Protection Assistance and Life Saving ES/NFI Kits for Prioritized IDP and Returnees Areas In line with the Protection Cluster prioritization note, the project will provide protection monitoring/ assessment and site management support (SMS) services for IDPs and returnees in Oromia and SNNP region . In that regard, UNHCR will support the capacity development of local authorities and engaged partners to integrate protection considerations into planning and response to the IDP situation. Protection monitoring will identify persons with specific needs that are in need of referral to services. In addition to provision of psycho social support (PSS) to the youth and mental disturbed persons support will also be extended to people with disability through the provision of movement materials. Dignity kits/hygienic support will also be provided to school girls. Through additional EHF funding, UNHCR will also extend its protection activity for returnees in the Wollega area. The site management support (SMS) will focus on site rehabilitation and upgrades and capacity development initiatives. The goal is to ensure access to protection and basic service and improved living conditions for all IDPs, including persons with specific needs (PSN), living in the IDP sites and collective centres. 
The Shelter/NFI Cluster priority will be targeted towards providing safe, appropriate and critical life-saving rehabilitation/ return kit. Through this, 850 households in Oromia and SNNPR will receive urgent need of life saving rehabilitation/ return kit in coordination with the Protection and Shelter/NFI Cluster through NGO and/or government partners. EHF funding will ease the pressure in the response and prevent further deterioration of the precarious living conditions of retirnees The project will be implemented in coordination with national and local authorities, the Emergency Operation Centres (EOC) and appointed site focal points, the Protection Cluster, the Shelter/NFI Cluster, as well as other relevant Clusters and partners, including IOM.
Strengthening Community Based Child Protection  GBV prevention  response in five  conflict affected woredas of East  West Wellega Zone , Oromiya Region In response to the existing humanitarian crises, World Vision Ethiopia intends to enhance protection, resilience and improve access to service for the returnee children and women in the selected Woredas affected by the conflict. The target Woredas are: LaloAsabi, Nadjo, Menesibu (West Wollega Zone) GitoGida amp Limu (East Wollega zone) within the project period of 6 months. World Vison envisages to consolidate the ongoing protection responses in its current operational zones of East amp West Wollega. 

The overall goal of the project is to improve the protection of the affected vulnerable children amp women. Towards this end, a multi-faceted approach will be used to achieve these major outcomes over the project life time. These include: Family Tracing and Re-unification (FTR) of unaccompanied and separated children, provision of psycho-social support for vulnerable children amp women, strengthening of case management systems in all target woredas , conducting awareness raising sessions on CP amp GBV, providing capacity development trainings on CP amp GBV related issues to different stakeholders etc.  
The range of services will contribute towards recovery and restoration of the victims as well as strengthening the community-based protection system including prevention of and responding to child protection concerns facilitate referral and follow up mechanisms. Through a serious of capacity building and life skills training interventions, the project will boost the resilience of adolescent girls in the target sites. The project also aims to address the need of IDP and returnees’ protection need and access to basic services through building the capacity of government stake holders and community based structures towards mitigating and responding to child protection risk factors.
Strengthening the in-patient management of severe acute malnutrition in selected  stabilization centers, woredas in Somali region Somali region has been affected by the drought as a result of delayed and sub-optimal 2019 spring (mid-February-May) rains. Consequently, crop planting was delayed or missed, while pasture and water sources were not replenished. The effects of the drought are being felt in most of Somali and pastoralist areas of Oromia and Afar regions. Reports of deteriorating food and nutritional security, water shortages and worsening livestock body conditions and livestock deaths have increased, while concerns are rising over pipeline breaks in emergency supplies and interruption of life-saving operations due to funding shortfalls. Some of the drought-affected areas are also hosting IDPs and returnees. Disease outbreaks such as measles and cholera, are further stretching the meagre Government and partners’ resources and adding another layer of complexity. 

