WASH Project for Chamchamal Camp in Sulaymaniyah Governorate-Kurdistan, Iraq In anticipation of the operation to liberate Mosul City and the expected Due to Iraq crisis andsignificant displacement of  IDPs in to the areas including the Northern parts of Iraq and KRI, all the humanitarian partners are trying to support the IDPs by providing the most basic requirements in WASH, food, shelter, protection and so on. Lack of resources is however constraining the work of the humanitarian partners. 
Through this application to IHPF, QRC will cover the preparedness activities to establish Chamchamal camp (Sulaymaniyah), including: Borehole development, installation of additional water tanks and tap stands to reach WASH Cluster minimum standards, installation of a water distribution network (to avoid water trucking), provision of garbage bins and provision of hygiene kits. QRC would then use its already available funding to cover first line response (water trucking, waste collection, OampM of facilities, hygiene promotion etc.) once the camp is established and people are arriving.
All the proposed activities to IHPF will be implemented in duration of (3months). As mentioned in the UN agencies meeting, MoDM will provide the Shelter, install sanitation facilities, provide water tanks (1,000 liters) and sewerage network inside of the plots with septic tank, for all 5,000 families. The additional work by QRC will assure that water supply is available for the camp and that WASH facilities will be developed according to the WASH Cluster Minimum Standards, which are aligned to the Sphere standards. In developing  this proposal QRC has aligned interventions to the “Draft WASH Response against Settlement Typology” and “Minimum Action on Gender in Emergency in Iraq” that has been shared by WASH Cluster as a part of MOSUL CONTINGENCY PLANNING.
Close coordination of QRC with local authorities and also humanitarian partners of the area will be followed during implementation of the work.
QRC will select the contractor thru tender bidding with full transparency. Selecting of contractor will not going to depend on the lowest price only, it will depend on the quality of the work and materials also. QRC field team will monitor/supervise the work of the contractor daily and will report to the management about any challenges and difficulties in the site. Same time the logistic team with close coordination of the project manager will ensure the quality of the materials will be provided to the IDPs.
With this approach of providing the basic WASH requirements items and Services, IDPs especially women and children will feel safe and can use the WASH facilities with dignity, because each households will going to receive basic water required for drinking, cooking, personal hygiene, receiving hygiene kits which include special item for women, provided the IDP by the basic hygiene massages thru hygiene promotion sessions and campaigns, this will reduce the cases of GBVs and violence. Also this approach will reduce the cases of spreading diseases and cholera by providing the communal garbage bins, daily cleaning of the grey water channels, regular garbage collection and removal, and hygiene promotion campaigns with involvement of the camp community.
