3FM Serious Request 2010: HIV prevention & treatment in Rwanda The project seeks to improve the living conditions - and reducing the vulnerability - of vulnerable children in the Southern Province of Rwanda, and by doing so, reducing poverty in Rwanda. The main objectives are to strengthen the capacity of volunteers, pursue the financial autonomy of the beneficiaries, and to strengthen the capacities of the Rwandan Red Cross in project monitoring, evaluation and reporting. In Rwanda 20.5% of orphans and vulnerable children have lost one or both of their parents, 600 000 children do not attend secondary school and 100 000 do not attend primary school, 15 000 Rwandan children act as household heads. The vast majority of orphans and vulnerable children are affected by acute poverty. The number of orphans and vulnerable children under 15 years is estimated to have reached 1.5 million in 2010 and the number of orphans due to AIDS represents over 52% of the total number of orphans. In Rwanda, HIV/AIDS is one of the four main causes of death. Community awareness raising sessions will address issues such as hygiene in the household, reproductive health, malaria and AIDS prevention, children's rights, and nutrition. The volunteers are organized into groups: 150 nkundabana mothers, 30 peer educators, 30 health and hygiene volunteers, and 6 volunteers specialized in education, income generating activities, and monitoring. Orphans and vulnerable children will be provided social support by Red Cross volunteers and the project team. The most vulnerable of them will receive more intensive support, including financial support and vocational training. The project is a joint effort by the Rwandan Red Cross and the Belgian Red Cross. The community awareness raising sessions targets 2 400 members of the communities from the 6 targeted sectors. 216 volunteers will receive refresher training courses. The direct beneficiaries are 4 500 orphans and vulnerable children, of which 250-300 are affected by the disease. Because it is difficult to estimate the number of children who take care of family members affected by AIDS, the project supports all vulnerable children in the target area in order to prevent stigmatisation. The vulnerability of children in the Southern province of Rwanda is increased due to a number of them working in hard conditions, such as in quarries, tea plantations, as domestics or as child soldiers. Furthermore, they are exposed to poverty, malnutrition, and limited access to health care, education, drinking water and sanitation. E.g. many children travel several kilometres each day in order to draw drinking water.

Insurgency in Lake Chad basin in Niger This project assists 50,000 beneficiaries with emergency health, water, sanitation and hygiene promotion, and food security, nutrition and livelihoods support in Lake Chad basin in Niger. This is a revision of an existing operation in this area. This revision is largely due to the deterioration of the security situation in Diffa region and a resulting lack of access preventing the planned implementation resulting in some activities unachieved. This revision will enable the NRCS to address the initial and new unmet needs according to the current security situation in the new zone of intervention in Diffa and prioritizing the following sectors: health and care, water, sanitation, and hygiene promotion, food security, nutrition, and livelihoods, shelter and household items, and National Society capacity building. Community volunteers have been trained and provided with materials and tools to facilitate community sensitization. Weekly mobile clinics have been organized in the islands to assist those who cannot access the health centres. Responding to the influx from Damassak to the Gagamari transitional camp, emergency support was provided in the form of water, hygiene and sanitation. Through the existing Niger Red Cross cooperation agreement with UNFPA, 1,096 hygiene kits were distributed to 1,096 households after sensitising them on health reproductive. Sensitization sessions reached 5,558 people from the islands. Between November 2014 and end January 2015, 6 mobile clinics have been organized and 5,630 persons were provided with medical treatment. According to the Red Cross Diffa branch, 16,000 people located in Gagamari transit camp and Chetimari host villages benefited from awareness and sanitation activities. Overall, 21,558 people from the islands and Gamamari transit camp have been sensitized. These activities took place until 6 February when Diffa was attacked and the population fled to secured areas. For food assistance, from October 2014, the National Society distributed food rations on a monthly basis to some 25,000 people. All activities concentrate on the Baroua and Gagamari zones.

