Scaling Up Cholera Preparedness, Prevention  Response to Most Vulnerable  People at Risk to Cholera in Amran  Taiz Governorates. Oxfam will reach 35,000 people in the governorates that have been most affected, or at risk, by the second surge of cholera, namely Amran and Taiz, through the immediate prioritisation and scale up of the following interventions over a 4 month period: 
- Access to safe water through water trucking emergency repair of water supply schemes (WSS) disinfection of wells and water sources support to water committees and provision of fuel and consumables for operation and maintenance (0ampM) of WSS
- Cholera focused hygiene promotion through the development of updated hygiene messages for cholera prevention and control mobilisation of community volunteers to carry out cholera focused hygiene promotion campaigns distribution of hygiene kits supported by IEC materials, and prepositioning of WASH contingency stock
- Adequate sanitation through cholera focused NFI environmental cleaning kits construction of appropriate emergency latrines and hand washing facilities in areas that have been identified as at risk and health facilities latrine kit distribution to ensure cleanliness of latrines supported by environmental cleaning campaigns and solid and liquid waste management.

The proposed activities will build on Oxfam’s current programme, where we are reaching more than 300,000 people.

The proposed response has been developed in line with the rapid needs assessments that have been carried out across each governorate as well as in coordination with the WASH cluster and other actors present in the governorates. Although Oxfam has adopted the current programming to respond to the risk of cholera through activities such as awareness raising, hygiene promotion and hand washing campaigns, cholera focused response is required to contain and prevent further spread of the infection.

Oxfam will maintain support of local water corporations and General Authority for Rural Water Projects (GARWAP) for operation and maintenance of water supply schemes and will also ensure coordination with health authorities, health actors and health facilities.
Envelope 3: Integrated Health and WASH rapid response to Cholera outbreak in Almahweet Governorate Over the project duration of six months, YFCA plans to continue implementing integrated Health and WASH rapid interventions to respond to Cholera outbreak at two districts of Almahweet governorate using the controlling approach of cholera response strategic plan developed by health and WASH clusters. The main objective of implementing this project is to provide life-saving assistance to the most vulnerable people in Almahweet governorate through effective prevention and timely response.
Despite the humanitarian intervention in Almahweet governorate, the cholera continues to affect thousands of people. As of 25 September, suspected cholera cases reported since 27 April have reached 42,641 with 140 associated deaths. 
YFCA had already completed response interventions in Almahweet at Shibam, At Tawilah and Bani Saad districts by supporting 3 DTCs and 15 ORCS from the 2nd reserve allocation and it aimes to continue the response as a preventive measures for the expected third wave. The controlling approach used under this project had been selected for Almahweet as it is one of the high- risk governorates in the country being reporting new cholera cases almost in a daily basis with alarming increasing numbers reported from different locations including new areas with no past history of cholera cases.
Three main groups of activities will be implemented to respond to the cholera outbreak in Almahweet which are: 1) Early/rapid response activities, 2) Integrated response activities and 3) Integrated prevention activities focused on WASH, Health and Communication for Development (C4D) strategy to protect people at all levels.

Coordination with health and WASH clusters and GHO and DHOs has already done to support continuation of already done intervention and to avoid any duplication with other partners. All stakeholders will be coordinated during the implementation of activities with focus on close coordination with the Cholera task force in Almahweet and strengthen the stewardship of local health and WASH institutions to enable them performing in more effective and efficient ways.

YFCA will monitor this project activities using concentrated modalities and tools at the central, governorate and field levels with giving more attention to on time reports in WASH and health areas. Project staff will contain experts dedicated in full time contracts to fulfill the specific tasks in administrative and technical aspects in addition to YFCA staff at the head office and governorate units who will participate in providing the needed support to the field team.

YFCA will ensure mainstreaming of protection and gender concepts during the designing and implementing stages of this project as well as to demonstrate its accountability for beneficiaries and affected communities and their engagement in monitoring this project and take responsibility to improve and enhance the overall community awareness and best practices in WASH and Health areas.
Emergency Cholera Outbreak Response in Affected and High-Risk Areas in Yemen This proposal is an emergency cholera response and as such, does not match the Standard Health and WASH Cluster Objectives or SRP Objectives. RI has designed this proposal in accordance with the YHPF 2017 Second Reserve Allocation Strategy Paper Health and WASH Clusters' Integrated Response Plan (shared 19 May 2017) the Yemen WASH SOPs and UNICEF Cholera Toolkit. The proposed intervention will contribute to Health and WASH Cluster Objectives by including activities related to Surveillance, Case Management, Capacity Building, Infection Prevention and Control, and Public Awareness according to “ANNEX 6: Response Matrix” of the Health and WASH Clusters' Integrated Response.

RI is proposing to implement this project in 9 districts in 3 governorates. All of these districts are prioritized by the Health and WASH Clusters' Integrated Response Plan where cholera has already been reported. The remaining district, Bakil Al Mir, had not had any reported cholera at the time the Integrated Response Plan was written, however, it is high risk due to its proximity to neighboring districts where cholera is being reported, and, at the time of writing this proposal (20 May) 12 cases of AWD were reported by the GHO Surveillance Unit. These cases were 5 females and 6 males (one male has died). 

