Emergency Health and Nutrition Responses in Oromia and Somali Regions Save the Children proposes to implement an emergency health and nutrition project using five Mobile Health and Nutrition Teams (MHNT) and working at three static clinics aiming at enhancing access to quality, lifesaving health and acute malnutrition management services in eight woredas of Oromia region (5 woredas of Bale Zone and 3 woredas of East Wellega Zone) and 4 woredas of Somali region (1 woreda of Liben Zone and 3 woredas of Liben zone, benefiting 78,759 (30,360M,48,399F) people, including 42,629 (16,551M, 26,078F) IDPs. 50% of the total beneficiaries will be targeted from the IDPs and the remaining 50% from the host community. 

Targeting of beneficiaries and site selection will be carried out in close coordination with local government and community representatives through the formation of community committees and will be flexible in terms of location (within the region) to adapt to changing needs on the ground. The selection criterial and daily operations of the MHNT and static clinic services will be coordinated with relevant Woreda Health Offices and regional health clusters, and with consultations with committees and target beneficiaries, to ensure that exceptionally vulnerable groups are served. Save the Children will consult with women, children (boys amp girls), people with disabilities and elderly people to ensure awareness, appropriateness and accessibility of project activities.

The proposed intervention woredas are classified as priority one hotspots affected by prolonged drought and conflicts in the two regions. The MHN team will deliver general medical consultation and referrals, IMNCI services, ANC and postnatal follow-ups, referral care for deliveries, immunization and Vitamin-A supplementation, early warning and disease surveillance, and trauma care and referral services, and will ensure complementarity with the nutrition, WASH, food and protection sectors to save lives and reduce morbidity. SC will also conduct campaigns to promote immunization against measles.

Women and children, vulnerable groups including IDPs, the elderly and people with disabilities, and those suffering from acute malnutrition, will be prioritized for the emergency services. The 2 regions are hosting over 1,250,037 conflict-induced and climate-induced IDPs who are suffering from poor access to lifesaving, preventive and curative health services. Additionally, need assessment conducted (April 2019) which indicates that access to basic health care services for IDPs have been among the significant challenges for the local health system due to shortage of skilled man power, shortage of drug and medical supply and lack of logistics. MHNTs and static clinic proposed under this project will fill these critical service gaps. The project will be implemented for six months with starting date on June, 15 ,2019 in the twelve woredas of Oromia and Somali Regions.
Prevention of and response to Gender-Based Violence (GBV) in conflict affected woredas of Jarso, Babile and Melakbelo of East Hararghe This proposal is developed in response to the humanitarian crises in East Harerghe zone of Oromia region, resulted due to conflict-induced movement. Large number of IDP’s as well as returnees are hosted in East Hararghe without sufficient access to various basic needs and protection.   In East Hararghe curentlly there are 130,102 IDP’s and 157,219 returnees residing dispersed in to various woredas. World vision prioritized woredas Melkabello, Babile, and Jarso are amongst these woredas affected by the influx of IDP’s and returnees. Hence, World vision has developed this proposal to address the protection need of IDP’s and returnees in particular amongst the most vulnerable ones, which are girls and women. World vision plans to implement a gender based violence prevention, mitigation, and response project to address the need of the most vulnerable girls and women. This is vital considering various GBV risk factors identified affecting girls and women and the protection response gap identified in the target woredas. 
The overall Goal of the project is to address the protection need of women and girls through gender based violence prevention, mitigation, and response project. Towards this end world vison will implement a comprehensive project, which focuses on provision of capacity development for GBV response service providers and providers of humanitarian assistance and by conducting GBV awareness raising sessions to empower the community to take action towards protection of women and girls. In addition, world vision will provide structured community based psychosocial support for girls and women in the prioritized two woredas and psychosocial support service through women friendly spaces in one woreda. Women and Girls will be able to receive psychological first aid service, peer-to-peer support, life skill trainings, and entrepreneurship trainings towards their resilience and economic recovery.  Returnee Women and adolescent girls will be provided with cash transfer towards investment in income generating activities. World vision will also ensure that survivors of GBV in the prioritized woredas will receive appropriate service. World vision will strengthen the capacity of GBV response service providers by facilitating various trainings on psychological first aid, basics of GBV, and case management. Cash transfer support will be provided to survivors of GBV to facilitate their access to medical care and other basic needs. In addition, Dignity kit will be provided to women and reproductive age girls to ensure their mobility, health and dignity.
Emergency Shelter and Non-Food Item Response for Displaced and Returnee Communities in Ethiopia This project responds to the shelter and non-food item needs of conflict-displaced IDP/returnee households in Hawi Gudina Woreda, West Hararaghe Zone, Oromiya Region, in accordance with the 2019 HRP priorities, Shelter amp NFI Cluster strategy, and priorities for this EHF allocation round. GOAL proposes a flexible response that will meet household needs in accordance with the context. 