Conflict in Syria: general support The Syrian Arab Red Crescent works to respond to the needs of the most vulnerable people affected by the Syrian crisis, including food and non-food aid, health, livelihoods and food security, and building capacity to more effectively respond to the needs of those affected by conflict. Often, Red Cross staff and volunteers operate in risky and life-threatening conditions. Since 2011, the unrest in Syrian has grown, with violence spreading throughout the country. It is estimated that 12.2 million people within Syria need humanitarian assistance, with more than half the pre-crisis population being displaced internally and or as refugees in neighbouring countries. Often, Syrians are displaced multiple times. Four out of five Syrians are living in poverty, and two-thirds live in extreme poverty. Every aspect of life is affected, and there are overloads in basic health care services and decreased access to food and water. The on-going crisis in Syria presents many challenges to those living in its borders, from food, to shelter, to health. 600,000 people have been reached with food distributions, and 175,000 people in 2015 (January-July) have received winterisation support, with 35,000 families receiving items to prepare them for the winter, such as blankets, mats, and mattresses. The Netherlands Red Cross contributes to efforts with food parcels, winterisation items, and hygiene kits. 106,000 people have accessed improved water. Those in need of medical care are supported by mobile health units and health points in clinics, the latter of which are critical for rural areas. During the first four months of 2015, the Syrian Arab Red Crescent facilities provided treatment and consultations to 187,000 people. This project assists those affected by the on-going crisis in Syria. This project operates throughout the country, having current activities in the following governorates: Quneitra, Rural Damascus: Homs, Al-Hasakeh, Idleb, Hama, and Tartous.

Partners for Resilience: Guatemala The project aims to reduce the impact of natural hazards on vulnerable community members. It increases the resilience of communities to disasters, climate change and environmental degradation. The project also increases the capacity of civil society organisations (CSO's) to cope with these natural hazards. In Guatemala fifty-one percent of the population have an income of less than US$ 2 per day. These poor populations face chronic food insecurity and lack access to drinking water. Moreover, the Central America region is a multi-hazard prone area, and especially Guatamale is more vulnerable as it deals with heavy rainfall and is regularly affected by floods and hurricanes. The intensity and frequency of climatic events affects ecosystems and thus, livelihoods. Public spending unfortunately does not adequately respond to the needs of local communities, and the development policies do not foster resilience and sustainability, leaving the poorest of the population in a dire situation. The project improves the livelihoods of the vulnerable communities by improving agricultural practices, health serives and water avalabilty. Furthermore community resilience will be strengthened by introducing an intergrated approach to natural hazards, as the capacity of CSO's are improved, disaster risk reduction plans and policies will be developed according to community needs. The target group is the most vulnerable population in the drought zone in the river basin of the Motagua river and other rivers with a special attention to indigeonous people, youth and the elderly.The programme will reach between 750,000 - 1,000,000 world wide, it is organized by the 'Partners For Resilience', which The Netherlands Red Cross is a member of. Other partners include CARE Nederland, Cordaid, Wetlands International and The Red Cross. The areas in the drought zone that will be targeted are, Inzabal, Zacapa,Chiquimula, Jalapa, Solola, Quiche.

PROPOSAL BEING UPDATED AND REVIEWED. NOW WILL INCLUDE JUBA. THE INFORMATION HERE WILL BE EXPANDED. Violence in South Sudan between government and opposition forces has created a complex humanitarian crisis. Large numbers are fleeing Sudan to Ethiopia because of conflict as well as food insecurity, human rights abuses, and lack of basic services in thei The project strategy lies on the construction and support to 2 Maternity Waiting homes for Pregnant women and building the capacity of local Traditional Birth Attendants. The strengthening of the health systems will also be achieved through the support to 4 primary health care centers. The strategy targets 400,000 people in crisis-affected states, of which 80 per cent are women and girls. The implementing partner of the project is the South Sudan Red Cross working in close cooperation with the Netherlands Red Cross. The funds for this project were raised by an annual campaign in collaboration with the Dutch public radio 3FM. Central Equatoria is considered a relatively stable area but inter-communal conflicts generate violence (including sexual and gender based violence), the project will be implemented here. Specific locations include, Yai county (Tore Payam) and Terekeka County.
Strengthening institutional Disaster Preparedness and community level Epidemic Preparedness in Western Region, Uganda The Action will strengthen the capacities of District Disaster Management Committees, District Task Forces and their local structures to establish well-functioning multi-hazard preparedness and response systems to ensure Early Warning and Early Action. There is a clear need to strengthen DRM in Uganda to address the multiplicity of crises including epidemics, new refugee influxes and natural hazards. The most common and frequent hazards include floods, landslides, drought, earthquakes,
hailstorms and windstorms. Since 2017, Uganda has experienced an influx of refugees from South Sudan and DRC and is now hosting 1,4 million refugees. In the coming time UNHCR predicts a large influx of refugees into the country. The scale of the refugee crisis continues to overwhelm national and local capacities. Active cross border movement combined with porous borders increases the risk of importation of epidemics (e.g. EVD). Besides, communities are often affected by Cholera, Typhoid Fever, Malaria and Diarrhoea. The COVID-19 global pandemic is widespread and is strongly impacting the health system, economy, livelihoods and protection. 1. Enhance district level capacities by providing support in the development and operationalization of multi-hazard district contingency plans, improving EW systems and enhancing surge capacity.
2. Integrate Forecast-based Action into DCPs
3. Strengthen community-level epidemic preparedness by enhancing surveillance and referral systems to ensure early detection and response regarding diseases / events of public health concern.
4. Advocate for a National Disaster Preparedness and Management Law that incorporates anticipatory funding principles.
5. Ensure protection mainstreaming in all elements by enhancing responders' capacity on protection and accountability towards the population and the adaptation of protection into EW/EA mechanism. 11,864 local populations in the area.

