WASH Lifesaving Assistance in Al-Qubbaytah  - Pillar 3 ltpgtThe issue of access to safe drinking water is of utmost importance and remains critical in Al-Qubbaytah. The primary concern is the lack of access to safe and sufficient amounts of water, which forces communities to rely on unprotected wells. This exposes them to various health hazards, protection risks, and negative coping mechanisms. A needs assessment conducted by ADRA in collaboration with local authorities (uploaded to GMS) revealed that the main water points are limited in their operational hours due to the use of diesel-powered pumping units. The high cost of diesel, especially during crises, reduces the availability of water. Furthermore, the construction of elevated tanks will be conducted to ensure that the water pressure reaches the unreachable communities.ltbrgtThe proposed project aims to enhance water supply and promote hygiene for both IDPs and host community members in the targeted district of Al-Qubaytah in Lahj governorate. The project's activities are expected to benefit a total of 1744 IDPs and 15675 host community members. By reducing the distance to water sources, the project will improve protection for children and women and reduce their risks of harassment or exposure to wild animals. In addition, the project will reduce the burden of water fetching for individuals with mobility issues, such as the elderly and disabled, as water sources will be closer to their homes.ltbrgtThe project will enhance water supply and availability through the rehabilitation of six water sources and the installation of solar-powered pumping units. Furthermore, the targeted communities will receive hygiene promotion sessions through the provision of hygiene kits and regular awareness sessions. This will ensure better protection against diseases and improved hygienic practices at the household and community levels.lt/pgt
Enhancing Education for Resilience in Crisis-Affected Communities in Bayhan District, Shabwah Governorate. (Pillar 1) ltpgtProblem Statement: In conflict-affected areas,
girls' education is severely disrupted, leading to limited opportunities for
their personal growth and development. The lack of safe and inclusive learning
environments, gender-based violence, and inadequate access to quality education
hinders their ability to break the cycle of poverty and participate fully in
society. This project aims to address these challenges and provide girls with a
supportive and enabling education.ltbrgtlt/pgtltp style="margin-top:9.95ptmargin-right:0inmargin-bottom:

Enable gender-responsive and inclusive access to safe learning environments, and quality education services for school-aged children in four schools in Hays d district, Hudaydah governorate. ltpgtThe crisis in Yemen has had a significant impact on the education sector, making it difficult for school-aged girls and boys to access education. In Hays district, located in Hudaydah Governorate, the problem is particularly severe, with a high number of children dropping out of school and a widespread illiteracy problem, especially among girls. The illiteracy rate for males is 41%, while for females it is 82%, and only 20% of girls are enrolled in primary schools, while 80% are not enrolled. This project aims to improve the education process in Four schools in Hays, with the goal of contributing to the objectives outlined in the education sector's 1st SA strategy, particularly priority 1.ltbrgtThe Four targeted schools are inadequate in terms of capacity, as the classrooms cannot accommodate the large number of enrolled students. Additionally, the WASH facilities are inadequate, with no access to clean water, and are not gender-sensitive nor disability-sensitive, even though some of the schools are mixed-gender schools. The conditions of the building and the WASH facilities contribute to the low enrollment rates with the number of girls significantly lower than that of boys. ltbrgtThis project proposes to carry out a set of activities to enhance the education sector, including constructing/rehabilitating classrooms, providing school supplies and furniture, and distributing school materials to pupils. These activities will increase access to safe and inclusive learning opportunities for vulnerable school-aged girls and boys, promoting well-being and resilience. They will also enable the schools to offer quality education services for children by training social workers on psychological and social support services and school counseling for affected children, as well as facilitating the participation of parents and students in the school through the activation/training of