Acute malnutrition remains a major public health concern especially for those that develop the severe acute malnutrition because of the associated high mortality. The situation may be worsened in the presence of disease outbreaks such as Cholera, measles and diarrhea and severe pneumonia. Although the risks of mortality are due to the immunological changes that occur in the affected individual, avoidable factors such as lack of skilled health care workers, lack of medicines for the treatment of medical complications can be resolved. The national guidelines for the management of acute malnutrition were recently endorsed in June 2019. The expected increase in SAM and MAM admissions that will occur because of the adoption of internationally recommended 2006 WHO standards and cut-off for the definition of Acute Malnutrition (AM) will start to come into effect end of Quarter 3. There is a need to effectively equip the national, regional and zonal health bureaus and the health facilities to manage the health and nutrition situation in the 15 prioritized woredas with serve needs.
Food insecurity and malnutrition coupled with disease outbreaks and weakened immunity and vulnerability after over a year in displacement in over-crowded and sub-standard living conditions have increased the risk of morbidity and mortality of affected communities. 

Therefore, the project will support and strengthen the regional, zonal and woreda health bureaus’ capacity to manage cases of severe acute malnutrition in line with the revised national guideline for management of acute malnutrition in emergency prone areas and improve quality of care for children hospitalized for SAM with medical complications in the referral level stabilization centers ensuring availability of additional essential drugs in the selected hospitals in Somali region.
Emergency Shelter and Non-Food Item Response for Displaced Communities in Ethiopia This project responds to the emergency shelter and non-food item needs of conflict-displaced households and host communities across Ethiopia, in accordance with the 2019 HRP priorities, Shelter amp NFI Cluster strategy, and priorities for this EHF allocation round. GOAL proposes a flexible response that will meet household needs in accordance with the context. 

The ESNFI need of 5600 households are expected to be met, using either a cash or in-kind modality, depending on the appropriateness and feasibility of each modality within each context, and based on market assessments. 
- In contexts where in-kind is identified as the recommended modality, GOAL will procure and distribute ESNFI kits in accordance with the Cluster standard, containing shelter, cooking, bedding and hygiene items. 
- Where cash is identified as the appropriate modality, GOAL will engage a financial service provider to carry out unconditional cash transfers for households with an estimated value in line with the minimum expenditure basket of an NFI kit in the local context.
- In some contexts, a mixed modality of in-kind with cash top-up may be proposed, where some but not all items are available on the local market to the quality/standard recommended.
The expected split between cash and in-kind is 30% cash, 70% in-kind.

GOAL expects to respond in the following Zones: East Hararghe, West Hararghe, and West Guji (Oromiya Region), Gedeo/Basketo (SNNP Region). Proposed Woredas (Abaya, Kercha, Gelana, Hambela, Dilla, Gedeb, Yirgachefe, and Kochere, etc....) are described in this proposal, however GOAL will remain flexible to respond in accordance with the needs and in discussion with the Cluster on priority locations. Additionally GOAL will be flexible to responding to the needs of IDPs/Returnees depending on the context and in discussion with the Cluster.
In addition to supporting IDP and returnee households, and expected 15% of total beneficiaries will be targeted from the most vulnerable host community households.

Protection concerns will be mainstreamed across all activities, to ensure that the needs of more vulnerable groups are met, to ensure participation, empowerment, meaningful access, accountability, and that interventions  prioritize safety and dignity and avoid causing harm.
Emergency agriculture recovery and resilience building Interventions for host community and  returnees  in Abay and Gelana woredas of West Guji Zone and Kochere woreda of Gedeo Zone Following the inter-communal violence that erupted between Gedeo and Guji along the borders of the Gedeo and Guji zones, people were internally displaced from both ethnic groups. These internally displaced people (IDPs) were in camp sites and with the host communities in both zones.  Authorities, with the engagement of community leaders (Aba Gedas), have held peace and reconciliation conferences with affected communities in order to find resolution to the root cause of the displacement. As a result, the displaced people returned to their original places with the support of government and non-governmental organizations.  Despite the efforts of restoring the livelihood of returnee IDPs with the meager resources’ support from government and social networks, these returnees  in the selected three woredas were hit by drought and found to be in hot-spot classification 1 and 2.  


