Provision of Emergency Assistance to Syrian refugees 2017-2018 The aim of the programmme is to support Lebanese Red Cross (LRC) in its intervention lessening the impact of the crisis on vulnerable communities (Syrian and host Lebanese) in remote areas near the Syrian borders and in the areas where the unregistered Syrian population reside in higher numbers, such as Tripoli and Beqaa Valley. Military conflicts and refugee influx in these areas are putting lot of pressure on LRC EMS stations and DMU branches. Frequent security skirmishes and military search operations are the norm. The relief activities will be targeting 1100 families living in informal tented settlements (ITS) in Akkar area near the Lebanon-Syrian northern border. These families have no direct access to the food market, in fact they are caught between Lebanese communities to the south and the Syrian border to the north. Cash Transfer Programming is not a modality that can be accessed by these communities. Therefore, NLRC and Swiss RC will be supporting the distribution of food parcels. The support from NLRC would cover monthly food distributions for 1100 HH for 24 months in Akkar. The support from NLRC further supports ambulance stations and blood transfusion centres run by LRC.
Americas Population Movement This appeal will increase its scope to other affected countries based on the evolution of the situation and new migratory routes, regional coordination and response and preparedness actions; it will also support the current country-level actions and the Movement operations that are not covered by IFRC programmatic funding (such as the Monarch programme). The aim of this appeal is to strengthen and scale-up operational support, coordination, communication, capacity development and preparedness for affected regional countries and to prepare for potential new population movement crises in other countries in the Americas.

3FM Serious Request 2013: Reducing child mortality due to diarrhoea in Burundi The overall objective of the project is to contribute to the reduction of diarrheal disease prevalence among children under five in the provinces of Kayanza and Karusi. The project promotes the availability, access to, and use of water infrastructure for drinking and sanitation, and strengthens the capacity of Burundi's Red Cross to respond to diarrheal outbreaks and protect vulnerable groups. Burundi is one of Africa's poorest countries. Malnutrition is amongst the highest globally. Infants and pregnant women experience high morbidity and mortality rates. These rates are due to HIV/AIDS, acute respiratory infections, malnutrition, malaria, and diarrheal diseases. Diarrheal diseases are the third leading cause of morbidity in Burundi. In the Kayanza and Karusi provinces, around 30% of children under five will visit health facilities due to diarrheal diseases. Reducing deaths related to diarrhoea is carried out through building safe and reliable water, sanitation and hygiene facilities and investing in human capacities. Training to both build and maintain water and sanitation infrastructures, and training community educators, volunteers, and trainers in Participatory Hygiene And Sanitation Transformation (PHAST) form the core of the project. 15,600 households with children under five are targeted in the PHAST process, amounting to 93,600 people. Wider communities will also benefit from improved water, sanitation, and hygiene infrastructures and community programmes. In the Karusi province, the Health District of Nyabikere (specifically, communes, Gitaramuka, Mutumba, Nyabikere and Shombo) is targeted. In the province of Kayanza, Gahombo Sanitary District (specifically, communes, Gahombo, Gatara and Muhanga), and Musema Sanitary District (specifically, communes Rango and Butaganzwa) are targets of the project. These two provinces are amongst the most densely populated in Burundi.
Dutch Surge Support The Dutch Surge Support (DSS) sends Dutch water and sanitation experts to water-related disasters around the world to contribute to better international response and increased knowledge management in water-related disasters. The DSS is an initiative started by the Dutch government, the Netherlands Red Cross, and the Dutch water sector.
Syria - Syria Complex Emergency The Syrian Arab Red Crescent works to respond to the needs of the most vulnerable people affected by the Syrian crisis, including food and non-food aid, health, livelihoods and food security, and building capacity to more effectively respond to the needs of those affected by conflict. Often, Red Cross staff and volunteers operate in risky and life-threatening conditions. Since 2011, the unrest in Syrian has grown, with violence spreading throughout the country. It is estimated that 12.2 million people within Syria need humanitarian assistance, with more than half the pre-crisis population being displaced internally and or as refugees in neighbouring countries. Often, Syrians are displaced multiple times. Four out of five Syrians are living in poverty, and two-thirds live in extreme poverty. Every aspect of life is affected, and there are overloads in basic health care services and decreased access to food and water. The on-going crisis in Syria presents many challenges to those living in its borders, from food, to shelter, to health. 600,000 people have been reached with food distributions, and 175,000 people in 2015 (January-July) have received winterisation support, with 35,000 families receiving items to prepare them for the winter, such as blankets, mats, and mattresses. The Netherlands Red Cross contributes to efforts with food parcels, winterisation items, and hygiene kits. 106,000 people have accessed improved water. Those in need of medical care are supported by mobile health units and health points in clinics, the latter of which are critical for rural areas. During the first four months of 2015, the Syrian Arab Red Crescent facilities provided treatment and consultations to 187,000 people. This project assists those affected by the on-going crisis in Syria. This project operates throughout the country, having current activities in the following governorates: Quneitra, Rural Damascus: Homs, Al-Hasakeh, Idleb, Hama, and Tartous.