Father Mother Councils (FMCs) and student councils. These activities will reduce the number of dropouts and ensure that the targeted schools provide a suitable learning environment, especially for girls.ltbrgtTo achieve this successfully, VHI has established a presence in the district, with a sub-office, qualified staff, and three ongoing projects. The organization has a good understanding of the current situation and strong relationships with local authorities, leaders, and communities. In close coordination with the education office in the district, VHI has prioritized several schools, including three mixed schools (Abu Bakr Al-Daas, Al-Nasr, and Yazan School) and two girls' schools (Al-Saleh and Hafsa School) for the project. The VHI team has conducted a detailed needs assessment, and the project beneficiaries will be 836 girls, 276 boys, 74 men, and 74 women.ltbrgtlt/pgt

The IDP collective sites that will be targeted with these activities are: Alsada 1, Alsada 2, Bani Fadel and Aldeer. The response modality is informed by BCHR’s previous experience in Hajjah, and the need to implement rapid response in the targeted areas through CCCM, Shelter and NFIs activities.lt/pgtltpgt ltbrgtlt/pgtltpgtltbrgt830 HH (830 NFIs, 740HH Maintenance Kits, and 740HH energy sources) will be targeted with the provision of the above mentioned shelter and NFIs assistances especially people at high risk of GBV and/or contracting infectious diseases, in coordination with HLP and protection partners. 10 volunteers (50% women and youths) in the targeted IDPs sites will be trained in on the use of the maintenance and upgrade kits, and in close coordination and supervision of the local shelter expert.lt/pgt ltpgtltbrgtA strong focus will be on ensuring that the most sensitive groups (e.g. persons with disabilities, pregnant and lactating women, and unaccompanied elders/minors) in the community will be served appropriately to their needs and in the manner not exposing them to additional stress and harm. The safety, security and protection needs of the targeted communities will be given particular attention in planning assessments, focus group discussions, verifications/registrations, distributions and pot-distribution monitoring, including in designing and implementing a complaints response mechanism for each intervention.ltbrgtlt/pgtltpgtThe response will be coordinated with both the CCCM and Shelter NFI clusters at national and state levels in order to ensure that BCHR is answering to the priority needs and gaps, and any other locations as may be highlighted by the cluster coordination team. Assessment, registration/verification, distribution/intervention and post-distribution monitoring reports will be shared with the cluster coordinators. This will enhance the efficient use of cluster capacity, ensure gaps are effectively filled, needs addressed and lessons are shared to improve future interventions and to contribute towards the revision of the implementation strategy.ltbrgtlt/pgt
Addressing Urgent Water Supply Needs in Al Makha City, Reserve Allocation 9 ltpgtltbrgtThe proposed intervention will bring critically needed freshwater to an estimated 120,000 host community members and internally displaced persons (IDPs) living in Al Makha City (Ta’iz). IOM will finalize the long awaited Al Makha City water supply scheme by installing the final 8.5 kms of the transmission line, completing efforts of nearly two years to bring fresh water to individuals who are currently utilizing highly salinated water sources. ltbrgtThe 9-month intervention will include installation of the transmission line via a local contractor, construction of 5 inspection rooms to support monitoring and maintenance of the system, provision and installation of six borehole monitoring devices to measure water depletion, and the installation of an automatic chlorine dosing system to ensure proper disinfection of the water supply. As part of efforts to ensure sustainability of the water supply scheme, IOM will provide capacity building to the Local Water and Sanitation Corporation (LAWSC) on effective chlorination techniques. Further, community hygiene promoters (CHPs) will be trained to disseminate key messages on safe water practices and the responsible use of water resources. ltbrgtThe supply of fresh water to individuals in Al Makha City will improve sanitation and hygiene services as well as health and nutrition outcomes for years to come. ltbrgtlt/pgt
