Corona prevention and preparedness border provinces of Afghanistan Afghanistan battling the prolong armed conflict, injustice and poverty (54.5% people are below poverty line ) now facing the Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), which  is an infectious disease caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus. The disease was first identified in 2019 in Wuhan, China, and has since spread globally, resulting in the 2019–20 coronavirus pandemic and found more than 200,000 people infected globally and killed more than 6,000 people ( as of 18-March-2020). 
The World Health Organization (WHO) declared the 2019–20 coronavirus outbreak a pandemic and a Public Health Emergency of International Concern (PHEIC). Evidence of local transmission of the disease has been found in many countries.
Afghanistan has a very poor health system in the world and has a very low Capacity. In the counter the health expenditure is US$ 905 per capita while the health ministry allocated US$ 58 per capita.  
More than 4 million of Afghan refugees are living in Iran and Pakistan. Iran was found the second most infected country in Asia after china, there are movement of refugees and other Afghan civilian to and from Iran, the COVID-19 cases has been detected in the country with 22 positive cases (as of 18-Marc-2020). The people in the country has concern on the reported cases because of the capacity of the government and do believe that the cases are much higher which may create another disaster in the country and may affect the whole region.

Urban resilience in one ward of Hlaing Tar Yar township in Yangon Yangon has high precipitation of about 2,750 mm of rain annually. When flooding occurs in the area of Hlaing Tar Yar Township, thousands of people are directly affected of which the most vulnerable households, the squatters, are even more affected as they inhabit the least developed areas. There are no emergency plans put in place and when hazards occur decisions have to be taken on the spot. 
Households surveyed in Hlaing Tar Yar have very low resilience against shocks of any kind. Average income per capita is below 2 $ per day. Household debts are high and there are no other coping mechanisms than borrowing additional money from money lenders, which in the long run will decrease the resilience of individuals and households even more. Among these households the incidence of severely malnourished children under 5 is high. The envisioned project results are: 

· Resilient community action plan (development plans and contingency plans) have been developed and are owned by the stakeholders based on the participatory risk assessments and multi-stakeholder analysis 

· There is increased collaboration between the stakeholders, the platform is operational and well-functioning, and the community and local authorities are a driving force behind the platform 

· DRR measures have been collaboratively developed, implemented and a plan for operation and maintenance / monitoring is in place Direct beneficiaries: 10.800 people (Inner Padan: 10.000; 2 new wards: 800 (400 per ward).

Indirect beneficiaries: 110.100 people
* Inner Padan: 8.000 (Total population Inner Padan 18.000; 8.000 expected to be benefitting indirectly). 
* Ward 10: 16.100 people (7.600 males; 8.500 females) (As research ward)
* Yay Oakkan village: 42.200 people (19.100 males, 23.100 females) 
* Nyaung village: 43.800 people (21.600 male; 22.200) 

The direct target group consists of the selected people of the population of the three wards targeted by the project. Inner Padan, the ward already selected in 2018, has a group of direct beneficiaries of 10.000 people who will use the clean water. Nyaung village and Yay Oakkan will involve 400 people for the PDRA.  

The indirect target group of the project consists of all inhabitants of the wards/villages selected, because they will benefit of the DRR measures which will be implemented. With the increased attention for resilience in the ward/village, their resiliency will also increase.
Live saving cash assistance in border area Burkina Faso The proposed intervention is a response to the food crisis in the border area with Niger and Mali in Burkina Faso due to influx of internally displaced people (IDP). A large group of IDP’s are hosted by 3 local communities that are already struggling with a degrading food and nutrition situation. Cordaid will work via OCADES to distribute cash. The cash support will save lives. To provide 400 families (360 IDP, 40 host communities) with lifesaving food security support in Titao communities The most vulnerable households will be selected, with a division of 360 IDP and 40 host community hhs
Flood Resilience in Myanmar Dry Zone. Pakokku Township is located in Magway region, in the centre of Myanmar. The economy of the Township is defined by agriculture, especially in the rural areas. Pakokku has five different zones, reflecting on their environmental profile: 1) Pakokku town; 2) riverbank areas; 3) seasonal flash flood (wet-dry) areas; 4) inland dry areas; and 5) mountain dry areas. These zones are differently influenced by natural hazards. The main challenge in the township is the vulnerability related to water. The dry zone receives little rain (average of 650mm) on an annual basis. However, during July-October storms, it floods quickly in the area, partly because of decreasing forest cover and soil erosion. This places communities at higher risk of localised flash floods during times of heavy rain. The targeted community is located along the Ayeyarwaddy river bank. As a result of climate change and the uncertainty of climatic conditions, plus deforestation and changed land-use, hydrological risks are increasing, especially in flood prone areas. Additionally, the area has a very unbalanced sex ratio, because of the out-migration of men. Also the infant mortality is considerably higher than the national average. The aim of the project is to build the resilience of (13) communities in Pakokku Township and reduce their exposure and vulnerability to climate-related extreme events and other economic, social, and environmental shocks and disasters. The project targets 13 villages in Pakokku Township, with a total number of 1511 households, consisting of 7395 individuals (3,473 male and 3,922 female). The direct benefit of improved resilience will improve the resilience of the whole township, through increased attention on this topic and disaster risk reduction measures which are carried out. The indirect target group has 29 villages and a population of approximately 10,150.
Life-saving humanitarian assistance for extremely vulnerable Yemen has the largest food crisis in the world. The rapid growth of famine has affected more than 20 million people who are food insecure. The economic crisis and the exchange rate deterioration has been the main barrier of access to basic food needs. The cost of a food basket increased 60 per cent compared to 2018 and average food prices are now nearly 150 per cent higher than before the conflict.