The project will focus on transmission, diagnosis, treatment and prevention/control by establishing 3 Diarrhea Treatment Centres (DTCs) and 12 Oral Re-hydration Points (ORPs) The intervention will be implemented by RI in partnership with local NGO (LNGO), All Girls Foundation for Development (AGFD). AGFD will distribute cholera kits (including aqua-tabs) raise community awareness on how to use the items and promote health and hygiene. As such, the proposed intervention includes a local capacity-building component where RI will be responsible for managing AGFD’s section of the project. 

RI has been assigned responsibility for Hajjah and Sana’a governorates by OCHA and will accordingly undertake the appropriate responsibilities.
Addressing protection and shelter needs of IDPs in Hajjah and Hudaydah governorates, and provision of NFIs for the most vulnerable IDPs This project has two objectives and is valued at $3,458,047.40.
UNHCR as lead agency for Shelter/NFI/CCCM and Protection, will leverage its expertise in these areas to ensure integrated response in Hajjah governorate. According UNHCR needs assessment conducted in April 2017, which was followed by a number of field visits, key informants interviews, missions, it was determined that over 10,000 families (approximately 70,000 individuals) reside in at least seven (7) separate settlements namely Al-Manjjorah, Al-Okashia, Al- Merwagh, Al-Makhzan, Dorina Al Sesia, and Dorina Al-Olyia,and Walah in Abs district. Similarly, listing conducted by ExU, which UNHCR will verify indicates 282 IDP hosting sites throughout Hajjah, hosting over 81,788 IDPs. These families live in substandard conditions including improvised shelters. As such, these settlements require site management services (CCCM) and transitional shelters to ensure physical and mental protection, legal services, health and well-being. 
The first objective aims at addressing the immediate multi-sectors needs of IDPs residing in multiple settlements of Hajjah governorate including the HPF prioritized districts of Abs, Mustaba, Bakil Al Mir, Aslem Hajran and Kharyan Al Muharraq, Kushar, Kuhlan Ash Sharaf, Al Miftah, Al Jamimah districts. Firstly, UNHCR aims to provide CCCM support to IDP hosting sites and spontaneous settlements reaching at least 10,000 families indirectly. UNHCR will directly assist 2,500 of the most vulnerable IDP families (17,500 individuals) by providing them with a transitional shelter solution constructed with locally available materials . These shelters are in accordance with local culture and traditions, and are best fit for the harsh climatic conditions in the area of intervention. UNHCR aims at complementary provision of NFI kits to those same 2,500 HHs assisted with the transitional shelter. UNHCR believes that this integrated approach will the best address the needs of the vulnerable strata of the displaced population.   
Under the second objective, UNHCR partners will establish maintain one IDP Family Center in Hajjah and open a new Center in Hudaydah. Both Centers will support the protection needs of 80,053 IDP families (TFPM figure) in both governorates through establishment of central location to receive protection services such as legal advices and psychosocial counselling, conducting outreach visits, protection monitoring and the multipurpose cash grants to address pressing protection needs. Directly, the centers will directly assist 3,000 families with multi-purpose cash grants and provide protection services to 14,000 IDPs.
Integrated Emergency WASH Response with nutrition/health and Child Protection This is a multi-sectoral project which aims to provide WASH and child protection services in the targeted locations integrated with existing health, nutrition and food security interventions. The planned activities will directly contribute towards addressing the immediate causes of food insecurity and malnutrition by ensuring adequate access to WASH and child protection services through an integrated response together with health and nutrition response by reaching both IDPs and host communities

Conflict-torn people of Yemen continue to be deprived of many of their basic human rights and social services. The current situation has further aggravated the conditions of people as a result of the worsening famine-like situation. As a result of limited accessibility to import mechanisms and the disruption to supply chains of food and medicines, the rise in the number of food insecure population is alarming: recent IPC (Integrated Food Security Phase Classification) data estimates that seven governorates accommodating 60 per cent of the country’s population are now at IPC Phase 4- Emergency. This means 17 million Yemenis are not able to feed themselves adequately and are frequently forced to miss meals and/or eat food of poor nutritional value. Furthermore, based on the first assessment's findings of the ES NFI and CCCM clusters’ partners, 21 per cent of protracted IDP families live in collective centers or spontaneous settlements. The centers include schools, mosques, health facilities and government buildings where children have experienced different types of violence, abuse, exploitation and neglect.

The WASH component of the project will comprise life-saving interventions with provision of safe drinking water supply and sanitation services by rehabilitating and/or repairing systems both at community and institutional level. The hygiene component will provide essential supplies along with key messages designed on C4D approaches for promoting safe practices. Furthermore, it will contribute in strengthening the technical capacities of the WASH cluster partners at national and sub-national level. The planned WASH interventions will benefit 449,751 people in Saada and Hadramaut governorates as well in IDPs settlements/locations as identified by the child protection sub-cluster.

The child protection interventions will comprise of psychosocial support to conflict affected children through fixed and mobile child friendly spaces organizing recreational and awareness activities as well as the identification and referral of vulnerable children to trained social workers. Furthermore, UNICEF as the co-chair of the Country Task Force on Monitoring and Reporting on grave violations against children rights is establishing a network of child protection committees able to detect and identify cases of grave violations against children. This will benefit directly 35,100 affected children and 408,048 indirectly in governorates and districts. 

The total beneficiaries of WASH and child protection interventions will be 449,751 people in the targeted locations.