IFRC - Strengthening institutional Disaster Preparedness and community level Epidemic Preparedness in Western Region, Uganda The Action will strengthen the capacities of District Disaster Management Committees, District Task Forces and their local structures to establish well-functioning multi-hazard preparedness and response systems to ensure Early Warning and Early Action. There is a clear need to strengthen DRM in Uganda to address the multiplicity of crises including epidemics, new refugee influxes and natural hazards. The most common and frequent hazards include floods, landslides, drought, earthquakes,
hailstorms and windstorms. Since 2017, Uganda has experienced an influx of refugees from South Sudan and DRC and is now hosting 1,4 million refugees. In the coming time UNHCR predicts a large influx of refugees into the country. The scale of the refugee crisis continues to overwhelm national and local capacities. Active cross border movement combined with porous borders increases the risk of importation of epidemics (e.g. EVD). Besides, communities are often affected by Cholera, Typhoid Fever, Malaria and Diarrhoea. The COVID-19 global pandemic is widespread and is strongly impacting
the health system, economy, livelihoods and protection. 1. Enhance district level capacities by providing support in the development and operationalization of multi-hazard district contingency plans, improving EW systems and enhancing surge capacity.
2. Integrate Forecast-based Action into DCPs
3. Strengthen community-level epidemic preparedness by enhancing surveillance and referral systems to ensure early detection and response regarding diseases / events of public health concern.
4. Advocate for a National Disaster Preparedness and Management Law that incorporates anticipatory funding principles.
5. Ensure protection mainstreaming in all elements by enhancing responders' capacity on protection and accountability towards the population and the adaptation of protection into EW/EA mechanism. 11,864 local populations in the area. 
5,000  displaced people The Action targets distrits that are exposed to multiple hazards and are accepting new refugees, or are transit areas:

Rwanda Floods On 3rd March 2018, at around 16:00 local time, Rubavu District, located in the Western Province of Rwanda, experienced heavy rains, which resulted in flooding along Sebeya River and other areas where people live on steep hills were affected by landslides due to heavy rains. The affected areas are in four sectors of Rubavu, namely Nyundo, Nyakiliba, Rugerero and Kanama. In fact, the flooding resulted more from increased rainfall upstream than in the affected areas. There were no predictable signs of flooding downstream.
The main aim of the DREF is to ensure flood-affected population’s immediate needs are met through the provision of essential emergency relief, shelter items, hygiene promotion assistance, targeting a total number of 4,750 people (950 households) whose items/properties were destroyed. Due to flooding, and according to the data gathered during joint rapid and detailed assessments conducted by RRCS, volunteers and local authorities, around 5,000 households (25,000 people) from 7 cells of the four sectors were affected by the floods, of which 4,750 people from 950 households were directly affected. These 950 Homeless families are being accommodated in the nearby communities after their homes were either destroyed or damaged by flowing waters and mud debris. Immediately, the flash floods caused 5 severe injuries, 141.5 hectares of crops flooded (including plantations of beans, potatoes, maize and tea), 643 livestock washed away, 10 bridges destroyed, 1 school affected, and students’ school materials washed away. At onset, 28 houses were destroyed. The NS will support the flood affected through the provision of essential emergency relief, shelter items, hygiene promotion assistance. Support also includes food, WASH and non-food items. Based on the rapid and detailed joint assessment results, the directly affected population by the disaster is 950 households (approx. 4,750 people) out of an overall 5,000 households affected households. The teams composed of the volunteers and the local authorities visited the affected communities and assessed the real situation of the houses and household items. In some houses, flooding water has entered houses at lesser extent while for others, much water and debris have caused bigger losses and even destroyed houses. It is against these criteria that the assessment and beneficiary classification was made. In addition to these criteria, targeting will prioritize families with elderly persons, female headed households, chronically ill people and large families amongst others.