The objective of this 6 months intervention is to contribute to the restoration of resilient livelihoods for 8,000 host and returnee households of Abaya, Galana and woredas in West Guji Zone and Kochere woreda on Gedeo Zone.  This submission is part of the EHF reserve allocation to address the recovery needs of returnees/IDPs. WVE’s specific contribution to this effort targets 2400 households in 3 Woredas in which all these households are hoping to restore their livelihoods that were affected by devastating conflict and drought. The negative impact of both especially that of conflict depleted fixed assets, capacity to reduce risk duet drought happened in the areas. The intervention woredas, Galana and Kochere are classified as hot spot 1 and Abaya was classified as hot spot Woreda 2. An estimated 30% of the beneficiaries will be women-headed households and 5% of the beneficiaries will be families with disabilities. 

WVE’s proposed interventions are in line with the objective of this round of allocation plan that focuses on humanitarian assistance with elements of recovery, specifically through provision of seeds appropriate for planting in the coming Belg season (March to June) on the selected staple food crops, maize and teff. Moreover, nutrition sensitive agriculture intervention is proposed on diversifying vegetable production. In addition livestock health intervention is quite useful aftermath drought and conflict. The implementation modality will be through cash and voucher for seeds  and vet drugs.
Increased access to quality primary education for returnees and Internally Displaced Persons (IDP) children in Fafan zone, Somali Region This project aims to ensure that returnees and IDPs children are provided with the opportunity to enroll in school, particularly for girls that those learners already registered can continue their schooling and that children are protected from physical and psychological abuse while in school. Out-of-school children will be given an opportunity to attend either formal or Accelerated Education Programme (AEP) as appropriate to their age, academic level, and need. Children who have missed out school for a significant period will be supported to re-enter formal primary schools but will take part in AEP to reach the same level as their peers. Before joining AEP, children will be assessed and enrolled at the right level and taught using the approved Ethiopian non-formal curriculum. Collaborations will be sought with the Regional Education Bureau (REB) to provide teachers who will facilitate teaching and learning.

Through direct support and coordination of the REB and Education Cluster, NRC will provide Temporary Learning Spaces (TLSs) with separate WASH facilities for girls and boys, ensure educational materials are supplied and offer lunch break snacks (high energy biscuits). The project will also support teachers with appropriate training on pedagogy, life skills, peace education and psychosocial support to improve the quality of teaching provided and thus the retention of children in school, train PTA members to ensure proper management and maintenance of schools. The interventions will be complemented by community mobilization to increase the enrolment of out-of-school children.
Emergency Seed support to IDP Returnees  in West Hararghe zone of Oromia Region. CARE proposes a Five-month emergency seed assistance project to contribute to the livelihood recovery of IDP Returnees who have been affected by conflict, prolonged drought and food insecurity in West Hararghe zone of Oromia Region. Even in normal years , West Hararghe is a chronically food insecure area due to fragmented land holding size, erratic weather conditions and harvests are usually subject to the attacks of a host of insects and disease.   On top of natural crisis, since 2018 people have been displaced due to conflicts between Oromo and Somali in the border areas of the two regions. Farming is the primary livelihood  of the majority of the IDP and IDP returnees of West Hararghe. Agricultural assistance is needed to support  these people to go back to their old normal lives and resume their livelihood activities. 

With this in mind, based on the Agriculture cluster priorities, the proposed seed provision project will support severely affected and vulnerable small-holder IDP Returnees to recover from the drought and displacement crisis . By supporting target households with a variety of seeds to plant short cycle crops for the upcoming Meher agricultural season, This project will contribute to the increased food production and livelihood recovery of targeted 25600 IDPs Returnee households in Meisso, Daro lebu and Doba woredas located in West Hararghe zone. Proposed areas of intervention have been discussed with the ATF and the Agriculture cluster at Federal level and proved to be among the prioritized areas for EHF 2019 1st round allocation.
Emergency Nutrition Response in three woredas of Somali Regions of Ethiopia Save the Children proposes provision of lifesaving, emergency nutrition services for 75161 Men, women, boys and girls including 13741 IDPs to reduce morbidity and mortality of infants, young children and pregnant and lactating women in drought and conflict-affected communities in Somali Region, Ethiopia. Target locations include the three selected priority 1 hotspot woredas and prioritized by nutrition cluster and ICCG: Babili (Fafan), Doloado (Liban) and Afdem (Siti). The proposed project will prevent, detect and treat acute malnutrition through gender sensitive Community Management of Acute Malnutrition (CMAM) including Therapeutic Feeding (TF) and Targeted Supplementary Feeding (TSF) for moderately malnourished children 6 to 59 months old and malnourished PLW. The project will support prevention of acute malnutrition through improvement of optimal Infant and Young Child Feeding in Emergency (IYCF-E) practices for infants and young children under 24 months and support the nutritional needs of pregnant and lactating women (PLW). Project targets are as follows: 699 cases of SAM and 12,036 cases of MAM. The 80% of MAM cases and PLW will receive TSFP services. Save the Children will ensure continuum of care by linking OTP discharged children with TSFP in all areas.

