Gujji drought response Drought response in Gujji, Ethiopia Ethiopia is experiencing severe drought impact resulted from the failure of two to three consecutive rainfalls in 2021. The affected regions include the southern pastoral areas of Oromia (especially Borena and Gujji zone), Somali (Afder,Dawa and Liben zones) and SNNP regions. The drought  is a key driver of increased food insecurity in the country. The drought has affected the livelihood of an estimated four million people in the country. Due to the failed rains, water sources and pasture lands are depleted, vegetation conditions are poor, livestock deaths are unusually high (estimated at 170,000-220,000 livestock deaths), food production is declining, and livelihood losses are increasing in the affected regions. In southern part of Oromia for example, 70% of the harvest was lost in 2021.The drought is also displacing communities, as they are forced to find pasture and water for their livestock. In highly affected pastural communities, children drop out of school as families are forced to move with their cattle. Guji Zone is widely affected by climate induced natural hazards and conflict. The Poor performance of last year Ganna/Belg rain and failure of Hagaya/Meher rain has affected the pastoralist districts/woredas and there is serious shortage of pasture, food and water for both human and livestock. A preharvest assessment conducted in 14 woredas by the Zonal Disaster Risk Management and Food Security Office shows that 79% losses in production for highland districts and increased number of livelihood deaths for low-land districts.  The current drought has severely affected nine woredas that are agro-pastoralist. The overall goal of this project is to save lives, protect livelihoods and promote the early recovery of communities affected by the climate induced drought in Gujji zone. The key interventions include livelihood support through cash assistance, WASH and nutrition. Communities in Gujji Gujji, Ethiopia

Partners for Resilience: Uganda The project aims to reduce the impact of natural hazards on vulnerable community members. It increases the resilience of communities to disasters, climate change and environmental degradation. The project also increases the capacity of civil society organisations (CSO's) to cope with these natural hazards. In Uganda, climate change and natural resource degradation are responsible for increasingly frequent natural hazards, including drought, floods and landslides. When the rains come, they are short and torrential, leading to widespread flooding and destruction of property and infrastructure. Unfortunately, there is increased variability of precipitation expected in Uganda which results in the contamination of drinking water with human waste and increases the occurence of diarrheal and vector-borne diseases. The project involves the implementation of activities that will train the community on disaster risk reduction, climate change adaptation, and environmental degradation. The capacities of the CSO's are also built, and in turn they will be able to support communities in their advocacy with local government in support of risk reduction plans. Consequently, allowing for the restoration of the ecosystems, protecting, strengthening and diversifying the livelihoods dependent on it. The target group are communities who are critically dependent on natural resources to sustain their livelihoods. These are subsistence farmers with few options for alternative livelihoods and include fishermen, agro-pastoralists and farmers who rely on livestock rearing. The project is organized by the 'Partners For Resilience', which The Netherlands Red Cross is a member of. The project focuses on communities in three areas in Northern and North Eastern Uganda. The places are Lira, Apac, Karamoja region, Acholi and Teso

Partners for Resilience: Mali The Strategic Partnership of Partners for Resilience (PfR) is aimed at promoting and improving (attention for) Integrated Risk Management (IRM) in policies, investments and practices of key stakeholders (governments, private sector, institutions and others). The ultimate aim is to improve resilience of vulnerable communities who are confronted with disaster risks though better laws and regulations, IRM-proof investments, and enhanced practices that take better account of their potential to reduce risks. This project focuses on improving resilience in vulnerable communities in Mali. The project in Mali is under the lead of Wetlands International, in cooperation with the organisations Mali Red Cross, Netherlands Red Cross, Red Cross Climate Centre, and Care Mali. People world-wide live in disaster-prone areas. Disasters damage the eco-systems they live in and upon which their livelihoods depend. Their vulnerability to disasters is aggravated by climate change, which increases the frequency, scale and unpredictability of disasters. Eco-systems, if protected and managed well, can play an important role in mitigating the impact of disasters (holding more excess water, sheltering form storms). Partners for Resilience strengthens community resilience by working with civil society organisations on reducing risks and strengthening livelihoods of vulnerable communities, with specific attention for marginalized groups and women. The Integrated Risk Management (IRM) approach bridges time- and spatial scales. It integrates the urgent attention needed for changing risks due to changes in hazards, exposure and vulnerability. IRM includes a specific focus on ecosystem degradation, locally and in the wider landscape, as well as changes in hazards due to climate change (in relation to current risks, nearterm changes and longer-term shifts in climate patterns). IRM thus integrates elements from disaster risk reduction (DRR), climate change adaptation (CCA) and ecosystem management and restoration (EMR). Actions relate to different actors. Four groups are distinguished: Communities, Civil Society organisations (Red Cross, plus PfR partners, other CSOs, organised communities), Government (at various levels), and the private sector. Beneficiaries of the programme are vulnerable communities in disaster-prone conditions. This project focuses on vulnerable communities in Mali. General remarks PfR Mali partners work together on all trajectories in the Inner Niger Delta, the Sourou/ Volta River and at national level. In 2018 the partners are starting up trajectories/activities in the Senegal River Basin.
Tanzania - Floods Dar Es Salaam The floods in Dar es Salaam have caused displacement, injuries, the death of two children, destruction of water &
sanitation facilities as well as livelihood assets and increased prevalence and risks of vector transmitted, and water
borne diseases. As a direct effect of the ongoing floods, a total number of 21 confirmed Cholera cases were reported

