Climate Proof and Eco-smart DRR Though Karamoja region in Uganda has become more peaceful and stable, drought, floods, animal and human diseases continue to threaten the livelihoods in Nakapiripirit and Napak districts. With support of CORDAID, ECO Uganda is implementing smart solutions for Disaster Risk Reduction, including climate adaption and improved ecosystem management. Cordaid with its partner ECO Uganda aims to contribute to increased resilience to climate-induced shocks of the target communities. Increased resilience will reduce the impact of hazards on their livelihoods. The communities will plan for and implement mitigation and preventive measures towards drought and floods. Integrated disaster risk reduction interventions include strengthening farming practices, credit and saving, alternative livelihoods and animal health. These efforts will be coupled with an early warning system and enforcement of local regulation for sustainable use of environment The project will target 25 communities in Nabilatuk and Lolachat sub-counties of Nakapiripirit district and Iriir sub-county of Napak district in Karamoja sub-region, north-east Uganda. This number includes 4 new communities to replicate and expand the best-practices of the earlier project phase 2012-2015. Total number of direct beneficiaries is 10,040. An additional 5600 people will benefit from the project indirectly

Life-saving ES&NFI assistance in line with CERF spring contingency plan The humanitarian situation continues to deteriorate in Afghanistan. This is caused by on-going fighting between ISIS/ Taleban and Afghan Forces. 
One of the provinces severely affected by the fighting and ISIS clearance operations is Nangarhar province. Most of the districts in Nangarhar were under the control of ISIS or either Taliban where humanitarian and development actors were not allowed to operate since 2014. Because of unavailability of basic services in these (formerly) ISIS/Taliban controlled areas, the situation deteriorated and people lost access to basic services including access to basic WASH services. In 2019 ISIS were defeated and their stronghold Achin district was cleared by the Afghan security forces. The security forces extended the cleanup operation to Speen Ghar, Nazyan, Deh Balah and Pachir-u-Agam districts. These districts were also cleared and became accessible by the aid agencies.
Cordaid started working in a formerly ISIS held areas last year, providing food and WASH assistance in Achin where nobody received any assistance since 2014. Cordaid together with RRAA conducted an assessment in other recently cleared districts in Nangarhar during January 2021 and found the urgent WASH needs in Speen Ghar, Nazyan, Deh Balah and Pachir-u-Agam districts. To improve the health and socioeconomic well-being of communities by reducing the 
incidence of water- and sanitation-related diseases through sustainable safe water supply, sanitation, and good hygiene practices. Host communities
Emergency Support Syria 2015: Field-kitchen Damascus Displaced families either sheltered in public buildings or living in overcrowded homes of extended family or 
friends are deeply traumatized after 3 years of war and encounter daily constraints in accessing basic goods and 
services. With the increase of violence, and extreme deterioration of the economic and humanitarian situation, 
Local residents and IDPs in and around Damascus are more and more dependent on external support. It is clear 
from repeatedly reported information that access to food is the primary concern and the main constraint is lack 
of income. With decreasing or no purchasing power, households are resorting to extreme coping strategies in 
order to meet basic needs. The low rainfall of the previous season and resulting reduction in agricultural 
production may exacerbate this. JRS will serve 5,000 daily meals in the field-kitchen of Sahnaya, to respond to 
the food security needs of 4,250 IDPs and 750 affected members of the local community in Rural Damascus. 
The project aims at saving lives by providing a nutritious meal 6 days a week. Special attention is paid to 
children, and pregnant and lactating women.As the kitchen is closed for 1 day a week, families are receiving 
‘dry’ and tinned food during the meal distribution on day 6. 
Overall objective: To ensure that IDPs and host communities in Rural Damascus satisfy their most urgent 
nutritional needs. 
Specific objective: 5,000 war affected persons in Rural Damascus (IDP or host communities) satisfied their most 
urgent nutritional needs by getting access to hot meals The project aims at saving lives by providing a nutritious meal 6 days a week. Syrian IDPs and local host community
MiN 2018 WASH and conditional cash for livelihoods in South Sudan Cordaid South Sudan has to upgrade the equipment and skills in provision of safe water supply to the most vulnerable. In acute emergencies (e.g. massive IDP movements), emergency water supply units like Village Drill are required to provide timely support. For host communities that have hosted IDPs for longer period, many of them have boreholes beyond repairing, and a rig for drilling boreholes is required. We have visited discussed with IOM on the use of Village Drill in Unity which found that the boreholes done by Village Drill are efficient and effective. We have also consulted Dorcas who has a rig for drilling boreholes in Wau and it is feasible for NGOs to operate. It is more cost-effective in the long run. 

