Water the Heart of Climate Action in South Sudan: Accelerating and scaling up water action to reduce risks and increase climate resilience This project addresses climate change and water related risks in Uganda around 5 main technical focus areas:
1. Water-related risk knowledge and governance
2. Observations, monitoring and forecasting of weather and water-related hazards
3. Water specific early warning systems dissemination and communication
4. Anticipatory Action and Locally Led Adaptation and
5. Crosscutting activities Exceptionally severe floods in 2019 and subsequent years of high rainfall were a stark reminder of the country’s vulnerability to natural hazards. By the end of 2022, floods had affected 1.1 million across 39 counties. More frequent and extreme flooding is expected in many parts of the country. Even more so, due to changing climatic conditions, South Sudan has been warming at a rate that is two and a half times greater than the global average air temperature change (0.4°C per decade), putting additional pressure on the already scarce water resources and the agricultural sector on which most of the population depends. While there have been high investments in DRR and water management in South Sudan, there is still a significant amount of progress to be made in integrating hazard, exposure, vulnerability and climate data to harness these investments in reducing disaster risks at national and local level. The current climate change and water crisis in Africa are inextricably linked together and require systemic changes. This project drives that change using an integrated climate and water approach to deal with increasing exposure to water related risks, bringing together different disciplines in the water, climate and disaster management sectors. It fosters  collaboration of global, national and local partners that traditionally have been working separately around the 5 broad technical focus areas specified above. Communities most at risk for climate change and water-related crises In drougth and flood prone areas of South Sudan, located Kapoeta and Jonglei States
ARC - 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:

Emergency support to Syrian refugees and vulnerable host communities in Northern Lebanon Supporting Syrian refugees and vulnerable host communities in Akkar district in North Lebanon (2020-2021) Lebanon hosts the highest number of refugees per capita in the world, causing major socio-economic challenges and further aggravating pre-existing development constraints in the country. With the crisis in its 9th year, tensions between Lebanese host communities and Syrian refugees are rising. As long as the situation in Syria remains unstable, little refugees choose to return, while in Lebanon they are facing enormous challenges to meet their basic survival needs, partly due to lack of international support .

The Vulnerability Assessment of Syrian Refugees in Lebanon (VASyR) 2018 , published beginning of this year by UNHCR, UNICEF and UNWFP, provides the following figures: 
-	51% of Syrian refugees have expenditures totaling less than the Survival Minimum Expenditure Basket (SMEB) of US$ 2.90 per person per day, unable to meet survival needs of food, health and shelter;
-	69% of total refugee households are living below the poverty line;
-	34% are severely food insecure.

Faced with these living conditions and Lebanon’s weak infrastructure and public services, the chances of vulnerable Syrian refugee and Lebanese host communities meeting their social, economic and medical needs continue to diminish. People are pushed to incorporate negative coping mechanisms in order to provide basic needs for their families (like reducing adult food intake in order to provide more food for children, child marriage, selling in-kind assistance in order to pay health care services). Overall Operational objective:
To provide Syrian refugees and vulnerable host communities in Akkar with access to life-saving emergency medical services, and support Syrian refugee households in Akkar with strengthening their livelihoods through the provision of basic assistance in the form of cash and food, and access to renewable energy.

In this protracted crisis situation, this project aims to support the Lebanese Red Cross with three key interventions: 
1.	Building on the outcomes of the CTP feasibility assessment that is being done under the current Chronic crisis project, we will continue to ensure that vulnerable refugee households in Akkar are able to meet their basic needs through the provision of both food and cash based assistance;
2.	In order to ensure that Syrian refugees and host communities in Akkar have access to pre-hospital emergency medical care, we will support LRCS in running one EMS station (Wadi Khaled) and one Blood Transfusion Services center (Halba);
3.	To increase the self-reliance of Syrian refugee families, we will provide them with compact renewable energy solutions and will also implement these solutions in LRCS’s main operational premises in Akkar, increasing the sustainability of LRCS’s life-saving services.

Partners for Resilience: Philippines 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. The Philippines is a nation where the poorest communities are extremely vulnerable to natural hazards exacerbated by climate change and natural resource degradation. In the span of a year, they experience abnormally dry conditions except during the wet peroid. This results in decrease in agricultural production, extreme heat and water shortages, while in the wet period the situation is inverse and floods increase. Exacerbating these conditions is the rapid decrease in the natural resources. changes in rain patters and the coasts lines exposure to high risk tidal surges. To strengthen the resilience of communities in the face of hazards and climate change the programme will introduce principles and techniques for disaster risk reduction, climate change adaptation and ecosystem management and restoration will be at various levels in communities, including in the development programs of civil organizations and in policy dialogue of government institutions. In the rural areas, the groups most at risk are indifenous people, disher folk and poor rural farmers who depend on ecosystem services and have climate and natural resources dependent livelihoods. In the urban setting, those living in slum areas, near the river banks and floodways will be targeted. Women, elderly, children and people with disablities are most at risk. The project is organized by the 'Partners For Resilience', which The Netherlands Red Cross is a member of. In the rural areas, the targret groups live in Agusan del Sur, Agusan den Norte, Surigao del Sur and Surigao del Norte. In the urban setting they live in Calcoon City, Malabon, Navotas, Valenzuela, Quezon City, Marikina, Pasig, Patersos, Taguig and Muntinlupa City.
Partners for Resilience: policy dialogue on integrated risk management 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. 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.

Nepal eartquake 2015 The responses to the devastation caused by the earthquakes focuses on emergency health and care, emergency shelter and settlements, livelihoods, restoring family links, safe and dignified burials, community preparedness and risk reduction, and building the Nepal Red Cross Society’s institutional preparedness and capacity development. On 25 April 2015, a 7.9 magnitude earthquake hit Nepal, in an area between Kathmandu and Pokhara. Hundreds of aftershocks were registered. The government of Nepal declared a state of emergency on 27 April. On 12 May, a 7.3 magnitude earthquake hit 76 km northeast of Kathmandu, causing additional death, destruction of infrastructure and homes. 57 districts were affected, with 14 having severe damage. Responding to the needs of those affected by the earthquakes in Nepal included distribution of food items, deploying sanitation units, providing families with unconditional cash grants, emergency shelter, and household items. Some homes that underwent severe damages will be rebuilt, and cash grants and training opportunities are provided for livelihood support. To help alleviate some of the health risks in the aftermath of the earthquakes, emergency response units and rapid deployment hospitals were deployed to fill in the gaps left after health facilities were damaged. This project targets 700,000 people, including 140,000 families, affected by the 25 April and 12 May 2015 earthquakes. Measures will also be put in place to identify and address aspects that increase vulnerabilities among specific groups such as women, girls, minorities, and people with disabilities. This project takes place in areas affected by the earthquakes.
