Provision of Direct Protection Assistance and GBV Response Services to Affected Populations in Oromia and Somalia Regions of Ethiopia The overall goal of this project is to strengthen the provision of direct protection assistance, including gender-based violence (GBV) response services to internally displaced persons (IDPs) and IDP returnees in Oromia (East Hararge) and Somalia regions (Fafan). The interventions will be in line with IOM’s Institutional Framework for Addressing GBV in Crises and IOM’s Protection Policy. 

General Protection

The project proposes interventions to identify protection risks within and around IDP sites/collective centres, areas of return/relocations (where applicable) and address and mitigate protection needs/risks of IDPs and/or IDP returnees. This will be through protection risk assessments and individual protection assistance (IPA) to support individuals with time-bound protection needs. The activities will prioritize the needs of persons with disabilities (PWDs). 

Gender-based Violence (GBV)

Under the GBV sub-cluster objectives, the project will respond holistically to meet the needs of affected populations, particularly women and girls in IDP sites/collective centres and/or areas of return through mobile GBV service delivery. The activities will variously include GBV case management, including cash assistance psychosocial support distribution of dignity kits, and awareness raising on GBV and sensitization on service availability. Where possible, the mobile GBV response will be co-located with IOM’s health response in the region to enable safe entry points, where the latter will support with the provision of sexual and reproductive health services and clinical management of rape (CMR). 

Finally, the project will also aim to build staff and partner protection capacities, including on protection mainstreaming, psychosocial support and psychological first aid (PFA), GBV risk mitigation, responding safely and ethically to GBV disclosures and disability inclusion.
Camp management and camp coordination services to the IDPs in the 4 sites of Tuluguled woreda of Fafan Zone in the Somali Regional State More than 23 million people in Ethiopia are in need of humanitarian assistance due to the effects of multiple crises ranging from recurrent droughts and flooding to desert locust infestation, COVID-19 pandemic and civil war. Ongoing armed conflict and inter communal violence continued to be the key drivers of humanitarian needs in Ethiopia, especially in the north but also in the Oromia and Somali regions. The Ethiopia Crisis Response Plan (2022) of IOM states that, Ethiopia is also the second largest refugee-hosting country in Africa hosting over 823,000 refugees and asylum seekers. Most of the refugees are accommodated in  26  refugee  camps  with  limited  services  and  depend  largely  on humanitarian assistance. 

The number of internally displaced people in the country increased from 3.2m in 2018 to 4.3m in late 2021. Insecurity and access restrictions hampered the relief operation and exacerbated the humanitarian crisis. The Humanitarian Needs Overview (2021) stated that Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) are amongst the groups that are hardest hit by the humanitarian situation in Ethiopia. An alarming 56 per cent of woredas (220 out of 395) hosting IDPs face ‘extreme’ humanitarian conditions, with many of these woredas located in Oromia (64), Somali (62), and Tigray (39). According to Ethiopia CCCM master list updated in December 2021, 871,176 IDPs (about 52% female) are residing in 427 sites in the Somali Region. Out of these sites only 5 are CCCM managed by IOM, UNHCR and ACTED. While there are four camps (Darimi, Gabagabo, Sariirta and Tuliguled Town) in the Tuliguled woreda of Fafan Zone in the Somali Region, none of the camps are CCCM managed. 

The IDPs are from Oromia and from boarder Kebeles under Somali Region. There are 27,545 IDP needy individuals at four centers Gabi-Gabo-7225 HHs (3284M), Darmi, Masile and Tulu Gulled) town in Tullu Guled  Woreda for the last 5 years. The coordination and camp management of the IDP centers in three rural kebeles and one transit center in Tuluguled town is run by government DRM and administration at all levels and there are no NGOs involved in coordination and management apart  from provision of different supports  for time being

