RBDS Business Plan and Budget Sierra Leone In countries in transition, such as  Sierra Leone, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), are important contributors to economic growth and job creation, especially in the agricultural, commercial and light manufacturing sectors. However, these SMEs face many external and internal constraints, such as weak financial and internal management capacity, poor market linkages, poor Business Development Services (BDS), and inadequate access to finance. As a result, many SMEs fail to grow. Transitional economies are characterized by this ‘missing middle’ of stable, mid-sized companies. These SMEs are too big to access capital from micro-finance institutions and too small to qualify for investments from commercial banks, and therefore stuck at a level where they remain vulnerable and unable to fulfill their potential as drivers of the local economy. Drawing on Cordaid’s long experience working in fragile and conflict-prone areas, the program will deal specifically with the unique challenges facing SMEs in these countries. This holistic approach includes building links between SMEs and financial institutions, amongst others our own Stability Impact Fund Africa (SIFA).  The program also aims to strengthen the capacities of Business Service Providers. Based on our own on the ground research, we have defined these SMEs as having at least five people on the pay roll who are not family members; having a turnover between 25.000 and 1,5 million euros and assets between 25.000 and 1,5 million euros, and an investment requirement of 10.000 to 300.000 euros.
Provide a comprehensive, integrated and community package for mental health and psychosocial support With this increasing number of returnees, the need for more sustainable MHPSS, GBV and PR services is getting higher. DoH is not ready for the hand-over process and is not able yet to run the departments of MHPSS and PR all by itself. In order to see a positive impact on personal and community level, with no other actors in the areas, a long-term project (one year or more) in Telafar and Sinjar is required to cover 340,356 returnee in Telafar and 68,130 returnee in Sinjar districts of Ninawa governorate.

The project is designed to respond to the needs of the vulnerable targeted returnees dis-aggregated by age group and gender, especially women and adolescent girls (+ 12 years old) who are more prone for GBV and Psychosocial suffering. 1)	Continuous provision of a comprehensive package of mental health services. Improve the capacity of MHPSS actors, healthcare- and humanitarian workers to increase their response to GBV. Promote reconciliation and social cohesion in Telafar.
2)	Continuous provision of services for people with disabilities: basic physical rehabilitation, screening and referral services in Sinjar and Telafar. IDPs, Returnees & Host communities
Integrating MHPSS Across Cordaid Thematics (IMPACT) Uganda The Integrating MHPSS Across Cordaid Thematics (IMPACT) project is an upcoming project that responds directly to recognition that the impact of diverse Cordaid interventions in support of vulnerable women and men in fragile and conflict-affected contexts will be inadequate and unsustainable if pervasive mental health needs are left unaddressed. The project will attempt to show linkages between MHPSS and humanitarian work; demonstrate intersections between mental health and psychosocial wellbeing and justice and security sectors and clearly bring out the importance of integrating MHPSS as part of the continuum of care for survivors of GBV. 