Mongolia: Cold wave 2018 The overall objective is to meet the essential needs of the 2,500 most vulnerable herder households (approximately 9,000 people10) who are affected by severe winter through provision of emergency relief items and/or small amounts of cash. This operation is expected to cover the most essential needs of 1,000 herder households for 40 days with food and animal care kit and the needs of 1,500 herder households for one month with cash support. Mongolia has suffered from severe winter conditions known as Dzud since the last two winters. The extremely harsh
winter that continued after the drought in summer has depleted the herders’ reserves of hay and fodder. Continuous
harsh conditions have put at risk millions of livestock, which are the only source of food, transport and income for almost
half of the Mongolian population. As herders experienced two consecutive droughts throughout the country followed by
severe winters, it did not allow herders enough recovery time to be prepared for this winter. Food, seeds and plants and cash disbursements - Number of people to be assisted: 2,500 herder households (approx. 9,000 people)
- Total number of people affected: 52,800 herder households Out of the 20 provinces and one city that are facing extreme winter situation, the DREF operation will target seven of
the most affected provinces. This DREF will target following soums in seven provinces (areas not reached through FbF programme, FAO and PIN):

The ultimate aim is to improve resilience of vulnerable communities who are confronted with disaster risks though better laws and regulations, IRM-proof investments (including screening), and enhanced practices that take better account of their potential to reduce risks. This project focuses on improving resilience in communities in Haiti. People world-wide live in disaster-prone areas. Disasters damage the eco-systems they live in and upon which their livelihoods depend.

Yemen conflict 2015 This appeal is to support ICRS and Yemeni Red Crescent Society in assistence to civil population in Yemen. The situation in Jemen has been instabel since 2011, but in 2014 and 2015 circumstances worstened due to militar violence. There is no political solution to problem yet en ICRC warned for the humanitarian implications of the civil war. UN estimates that approximately 80% of population (around 25 million people) have no acces to clean drinking water, hygiene or medical facilities. Another 12 million people risk famine. An estimated 4,000 people died because of the conflict. The ICRC works together with HRCS to upscale assistence for vulnerable people. Focus is on shelter, medical services, safe drinking water and family-link service. Because of famine, civilian population is vulnerable. Supply of food is scarce and local prices rise. The funds in the projects are especially directed towards the provision of food. Except for MSF and the UN no other humanitarian organisation is active in Yemen. HRCS has an available network of 600 active volunteers. The ICRC has 250 local employees deployed, with an additional 45 international staff. The ICRC has offices in Sana’a, Sa’ada, Aden and rnatTaiz.
Improving the Health of South Sudanese Refugee Communities in Northern Uganda Reduce common preventable health and water related illnesses in Rhino Settlement in Uganda through implementation of an integrated CBHFA-PHAST program including Behavior Change Communication, Health and Hygiene Promotion. Due to its proximity to three major humanitarian emergencies in South Sudan, Burundi, and the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), its progressive refugee hosting and settlement policies, and the ease of border crossings, Uganda has received a large number of refugees over the past 3 years. The continued arrival of refugees has placed added pressure on the limited resources. The refugees in Rhino Camp are predominantly women and children. The increased influx of refugees has also put a strain on the health system. The three most severe challenges to accessing health care that were reported by refugee households residing in the neighborhoods covered by the Uganda joint multi-sector needs assessment included “high cost of health care” (65%), “no treatment available for the medical issue at this facility” (39%), and “health facility is too far away” (33%). As CBHFA approach aims at empowering the communities and their volunteers to take charge of their health, key CBHFA activities will continue to be conducted including maternal and child health with main emphasis on safe water, hygiene and sanitation (WASH), Acute Respiratory Infections (ARIs), Antenatal care (ANC) ,immunization, HIV/AIDS prevention, malaria prevention and referral, acute diarrhea home management, epidemic control and surveillance with immediate referral to the health facilities. The project is targeting a total of 3000 households with health and hygiene promotion and 1000 households with sanitation facilities. This project plans on targeting 20 villages – 10 villages from Zones IV and V of Rhino Camp (comprising majority of recent refugee influx) and 10 villages in KamKam (host communities).
Philippines typhoon Haiyan 2013: helping affected communities to rebuild their livelihoods Typhoon Haiyan (locally known as Yolanda) made its landfall on November 8th, hitting the entire area of Visayas in Philippines. The typhoon triggered big waves and gale force winds that resulted in thousands of houses damaged or totally destroyed. Due to the wind effect of the typhoon, more than 40,000 houses have been completely damaged. This assistence programme is a cooperation with American Red Cross Society.