The proposed interventions aim at providing effective coordination at camp level between the humanitarian assistance and protection programmes being delivered to the displaced population.
"Strengthening the interagency Ethiopia PSEA Network through the establishment of community-based complaint and mechanisms (CBCMs) as well as survivor-centred support services as response to sexual exploitation and abuse (SEA) amongst internally displaced people (IDP) communities in Tigray (i.e. Mekelle, Shire and Axum) region of Ethiopia. The overarching goal of the proposed project is to strengthen the interagency Ethiopia PSEA Network to engage directly with regional humanitarian stakeholders/focal points and affected communities of internally displaced people (IDPs) in Tigray (Mekelle, Shire and Axum) regions of Ethiopia (i.e., especially women and children) by establishing and creating meaningful access to safe, anonymous and confidential community-based complaint mechanisms (CBCMs) for SEA reporting. This will also include establishment of/support to a sub-regional PSEA Networks through capacity building activities. In addition, close consultation with affected IDP populations on preferred CBCMs will be ensured in order to establish support that is survivor-centred rights-based age, disability and gender sensitive non-discriminatory and culturally appropriate. As such, the proposed project aim to call attention to the stigmatisation of SEA reporting amongst at-risk IDP communities in the the region, ensuring access to and information on established survivor-centred services (i.e factoring in intersectional gender- and ability-based differences in literacy levels and in meaningful access to tools amongst the affected).
Strengthen gender mainstreaming throughout the humanitarian programme cycle in general, and EHF-funded projects in particular. The overarching goal of this proposed project is to strengthen inter-agency gender mainstreaming and advance the Gender in Humanitarian Action agenda. This will be done by creating clear and practical tools which can be easily implemented including a Protection and Gender Mainstreaming Pocket Guide for humanitarian responders and Information, Education, and Communication materials on advancing gender equality for humanitarian responders and crisis-affected communities. In addition, this project will strengthen capacities on gender mainstreaming of Clusters at national and regional levels, NGOs, and CSOs, with a particular focus on EHF-fund recipients. This will be done by providing trainings on the Protection and Gender Mainstreaming Pocket Guide, Gender in Humanitarian Action, Sex and Age Disaggregated Data (SADD), and the Gender and Age Marker (GAM). In line with the localization agenda and UN Women’s mandate, this project will include CSOs, specifically Women Led Organizations and Women Rights Organizations, in capacity building opportunities. The above will help ensure that EHF-funded projects provide a more gender-sensitive response considering intersectional differences.
WASH conflict response in Oromia Save the children, International (SCI) plans to have a life saving WASH conflict response in Oromia East Wellega of  Sasiga, Haro limu, Gida Ayana amp Kiremu Woredas as per the recommendation of Oromia WASH cluster. SCI in line with the cluster recommended response strategy would propose a full package WaSH response that ensures that the conflict-affected communities will access supports of essential WASH services. This will address the identified needs amp gaps of rehabilitation of water facilities (shallow/hand-dug wells, springs amp pipelines), replacement of damaged/non-functional electro-mechanical items, provision of water treatment amp testing supplies, training of water management committees amp provision of a maintenance kit. SCI will provide gender-sensitive sanitation facilities including emergency pit latrines with hand washing to IDP settlement amp semi-permanent latrines in selected priority HCFs with cleaning products. SCI will also train CHVs on key good hygiene practices and cascade awareness raising through hygiene promotion to the IDP amp host community through house-to-house visits, health education at HCFs, and mass campaigns. Selected most vulnerable households will be provided with basic WaSH-NFI supplies including Jeri cans, soaps, buckets amp water treatment chemicals.
To provide critical life-saving assistance through nutrition interventions to most acutely vulnerable groups affected by the expanding severe drought in Dhas, Dire, Elwaye, and Miyo woredas of Borena Zone, and through health interventions in Chinaksen and Gola Odda woredas of East Hararghe Zone of Oromia Region with a special attention given to children under-five 5, pregnant and lactating women (PLW), people with disability (PWD) and old people. According to the 2021 Mid-Year Humanitarian Response Plan (HRP), 14.8 million are targeted for humanitarian assistance. About 3.2 million of them are targeted to receive basic lifesaving health services, the majority (55%) being children. Likewise, an estimated 2.91 million people are targeted for humanitarian nutrition response, with children under the age of five accounting for 72% of the targeted beneficiaries. This EHF-funded emergency Nutrition response aim to contribute to the reduction of nutrition related morbidity and mortality among children under five years of age (U5), Pregnant and Lactating Women (PLW), and women of child-bearing age in six drought-affected and prioritized woredas of Borena zone, Oromia region.
The nutrition response will contribute to the reduction of morbidity and mortality among children under five years of age (U5), PLW, and women of childbearing age in the intervention woredas. Key nutrition intervention focus areas include both preventive and recuperative services. The recuperative services include strengthening the local health system capacity to detect, refer, and treatment mainly acutely malnutrition children under five years of age and PLW in TFP and TSFP. While the preventive nutrition intervention focuses on the protection, promotion, and support of adequate Infant and Young Children Feeding (IYCF) program in the context of emergency by applying effective and proven methods and mechanisms. In addition, strengthening local health system capacity on early warning, nutrition situation surveillance, and nutrition emergency preparedness and response planning will be given due emphasis. Logistically and technical support will be delivered to nutrition service delivery sites. Procurement and provision of gap-filling routine medications, supplies, and equipment will be done to ensure the quality of SAM and MAM management in intervention areas. Provision of standard nutrition training such as IMAM/CMAM, IYCF will be provided to frontline health workers based on needs and gaps and in line with the national guidelines. Post-training follow-up, mentoring, and coaching of health workers will continue to be key attributes of the AAH’s nutrition intervention approach in proposed woredas. 
AAH endeavors to achieve results stipulated in this EHF project through the active engagement, collaboration, and coordination between local health authorities, WHO, UNICEF and WFP as well as targeted communities. Moreover, cross-cutting issues such as PSEA, AAP, and Gender will be mainstreamed across all proposed activities.
Life Saving Emergency nutrition response in Jile Tumuga, Artuma Furisi, woredas of Oromia special zone of Amhara Region, Ethiopia In alignment with the EHF 2021 strategic allocation document, World Vision designed this nutrition response to respond to the emergency needs of the people in the prioritized hot spot districts of Oromia Special Zones of Amhara Region. The selection of the districts is based on hotspot priority for nutrition responses, the current SAM caseloads in the woredas and by considering some aggravating factors/situations in the area. Given the current COVID-19 pandemic, needs across health and nutrition are expected to increase as movement is restricted, livelihood opportunities decrease, and prices of food and basic necessities inflate. Effective emergency response requires the implementation of nutrition response program at both the facility and community levels in order to maximize the desired impact.