Yemen is currently suffering from the largest cholera epidemic in the world due to weak hygiene, poor maintenance of sewage disposal systems, the use of contaminated water for irrigation, and population movements. Affecting over 1 million people, including more than 600,000 children in 2019. In addition, As of 28th January 2019, a total of 3,309 probable diphtheria cases with over 191 associated deaths with a CFR of 5.7% were reported from 21 governorates and 231 districts.  Ibb and Hajjah are the most affected governorates. Children of 5-14 years account for the highest number of probable diphtheria cases (46 %) of the total reported cases. The main goal of this project is “To contribute to the availability and sustainability of basic needs and settlement of displaced affected households and minorities including elderly people”. The project period will be six months starting June 1st 2019 and ending in 31st December 2019. Yamaan will target beneficiaries located in Ibb and Sana’a governorates. Restrictions on movement and security issues from army and other officials are less in Sana’a and Ibb. In addition, the people in need and acute need in these two governorates are considered higher than other governorates; the number of people in need in Ibb is 2.4 million and 1.18 million in Sana’a. The targeted beneficiaries have been identified based on data collected by the National Authority for Managing and Coordinating Humanitarian Aid and rapid assessment by Yamaan team in the host communities of the two governorates Sana’a and Ibb
One Cordaid DRC against COVID-19 Since the outbreak of Coronavirus (COVID-19) in Wuhan, China, the global public health threat posed by COVID-19 is high, with more than 1,400,000 reported cases worldwide.
The DRC Ministry of Health confirmed the first case of COVID-19 in the DRC on March 10, 2020.
The DRC President decided enhanced screening, quarantine measures and movement restrictions to reduce the spread of COVID-19, along with recommended basic protective measures (hand-washing and social distancing).
However, DRC is a vast country, with more than 80 million inhabitants leaving in dire conditions. The health system is weak and will not be able to handle a major health crisis. Many people don’t have access to clean water, stay together in small spaces and live from hand-to-mouth. In addition, a health crisis could rapidly turn into a social crisis, as the informal sector accounts for more than 80% of the economy.
Faced with the spread of this epidemic in DRC, it is urgent to sensitize populations to raise awareness of the danger posed by this disease and to respect the recommendations of the health authorities for proper prevention against the pandemic.

As a result, prevention and preparedness are key to prevent from a global crisis in DRC. Overall objective: to help curb the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic in DRC.
Specific objectives:

- Strengthening risk communication and the participation and commitment of local communities through RECO and local radios, in order to ensure that they take ownership of community activities to prevent and respond to a possible coronavirus epidemic and that these activities are taken into account across all the pillars of the response.
- Supporting victims from domestic and sexual violence.
- Strengthening the coordination of community activities in each targeted health zones. Target groups – RECO, health care providers, community leaders, local civil society organizations (especially youth organizations), local authorities
Improvement access to SRH through PBF EPOS and Cordaid submitted an PBF concept note for Burundi in 2015 and were selected for a full proposal. Due to the deteriorating political situation in Burundi the whole programme was suspended. Cordaid took then the initiative to elaborate a paper how to continue with PBF in Burundi through NGOs and send that to different donors among which KwF. In September 2016 KwF - who has an regional office in Kigali- contacted the Cordaid Burundi office telling that Cordaid has been selected (after an mini evaluation) for further appraisal at their headquarters in Frankfurt. A well prepared Cordaid delegation (Zarir, B. Looijenga, M. Lagro) visited the KwF office in April 2017 to present Cordaid and discuss different issues that were brought forward by KwF. The meeting was successful and we got agreement to work out a concept proposal to be submitted on 8 th of may. KwF will visit Burundi in the second week of May 2017 to discuss in more detail with different stakeholders the foreseen Cordaid PBF -SRH programme avoiding formal meetings at ministerial level in Burundi. 1. To contribute to the improvement of the sexual reproductive health of the population of Burundi with a particular focus on the reduction of maternal and neonatal mortality by providing subsidies to health indicators for SRH through PBF;
2. To contribute to the improvement of the quantity and quality of the SRH health services in Burundi at the demand and supply side. Women in reproductive age with a special focus on (A) girls/women of 15 and 19 years of age and women , (B) girls who are victims of sexual violence and (C) Men/boys who are sexual active
Addressing Needs of Returning Conflict-Affected IDPs in Somali Region Conflict in the Oromo and Somali regions in the past few years caused major displacement and with the cessation of hostilities, IDPs have moved back to their villages where shelter, water and sanitation and community infrastructure have been damaged or destroyed. IDPs from the Oromo and Somali ethnic groups have returned in these villages and where they have co-existed in the past, inter-ethnic relations have been affected by the recent conflict and displacement. Additionally, with the recent opening up of the government for CSOs to be engaged in peacebuilding, this project plans to ensure conflict mitigation is incorporated in the humanitarian response activities in the repair or construction of community WASH and infrastructure.