Cordaid already incorporates MHPSS as part of an integrated approach in West Nile region, but aspires to develop an integrated, adaptive package of interventions that connects MHPSS activities to  a continuum of services for (S)GBV survivors in Uganda. The action research will constitute IMPACT phase 1 of the Uganda trajectory (2020) of a multi-country project and inform Cordaid planning for (and the enabling environment of) IMPACT phase 2 (piloting) will largely consist of piloting the models that would have been developed in phase 1 to ascertain efficacy of the project design, identify change elements and fine tune the interventions 1. Generate grounded, programme-relevant insights on the MHPSS needs of (S)GBV survivors in West Nile, and MHPSS needs of refugee and host family communities 
2. Co-produce with refugee and host communities actionable solutions for delivering  a package that integrates MHPSS support to (S)GBV survivors alongside other social support services.  
3. Iteratively test solutions and  opportunities for scale-up where possible, documenting and jointly analysing results with refugee and host communities
4. Inform and influence the development of policy frameworks in Uganda and globally that support constructive linkages between mental health and access to justice and health care for (S)GBV survivors SGBV Survivors are the primary targets. other key stake holders will involve; health sector, legal aid providers, Refugee Welfare Council (RWC) system, Local Councils and Local Council Courts (LCCs), UNHCR and protection agencies, and Justice Law and Order Sector (JLOS) institutions.
Projet d'appui à la fourniture des services SSR et de VBG à Bouar et Bangassou This project supports the provision of SRH and GBV services, as well as awareness campaigns against COVID-19 to populations affected (IDPs, refugees, host communities) by the electoral crisis in two sub-prefectures in CAR (Bouar and Bangassou). By 2021, Central African populations, particularly the most vulnerable or at risk, will be using basic social services in a sustainable manner, particularly health (education, social protection, water and sanitation according to quality standards, etc.).
Expected Program Output(s) D'ici 2021 les populations centrafricaines les plus vulnérables ou à risque, utilisent les services sociaux de base de facon durable en particulier la santé, l'education, la protection sociale, l'eau et l'assainissement selon les normes de qualité. 625 femmes et filles survivantes de VBG seront prises en charge pans le cadre du projet
Supporting Conflict Affected IDPs in Afar region, Ethiopia The humanitarian context in Afar region has drastically deteriorated since the spillover of the conflict in Tigray in July 2021. Prior to this conflict, the region had already significant humanitarian needs due to drought, conflict, and disease outbreaks as per the 2021 Humanitarian Response Plan Mid-Year Review. Over the past few weeks, while the border regions of Tigray and Amhara have been relatively calm, heavy clashes were reported in Afar Region (incl. by UNOCHA - ). This recent conflict has had a heavy toll on affected communities. Several hundreds of thousands of people in Afar region were uprooted from their homes in search of safety and assistance. The UNOCHA situation reports1-2 indicate that 200.000 people have been displaced due to the recent fighting, and new IDPs are coming in every day as fighting continues. The vast majority of the displaced have been living with the host community, while others are sheltered in IDP sites, including in schools with minimal assistance. According to the Afar regional authorities, many IDPs are scattered in remote areas with little or no access to critical items such as food and water. This is confirmed by an assessment conducted by local partner APDA. Serious malnutrition rates are already reported. is to provide emergency supports for conflict affected IDPs in Afar region, Ethiopia. The proposed intervention aims to reach 2,130 Households (HHs) (10,650 individuals) in Sifera and Magaale Woreda of Afar region through the distribution of Food for 880 HHs and Shelter NFIs for 1,250 HHs. APDA will implement the proposed interventions in consultation and coordination with DPFSPCO, the shelter cluster group and the Afar Emergency Coordination Committee under the leadership of OCHA. The target beneficiaries of food and shelter NFI will be IDPs who are temporarily hosted by the local community. APDA will refer cluster standards and use its existing community structures and partnership with key stakeholders in beneficiary selection process. Thus, the proposed project will target the most vulnerable HHs who constitute affected children, girls, women, female headed HHs, and households with special needs (PSN) including PWD, PLW, elders, and person chronically ill people who have been affected by the conflict.
Appui d'urgence en Eau, Hygiène et Assainissement aux ménages de retournés dans Koui, Bocaranga, Bozoum The situation in the Ouham Pendé prefecture has been characterized by chronic conflicts among rival armed groups causing massive movement of populations but also chronic vulnerability as returnees fear resurgence of violence and consequently rebuild their livelihood. 
Boreholes have been used during conflicts as mass graves and the protracted absence of the government and the governmental agencies leave a serious gap in the services in the zones particularly in the WASH sector. 
The Cordaid monitoring report indicate that more than 80% in the Bocaranga-Koui-Bozoum axis don’t have access to safety drinking water and hygienic toilette; therefore, practice open defecation, which is a source of water contamination in the bush. The few existing water points (rehabilitated a few years ago), are out of use. 
To date, there is no humanitarian actor who is positioned in this area in the WASH sector

Given the humanitarian situation and recommendations from the Wash Cluster and OCHA (Bocaranga Office, Cordaid propose The response through this allocation to target mainly the 13719 most affected populations in 13 villages in this axis (Bocaranga-Koui-Bozoum), including displaced people, host community and support for the returned populations in order to reduce their vulnerability through two main specific objectives: 

1. Providing by the end of April 2019, access to safe water to the 13719 men, women, boys and girls of Bocaranga-Koui Bozoum axis, affected by violence related to armed conflict;

2. Preventing and reducing, by the end of April 2019, the risk of transmission and outbreak water-borne diseases including cholera, diphtheria, dysentery ; through the creation of more awareness to the population on Hygiene and sanitation good practices. This will focus particularly on the organizations of Sensitization sessions, distribution of hygiene kits of course the creation of community mechanisms such as Water Point Management committees and Community Sensitizers/mobilizers to h 13719 men, women, boys and girls of Bocaranga-Koui Bozoum axis, affected by violence related to armed conflict
Hygiene and food assistance to conflict affected IDPs in North East Syria The project is first of all addressing an acute need, of recently and newly displaced persons following the Turkish invasion; 2. The project also is in line with repeated requests of UNOCHA to provide a multi-sectoral assistance 3. The project will also allow Cordaid to establish presence (through partner) in the area, which is different from the on-going Syria activities. In the event the DRA ACM will be activated, Cordaid will be able to apply for the ACM and consequently Cordaid will be able to scale up existing activities rather quickly; 4. The acute funds will be used to continue to build Cordaid’s track record in country and to position Cordaid for future funding (2020) for CHF and ECHO To improve the immediate living conditions of 10,000 people (60% children, 40% adults) in North East Syria Cordaid targets those who are most vulnerable and marginalized affected people, including: Women headed families; Families with elderly/chronically ill family members; Families with members having physical/mental disability, Vulnerable Households with children under five years old and/or pregnant women and/or lactating women;Very Large Family (8 members or more) with only one adult having an income; - Very Poor Families;
Provision of winter assistance to vulnerable HH in Daikundi Province The 1st Standard Allocation allows Cordaid and OHW to provide the urgently needed winterization assistance to the most vulnerable people, extremely vulnerable families  having at least one person with special need. Daikundi is an isolated province with difficult terrain and poor access to main business centers of the country. The province is on the top of ICCT winter prioritization list, where vulnerable HHs are expected to face harsh winter with critical living conditions due to altitude, temperature, cold weather and lack of access to market during the winter.
During the winter season, most of the districts will have limited access to the main center or will be completely disconnected from the center of province. The province is agriculturally one of the least productive provinces as most of the land is barren and inaccessible with serious water shortages that cause extensive food insecurity. Due to Low economic conditions and lack of opportunities, there is a large percentage of person with disability and person with special need whose vulnerabilities have increased because of the difficult geography and being hard-to-reach area. Unemployment rate is very high, people have limited or no food stocks and are already relying on negative coping strategies for their survival. People cannot afford the cost of winterization materials and are in need of heating materials, warm clothing and blankets To save lives, reduce the suffering and improve the living conditions and dignity of most vulnerable people during winter by provision of seasonal winter assistance to the most vulnerable HHs in Daikundi Province Total 1550 individuals( 2079 Men, 2079 Women,3812 Boys and 3580 Girl