Well prepared Red Cross/Red Crescent societies for disaster response: Global The goal of the programme is to reduce the impact of disasters through improving the response preparedness and capacities of six national Red Cross and Red Crescent societies and the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies: improving the functioning of national and international response mechanisms, strengthening (human) disaster-management capacity and contingency plans. This subactivity provides for general support from NLRC.
Ethiopia - Poulation Movement Ethiopia has been experiencing a wide spread internal population displacement since mid of 2018. Displacements are attributed to a combination of factors including, religious conflicts, inter-ethnic violence as well as border and boundary disagreements between ethnic groups in Ethiopia. One of the biggest IDP camp in Somali Region, Qoloji, is occupied by at least 80,000 ethnic Somalis fleeing from Oromia. 62,000 IDPs were forced to flee from Babile town following conflicts between Muslim and orthodox Christians in Jijiga. According to the DTM in addition to conflict related displacements at least 508,723 people are said to have been displaced due to climate induced factors, particularly drought.
3FM Serious Request 2012: Reducing infant mortality in Ivory Coast The purpose of this project is to reduce infant and mother morality rates in the department of Blolequin. Blolequin is a department in Ivory Coast that faces high infant mortality rates and around 95,000 people live beyond five kilometres from health facilities, housing some of the country's most vulnerable populations whose lives were greatly affected by 2002's civil war. The war resulted in a worsening of already precarious and impoverished situations in terms of not only increased infant mortality rates, but weakening health infrastructures, causing increased food insecurity, and pushing chronic malnutrition rates above 38% in the western part of the country, where Blolequin is located. Infants and mothers' survival is ensured through improving maternal and infant health knowledge and practices in targeted communities on issues such as immunisation, malnutrition, infectious diseases, child illnesses and the like, and increasing the use of maternal and infant health services in targeted communities, specifically focusing on areas that lack access to health services. This is a community-based approach that includes training volunteers on health issues, assisting clubs for mothers, and supporting local primary health care services. The project directly targets 12,850 infants, pregnant women, breastfeeding women, and women of childbearing age. Located in the forested area of the Blolequin department of Ivory Coast, bordering Liberia, the project focuses on health in 13 villages in and around the towns of Blolequin, Doke, and Diboke.
2023 - SHO Syria Earthquake - 2nd (25%) Through this Emergency Appeal, the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC) together with the partner national societies aim to support the Syrian Arab Red Crescent Society in the response to this Syria Earthquake. On the 6th of February at close to 4:17 am, a 7.8 degrees magnitude earthquake struck southern Turkey near Syria’s northern border. The US Geological Survey said the earthquake was centered about 33 km (20 miles) from Gaziantep, a major city and provincial capital. Tremors were felt as far away as Lebanon, Greece, Palestine and the island of Cyprus. Another big earthquake was felt on the same day at around 1:24 pm local time, largely in the same affected areas. The strategy of the IFRC response will be to contribute to support 300,000 affected people in the affected areas for a period of 11 months. Targeting will prioritize the most vulnerable groups such as separated families, female-headed households, children, people with disabilities and the elderly among other groups of special needs. 300,000 affected people in the affected areas for a period of 11 months. Targeting will prioritize the most vulnerable groups such as separated families, female-headed households, children, people with disabilities and the elderly among other groups of special needs.

Well prepared Red Cross/Red Crescent societies for disaster response: Mali This project supports the Mali Red Cross to enhance their emergency response capacity in selected regions. Mali is vulnerable to both drought and floods, caused by the country’s dry tropical climate with highly variable alternating dry and rainy periods and the passing through of two of Africa’s major rivers. Other hazards are locust invasions, epidemics, bush fire and population movement due to conflict in the North of the country. Socio-economic and environmental factors such as people’s dependence of rain-fed agriculture, poverty (Mali ranks 176 out of 187 on the Human Development Index of 2013e), settlement in flood risk areas and environmental degradation further aggravate the impact of disasters. While data related to casualties linked to disasters are not available, the government of Mali estimated that over the last 30 years more than three million people have been affected. Building on the results and lessons learned from the Response Preparedness programme 2012-2015 (RP-I) the Response Preparedness programme 2016-2019 (RP-II) aims at achieving a better prepared response mechanism for disasters for Mali. RP-II aims at 1. Functioning contingency plans  for selected areas. 2. Sufficient DM staff and volunteers are trained and available for response. 3. Adequate response infrastructure. 4. strong network to provide and improve its emergency response. 5. Adopted innovative response mechanisms (eg. FbF, CTP). 6. sufficient capacity built to perform core functions in emergency response. The program being a capacity building on Response and Preparedness, the beneficiaries will be the MRCS itself (recipient of capacity building trainings) and the population of Mali affected by disasters in three southern regions of Mali. Most activities are national - however, a specific focus will be paid to Mopti and Kayes region.

HIV prevention and support of vulnerable groups in Ethiopia The purpose of the project is to contribute to the reduction of the spread of HIV and mitigate its impact among people living with HIV, orphans and vulnerable children, and youth, to increase safe HIV prevention practices among the Most at High Risk Population, and to increase access to community based HIV/AIDS home based care/ support services for people living with HIV. Although the HIV epidemic in Ethiopia is stabilising, the changes are not sufficient, due to the large number of infected people, as well as to the low levels of knowledge about HIV and a high prevalence of unprotected sex through multiple partners and intergenerational transactional sex. Orphans and other children affected by HIV are increasingly taken out of school and drawn into adult responsibilities, and therefore deprived of a chance for a full, healthy, and productive life. Furthermore, the children are also more exposed to risks such as STIs, HIV, child prostitution and early marriages. The Red Cross will support and facilitate peer education, community conversations, and community- and self-support groups against stigma, provide care and support for orphans and vulnerable children, and for people living with HIV, provide livelihood and food support for people living with HIV, strengthen the visibility and the HIV response capacity of the Ethiopian Red Cross Society. This project targets orphans and vulnerable children (OVC), people living with HIV (PLHIV), youth, commercial sex workers (CSW), and prisoners. Sidama, Wolayita, Gamo Gofa and South West Shoa. The South West Shoa zone falls under Oromia region, while the other three are situated in the Southern Nation Nationalities People Region (SNNPR). A total of nine districts will be targeted during the project period.
