Scale-up of CCCM activities to avert rainy season flooding and enhance live-saving assistance to new arrivals and IDPs in 2 Reception Centers, 1 IDP camp and 1 Out-of-camp site in Monguno, Ngala and Banki, Borno State, Northeast Nigeria INTERSOS proposes a community centred CCCM response for crisis affected vulnerable people who are currently experiencing flooding due to an ongoing heavy rainy fall, a situation that further escalates the suffering and heightens vulnerability among the population. INTERSOS is targeting the 2 Reception Centers-RCs (Monguno and Ngala) and Waterboard camp in Monguno, which are among the locations that are experiencing the worst form of flooding this year. INTERSOS is already implementing CCCM and other programmes in the targeted locations. In these proposed locations, flooding has forced over 5,000 IDPs and host population out of their homes, destroyed their food and perishable non-food items, and moreover exposed them to protection concerns and waterborne diseases while COVID-19 pandemic remains unabated and monkey pox slowly spreading. INTERSOS intervention under this project focuses on the Sector’s identified Priority One (Rainy Season Flood Response) with an overall objective: to provide time critical life-saving humanitarian response linked to rainy season flooding, while specifically targeting the CCCM Objective: to provide essential services to mitigate the negative impact of flooding in camp-like settings in 2 Reception Centers-RCs (Monguno and Ngala) and Waterboard camp in Monguno, that will reach a total of 29,225 beneficiaries of which IDPs constitute 97% in the 2 target intervention LGAs. To avoid duplication, INTERSOS and UNHCR held a bilateral meeting and agreed on areas and activities of implementation prior to submission of our respective proposals for this NHF 2022 Reserve Allocation Strategy (RAS). As agreed, INTERSOS will implement its NHF RAS project in the 2 Reception Centers (Monguno and Ngala) and 1 Camp (Waterboard). UNHCR will implement its activities in the following areas: Fulatari, GSSSS, Ngurno, Kuya and Stadium camps. This effort ensured no duplication between our respective intervention locations. In INTERSOS targeted sites, INTERSOS activities will include Reception center management – for new arrivals linked to flood response, Site facilitation services for flood risk reduction and site improvement repairs, Community Engagement for community disaster first responder preparedness, Site maintenance/camp decongestion linked to flooding damage and Registration/Out of camp information services for flood affected populations. The assistance provided will be free of charge, and free from all forms of discrimination while ensuring accountability to the affected population. This includes coordinating with partners to deliver a comprehensive principled assistance for at least 4,050 individuals (new arrivals) in Monguno and Reception RCs, where INTERSOS projects 675 new arriving individuals each month based on internal RCs data over the past 3 months. INTERSOS has been the CCCM lead in the locations targeted for this intervention over the past three years and will build on its experiences and solid field presence in these locations to ensure effective coordination of humanitarian response, coordinated assessments and information management. While recognizing the COVID-19 pandemic and prevalence of Monkey pox, INTERSOS will mainstream Covid-19 and Monkey pox RCCE in its response. Within same locations targeted, INTERSOS will continue coordinated protection monitoring and assessment, and timely sharing of information to address special needs of children, adolescents, women, elderly, and persons living with disabilities (PLWDs). Moreover, INTERSOS will enhance referral pathways and its existing Complaint and Feedback Mechanism to ensure accountable service delivery and better orient services to the affected population. Through an effective UN-led coordination mechanism to which INTERSOS is an active participant, INTERSOS will leverage its experience and lessons learned to link its services with ongoing humanitarian interventions, including health, nutrition, etc. to address multiple unmet needs.