Integrated Maternal Healthcare Program As a result of various successful interventions of government and civil society in maternal health in Ethiopia the maternal mortality rate reduced from 1400 in 1990 to 353 in 2015 (WHO, 2015).  However, the maternal mortality rate in pastoralist areas, remains high. For example in Afar the maternal mortality rate was still very high in 2011 with 717 deaths per 100,000 births (EDHS 2011).  Cultural, social and economic factors at community level make that very few women attend maternal health care services. The health care services that are available are few, ill equipped and understaffed. At the same time the quality of the training of health workers, more specifically midwives, leaves a lot to be desired. The project contributes to reduction of Maternal and Neonatal Mortality Ratio from 420 to 199 per 100,000 and from 28 to 10 per 1,000 live births respectively by 2020 by: setting up Maternal Waiting Homes (MWH) overcoming the second Delay; contributing to 24-hour comprehensive obstetric quality care (third delay); and awareness raising (first delay).

Solving shortages of essential health commodities and acute problems in the supply chain during the COVID-19 pandemic in three fragile countries. The Covid-19 epidemic is having a large impact on the most fragile countries in the world where health systems are weak and ill-prepared for prevention and mitigation activities. Supply chains of essential health commodities to health facilities have also been disrupted aggravating the impact on the sector. Low income countries lack the funds to implement their Covid-19 Readiness and Response plans. There is a lack of PPE (personal protection equipment) for health staff and for community health workers and in shortage of supplies and medicines is bound to have a negative impact on the provision and use of primary health care services and on sexual and reproductive health (SRH) services. In the countries where Cordaid has its largest health programmes (DRC, CAR and Burundi), we can expect poor public health outcomes and results. 
To mitigate these effects Cordaid management approved 1.192.621 for these three countries for procuring PPE, medicines and medical supplies with the technical support of I+solutions, a supply-chain specialist with whom Cordaid has worked successfully in a.o. DRC. The primary objective was to provide an initial boost to country-owned initiatives to respond accurately and timely to possibly upcoming Covid-19 epidemic community-transmitted outbreaks in three fragile countries where Cordaid  has sizable health programs, i.e. Burundi, Central African Republic and Democratic Republic of Congo.
A secondary objective referred to creating goodwill for Cordaid with government and donors so that Cordaid would be considered as a trustworthy and action-oriented International NGO, willing and able to contribute to the in-country Covid-19 plans for preparedness and responses. The appreciation would also include Cordaid’s ability to provide procurement services in partnership with I+ Solutions.
Another secondary objective was to explore partnership with i+solutions on procurement, rather than just strengthening the supply-chain in-country which was the experience of cooperation between the two organizations until then. This with a view to an eventual framework agreement between the two organizations. The ultimate beneficiaries are the populations of health catchment areas served by Cordaid health projects in Burundi, Central African Republic and Democratic Republic of Congo, the health staff of these facilities and Cordaid programme staff.
Education in Emergencies in CAR Education Cannot Wait is managed by a Secretariat that is hosted and administered within UNICEF as the initiative is incubating and scaling up. In CAR this is coordinated by the Education cluster in which Cordaid Humanitarian Unit is active with 11 other INGOs. The four existing partners of ECW in CAR are: PLAN, Norvegian Refugee Council, Intersos, and UNICEF. The annual budget is around 10 million USD. There has been a mission of ECW to CAR in May 2018 whereby Cordaid has been approached as potential newcomer for 2019 as the existing partners did not succeed in spending all of the funds in 2018. An policy education framework is expected to be finalized in October 2018 after which organizations can submit a proposal. (i) Strengthen the capacity of teachers ; 
(ii) Improve the working conditions of pupils and parent/teachers; 
iii) Transfer of responsibility to the community through the parents' associations. The beneficiairies are the Central African children, teachers -parents