3FM Serious Request 2013: Reducing child mortality due to diarrhoea in CAR The objective is to rehabilitate water points through redeployment of skilled craftsmen to repair manually-operated water pumps and wells, and hygiene promotion in rural prefectures. This project is integrated in a larger ICRC-project. The landlocked Central African Republic has been undergoing a political and military crisis since December 2012, when rebel coalitions clashed with government forces over the former's failure to honour signed peace agreements. The economic and social impact of this crisis have severely affected the access to drinking water for the population in rural areas, particularly those where humanitarian access has been limited due to such instability. The programme seeks to repair wells and water pumps through enabling networks of repairmen with the skills and equipment to complete these tasks. Additionally, the programme reaches local communities through good hygiene promotion. Since water distribution infrastructure improvement is at the centre of the programme, repair workers are targeted in order to improved communities' access to water. Also at the community-level, good hygiene promotion focuses on reaching individuals to improve the uptake of good hygiene practices. The project takes place in rural areas where humanitarian access has been limited due to instability. Specifically, the project works in the following prefectures: Kadei Mambere, Nana Mambere, Ouham Pende, Ouham, Nana Gribizi, Ouaka, Haute Kotto, and Bamingui Bangora. Several villages in these areas were attacked by armed elements present in different areas, causing waves of displacement.
Dutch Surge support for Emergency water, sanitation and hygiene The Dutch Surge Support (DSS) sends Dutch water and sanitation experts to water-related disasters around the world to contribute to better international response and increased knowledge management in water-related disasters. A growing number of countries face severe water related issues caused by climate change, enveronmental degradation causing water stress, water scarcity and pollution. This has an impact on drinking water, food supplies, infrastucture and economic development, and on vulnerable ecosystems and the stability of societies. Safe drinking water is one of the most urgent needs in emergency situations and lack of clean water and sanitation leads to disease and child mortality and increase of the workload of vulnerability of women and girls in developing countries. Water scarcity is a potential source of conflict, while floods often cause serious damage and claim many victims. This project aims to create a Dutch facility for surge support related to water to support humanitian organisations working in water related emergency response by identification and secondment of specialist staff that can be deployed during humanitarian response to crisis. The facility will cover emergency water related fields when appropiate. Besides WASH and water management there will also be a particular focus on thos capacity gaps identified within the United Nations clusters, such as expertise in urban WASH, (complex) sanitation or hydrogeology. The DSS is an initiative started by the Dutch government, the Netherlands Red Cross, and the Dutch water sector. The facility shall draw upon expertise available in the Netherlands. It will also contribute to raise interest among Netherlands water sector partners. Experts will be deployed aroud the world in emergency situations.

Bangladesh - Cyclone Roanu (DREF) The overall objective of the operation is to support BDRCS to ensure that immediate humanitarian needs of 5,000 families affected by Cyclone Roanu in six most affected districts of Bangladesh are met through the provision of cash grants, emergency shelter, safe drinking water and water storage items. On 17 May 2016, Roanu originated from a low pressure area that formed south of Sri Lanka, and gradually drifted north towards the Indian states of Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh and Odisha and intensified into a cyclonic storm on 19 May. It further accelerated towards the coast of Bangladesh and reached its peak intensity with winds of 85 km/h (50 mph) and a minimum central pressure of 983 hPa (mbar; 29.03 inHg). On 21 May, Roanu made landfall near Chittagong, Bangladesh. It continued to move inland and weaken the next day. Cyclone Roanu – the first tropical cyclone of the annual cyclone season – has brought about strong winds and torrential rain to Sri Lanka, India and Bangladesh.