GOAL will distribute shelter repair kits for returnee households, and ESNFIs for displaced households. Households will be prioritised and targeted in accordance with the Cluster guidance notes on targeting criteria. 

The shelter and NFI needs of 780 households are expected to be met, using a cash and in-kind modality, in accordance with the appropriateness and feasibility of each modality within each context, and based on market assessments.
- An expected 380 households will be reached with in-kind shelter repair kits, cash top-up for labour for shelter reconstruction, and carpenter training (Building Back Better)
- An expected 400 households will be reached with in-kind ESNFIs and vouchers for NFIs to be procured on the locally market directly by the beneficiaries. 

GOAL will engage a financial service provider to carry out conditional cash transfers for households targeted for shelter rehabilitation. GOAL will establish MoUs with local vendors for selected NFIs from the Cluster standard NFI list. The targeted beneficiary households will therefore receive either cash (for labour) or vouchers (for ESNFIs) alongside the in-kind shelter rehabilitation or ESNFI kits which GOAL will distribute.

Protection concerns will be mainstreamed across all activities, to ensure that the needs of more vulnerable groups are met, to ensure participation, empowerment, meaningful access, accountability, and that interventions prioritize safety and dignity and avoid causing harm.
ESNFI Emergency Response for IDPs and returnees in Gedeo, West Harerghe and West Wolega Zones The 2019 Humanitarian Response Plan (HRP) seeks $1.314 billion to reach 8.3 million people with emergency food and non-food assistance. Out of which 2.7 million displaced people and returnees are projected to benefit from emergency shelter and NFI assistance until the end of the year. CRS and its local partners, the Ethiopian Catholic Church and Social Development Coordinating office of Hawassa (ECC-SDCOHA), the Ethiopian Catholic Church and Social Development Coordinating office of Harar (ECC-SDCOH) and the Ethiopian Catholic Church and Social Development Coordinating office of Nekmet (ECC-SDCON) will implement emergency shelter (ES)/non-food items (NFIs) in Gedeo, West and East Harerghe and East and West Wolega Zones. The targeted populations are affected by internal displacement due to civil conflict in Gedeo Zone, East and West Harerghe and East and West Wolega areas. 

The project will target 4,900 vulnerable households in Gedeb woreda, and woredas TBC in East/West Wolega and Hararghe (exact locations to be chosen with input from sub cluster coordination teams in Gedeo/Guji, East and West Wolega and Harerghe) and 420 HHs will get return package items. The project will provide Emergency Shelter primarily through in-kind distribution of humanitarian standard tarp and ropes, given the shortage of standard humanitarian tarps the preferred modality is to import humanitarian graded tarps from Nairobi. In addition, the project will meet the immediate Non-Food Item (NFI) needs of 4,500 IDP and returnee households out of which 300 will be from Gedeb, 1,000 from Doba and another 1,000 from Boji Deremeji woredas. Both ES and NFI support will be provided as a complete kit/package based on the needs of the households. ES/NFI support provided will be in accordance to Sphere Standards and with guidance from the Shelter/NFI Working Group, national and sub cluster coordinator. Priority NFI items include: bedding set, mosquito net, kitchen set, and hygiene kits. CRS will consider providing NFI items through cash transfers, or a mix of in-kind and cash (70% in kind and 30% in cash), following rapid market assessments in the target areas which will determine the most feasible and appropriate modality, by considering factors such as availability and quality of priority items, accessibility of markets and preferences of beneficiaries. The project budgeted for S/NFI $122 per household.

