and IDPs affected by El Nino in Baidoa district of
Somalia ltpgtltbrgtThe heavy rains and floods linked to the El Nino weather phenomena have killed dozens of people and caused widespread displacement, destruction of infrastructures, particularly in Somalia, where the rains have wrecked bridges and submerged residential areas. According to SoDMA and humanitarian partners more than 1.7 million people are in need as torrential rains destroyed their homes, existing WASH infrastructures and livelihoods in Somalia. The number of people displaced by heavy rains and floods in Somalia has nearly doubled in one week from 334,800 to 649,000 (OCHA Somalia Flood sitrep/17th Nov. 2023. Over half a million more people have been affected, bringing the total to 1.7 million, up from 1.17 million a week ago. This figure exceeds planning and preparedness figures. The torrential rains and floods have exacerbated the hunger crisis in Somalia. ltbrgtAccording to Somalia WASH Cluster update (Nov 2023), since the onset of 2023 Deyr Season, heavy rains fell in south-West State of Somalia have resulted in historic flash floods across Baidoa district with over 400,000 affected. In addition, floods have resulted widespread damage to the already limited WASH facilities (latrines and water sources) in Southwest State. ltbrgtIn response to this unforeseen Elnino flooding, particularly in Baidoa district, WARDO, through SHF fund, plans to implement life-saving WASH intervention targeting a total of 25,000 people affected by the flood in Baidoa. ltbrgt Deliver emergency voucher water supply to 15,000 people for a short duration of 2 monthsltbrgt Rehabilitation of 4 shallow well serving 2,000 flood affected communities in Baidoaltbrgt Construction of new a total of 96 new latrines serving 2,880 flood affected people living IDP camps.ltbrgt Hygiene promotion and kits distribution targeting 25,000 people from IDPs and poor host communities in Baidoaltbrgt Provision of solid waste management service including distribution of 85 sanitation tool kits to undertake cleanup campaigns and draining stagnated flood water in and around houses with specially focus on IDP settlements.ltbrgt Regular water quality monitoring and treatment for a total of 20 water sources in Baidoa town.ltbrgtWARDO will ensure community participation and inclusion in all project implementation process and will promote women participation in project activities including sustainable management of constructed and rehabilitated WASH facilities.ltbrgtlt/pgt
Provision of immediate life-saving emergency food assistance for the flood-affected populations in Beletweyne district through Unconditional Cash transfers ltpgtThe proposed
project seeks to improve access to basic food items for 810 households or 4860 vulnerable men, women, girls, and boys including 15% of people with disabilities and marginalized communities who are food insecure and their condition could be worse in the
coming El Nino if not addressed. The project is designed to address the
immediate food needs of the most vulnerable rural households from villages under Beletweyne district through unconditional cash transfers valued at USD70/hh to cover the Minimum Expenditure Basket (MEB). The
project will primarily target riverine communities that were affected by recent floods in 2023 and are expected to be the
most hit by the predicted El Nino floods. lt/pgtltpgtThe project will be implemented in a period of 4 months in the proposed 18 villages of (Dolamadow, Qarsoni, Labka, Haracadey, Dolagal, Hodley, Helakelyo, Garaash, Lafole, Dheriyow, Qoqane, Biyoqurun, Kurtumaley, Bacadbuke, Lugbari, Dabeyl, Bulakahin and Silgalow). The proposed villages fall under our ongoing food security intervention areas where we are providing farm inputs, distribution of tools, and drums, land preparation  community training on GAPs, Farm Management, DRR, Organic Fertilizer, and Financial Management.  The ongoing project is funded by ltbgtBMZlt/bgt through our partner ltbgtaction medeorlt/bgt based in Germany. The project will undertake beneficiary registration, agreement signing with a mobile transfer company, transfer of cash to the 810 hhs, and a Post post-distribution monitoring activity to verify beneficiaries' satisfaction and get feedback. The
organization will implement the project directly, and the targeting of eligible
households will be undertaken jointly with community-based committees in each
location using an inclusive community-based target (ICBT) approach that is
participatory. WARDI will work closely with IRW to avoid overlap of activities in the same villages. Also on matters of water provision to affected populations, WARDI will work with Action Aid and AADSOM. Vulnerable groups such as people with disabilities and the older population will be integrated into the program in close work relationships with MCAN. Other partners with whom WARDI will work closely will include HINNA on the provision of NFI kits and plastic sheets, and HIWA on protection issues of the affected persons. ltbrgtlt/pgt

