions by project activities, and also ethical practices by vendors and project staff. Project Officers will be responsible for distribution of vouchers and monitoring of activity. AGIRE s funds will be addressed to the provision of water vouchers to the target population in the selected areas of Mudug and Galgadud regions. Specifically, AGIRE s contribution will enable the distribution of about water vouchers (10-25 /HH/month) to cover people (730 families) from November 2011 to January Activity 2.2 Provide safe water storage and water treatment facilities to 10,000 HH in the target locations The activity aims at increasing access to safe water for drinking for 10,000 households (from the 10,000 families selected to receive emergency food and water voucher). It is recognized that provision of safe water is not sufficient if families do not have means to safely store and use the water. WASH cluster strategy lays particular emphasis on promotion of household water treatment. 10,000 families will each be issued with 2 plastic jerry cans, of 20 liters capacity, for water collection and storage. Chlorine for water treatment will also be provided for regular treatment of the water sources. 1,500 families will be selected from amongst the target groups to get household water treatment filters. Filter beneficiaries will be mainly drawn from areas that rely on unprotected water sources for drinking. This activity will be overseen by action's Hygiene & Sanitation facilitators, closely involving staff from health and nutrition centers. Activity 2.3 Promotion awareness on hygiene and sanitation and provision of sanitation materials, tools and hygiene kits in the target locations This activity is planned to enable people to take action to prevent or mitigate water, sanitation and hygiene related diseases. This is a cross-cutting activity covering the 15,000 families targeted by this project. The hygiene campaign will improve beneficiaries knowledge on hygienic handling of food; safe water chain; safe disposal of excreta; hand washing at critical times; environmental hygiene; and management of diarrhea outbreak through preparation and use of ORT. KAP survey will be carried out in target settlements 11

12 at project inception. Survey will be led by project s hygiene and sanitation facilitators (HSF) in each target district. Survey findings will be used to refine the hygiene promotion plans and identify key messages, development of complementary of IEC materials, and form basis for monitoring effects of the campaign. Community hygiene promoters (CHPs) will be selected from beneficiaries using pre-defined criteria and involving village WES committees. CHP selection will ensure gender parity, with each CHP serving 500 persons, as per SPHERE standards. Existing CHPs will be used, where available. HSFs will conduct training for CHPs in community hygiene and sanitation awareness promotion using tools from WASH cluster, UNICEF and COOPI. Key areas to be covered include facilitation skills, principles of adult learning, development of hygiene messages, selection of communication channels, and dissemination of key hygiene messages to disaggregated audiences. CHPs will prepare action plans for hygiene promotional activities in their respective villages. Implementation of the plans involves dissemination of selected positive and motivational hygiene messages to segregated audiences (men, women, youth and children) using gender and age sensitive approaches and tools. HSFs will supervise and monitor the hygiene awareness promotion campaigns under overall guidance of hygiene and sanitation expert. 3.9 Monitoraggio e valutazione / Monitoring and Evaluation Indicare i meccanismi di monitoraggio e valutazione previsti dall Associato come complementari a quelli disposti dal Segretariato di AGIRE. [Max 1 pagina] The Action will monitor on a monthly basis the project implementation and the achievements reached, at the same time that will monitor the markets and the impact that the Cash Based Response approach have in the local markets and at the household level. Monitoring tools will be developed and put in place at the beginning of the Action, data collection will take place periodically, and baseline and final surveys will take place during the Action. Questionnaires and data collection will take place at local level (District/Village) and in coordination and advice from FSNAU. Information sharing and analysis will be done in a quarterly basis or upon request from any of the actors. An specific in-built monitoring plan will be designed at the beginning of the Action and its aim will be to help the managers in the identification of problems and possible solutions in order to better address the beneficiary needs. The monitoring plan and tools will provide clear indication of the status of the project in a monthly basis for internal and external verification of the activities carried out and achievements towards OVIs. The monitoring plan and data analysis will take into consideration the difference between Regions and target locations, ensuring that the same support reaches to each beneficiary. The Program Coordinator will be the overall supervisor of the action an will hold regular meetings with the project staff. During the meetings a close follow up of the implementation plan will take place, challenges and constraints will be discussed and the next period work plan will be jointly developed. He will also lead and ensure the data collection and analysis in a monthly basis. Expatriates will have restricted access to South/Central Regions; but as long as the security allows, they will access to specific areas in Gedo, Mudug and Galgadud regions. They will meet regularly with local staff in Mandera and/or in Galkayo, where COOPI have hub offices. Other bases in the regions are Dinsor, Sakow, Hobyo, Dhusamareb, Adado, Garbaharey and Doloow. Revision of work plans and implementation achievements will be shared and information triangulated in order to be verified. Majority of the staff will be field based and expatriates part time, depending on security. At the Regional Office in Nairobi, the Regional Representative will maintain the relations with ECHO and other donors and will be updated by the Program Coordinator in a regular basis. The Regional Administrator will work closely together with the Project Administrator and supervise the overall program from the financial and administrative point of view. 4. RISCHI E CONDIZIONI / RISKS AND ASSUMPTIONS 12