Combating Cholera and Acute Watery Diarrhea through Enhanced WASH programming in hotspot and at risk areas in Yemen. ltpgtltbrgtIn response to the recent surge in the number of cholera and acute watery diarrhea cases in Yemen and to strengthen cholera outbreak prevention in anticipation of a cholera outbreak, UNICEF, through this project, will ensure the availability of essential WASH supplies required to provide life-saving treatment services vulnerable communities by procuring WASH supplies necessary for cholera outbreaks response and prevention resulting from limited capacity of accessing adequate WASH services carried on by WASH cluster partners. As per the YHF strategy, UNICEF will target hotspot and at-risk locations acrossnbspYemen, based on actual risk of cholera and acute watery diarrohea (AWD) trends as per the official reports issued by WHO and the Health and WASH clusters. Through the YHF contribution,nbsp an approximatenbsp 140,000 beneficiaries (32,200 men, 32,200 women, 37,800 boys, 37,800 girls) in vulnerable communitiesnbsp will be reached by procuring and distributing lifesaving WASH supplies necessary to practice safe WASH practices such as handwashing with soap at critical times and point of use water treatment using aqua tablets. The estimated total number of can be subject to change based on actual responses in real time situation. The procurement will be initiated by UNICEF through its strong existing procurement system. These supplies will be stored in UNICEF warehouses or distribution to GARWSP warehouses to be distributed to affected communities and WASH cluster partners following the WASH cluster approval in case of current or future outbreaks. In case the cholera or AWD trend declines during the project period, UNICEF will coordinate with the WASH cluster to use those supplies for IDPs or any emerging situations/need requiring WASH supplies distribution. lt/pgt
Improving the Physical Safety of IDPs and host community members in Yemen through the provision of humanitarian mine action activities in Hodeidah governorate ltpgtltbrgtThis project will contribute to the improvement of the physical safety of communities contaminated with explosive ordnance (EO) areas of Hodeidah governorate under the De-Facto Authorities (DFA) targeting women, men, boys and girls, including internally displaced persons (IDPs) and host community members (HCs). Under this project, the Danish Refugee Council (DRC) will support 2,450 vulnerable individuals (490 women, 490 men, 735 boys and 735 girls) including 1,838 HCs and 612 IDPs. ltbrgtDRC’s Humanitarian Disarmament and Peacebuilding (HDP) sector will conduct manual mine clearance (MMC) and explosive ordnance disposal (EOD) spot tasks in DFA-controlled areas accessible from DRC’s base in Hudaydah. The intervention activities will be in support of the land release process, which aims to release land back to communities for productive use and safe access to public infrastructure and humanitarian programs. The EOD team will be deployed for EOD spot tasks to remove items of EO reported by the community and during non-technical survey (NTS). The MMC team will be deployed for clearance in hazardous areas identified by DRC’snbsp NTS capacity. To address minefields identified during NTS, MMC teams will conduct technical survey (TS) to determine the precise location and pattern of the minefield so that the MMC team can then clear it efficiently. In line with the norms for HMA activities in Yemen, DRC will second all multi task team (MTT) and MMC team members from YEMAC-N.ltbrgtIn areas under DFA control, DRC will operate according to task orders issued by the Yemen Executive Mine Action Centre in the north (YEMAC-N). Task orders will be requested based on consultations with YEMAC-N on the location and humanitarian impact of contamination. Therefore, at this stage, targeted districts cannot be specified as they will depend on those consultations. The presence of EO presents a daily risk of injury or death to residents of contaminated communities, and limits access to land, humanitarian aid interventions, and public infrastructure including roads and schools. Operations will be implemented under the land release process, where NTS, TS, and clearance are conducted sequentially, as a cost-efficient methodology for mine action activities. ltbrgtlt/pgtltpgtltbrgtDRC will engage with YEMAC-N through each phase of the project. DRC will consult with YEMAC-N to determine the most appropriate locations for EOD and MMC activities, and DRC will request a task order for EOD and MMC interventions from YEMAC-N. DRC will second and train YEMAC-N operators for the EOD and MMC teams. In line with IMAS, DRC will report all outputs of the activities into the YEMAC-N information management system. YEMAC-N will also provide QA and QC for EOD and MMC activities.ltbrgtlt/pgt