Provision of life-saving WASH services to drought affected displaced population in IDP sites and rural areas in Baidoa, Somalia ltpgtltpgtAccording to FASNAU drought response release on March 25, 2023, prolonged drought in Somalia continues to limit access to safe water and adequate sanitation and hygiene services, contributing to a surge in outbreaks of cholera, Acute Watery Diarrhea (AWD) and measles. Due to severe drought, an estimated 8 million people need water, sanitation, and hygiene assistance in 2023, a 25 per cent increase from last year. Some of the most affected areas that continue to face the risk of drought and water shortage including Baidoa district of Southwest State.lt/pgtltpgtltbrgtlt/pgtltpgtltbrgtltspangtACTED designed the proposed intervention in line
with SHF First Standard Allocation Strategy for 2023, with a focus on minimizing
further displacements by investing in hard-to-reach rural locations in Bay
Region. To achieve this goal, ACTED is proposing an 11-month sustainable
intervention to provide life-saving access to clean and safe drinking water,
sanitation facilities, and promote safe hygiene practices flt/spangtltspangtor 2,333 householdsnbsp(13,998 individuals) (Men:
3360, women: 3639, boys: 2800, girls: 4199), including 10%

ltpgtltbrgtUnder water-supply, ACTED will conduct a hydrogeological/geophysical and environmental impact assessment, which will be followed by the construction of sustainable water sources in Baidoa rural areas that will benefit drought affected IDPs and rural areas. To increase the sustainability of WASH services, ACTED will enhance the capacity of WASH Management Committees to manage, operate and maintain WASH facilities in the target locations.nbspAdditionally, ACTED will conduct hygiene promotion campaign, distribution of hygiene kits that will focus on disease outbreak prevention including AWD, cholera and measles.lt/pgtltpgtltbrgtThe project is designed to ensure equitable access to WASH services by elderly and people living with disabilities, safety of children and dignity and privacy for women and girls. The provision of immediate life-saving and sustainable solutions will contribute greatly to the reduction of morbidity/mortality and an improved sense of dignity, comfort, and security. Coordination with WASH clusters at national and state levels will be maintained, in addition to ongoing coordination with general key actors in Baidoa district. Gender issues will be addressed through collecting gender and age-disaggregated data, which will be analyzed to identify gaps, implement disability inclusive and gender-sensitive interventions, and ensure people with disabilities and women's participation/empowerment. Protection of beneficiaries will be ensured during access and utilization of services to minimize future risks.ltbrgtlt/pgtlt/pgt
Provision of lifesaving NFIs and Plastic Sheets to the El Niño floods displaced persons in Berdale district, Bay region. ltpgtSomalia is facing a once-in-a-century flooding with over 1.7M people affected, damaging critical infrastructure including roads, bridges and approximately 1.5 million hectares of farmland potentially being destroyed. Increased rainfall is forecasted due to a concurrence of El Niño conditions and according to the Food and Agriculture Organization’s Somali Water and Land Information Management projects, flooding of such magnitude is statistically likely only once in 100 years, with significant anticipated humanitarian impacts.lt/pgtltpgtAbove-normal rainfall is expected to persist until the end of 2023, exacerbating the already grave humanitarian situation, whereby 4.3 million people, a quarter of the population are expected to face crisis-level hunger or worse by the end of 2023 underscoring the urgent need for humanitarian aid and funding.lt/pgtltpgt  ltbrgtConcerted efforts by humanitarian actors, donors, the government, and other stakeholders are needed to mitigate the impacts of such destructive flooding. However, early warning and early action can save lives and livelihoods, but large-scale displacement, increased humanitarian needs, and further destruction of property remains the greatest risks facing the population.lt/pgtltpgtltbrgtRecent Multi-sector Rapid Needs assessment conducted in Berdale (attached) indicate that the people displaced by the floods lack NFIs and Shelter support that are essential for their survival. Therefore, Through this project, CESDO aims to improve living conditions, provide protection from hazardous weather conditions, and enhance privacy, safety, and dignity of the El Nino floods affected persons in Berdale by providing standard NFIs and 2 additional plastic sheets to 2,200 HHs approximately 13,200 people (5,300 women, 2,600 girls, 3,200 men and 2,100 boys).