13 4.1 Pre-condizioni / Pre-conditions Identificare le ipotesi favorevoli che devono essere soddisfatte prima che abbia inizio la realizzazione del programma. [Max ½ pagina] Appraisal of needs and selection of beneficiaries is done in a participatory manner Climatic conditions will be within the long-term average (no unusual variations in climatic events) 4.2 Analisi dei rischi / Risk assessment Identificare i fattori esterni che possono impedire il raggiungimento di obiettivi generali e specifici e la realizzazione delle attività previste. Definire per ciascuno di essi le strategie di risposta previste. [Max 1 pagina] Assumptions Local stakeholders are cooperative and supports the project/calamities affecting the communities are not catastrophic/host communities and IDPs coexist peacefully Result 1 Assumptions Beneficiaries of cash intervention give priority to food items/no massive increase of the CMB per Region Result 2 Assumption No severe drought/ Inter-clan conflicts do not limit access to water sources Risk Wide spread conflict disrupts implementation of project activities Result 1 Risk Disruption of food supplies in the local markets Result 2 Risk Massive increase of water costs due to shortage 5. SICUREZZA /SECURITY 5.1 Situazione sul terreno / Situation in the field Fornire una valutazione sulla sicurezza sul terreno relativa all attuazione del programma. [Max 30 righe] The initial announcement from Al-Shaabab group asking national and international organizations -Muslim and Non-Muslim- to respond to the crisis situation, opened up a certain level of access and mobility in the areas. The reality at the local level is not an "open invitation" but restricted to those agencies already set and working in the areas to scale up activities. AS -in Bay, Bakol and Middle Juba- make clear they will not accept new organizations either the ones expelled to come back. The situation has to be closely monitored in order to see the reality at the field level and the reaction once organizations are scaling up. The announcement is a window of opportunity that national and international organizations cannot miss, but at the same time puts the people in the field under pressure if the response is not at the level of the community expectations. The last announcement refusing the Famine declaration and announcing some restrictions avails the precariety of the initial declaration. Gedo: The districts targeted are under TFG control with the support of ASWJ. There is some fighting between AS militia groups and TFG forces in Bulahawa and Garbahare; but the rest of the districts are relatively calm. Bay: Dinsor and QansaxDheere are under AS control. The situation is clam besides the AS internal wrangles within hierarchy and with AS Mogadishu. Middle Juba: Sakow and Buale remain also calm, with few incidents reported. Mudug: Galkayo is a very fragile area, with different interests that condition the security situation. Several killings have been taking place lately; but the area is still accessible. In Hobyo (AS) security is constrain due to clan confrontations. Galgadud: Is under ASWJ and situation is relatively calm. 13

14 5.2 Protocolli di sicurezza / Security protocol Riassumere i protocolli di sicurezza adottati dall organizzazione e quelli specifici messi in atto per questo programma. [Max ½ pagina] COOPI has devised a mechanism of assessing security risks and ensuring adequate and effective communication with all parties. Operational activities are balanced between all interested groups, including hiring of staffs, transport and other services. This measures will reinforce the protection of the staff (local and expat when accessible) by the communities, local authorities and other interest groups. COOPI has local staff at the field level who has been trained and have the capacity to carry on the project activities. Where new approaches have to be adopted, training will be conducted at the hub offices prior to the start of the implementation. In case of need of remote management in specific areas, field staff is capable to implement the activities and triangulation of information and other sources of verification will be in place. In case of unmanageable security risk, presence of expatriate staff in the field will be minimized. Channels of communication are already in place in order to monitor the project and bring in and out project documentation and resources. Once the situation improves, monitoring missions will be undertaken, meetings with local staff and community leaders organized and a joint analysis of the situation will decide the best way forward. Unless the transfer of funds systems collapses completely and there is no other way to send the financial resources, COOPI doesn t foresees any risk that could lead to failure of implementing the activities under the present circumstances. See Cash Base Response risk matrix in annexes 6.