The health systems will be supported to identify and treat malnourished children, and the intervention will support children in need of Infant and Young Child Feeding practices and malnourished pregnant and lactating women. 
The overall objectives of initiating this response is to increase CMAM coverage and provide timely access to live-saving quality treatment of acute malnutrition for children under 5 (CU5) and pregnant and lactating women. In addition, the response will strengthen the capacity of Woreda Health Offices (WHOs) to improve systems for malnutrition response as well as to ensure the nutrition supply chain management.
The response will intensify MUAC screening among affected households and population for early case detection and treatments. The response will strengthen referral of malnourished cases to health facilities from host communities. An intensified community sensitization on key IYCF practices, hygiene promotion, and health seeking behaviors will be promoted. The response will support in repositioning of nutrition supplies and drugs for the treatment of malnourished children and PLW. Nutrition services are also strengthened in outreach sites in collaboration with the woreda health offices.
 Hence, World Vision Ethiopia is proposing emergency nutrition response in two woredas to implement the minimum package of nutrition interventions. This six months project (October 1st- 2021 to March 31th- 2022) intends to provide nutrition interventions to treat malnourished children, children in need of Infant and Young Child Feeding practices support, and malnourished pregnant and lactating women in order to build their immune response to disease, including COVID-19. The CMAM services also COVID-19 adaptive as per the  COVID-19 Prevention and Control SOPs..
Shelter  NFIs emergency response intervention in Central Zone, Tigray Region and Zone 2, Afar As August 2021, the humanitarian situation in Tigray and Afar is reported to be extremely dire with huge concerns on human rights violations, security conditions and accessibility to people in need. 
The project is linked with the “Ethiopia Emergency Shelter/NFI Cluster Q2-2021 Cluster Priority Locations and Activities” by targeting those woredas in both regions categorized as in extreme severity.  The Cluster has carried out the prioritization of severity based on recently accessible locations, number of IDPs, planned/completed responses and the ongoing conflict.In both Kilbati and Central Zone the Cluster has identified acute, lifesaving needs for shelter materials, essential household items, or a combination of both. 
This project will provide emergency lifesaving activities in Central Zone of Tigray region and Kilbati Zone, Afar by covering ES/NFIs needs, targeting 4920 HHs (estimated as 27050 individuals). 
Specifically:
In Tigray, the project covers the following woredas located in Central Zone: Ahsea: 790 HHs Egela: 790 HHs, Emba Sieneti 790 HHs Hahayle 790 HHs, Rama 660 HHs. Total individuals in Tigray are estimated as 21000.
In this geographical area, COOPI will implement the project in collaboration with Development for Peace Organization (DPO).
In Afar, the project targets Erebti Woreda in Kilbati Zone, 1100 HH or 6050 individuals. The operations in this area will be implemented by COOPI in partnership with Action for the Needy in Ethiopia (ANE).
COOPI collaboration with a National NGO is carried out recognizing the capacity of the partners to operate in the area of intervention and in adherence with the Grand Bargain localization agenda and the National NGOs’ Engagement – Strategy Paper, endorsed by the EHCT in June 2020.
In alignment with the cluster, the project targets as priority beneficiary groups IDPs. The consortium is committed to develop the activities taking in due consideration risk assessment and protection analysis, to follow conflict sensitive programming and ‘do no harm’ approaches while mainstreaming gender and age
Multi-sectorial response for most Conflict Affected IDPs and their host communities through Provision of Integrated Protection, Education, ES/NFI, Health, WASH and Nutrition Services in Dibatie and Wombera woredas of metekel Zone, Benishangul Gumuz Region According to the Ethiopia Humanitarian response plan of 2021, 23.5 million people are in need of emergency response. Among the people in need about 53% are children, 24% women and 15% persons with disabilities which implies that the most affected portion of people in need are the most vulnerable groups. It has been more than one year since the COVID-19 pandemic hit Ethiopia adding another layer of complexity to the already complex humanitarian context. According to Humanitarian Response Plan Ethiopia (HRP) 2021, COVID-19 has also slowed the country’s economic rate to 3.71 per cent down from the projected 10 per cent growth rate for 2020. As a result, the number of people requiring food and non-food assistance had already doubled from 7 million to 15.1 million by mid-2020. June 2020 attacks on civilians by an unidentified armed group (UAG), resulted in deaths of many civilians, displacement of thousands of people and destruction of homes and properties. During the conflict many people have lost their lives, thousands were displaced internally and outside the region. The ongoing armed conflict between the UAG and government forces up to March 2021, has reportedly displaced a total of 206,021 IDPs (36,000HH) within the zone while some 75,000 were reportedly displaced to Awi Zone in Amhara Region. The majority of IDP children were exposing to different child protection concerns such as separation, being unaccompanied, child labour, trafficking, begging, early marriage, denial of humanitarian assistance, psychological distress amp mental disorders, physical injuries, including death and sexual violence. IDP women also suffered from actual or perceived life-threatening problems due to the worsened security situation or conflict in the areas. Women are exposed to sexual violence (rape), denial of humanitarian assistance in IDP sites, physical violence, psychological distress amp mental disorders, and lack of access of SRH services. Schools and health facilities were demolished and looted and currently there is a big gap in the needs of basic services like health, education, protection, WASH and essential NFIs for about 22,100 households (130,446 individuals) who have been displaced from Dibatie, and Wombera Woredas of Metekel zone, Benishangul Gumuz region. 
To contribute and address the basic needs of affected people in the target woredas, Plan International together with national implementing partners MCMDO and ANE identified the most prioritized sectors and activities in the area of protection focusing on child protection and GBV Health needs in terms of access to essential Primary health care and basic MHPSS, Education needs through provision of scholastic materials and rehabilitation of basic school facilities improving access to basic WASH services as well as provision of essential NFIs to the most affected people.
Targeted Supplementary feeding Programme With the EHF contribution, WFP will provide treatment of children 6to 59 months and pregnant and lactating women (PLW) who are moderately malnourished. WFP will target 4 nutritionally vulnerable woredas in Somali region through the targeted supplementary feeding (TSF). With this fund, WFP will provide nutritional rehabilitation among moderately wasted children 6 to 59 months for a period of six months. For pregnant and lactating women, the contribution will support treatment for a period of two months and WFP will ensure the full treatment of up to six months from other resources.