 This project primarily aims to address humanitarian needs of returning IDPs while also piloting in Ethiopia the new Cordaid focus on triple nexus approach. The project will be implemented in villages in Liben zone bordering the Oromo and Somali region where IDPs have since returned. Cordaid Ethiopia plans to work in partnership with RACIDA in this project to build on the ongoing resilience programming in the area as well as the ongoing capacity building activities with RACIDA in the SCORE project. No major risks are foreseen in the project area with the cessation of hostilities between the Oromo and Somali ethnic group and the recent concerted efforts of the government on addressing internal conflicts in the country. Long-term objective- To ensure dignified return of conflict-affected IDPs in Somali region.

Short-term objectives-

 1. Men, women and children in the target population have increased access to dignifying WASH and other community facilities.

 2. Conflict mitigation activities have been incorporated in humanitarian/recovery activities.

 3. Cordaid Ethiopia and RACIDA KMSS have increased knowledge on how to implement the nexus approach in conflict-affected settings. Direct Beneficiaries: 1000

Integrating Mental Health and Psychosocial Support and in Cordaid's Thematic (IMPACT) Uganda (Phase 2) MPHSS services and path ways to justice for SGBV survivors in refugees' settings are disconnected with majority of SGBV survivors not able to access MHPSS services to enable them overcome post SGBV trauma.

As a result, even upon attainment of justice and health care, most SGBV survivors. Walk away with long lasting unresolved trauma that continuously impedes them from full recovery and independence. Through the 2020 IMPACT action research, it was farther established that current MPHSS providers I.e. counselors and social workers lack adequate materials/ resources and tools for use limiting their effectiveness and reach. Overall Objective: 
Increased access to Mental Health Psycho social Support across a continuum of services for SBGV survivors especially women and girls in refugee settlements and host communities in West Nile. 

Objectives:
SO1: Assess the effectiveness of the MHPSS toolkit and perfect it based on user and beneficiary feedback (double loop learning) 
SO2: Evidence based advocacy for prioritization of MHPSS for SGBV survivors. SO3: Explore opportunities for scale up and wider application of the MHPSS toolkit with in Cordaid and by other stakeholders. Girls and Women SGBV survivors
Institutions responding to SGBV i.e. police and protection units
Climate-smart Disaster Risk Management Isiolo County Over the years MID-P has been using participatory approach which integrates Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR), Climate Change Adaptation (CCA) and Ecosystem Management and Restoration (EMR) in addressing the salient disaster risk issues that affect the lives and livelihood of communities living along the Ewaso Nyiro North River Basin.

Smart Paper Technology in Health PBF Cordaid is Uganda is currently applying its popular Results Based Financing (RBF) approach in the HEROs Project- an SRHR and SGBV adolescent focused project. Like for many other RBF interventions, one of the challenges currently faced is effective collection, management and timely utilization of bulky data. The Smart Paper Technology has demonstrated ability to address this challenge. Below are the specific gaps to be addressed.
•	Poor data availability from the health centres (disaggregated data on effective coverage) 
•	Cumbersome and cost-intensive RBF data verification processes (internal and external) posing sustainability issues 
•	Data alteration to influence RBF bonuses
•	Perverse incentives for the facilities to focus more on data management and reporting than quality of care to clients because of existing incentive mechanism and measurement approaches 
•	Reactive approach of addressing gaps and inefficiencies in health delivery points, and forecasting mechanisms to proactively plan interventions
•	Duplication of efforts and financial resources to collect and report on data to different stakeholders
•	Lack of visibility of data quality and quality of care indicators (at all levels)
•	Lack of visibility of actions taken based on the data and continuous monitoring of intervention results (at all levels)
•	Lack of relevant data for decision-making due to the existing limitations of data management
•	Inadequate data collection, analysis/synthesis, communication and use of data at all levels
•	Shortage of skilled health workers, low retention rate and high data management burden
•	Labour-intensive and error-prone paper-based data management processes
•	Lack of attention to and poor data use culture and systems-wide approach in evidence-based decision-making
•	Lack of attention to quality-of-care indicators and necessary actions Overall Objective: 
Through SPT, Cordaid will contribute to establishing a functional performance measurement and improvement system at selected health facilities and district levels, to systematically improve access, utilization and coverage, quality and efficiency of services in a sustainable manner and with a specific notion of vulnerable groups, such as adolescents, youth, women with a strong gender bias.