Specificare le modalità di procurement e successivo hand-over. [Max ½ pagina] No major procurement of equipment is foreseen for the implementation of the action. Procurement modalities will follow COOPI internal procedures as per manual. The project will purchase some extra computer/office equipment in order to reinforce the field offices in the different locations in South/Central Somalia. Stocks and consumables to be distribute will related to the hygiene and sanitation component mainly and consist on soap, aquatabs, jerry cans and other hygiene standard kits to be distributed to the beneficiaries. Some of those material may be provided in-kind by UNICEF and others will be locally purchase. 7.1 Exit Strategy 7. SOSTENIBILITA E TEMI TRASVERSALI / SUSTAINABILITY AND MAINSTREAMING 15

16 Indicare strategie di hand-over, coordinamento con organizzazioni e/o autorità locali, iniziative di capacity building,etc. The Action aims to provide the beneficiaries with immediate relief to the humanitarian crisis situation, providing access to life saving goods as food and water. Besides the initial survival period, the Action will also enhance family functions, social integration and dignity. Experience from previous crisis situations showed that pastoral and agro-pastoral households are able to return to their system of life when the situation improves. In order to support an early recovery of livelihoods, the Action will distribute agriculture vouchers which will give them access to inputs and services. Through the provision of the animal health vouchers, the project will contribute to the sustainability of the Animal Health Services in the Regions. During crisis periods, the demand of services is drastically reduced, risking the continuation of the service provision which are basic for the livestock protection. The timing distribution of agri inputs through the voucher system, will allow the agro communities to link with the season and harvest in the coming months, putting them back in the market. IDPs, particularly the ones displaced from urban towns, have business skills that will be utilized to promote their livelihood by supporting the re-establishment of their trade. Local markets will be reinforced through the demand creation, building on the local economy and contributing to an early recovery at community level. 7.2 Linking Descrivere come si intende collegare il programma di risposta all emergenza con le attività di ricostruzione e sostegno allo sviluppo già in corso o previste per il futuro. COOPI implements emergency actions considering the broader objective of improving the livelihood systems of the target population and empowering them to take control of their own development without creating dependency. The Action, even though an emergency response aiming to save lives, supports the re-building of the livelihoods, upholding the LRRD strategy of building livelihood mechanisms and creating resilience. The Action, giving the current crisis affecting Somalia, has a relief oriented approach. Previous ECHO interventions had a continuum strategy that have been interrupted by the prolonged and deepening of the crisis. Nevertheless, the propose project is based on previous experiences and lessons learned and takes into account the preservation of basic systems built and which establishes linkages between relief and development. 7.3 Cross Cutting Issues Indicare in che modo si intendono tenere in considerazione i seguenti temi trasversali: diritti umani, genere, impatto ambientale, prevenzione dei rischi [Max 1 pagina] Disaster Risk Reduction in target areas is enhance through the increasing access and availability of water and hygiene and sanitation services; reducing the prevalence of water borne diseases which have an impact in malnutrition rates. Cash for work activities will focus on common public works as rehabilitation of water and agriculture infrastructures and opening of roads, which will allow more efficient utilization of resources. The Action ensures that vulnerable groups -children, women, old people and IDPs- full benefit of the response within their localities, enhancing the human right to access to basic needs and dignity. Through the cash based livelihood support response, the action will give special attention to women and children headed households, which are the most affected during the crisis periods. Cash for work activities will be adjusted in order to increase women participation by flexibility of hours and tasks to carry on. Households with malnourished children under OTP health units, will also be prioritized. The project will incorporate activities to address HIV/AIDS as a cross-cutting aspect. The Community Health Workers will include HIV/AIDS as part of the awareness campaigns, sensitizing about VCT, prevention, sources of transmission and reducing stigma. Pastoral households in crisis situation with a family member 16

