Ghana e-Enhanced Social Marketing Initiative (ESMI) Project The Ghana e-Enhance Social Marketing (ESMI) Project is a 2 ? year DFID supported project to be implemented in the six southern regions of the country- Greater Accra, Eastern, Volta, Western, Central and Ashanti. ESMI partners will work closely with the Ghana Health Service, National Malaria Control Program (NMCP) and the Private Sector to establish a long-term capacity for Ghanaian households to affordably access LLINs to prevent malaria in their families and communities. This will be achieved primarily via establishing an efficient subsidy mechanism able to target specific subpopulations with reduced price nets via an e-coupon system, thus contributing to Ghana?s capacity to maintain or increase household LLIN coverage across Ghana particularly in high transmission and/or low-income settings. The ESMI project is primed by the Johns Hopkins University Center for Communication Programs (JHU-CCP) in partnership with MEDA Canada and Malaria Consortium. Malaria Consortium is the monitoring and evaluation lead for the project.

Lebanon joint response On August 4, Beirut was hit by a devastating explosion which flattened most of the city’s port, damaging neighborhoods and buildings across the capital, and leaving at least 150 dead, 5,000 injured. The damage to infrastructure includes offices, residential premises, businesses, hospitals and schools. There are initial estimations suggesting that up to 300.000 people are currently without homes. SC will implement a shelter response in line with the priorities set by the Shelter Core Group which includes provision of immediate relief efforts, rehabilitation of residential shelters, cash for rent to support relocations.
Samen in actie voor Beiroet In the early evening of 4th August 2020, a catastrophic explosion struck Beirut’s central port, injuring thousands and sending destructive shockwaves throughout the city. On top of the immediate harm of the blast, the destruction of Lebanon’s principal port carries massive humanitarian implications for a country already reeling from an economic, food security and health crisis. Objective 1: Support vulnerable families in Lebanon to meet their basic needs during the aftermath of the explosion.

•	Multi-purpose cash assistance to vulnerable families, including a targeted value to respond to the needs of explosion-affected households.

Improving Prospects for Refugees and Vulnerable Host Communities in Lebanon – Budget Reprogramming for Covid-19 Response The Government of Lebanon declared a state of emergency in response to the COVID-19 pandemic on the 15th of March 2020. The situation is compounded because of the layering of the pandemic onto the ongoing economic and political instability experienced over the course of 2019 and into 2020. The combination of the three means that Lebanon faces a particularly difficult challenge in supporting displacement-affected populations in the short- but also into the medium- and longer-term, as the country deals with these crises and recovers from them. This programme will expand the integrated approach to provide services to children exposed to all forms of child protection violations including all forms of abuse, violence, exploitation and neglect resulting from the COVID-19 response measures and promote a more protective environment for children to prevent violations. This programme will also address the immediate basic needs of families during this emergency phase and support local authorities to adequately prepare for the coronavirus outbreak. Protect the most vulnerable children and communities from infection, to slow down the transmission, alongside the secondary impacts of non-COVID-19 related to basic needs and protection. The activities target Syrian and Palestinian refugees, and vulnerable Lebanese host community children (all ages), adolescents (girls and boys aged 14-17 including those with disabilities) and adults in urban areas in the greater Beirut area, focusing on the most vulnerable groups.

Provision of gender appropriate, secure and user friendly WASH facilities in the areas of return in Central Kurram Agency. In order to restore quality and affordable drinking water in the areas of return in Kurram Agency, Hope will use multiple approaches including reactivation of existing water supply systems (public and community owned), reactivation/installation of hand pumps/dug wells, Water quality monitoring and surveillance amp water treatment, and provision of temporary water storage facilities in areas where water is being provided through trucking. All relevant stakeholders including with line department, Political Administration, Public Health Department, Wash Cluster, Education Cluster, TIJs and health committees will be involved in the identification process of water supply schemes for rehabilitation/installations. Bills of quantity and designs will be approved from UNOCHA. Water quality will be ensured in the project targeted areas. The project will facilitate the following numbers of water supply schemes. 

As drilling boreholes is a challenge due to the mountainous terrain, therefore, only 25 Hand pumps will be reactivated/ rehabilitated and 10 (5 schools, 5 Health facilities) Hand pump along with bore up to 140 feet will be installed and 10 Hand pumps (3 schools, 3 health facilities and 4 in communities) will be installed along with bore up to 250 feet depth. 50 WASH facilities (mostly in schools and health facilities) will be rehabilitated. Project will install 100 water tanks for water storage and 10000 running feet pipe net work will be installed.

This will also maximize older people and persons with disabilities of all ages’ capacities and abilities to access available services in their areas of return. For this purpose, services of specialized expert physiotherapists will be hired including male and female, who after thorough assessment of the most vulnerable individuals with the functional and mobility restrictions will provide them physiotherapy support, assistive devices as per their specific needs along with rehabilitations sessions, orientation on the use of the assistive devices. In addition, the newly established Child Friendly Spaces and Social services centers (SSCs) will be transformed into age and disability friendly through sensitizing SSCs’ staff on age and disability. Also, these centres will be provided with specific items to make their services accessible for and inclusive of older men and women and PWDs with specific needs including boys, girls and children with disabilities, older people with functional limitations, women and men with disabilities. Through social mobilizers and organization working in the agency will collect the data of older people and PWDs. This data will be provided to other organizations so that they can include older people and persons with disabilities in recovery activities including livelihood skills trainings, provision of un-conditional cash grants and similar activities. Through our on-going HelpAge project for Temporarily Displaced Persons (TDP)s, which is currently being implemented in Bannu, funded through German Government, these identified older people and persons with disabilities will also be provided as currently we are planning to extend this project to Orakzai and Kurram Agency in return areas and will provide support to identified older people (men and women) and PWDs (men, women and boys and girls) for their livelihood and health condition improvement.
Strengthening evidence-based response planning for undocumented Afghan migrants and potential returnees to facilitate informed, dignified and sustainable returns, Pakistan Pakistan has been host to over 3 million Afghans nationals for more than 3 decades starting from the 1980s – this includes approximately 1.6 million Afghan refugees and 1.5 million undocumented Afghans. Recent months have witnessed a sharp increase in the spontaneous return of undocumented Afghans as well as registered refugees due to various socio-political developments on both sides of the border.
In order to provide support to the humanitarian community as well as the respective governments on both sides of the border, this project aims to undertake the following:
1.	A Return Intentions Survey (RIS)
2.	Flow monitoring at Torkham and Chaman border points
This project aims to support the returns process and strengthen the humanitarian response by supporting partners through the provision of reliable information regarding the needs and vulnerabilities of the undocumented Afghan migrants returning to Afghanistan as well as through the provision of accurate predictions regarding return patterns for the next six months in order to regularize the support provided.
According to recent IOM estimates, around 40% of the returning population is considered to be highly vulnerable. However, key data regarding the extent of and differential needs, concerns and priorities of women and girls, men and boys of different ages and disparities such as disabilities is critically absent. Through a comprehensive return intentions survey targeting 800 households in 10 selected districts and on-going flow monitoring at two key border crossings, this project will provide comprehensive data on the critical needs, vulnerabilities and return intentions of these populations and thereby, provide an evidence-base to inform humanitarian programming.