WFP will ensure that the TSF programme is sensitive to the needs of the most vulnerable populations groups, by incorporating protection sensitive interventions in WFP operations.
Responding to Gender-Based Violence (GBV) in Internally Displaced Women and Girls in Adwa, Aahferom and Rama Woredas of Central Zone of Tigray Region. Responding to GBV in IDP community project planned to be implemented in Adwa, Ahferom and Rama  Woredas of  Tigray  Region. Adwa, Rama and Ahferom woredas have hosted 265,000 IDPs. Most of the shelters are totally damaged and IDPs are sleeping outside and collective centers (schools, stadiums and churches and the collective centers). Children and women and children are vulnerable to multiple GBV risks including sexual exploitation and abuse and women and girls caught in the conflict continue to fall victims to sexual violence and abuse in these woredas. Thus, in order to prevent and respond to GBV   in IDPs ASDEPO plans to provide GBV AoR  HRP 2021 activities, GBV-prevention, mitigation, awareness GBV-psychosocial support including case management GBV-capacity building GBV and dignity kits distribution. This project will directly reach 37,000 IDPs and host communities. The project will ensure the active participation of the targeted beneficiaries and stakeholders throughout the project cycle.
Providing Non-Food Items(NFIs) Kit  for IDP's and Host Communities in Raya Alamata woreda of Southern Zone of Tigray Region. This project will provide effective services in non-food Items kit  for 1100 HHs in Raya Alamata woreda of Southern Zone Tigray Regional State. The overall objective of the project is to provide life-saving non-food items kit  for a total of  1,100 HHs or 5,500 individuals  will be benefited for NFIs V1  affected by conflict. The project will target vulnerable IDPs and hosting HHs through timely delivery of  NFIs kit. ASDEPO is  following the ES/NFI priority locations and activities as well as following the ES/NFI strategy.  ASDEPO will prioritize, ensure contextualized access to lifesaving  NFIs for crisis affected people, to safeguard their health security, privacy and dignity and to improve their living conditions  of the most vulnerable displaced households. ASDEPO will distribute NFIs kit using  V1(bedding set, kitchen set and hygiene set). The standard is indicate on the logical frame work activity part.  The project will be implemented for consecutive six months with the total budget of 160,000 USD.
