Provision of Water, Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH) services targeting displaced populations hosted in camp and camp-like settings and hosting communities in North-East Nigeria. In response to the needs that have been identified by the Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene (WASH) Sector and in line with the NHF Allocation Strategy, this project will support the continuation and scaling-up of WASH assistance in north-east Nigeria. Current priorities, that this project will address, include: support the WASH Sector partners through WASH non-food items (NFI) core pipeline management improve access to safe water through the care and maintenance of water systems provide improved sanitation through the construction, care and maintenance of sanitation facilities – including desludging of filled up latrines ensure enhanced response and preparedness to the outbreak of waterborne diseases and pandemics and response and overall improved hygiene through increased awareness on hygiene, COVID-19, acute watery diarrhea (AWD) and cholera through targeted messaging as well as environmental sanitation or solid waste management. The project will be implemented in camps, camp-like settings, and the surrounding communities in Borno, Adamawa, and Yobe (BAY) States. Accessible local government areas (LGAs) listed in the NHF allocation strategy will be targeted with IOM WASH services throughout the project period. Cholera and COVID-19 messaging will be extended to host communities, who will benefit indirectly from the other forms of assistance as well. To ensure a timely and holistic response to the multi-sectoral needs of displaced populations in camps and camp-like settings, the activities will be implemented in conjunction with other components of IOM’s emergency response to ensure a coordinated response.
Emergency WASH Assistance coupled with Cholera Emergency Preparedness and Response for IDPs, Returnees, and Host Communities in Borno State in Nigeria The Objective of the proposed project is aligned to the objective of the NHF standard allocation and the Nigeria HRP to provide timely and integrated lifesaving assistance to affected populations in 2021. The project will be implemented in accessible areas in Borno state targeting IDPs, Host-communities, and returnees. The project will support the ongoing WASH sector activities in Borno state which are in-line with the sector strategy and which include a comprehensive WASH package. Specific locations in the LGAs are Gwoza (Pulka) and Jere including the flexibility to address any other location with arising emergency needs. 
Relating to the HRP beneficiary target, Malteser International (MI) in Nigeria will target 250,052 USD to contribute to the overall humanitarian response in 2021/2022. In this project MI will timely respond to the rainy season 2022 preparedness and to support the cholera outbreak preparedness. The emergency WASH activities will address protracted crisis programming where MI will adopt an approach that allows a natural shift from acute emergencies to semi-permanent or permanent facilities with focus on quality. Operating in Jere and Pulka with an experienced WASH program team, Malteser International will raise awareness on hygiene behaviour and sensitize communities on the risks and dangers of cholera outbreaks, support the access to safe and sufficient water, provide dignified and adequate sanitation facilities (showers, latrines and disposal sites), and distribution of hygiene and cholera preparedness kits.
In addition, MI is able to provide ad-hoc emergency interventions and has proven to be a valuable WASH partner in filling gaps in the humanitarian response in Borno state in the past from 2017- to date. Building on established relations with communities in the suggested locations, MI delivers inclusive, accountable, high-quality, and cost-effective activities and mainstreams gender, age and protection measures in all its operations. MI will apply a self-implementation approach making use of its professional and locally recruited WASH program team that operates with support from 2 expats. MI will adopt ways to tailor COVID-19 key messaging in its hygiene promotion awareness sessions and campaigns to curtail the spread of the Corona virus, inform about basic underlining symptoms and raise awareness on infections, need for isolation and treatment options.
Furthermore, it is to be mentioned that the project is complemented by a German Federal Foreign Office (GFFO) funded project that does not only extend the WASH portfolio but also covers the aspect of protection and therefore contributes to mainstreaming protection related activities (esp. GBV) across all Malteser International programming.

Provision of Food Assistance, through a Comprehensive Wet Feeding to Refugee returnees, IDPs  in Ngala, Damasak, Gwoza, Bama, Banki and Dikwa LGA in Borno State. This project will undertake food assistance, through wet feeding  and provision of access to COVID 19 prevention campaigns to refugees in Ngala, Damasak, Gwoza, Bama, Banki and Dikwa in Borno State which will contribute significantly to the healthy, physical and mental well-being of returnees, since the wet feeding programme will be comprehensive. The provision of wet feeding to new arrival boys, girls, men and women will be efficient and comprehensive for the first 5 days, hence not requiring the new arrivals to search for cooking fuel and materials to prepare meals, thereby reducing protection risks in addition to contributing to recovery of new arrivals, and facilitate necessary referrals before inclusion into regular food assistance and or livelihoods support in the short term. With improved access to safe energy for cooking for displaced persons and vulnerable host community, this will significantly lower protection risks, reduce health risks resulting from smoke inhalation leading to respiratory illnesses, improve the capacity to prepare food hence contributing to food Utilization of the displaced and returnee communities and reduces tensions between displaced households and host communities due to reduced competition for cooking fuel. Salient Humanitarian Organization is going to provide each returnee with 5 Days of wet feeding and also target a provision of wet feeding to about 1000 returnees on average per month. SHO will also conduct community awareness, sensitization campaigns and assessments which will come in terms of the rations and duration of the wet feeding to be provided and energy requirements increase during periods of nutritional rehabilitation and recovery from severe illness, requiring an upward revision of the ration level
Strengthening Quality of Treatment Service for Children with Severe Acute Malnutrition and Medical Complications in Borno, Adamawa and Yabe States The project aims  at mitigating high mortality at Stabilization Centers (SCs) through skilled service delivery and quality care to improve conditions and recovery rate of children admitted in the SCs in 16 Local Government Areas LGAs) in Borno, Adamawa and Yobe (BAY) states.