CRS will use private and complementary resources to initiate peace building activities, including community infrastructure rehabilitation to reduce pre-existing tensions between communities and returnees. Other private and complimentary resources will be used to supplement ES/NFIs for 740 returnees in Gedeo and West Guji. With the additional funding from DFID and Private donors, CRS/ECC-SDCOHA will work with the community on construction of transitional shelter for returnees. With support from the Government of Ethiopia and ESNF clusters at different level, the project will support training on durable and safe emergency shelter construction options
Life - saving assistance to internally displaced persons in Guji Zone, Oromia Region, South-eastern Ethiopia The project contributes to the provision of life-saving assistance to Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) and host communities in Ethiopia by delivering integrated WASH and NFIs in Guji Zone, Oromia Region. Currently, Guji zone is hosting 56,986 IDPs located in 8 woredas: Goro Dola, Liben, Wadera, Gumi Eldelo, Seba Boru, Aga Wayu, Oda Shakiso, Adola Rede. Specifically, Goro Dola has the highest number of IDPs (23,078), followed by Liben (17,477) and Gumi Eldallo (4,700). COOPI is already covering with WASH and Emergency Shelter NFI IDPs camps in Gumi Eldallo and Liben Woredas. Through this proposal COOPI will support 16,251 IDPs located in 5 kebeles and 1,750 individuals of neighboring hosting communities in Goro Dola Woreda, potential sites are Jidola and Adadi kebeles. However, due to the volatile situation in the area, COOPI will monitor the movements of the IDPs. In total, about 18,000  individuals will be supported by the project with a range of activities. Two complementary project components are planned: 1. WASH - 2 boreholes will be rehabilitated/extended expanding availability of water. Water users ' committees will be trained to operate the 2 boreholes rehabilitated (potential water schemes: Jidola Borehole and Nurahumba water supply scheme). 7 blocks of trench latrines will be built in order to reach 4,200 individuals. All beneficiaries will be engaged in an awareness campaign on hygiene, water treatment and basic sanitation. 3,000 household will have access to safe water through the distribution of water purification treatments. 2. multisectoral NFIs distribution - 504 most vulnerable IDPs families will receive WASH NFI kits made of essential hygiene items. Beside it, approximately 1450 vulnerable families will receive Emergency Shelter and NFI support through in-kind and/or cash transfer.
Housing, Land, and Property in Gedeo and West Guji The purpose of this project is to address the numerous complex and overlapping issues related to housing, land, and property (HLP) in Gedeo and West Guji from a protection perspective. NRC’s assessments have found that conflict affected individuals in the region have had their land ownership documents and/or legal identity documents confiscated or destroyed, that it may be difficult to locate accurate land records at the kebele or woreda level, and that there are competing narratives about who owns what land. There are reports of secondary (illegal occupation), disputes over boundaries, and unlawful evictions. 

Given the above, as IDPs consider a return to their areas of origin, they will require legal advice about establishing ownership rights over their land. Likewise, humanitarian actors will require support in order to determine how best to assess competing ownership claims prior to providing assistance, particularly shelter assistance.

This project aims to work closely with displacement affected communities  (IDPs, returnees and host communities), providing information, counselling and legal assistance to beneficiaries seeking to demonstrate land use rights in the region, while also working with shelter actors already operating in Gedeo and Guji to ensure that a due diligence approach is adopted prior to any intervention.  If HLP issues are not addressed from the outset of an emergency they can undermine the entire humanitarian response and exclude the most vulnerable.
Peace building and Protection for IDPs and Returnees in Gedeo and West Guji Zones Gedeo Zone, located in Southern Nations, Nationalities, and Peoples' Region (SNNPR) and West Guji Zone, located in Oromia Region are currently affected by a complex and protracted humanitarian crisis
stemming from civil unrest and ethnic tension. The ethnic violence along the border areas of Gedeo and West Guji Zones in early June 2018 led to the displacement of over 800,000 people in the Gedeo Zone and 185,000 people in the West Guji Zone of Oromia Region. In August 2018, the government of Ethiopia started encouraging the return movement of IDPs to their homes. Many IDPs are coming back to destroyed shelters, loss of belongings, and damaged basic infrastructure. Given the complexity of the conflict, tensions continue to exist between the ethnically different host communities, returnees, and remaining IDPs. Though efforts are made by different stakeholders, including CRS, over the last few months there are still extensive protection concerns due to the abrupt return of IDPs to their areas of origin. 

CRS and its partner, the Ethiopian Catholic Church Social and Development Commission Coordinating Branch Office of Hawassa (ECC-SDCBHA) will provide a comprehensive set of activities
to enhance understanding of conflict resolution and peacebuilding in targeted communities in Gedeo and W. Guji zones of SNNPR and Oromia Regions respectively. Continuing with the already started peacebuilding activities in Gedeo and W. Guji zones, CRS and ECC-SDCBHA will closely work with the two local governments (Zonal and Woredas) and a wide range of stakeholders including the youth, schools, universities, and religious and traditional leaders to facilitate peaceful coexistence in the two communities. 

