Emergency health care response in Wanthoa, Makuay, and Dimma woredas in Gambela Regional state According to the Ethiopia Humanitarian Response Plan 2020 Mid-Year Review (August 2020), there is drastic changes in the humanitarian context since the release of the 2020 Humanitarian Response Plan (HRP) on 28 January 2020 warranted an immediate revision of the HRP requirements, which was released on 9 June 2020. At the time, the humanitarian caseload considerably increased to 16.5 million people (up from 7 million) and the financial requirement to US$1.65 billion (up from $1 billion). The additional humanitarian needs mainly emanated from the multi-sector impact of the COVID-19 pandemic since March 2020, which disproportionately impacts crisis-affected communities
Flood hazard in Gambella regional state is a usual phenomenon that occurs during the rainy season mostly from July-September resulting into displacements and losses of properties, recurrently flood continues to be a challenge that deteriorates the humanitarian situation in the region. The region has experienced incidence of floods due to over-flow of major rivers such as Baro(Openo) and Gilo crossing different woredas and flash floods caused by heavy rainfall from inside the region or from the highlands of the Oromia Region, the flood cause displacement of people   and other humanitarian crisis that can hinders people from having basic necessity like food and social services. 

According to flood assessment report which was conducted from 3-15 August 2020, by the Gambella regional Health Bureau, indicates that the number of displaced persons increased and reaches to 19,821people/ 3,965HH in twelve Kebeles and the humanitarian response are not going well particularly there is limited lifesaving primary health care service in the area. Currently 25 health facilities impacted by IDPs and almost all stock-out of essential drugs reported. The poor PHC services have displayed for a couple of months and the IDPs and surrounding host communities now are suffering with shortages of drugs and other medical supplies.
The IRC directly targets IDPs and flood affected communities with poor access to PHC services. The IRC proposes implementation of emergency health response using surge support, for selected and highly affected three woredas (Wanthoa, Makuey and Dima) of Gambella People’s National Regional state.

Covid-19 has been a globally identified infectious disease and, quickly developing into a pandemic affecting millions of people in the world. Ethiopia reported its first case of Covid-19 on the 13th of March, and since then widely spread to all regions of Ethiopia.The national health systems attention has shifted towards the Covid-19 preparedness and response using the scarce resources available. This is believed to further impair the health system, potentially depriving millions from getting lifesaving health services. IRC under this project will also work on prevention of the Covid-19 by community sensitization using different IEC methods and through distribution of IP items for health facilities.
Emergency GBV Protection Response for conflict affected, displaced People in Central Gondar Zone According to the Humanitarian Response Plan in 2020, the Government of Ethiopia and the humanitarian community will target 7 million out of the 8.4 million people identified as in need of humanitarian assistance. The number of people targeted in 2020 includes all the 1.78 million IDPs. The Protection sector requires $42.4 million to ensure protective services are provided to IDPs and the host community in emergency affected locations that face protection concerns.

As a result of ongoing conflicts and dispute there are 59,425 internally displaced people in Central Gondar Zone. There is a huge need to ensure protection for vulnerable groups. This hazard mainly affects children, women and elders and resulted in internal displacement and sexual violence. Due to the conflict women and girls are increasingly exposed to sexual violence. Adult women’s safety concerns are domestic and sexual violence especially when travelling outside the community.

 CARE has prioritized two Woredas in the Amhara region central Gondar Zone based on the presence of conflict-displaced populations with urgent basic humanitarian needs, the cohabitation of both conflict groups (the Amhara and the Kemant communities), exposure to further conflict-induced violence and large number of IDP concentration.
This allocation tries to provide protection assistance in two of affected Woredas of Central Gondar Zone to partially address this critical gap. According to the response strategy CARE Ethiopia will work on Undertaking SGBV consultations and map referral pathways for access to GBV services, strengthening capacity of service providers and provision of dignity materials for IDP and returnee women and girls In central Gondar Zone Lay Armacho Woreda where (9945 IDPs) and Gondar City Administration Arbaba site (4924 IDPs) are found. 


CARE Ethiopia is a regular member of protection clusters and CP-GBV sub cluster at national and regional level and well known for having a presence in the country. CARE has been operational in the region through different development and humanitarian intervention for nearly twenty years. CARE’s North Program Office is located in the nearby South Gondar Zone Debre Tabor town, for the purpose of this project and another humanitarian interventions CARE currently has a satellite project office in Gondar City.
Shelter and Non-Food Item (NFI) support for affected populations in Benishangul-Gumuz, Oromia, and Somali regions of Ethiopia. The proposed intervention will provide life-saving humanitarian assistance focusing on shelter interventions, to targeted internally displaced persons (IDP) and returnee households (HH ) living in cluster-identified priority areas across Ethiopia. The project will mainly focus on distribution of emergency shelter and non-food items (ES/NFI) and Shelter repair assistance including cash for rent support and housing, land, and property (HLP). The targeted collective sites in this proposal are also supported by Site Management Support (SMS) to ensure overall coordination and inclusive response. IOM will also follow an integrated emergency response with health and Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene (WASH) interventions. Protection mainstreaming will remain a core objective throughout the project implementation.

Primary target locations for the proposed response are Oromia, Beninshagul, Gumuz, and Somali regions. Through the proposed intervention, the following will be carried out:

Shelter/NFI support:

-	2,151 HHs will be supported with critical shelter repair assistance.  All shelter repair beneficiaries will be verified and assisted with HLP support. 370 HHs in Benishangul Gumuz and 1,781 HHs in Oromia region

-	3,601 HHs will receive Emergency Shelter (ES) / material support. All ES kits will be in kind. 1,209 HHs in Oromia and 2,392 HHs in Somali region. 