In line with the 2019 Ethiopian Humanitarian and Disaster Resilience Plan (HDRP) and EPRP in Somali region, the proposed project will deliver a full-spectrum emergency nutrition intervention (CMAM) including prevention, treatment, management, community mobilization and case identification, and key capacity building for Regional Health Bureaus and health workers to achieve and sustain impact. Exceptionally vulnerable women and children in drought-affected and conflict induced communities will be prioritized for services.
Surveillance and front line response to IDP and returnee generated public health emergencies in SNNP, Somali, Oromia and Benishangul Gumuz regions. This project will address the needs of overburdened existing health system in response to the increased demand caused by massive forced conflict-associated displacement and returns in priority zones in Benishangul Gumuz, SNNP, Oromia and Somali regions. The project will address the increased risk of communicable disease by supporting the strengthening of zonal PHEM to carry out health surveillance/early warning, rapid response and containment as well as operational support for Rapid Response Mechanism for the affected areas. The project will provide logistics for rapid response teams so that they can immediately investigate outbreak alerts. The project will also strengthen the rapid response by providing refresher training for zonal PHEM surveillance/early warning teams in the two-targeted zones on the integrated early warning system, maintenance of the database of PHEM alert and investigation operations using the standard recommended format (national and WHO). This includes information on the date/time of the notification, date time of the event and lag time until investigation initiated, alert type, number of cases and deaths, samples, numbers, laboratory results (and the lag time) and interventions carried out.

Somali region faces specific humanitarian crises as a result of superimposed humanitarian events and has therefore triggered a special regional allocation which is included in this proposal. Over one million people have been displaced (50% of the IDPs are children) within the Somali region, which continue to experience repetitive and predictable crises including drought, and floods, disease outbreaks (especially measles and Cholera), and acute malnutrition. Moreover, acute shortages of water are already being experienced owing to failure or shortage of rain, and this will affect the lives and livelihoods of pastoralist and agro-pastoralist communities, their production, markets and sources of income and other social service. An upsurge of conflict IDPs was reported around the border areas of Oromia and Somali regions since early September 2017. Over the course of the following months, the conflict has left hundreds of thousands displaced, often in areas already experiencing ongoing drought related humanitarian needs. Nearly all districts along the regional borders are affected. According to the DTM, the estimated number of people displaced is 1.1 million who are not still getting adequate assistance. Malaria, acute watery diarrhea and measles are major anticipated health risks 2019 due to the high IDP caseload, poor sanitation practices in the IDP and returnee transit sites and compromised access to health care services. A flood alert has already been issued for low lying areas of Somali region according to 2019 National flood contingency plan. 


This proposed project also specifically aims at responding to the active Cholera outbreak in North Gondar zone of Amhara Region and measles affected zones in Somali and Oromia regions and at-risk surrounding areas.
Protection Assistance for Prioritized IDP and Returnees Areas In line with the Protection Cluster prioritization note, the project will provide protection monitoring/ assessment for IDPs and returnees in Oromia region,particularly East and West Hararge area . In that regard, UNHCR will support the capacity development of local authorities and engaged partners to integrate protection considerations into planning and response to the IDP situation. Protection monitoring will identify persons with specific need and provide service for persons with disabilities and older persons at-risk.
