Integrated services to crisis affected communities in Abergele, Tsagibiji, Ziquala and Habru Woredas in the Amhara region ltpgtPAD is proposing an integrated emergency response project in Ziquala, Abergele, Tsagibiji, and Habru woredas of the Waghimira and North Wollo zones in Amhara Region, to support crisis affected IDPs, affected host communities and recently returned vulnerable persons. The proposed project aims to provide immediate lifesaving humanitarian support to those who are in need. ltbrgtThe focus areas include MPCA, ESNFI, as well as Nutrition. PAD plans to implement this project in collaboration with Action for Sustainable Development and Environmental Protection Organization (ASDEPO) as co-implementing partner. ASDEPO brings expertise in Nutrition and an active national nutrition cluster member with an extensive experience in different parts of the country.  UNOCHA's report (OCHA, November, 2023) highlights the need for immediate intervention in all sectors in Waghimira zone mainly for affected vulnerable groups such as women and children. The multidimensional crises, including armed conflict, displacement, and drought have increased the risks faced by these groups. The affected communities’ resort to negative coping mechanisms such as child marriage, family separation, child labor and migration due to challenges in meeting basic needs. Safety concerns in the target woreda increasingly improved as compared with the previous three months. This allows PAD and ASDEPO to intervene and execute planned activities within the stated time-frame. ltbrgtTo address the urgent nutrition related crisis, ASDEPO will implement activities to respond to the needs of children, pregnant and lactating mothers in Ziquala and Tsagibiji woredas. ltbrgtWhereas, PAD will execute ESNFI and MPCA sectors activities to the prevailing needs in Ziquala and Abergele woredas. Using the three sectors, MPCA, Nutrition and ESNFI, PAD and ASDEPO will address a total of 17,601 (F=11,381) crisis affected individuals with a total budget of $800,000 USD. Of which, 531 (F=360) are persons with disabilities and close to 65% of the total beneficiaries are females. ltbrgtThe proposed activities and budget allocation are based on the needs identified in three woredas following the multisectoral assessment conducted by ASDEPO and PAD as well as OCHA.  The project aims to integrate immediate lifesaving response activities with durable solutions that contribute to the recovery and resilience of the target populations. Cross-cutting areas such as gender equality, protection, and accountability are mainstreamed throughout the proposed project activities. Proper monitoring and evaluation will be conducted by PAD and ASDEPO to inform program management decisions based on evidence from the field. Joint monitoring sessions will also be conducted periodically with government counterparts. PAD and ASDEPO actively participate in the cluster system at both national and sub-national levels. Efforts will be made to strengthen coordination and reporting of project activities to the donor and clusters via Activity Info. ltbrgtlt/pgt

An Integrated multi-sectoral emergency support to returnees in Asgede and Selekleka woredas, Tigray Region ltpgtThis project aims to provide a comprehensive and life-saving response to conflict-affected communities in Asgede and Selkleka woredas. The implementing organization, DPO, along with its sub-implementing partners, is undertaking a multi-sectoral approach to address the urgent needs identified through a recent assessment. The sectors that will be targeted include WASH (Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene), ESNFI (Emergency Shelter and Non-Food Items), Education, CCCM and MPC activities.ltbrgtThe DPO’s assessment has revealed critical findings across the identified sectors of intervention. In terms of shelter, there is a severe shortage of shelters, with IDPs residing in overcrowded conditions within classrooms, lacking privacy and basic NFI kits. WASH facilities are compromised, with non-functional shallow well hand pumps, partially functional toilets, and a need for water treatment supplies. The education sector has been significantly impacted, leading to a halt in children’s attendance due to damaged infrastructure, displacement, and economic pressures. The assessment underscores the urgent need for intervention and support in these key areas. ltbrgtIn response to these identified needs, DPO is planning to implement a range of multi-sectoral activities. These include the provision of alternative shelter through construction of duplex shelters and rental assistance, provision of NFIs, initiatives to promote education through back-to-school campaigns and basic repairs to school infrastructure and CCCM at the shelter centers. Additionally, WASH activities will focus on desludging latrine facilities and the maintenance of water supply systems in target schools. Lastly, MPC support will be provided to help affected communities strengthen their livelihoods. By addressing these urgent needs across the sectors, the aim is to provide integrated and tailored support to the conflict-affected communities in the two woredas.ltbrgtlt/pgt
Comprehensive Support to Resume Education Services in Axum Town, Central Zone of Tigray Region ltpgtltspangtBased on the information obtained from the Rehabilitation department of Social Affairs Office of Axum town above 80% above of the people have had experienced very high levels of financial and livelihood losses and/or deterioration of basic services in last six months as a result of the recent crisis. With regard to education service, our primary data collected on September 16, 2023 from same government office confirms that almost all school-aged children in the community have stopped attending school or reduced their attendance because of the negative situation in last 6 months. The most prevailing factors that hinder the school learning process are schoolslt/spangtltspangt’ infrastructure and teaching equipment are destroyed and schools are being used to host displaced people. This project proposal is designed to accelerate the resumption of a hugely disrupted education service in three selected schools in Axum town, Central Zone of Tigray region. Since the last few years, 7,691 students of these three schools have ceased attendance due to this massive disruption which could carry profound and lasting implications for the region's human capital development. At the moment, these three schools are serving as temporary shelter for 28,196 internally displace people. Apart from the consequence of the conflict, being the shelter of over-populated IDPs damages most of the schools’ infrastructures and hence it can no longer give the same service as before unless and otherwise important rehabilitation is done. Besides, the data from the need assessment indicates that humanitarian aid has never been provided in the community at all and this finding highlights the urgent need for intervention to address the community's priority needs. In terms of priority needs, respondents ranked "food security," "shelter," and "health" as top choices, aligning with the immediate requirements of a post-conflict community seeking to rebuild their lives and regain stability. Overall, the assessment finding underscores the complex challenges faced by students and IDPs in Axum town in the post-conflict and the necessity of a comprehensive and integrated humanitarian responses to support recovery and resilience-building efforts. Thus, this project proposal selected four main clusters which are CCCM, Education, Wash, ESNFI, and Protection among OCHA’s priority clusters and prioritized locations are schools allocated for IDPs and schools shared by IDPs. With this understanding, the project aims to re-locate those IDPs dwelling in the three schools and rehabilitate the schools’ infrastructure so as to ensure that students can continue their education.lt/spangtltbrgtlt/pgtltpgtltspangtlt/spangtlt/pgt