The project will take place over the span of six months in thirteen woredas to address 14,760 conflict affected households (73,800 individuals). In coordination with the UN, other non-government organizations, and government actors, CRS/ECC-SDCBHA will work with all implementing partners to provide a sustainable response. The goal of the intervention will be to enhance protection through achievement of a peaceful coexistence between Gedeo and Guji ethnic groups. CRS/ECC-SDCBHA have identified three Strategic Objectives (SOs) to achieve this goal:

SO1: Youth peace ambassadors are supported and engaged in peace building and reconciliation
efforts
SO2: Targeted schools are supported to strengthen/establish school peace clubs and contribute to the ongoing peace building effortsThe Schools will be selected based of agreed up on criteria by all implementing partners (local government, CRS, ECC-SDCBHa and other relevant bodies)in reference to relevant principles including the DNH principles.  
SO3: Targeted communities have implemented connector projects that would bring the two communities together and encourage peaceful coexistence. 

The activities include 8 implementation of connector projects, working with 26 school’s peace club and engaging youth ambassadors in the 13 woredas.
Emergency multi-sectoral response to IDP and drought affected communities in Hararghe and Borena zones in Oromia region This emergency life-saving intervention targets two zones, Borena (Oromia), Hararghe (Oromia) and Diredewa, providing emergency nutritional and IYCF (Infant and Young Child Feeding) interventions to the most vulnerable population. Both targeted zones have high levels of emergency need, with vulnerable women, men, boys and girls affected by acute malnutrition and poor access and availability of services. In Borena, frequent violence, resurgent displacements of high numbers of the population and relocated IDPs have affected the already fragile health amp WASH system. In Hararghe, high numbers of IDPs (Internally Displaced People) have put a burden on host community services, itself affected by drought conditions and high malnutrition rates. The additional populations in both areas are putting a strain on the ability of government services to cope and provide the support needed. For each area of intervention, AAH (Action Against Hunger) adapts their approach to reduce morbidity and mortality associated with under nutrition among children U5 (Under 5) and PLW (Pregnant amp Lactating Women). The project will strengthen and sustain the existing health system and provide support for IDPs and Host Communities. Some of the services provided through this action includes the treatment of Severe Acute Malnutrition (SAM) treatment of Moderate Acute Malnutrition (MAM) and Community Mobilization Support to the Government of Ethiopia (GoE) outreach clinics where needed Promotion of Care Practices and IYCF among children and their care-givers and psychosocial support for IDPs and host communities.
Strengthening provision of lifesaving health services to IDPs and host communities in Benishangul Gumuz, Oromia, Somali and Southern Nations, Nationalities, and Peoples'(SNNP) Regions. This project will address the needs of overburdened existing health system in response to the increased demand caused by massive forced displacement due to conflicts in priority zones in Benishangul Gumuz, SNNP, Oromia and Somali regions. Medicines and medical supplies will be procured and logistics will be provided to fill in for increased consumption and prevailing stock raptures, to support services to the conflict affected communities in the aforementioned areas.  Additionally, the project will preposition and provide potential surge stock for Cholera response in the target zones. The medicines and medical supplies necessary for the response to the IDPs will also support the treatment of increasing number of endemic communicable diseases, especially among the most vulnerable conflict affected host communities and IDPs. Laboratory supplies including sample collection materials, rapid diagnostic tests and reagents for confirmation of cases supports provision of the most appropriate treatment for various pathogens in accordance with national guidelines. 

Somali region faces specific humanitarian crises as a result of superimposed humanitarian events and has therefore triggered a special regional allocation which is included in this proposal. Over one million people have been displaced (50% of the IDPs are children) within the Somali region, which continue to experience repetitive and predictable crises including drought, and floods, disease outbreaks (especially measles and cholera), and acute malnutrition. Moreover, acute shortages of water are already being experienced owing to failure or shortage of rain, and this will affect the lives and livelihoods of pastoralist and agro-pastoralist communities, their production, markets and sources of income and other social service. An upsurge of conflict IDPs was reported around the border areas of Oromia and Somali regions since early September 2017. Over the course of the following months, the conflict has left hundreds of thousands displaced, often in areas already experiencing ongoing drought related humanitarian needs. Nearly all districts along the regional borders are affected. According to the DTM, the estimated number of people displaced is 1.1 million who are not still getting adequate assistance. Malaria, acute watery diarrhea and measles are major anticipated health risks 2019 due to the high IDP caseload, poor sanitation practices in the IDPs camps and compromised access to health care services. A flood alert has already been issued for low lying areas of Somali region according to 2019 National flood contingency plan. Based on the special allocation awarded to the  region 18% of the total funding will be dedicated to Somali.