As there are more IDP movement in Upper Nile, one VillageDrill system is requested to be procured and preposition in our Malakal office (Upper Nile). In places like Guit of Unity, there are only 2-3 functional boreholes for the whole county and the prominent needs all voices is to have new boreholes to survive. One rig is requested to be procured and preposition in our Bentiu office (Unity), which can then serve 3-4 nearby counties including Guit. We talked with WASH cluster and NGOs (Dorcas) running rig to confirm this is feasible. Training for staff, and drilling on operations will be conducted before deployment. 

Without such equipment, we are considered by cluster with similar capacity as national NGOs (e.g. UNIDO can do what we are doing - borehole rehabilitation), and we could not demonstrate our capacity to intervene in where there are outstanding needs in WASH. 

vouchers to improve their food security. Cash grant for Livelihoods and Food vouchers: This project plans to assist 600HHs who were the FS beneficiaries of 2017 in Wau and Upper Nile (under SHO & SSJR3) to move from emergency phase to recovery by restoring their livelihood capacities or having food consumption improved. Some of these 600 beneficiary households can become more self-reliant and do not need to rely on external assistance on food. Some of those 600 households who do not have the capacity to take up cash grant to develop their livelihoods at this stage, they will be provided with food vouchers to improve their food security.

Agribusiness Innovations Iraq Almost two decades after the 2003 war, Iraq remains caught in a fragility trap, facing increasing political instability and 
growing social unrest. Amid a multitude of crises, including an oil price shock and the COVID-19 pandemic, Iraq had 
its worst annual growth performance in 2020 since the fall of Saddam Hussein. The economy has faced serious prob-lems, including a high rate of unemployment; a seriously deteriorated entrepreneurial landscape; and a private sector 
inexperienced in modern market practices. 
Amidst Iraq’s economic meltdown, agri-food can play a pivotal role in turning the economy around and putting it back 
on a sustainable growth track. While economic reforms, government restructuring, and high-level corporate invest-ments can help stimulate the economy, agri-food is a low hanging fruit: it can attract much-needed private sector 
investment at a time of government cash crunch and create jobs quickly, as the country struggles with youth dissatis-faction and almost daily protests.
To tackle the challenges described above the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development 
(BMZ) has commissioned GIZ’s Private Sector Development & Employment Promotion (PSD) Project in Iraq, co-funded by the European Union (EU), to support the government’s efforts of creating conditions for a growth-oriented 
business and investment climate in Iraq. Under this broad umbrella, GIZ has announced a project titled, “Knowledge 
transfer for Agribusiness Innovations, Training of Innovation Coaches, International Technology Networking and Cre-ation of Business Linkages.” It has three focus areas; International knowledge and technology transfer, Training of 
Innovation Coaches (ToIC), and support to startups by creating business linkages; The project aims to attract 25 professionals to be innovation pioneers in the agriculture sector in Iraq, both from academic and private sector backgrounds, from six targeted provinces (Baghdad, Basra, Ninewa, Diyala, Diwaniyah, and Erbil), and engage them in an extensive training program that is tailored to the needs of this sector in Iraq, focused on modern concepts and utilization of technology in establishing new agribusiness and sustaining existing agripreneurial MSMEs in Iraq.

Provision of Essential Health Services (PEHS) UNICEF has published a Call for Expression of Interest to identify eligible Civil Society Organizations for prospective partnership with UNICEF South Sudan. Eligible Civil Society Organizations (CSOs) or Consortium of CSOs are invited to submit proposals for partnerships between UNICEF and qualified implementing partners (CSOs/Consortium of CSOs) to implement the PEHS (Provision of Essential Health Services Project) across 10 geographically distinct lots in the former states known as Jonglei and Upper Nile. Applications can be submitted as an individual entity, or in a consortium/partnership. Applicants are able to bid for no more than 2 Lots and will be required to demonstrate in their technical and management responses that the organization or consortium has the required technical, financial and management capacity to implement multiple Lot contracts.

This is another phase of Rapid result Health project (RRHP) funded by world bank through UNICEF where Cordaid has been implementing in Fashoda and Manyo. In this round, the call emphasizes partnership/Consortia advisable with the National NGO (not mandatory) so as the INGO can build the capacity of NNGO. Cordaid current present on ground implementing similar project and its plan to take a lead in consortia with NNGO for 2 lots will place Cordaid to better compete.

Currently, Upper Nile and Jonglei states are accessible and calm security wise. However, since the two states experienced heavy conflict with destruction and disruption that weakened the health system and structures; the budget allocation may not be adequate to restore complete health system and structure in the lots intended. The objective of the PEHSP project is to deliver low cost, high impact essential health services to about 1.8 million of the total population living in the former Upper Nile and Jonglei States. This particular project will focus on Fashoda and Manyo Counties and will target a catchment population of 100, 937 inhabitants.