-	4,635  HHs will receive Core-relief items. Core relief items will be mixed in-Kind and Cash assistance and will depend on the conditions of the market and availability of payment methods. 1,722 HHs in Oromia and 2,913 In Somali region. 

With this project, IOM will also seek to target 10 percent of host communities in need of support with essential ES/NFI. Including host communities within the humanitarian assistance, caseload supports a needs-based response approach and contributes to improving social cohesion and community structure rehabilitation in displacement-affected locations.

Additionally, in light of the unfolding COVID-19 pandemic, which increases the need for targeted humanitarian response, the proposed response under this project will also provide an important contribution to the humanitarian response in Ethiopia. 

Overall the project will deliver assistance to 10,387 HH representing 57,129 individuals through the provision of Emergency Shelter, shelter repair, and Non-Food Items (ES/NFIs) with essential protection mainstreaming, and with a gender-inclusive approach. In addition to including measures that mitigate the risk of gender-based violence (GBV) and sexual exploitation and abuse (SEA).
Emergency Health Response in Mieso and Guradamole woredas of Somali Region Islamic Relief is proposing Health  project aims to improve essential lifesaving health service provided to vulnerable host communities and IDPs in Mieso and Guradamole woreda through mobile health and nutrition team. Mieso and Guradamole    are among the  six  woredas of Somali region which  identified by  health cluster for  immediate health intervention. Health service  need  is increased in   Mieso and Guradamole woreda  as a result of high SAM admissions,  recurrent food amp under-nutrition crises and increased frequency of measles and cholera outbreaks in the course of 2020 and  are now further exacerbated by desert locust infestations and COVID-19 pandemic.  Hence, an effective emergency  health response  will be required  in order to contribute and  curve the looming situation as much as possible. The proposed project will be implemented for  five months starting from 1st of November  2020 to March 31, 2021 in  two  selected woredas of Somali region with estimated cost of $ 110,000.00  

Through this fund allocation Islamic Relief will mainly provide a   Mobile Health and Nutrition Team(MHNT) services in the woredas proposed for the intervention. MHNTs were effective as compared to the static facilities  in  creating access to previously  un-reached  population  groups for  health  services in Mieso and Guradamole woreda. Furthermore ,these main  activities that will be provided are : 1)Transportation of essential medical supplies for mobile health and nutrition team (MHN) and service  2)Deploy and equip rental HARD-TOP vehicles for mobile health and nutrition team (MHN) services 3)Recruit staff for mobile health and nutrition teams (MHN)  4) Provide medical consultations and referral services to beneficiaries 5)Provide capacity building training to health workers or Health extension workers on different health topics such as  case management of main childhood illness,  6)Conduct active case searching to support health emergencies responses 7)Monthly reporting of activities and beneficiaries 8) Strengthening early warning system for disease outbreaks detection based on the existing integrated disease surveillance and response system
Address the increased immediate life saving Nutrition support needs to vulnerable under five age girls and boys and Pregnant and Lactating Women (PLW) among IDPs and their host communities in 6 districts of Oromia, Afar and Amhara Region, Ethiopia. Taking into account of the current worrying situation and anticipated deteriorated food security situation in targeted districts Plan International planned this project to complement and scale up on the current ongoing efforts by the government with giving high focus on Nutrition surveillance and maximizing access to Nutrition, IYCF, Hygiene and Sanitation promotion and CPiE interventions at all level.

Also protection related topics will be included in each planned CMAM trainings to aware HWs and HEWs on case identification, referral and reporting of GBV. Also the community’s awareness will be maximized on CPiE using the opportunities of OTP and SF distribution days. Moreover, the project will also support the ongoing efforts by the local government related to the prevention measures of COVID-19 with providing logistic and technical supports at all targeted intervention areas.

Protection and Gender related issues will be mainstreamed and gender concerns will be further analyzed during the project’s implementation period. Appropriate measures will be considered for gender equality and ensuring that women benefit. This will include: specifically targeting women for some of the activities (PLW-specific activities like TSFP for MAM PLW) and ensuring equal involvement of boys’ and girls’ participation in other activities (community mobilization sessions, screening, TSFP admission, OTP and SC referral linkage and case management, and capacity building supports). The distribution centers will be made more accessible to target beneficiaries among IDP and host communities to minimize the risk of GBV. Child protection is a core value of the project. All training activities will include a child protection sensitive topics.

Therefore, this emergency response project is planned to support IDP (West Guji) and their host communities located in all targeted district on basic lifesaving nutrition, Hygiene amp Sanitation including CPiE needs that are not covered by the ongoing PIE response, Government and other keen partners.

Strengthening infection prevention and control core pipeline support to the COVID-19 outbreak response  in Ethiopia. The aim of this project is to ensure effective support to front-line COVID-19 response network for vulnerable communities including IDPs, returnees and refugees in Ethiopia. This will be achieved by provision of PPEs for frontline health workers to support the efforts of regional and zonal teams in scaling up prevention, early identification and containment of COVID-19 outbreak in communities particularly those housing large numbers of IDPs, returnees and refugees, and those along cross-border transport corridors. Health workers are a risk of COVID-19 on two fronts: they get exposed at work and also from the communities in which they live, further exacerbating their exposure odds. When health workers are at risk, we’re all at risk. Access to PPE is key and enhances the efforts for health workers to stay protected.