17 suffering from HIV/AIDS will also be prioritized by the project. The project staffs also will adhere to the principals that enhance control of HIV/AIDS as provided in ECHO HIV guidelines. Environmental awareness will be integrated into the community mobilization and sensitization activities. 8. COORDINAMENTO / COORDINATION 8.1 Accordi con autorità nazionali e locali / National and local authorities Indicare se sono state ottenute autorizzazioni ad operare, oppure sono stati siglati MOU o accordi con le autorità nazionali e locali. The proposal have been discussed with the local authorities and communities with the full understanding of their involvement in the beneficiary selection, supervision and monitoring of the process. An MoU stating the responsibilities of each of the stakeholders will be signed at the beginning of the intervention, once COOPI gets the official approval of the several donors. Regional and District authorities in each Region have been consulted about the proposed action and the green light has been given. COOPI has been and will continue attending the coordination meetings organized by local authorities as long as they do not compromise its neutrality and credibility in the communities. 8.2 Comitati di coordinamento / Field co-ordination fora Descrivere l eventuale partecipazione dell Associato a comitati di coordinamento sul campo con altre agenzie umanitarie. The Action fall into the Emergency Response coordinated by the UN cluster system and is in line with the inter-cluster response priorities (Nutrition, Livelihood/Food, WASH and Health). The strategy has been shared with the cluster leads and suggestions from their side incorporated. COOPI staff held regular coordination meetings with UN OCHA in Nairobi and at field level during the preparation of the response and also shares and updates in a weekly basis the response matrix per each cluster. Meetings with other actors in the same regions and/or potential ones are currently already taking place in order not to overlap and/or duplicate, at the same time that search for complementarities. COOPI also is in coordination with other NGOs (national and international) and Un agencies working in the Regions and shares approaches, beneficiary lists (when requested), areas of interventions, number of HH and villages and any other information relevant for the effective and efficient implementation. Surveys and analysis will be shared with any interested actor and main coordination platforms (clusters at Nairobi and field level, other NGOs, NGO Consortium,...). The project senior staff (expatriate and local) based in the field will attend the regional coordination meetings and will be duly informed about the progress and planned activities. COOPI is also in coordination with UNICEF WASH and Health actors in the regions/districts targeted in order to establish the linkages between the WASH interventions and the health facilities and OTP centers. COOPI is also working closely with FSNAU. Rapid assessment tools and sampling were developed in consultation and the analysis will be shared with their technical expertise for advice. Baseline survey questionnaires will be jointly developed and data collection shared and analyzed by both organizations. In such a way, FSNAU will gain some access at HH level (their assessments are based on discussion groups) while the project will take advantage of their advice and expertise. The data collection and relevance will therefore have a more scientific approach and can be used to measure the impact and appropriateness of the approach chosen. 8.3 Soggetto/i implementatore/i / Implementino partner(s) Specificare se il programma è realizzato attraverso partner locali e/o alleanze internazionali. Indicare tipo di coinvolgimento e precedenti collaborazioni. Allegare gli Accordi di Partenariato (art del Manuale Operativo). Not applicable.

CONCLUSIONI / CONCLUSIONS 10.1 Conclusioni e commenti / Conclusion and comments Indicare in questo spazio [max 1 pagina] eventuali aspetti che il Segretariato di AGIRE dovrà tenere in considerazione esaminando il Programma di Intervento. COOPI responds to the crisis in Somalia through a program approach, in order to take a broad view of the subject issues and have a greater impact on the affected populations. The draft presented to AGIRE is thus a part of this wider program, which will interact with different donors. Thank to this approach, you can benefit from important synergies, making even small amount of funding more effective. Relying on the entire program for the costs of structure and support, AGIRE contribution will be fully addressed to the activities. With AGIRE s funds of ,00 euro (minus administrative, audit and local logistic costs), conditional vouchers (food and water) will be distributed. While financial reports and general information of the whole program remain at AGIRE's disposal, through reporting, only the data related to the given contribution will be presented to AGIRE in the financial report. 18