Emergency Inclusive  WASH Aid for Building Resilience of Conflict Affected Populations in Yunusari and Rann. Yunusari LGA of Yobe state and Kala/Balge LGA of Borno state are facing a dire humanitarian situation in which, if not timely responded to in a coordinated manner, may result in a humanitarian crisis. The IDPs are living in very overcrowded, dwellings conditions and with shamble WASH services provided by some host community households. Most of these compounds have limited WASH facilities and water to maintain appropriate hygiene. There are IDPs households who are temporarily sheltered at transit sites in Yunusari and Rann. Their situation is very difficult as there are no sufficient WASH facilities, including drinking water, toilets, and poor hygiene practices. There is, therefore, a high risk of disease outbreaks such as Cholera, Acute Gastroenteritis, Acute Water Dehydration (AWDs), and a possible outbreak of COVID-19 if the WASH situation is not properly addressed. 

WASH needs have been identified in these locations ranging from lack of adequate, safe water to unavailability of infrastructure. Food Insecurity and malnutrition reports from these locations necessitate a multi-sectoral response involving, Nutrition, FSL, and WASH aimed at reducing morbidity and mortality through the provision of clean, safe, and adequate water, dignified sanitation services as well as hygiene promotion messaging and practices.

The project is aimed at providing emergency access to disability-inclusive WASH services through the provision of adequate water, sanitation, and hygiene services to save the lives of conflict-affected populations. The project will improve access to safe and adequate water supply and basic sanitation infrastructure for households, health and nutrition facilities. The project builds resiliency through complementary hygiene practices to maximize and enhance health-seeking behaviors among the most vulnerable communities. The project will provide clean potable water, reduce common diseases, promote community hygiene, and distribute WASH NFIs to 1500 beneficiary households. All project materials will be delivered through procurement or core pipeline support. TCDI  will continue working in Yunusari and Rann to provide access to water and sanitation services and non-food items in a sustainable manner. 

The project will serve the affected populations through WASH infrastructure building to assist 8,482 (men 2350, Women 2242, Boys 1657, and Girls 2215) direct beneficiaries in Yunusari and Rann who are affected by conflict. These beneficiaries will be provided with access to safe water as per SPHERE standards (15 liters per person per day) of whom the same population of 1,500 people will be provided with access to appropriate sanitation facilities and WASH-related NFIs and the target population will benefit from WASH infrastructure as the few existing facilities are already strained.
Provision of Quality Integrated Primary Health and Reproductive Health Care services to Conflict Affected IDPs and Host Communities in Yobe State. RHHF is proposing a 10-month quality integrated primary health care services and sexual reproductive health services for internally displaced persons and host community members in  Yobe state through direct treatment of complicated health related challenges. Through this project, the communities and IDP camps in the selected LGAs (Potiskum and Fune in Yobe state) will be supported with registered Midwives Practical Observational Skills Training of Traditional Birth Attendants (TBAs) and Community Health Extension Workers (CHEWs) to provide safe and clean delivery services and support for exclusive breastfeeding to lactating women in a bid to reduce maternal and neonatal mortality and morbidity. The registered midwives will be conducting basic antenatal and postnatal care, detection, and recognition of danger signs of pregnancy and delivery while monitoring the TBAs and CHEWs. TBAs and CHEWs will be provided with clean delivery kits, registered and mentored on how to use the kits for optimum coverage of clean and safe deliveries. Midwives will also mentor TBAs and CHEWs to take on case management of women during the post-natal period and encourage exclusive breastfeeding for at least six months as a minimum standard. A doctor will visit the area once or twice a week to provide supportive supervision and treatment for complicated cases with appropriate medications availability or certify medical referrals depending on the security situation to the secondary health care. Comprehensive Sexual and Reproductive Health (SRH) services will be provided with focus to provision of family planning, antenatal and postnatal care services, health facility delivery and referral of pregnant women with pregnancy related complications to treat and prevent pregnancy related complications. Essential medicines and drugs will be procured to prevent stock out in the facilities as well as support to healthcare workers in 10 facilities to provide PHC services. 
RHHF will support the State Primary Health Care Development Agency (SPHCDA) and the State Ministry of Health (SMoH) under the umbrella of the Health sector and provide emergency integrated PHC services which include: treatment of common diseases (malaria, RTI, diarrhoea, etc.), provision of antenatal care and safe delivery services, immunization and referral services in IDP camp and host community clinics.
Delivering Integrated Gender Based Violence Emergency Response in Borno State (DIGER) The project aims to integrate activities that will address gender-based violence (GBV) – specifically against vulnerable women, adolescent girls and persons living with disabilities in Host Communities and Internally Displaced Person Camps in Two  (2) LGAs in Borno (Dikwa and Gwoza LGA) state. This will be achieved through the combination of different strategies that will enable the security, safety, health and well-being of GBV survivors in the BAY states. The project will enhance the provision of GBV services such as case management, mental health and psychosocial support services, PSEA Mitigation and awareness raising including referral services. Information, education and communication materials on SRH/GBV will be produced (English and local languages) to create PSEA/SRH/GBV awareness and encourage utilization of services. 

By the end of the project cycle, access of survivors/vulnerable individuals- especially women and girls- will be enhanced through a survivor-centred service approach which will significantly improve SRH/GBV risk mitigation efforts in Borno State
