2018/21 HUM Innovation Three innovation projects are planned for 2018-21 under lot HUM. One is the partnership with CAFOD on our joint strategy-driven and sustaining innovation pilot towards developing capacities of local partners as first responders (CADEV in Niger and KMSS in Myanmar) in line with the Grand Bargain work stream #2 on localisation and Caritas Denmark’s commitments towards C4C and the Core Humanitarian Standards (CHS). Results from this pilot are starting to show when the local partners in Myanmar managed to be first humanitarian responder during the recent floods in Myanmar, applying some of the tools and methods they had required through the pilot. The second pilot is opportunity-driven and disruptive innovation implemented with the newly established Danish engineer company researching in solar power solutions, Pesitho, and Engineering students from the Aarhus University (taking lead on the learning component). Pesitho has developed a clean solar-powered multipurpose kitchen prototype, the ECOCA, which provides a potential solution to the deforestation taking place around many refugee settings. Starting in 2018, Caritas Denmark is testing the prototype in two refugee/IDP settings in Uganda and Myanmar. During the test, 100 households will receive an ECOCA, whereby the risk of pollution by kitchen smoke and the burden of collecting firewood will be lifted, including a reduction of risks of violent and sexual assaults for women and children fetching firewood. Besides being a cooking device, the ECOCA is equipped with LED lights and output for other electrical devices. This allows for after sundown activities and income generating activities based on electricity, such as mobile-charging, hairdressing etc. During the pilot, behavioural changes of the beneficiaries will be studied and a learning component included. Depending on the test outcome, it is envisaged in 2019 under Lot CIV to demonstrate an optimized version of the unit for a larger scale of actors, incl. exploration of options for local production. By late 2018, another opportunity-driven and disruptive pilot is in the pipeline. This involves the testing of the instruction manual of the “Solar Sack”. The Solar Sack is a low-cost container that can purify four litres of water, chemical-free, in four hours using the technique of solar pasteurization. This is an alternative to boiling water, which removes the need for wood fuel to boil water. In 2019, Caritas Denmark plans to test the behavioral patterns related to the usage of the Solar Sack, once the instruction manual has become final. This will establish possible needs for alteration of the design as well as the user willingness to pay for the product. Later the same year, pending the findings on this study, a third phase is scheduled on the Solar Sack collaboration.
2017 2018 Single grant: South Sudan Crisis - Response in Uganda South Sudan has been war-torn by civil strife since 2013 following the failed coup attempt by Riek Machar. In July 2016, violent conflict escalated drastically, leading to massive forced displacements and disrupted agricultural activities. This in combination with drought has exhausted many families’ means of survival, bringing South Sudan into an acute food crisis. Famine was formally declared in February 2017 by the UN adding to the mass influx of South Sudanese refugees into the neighbouring countries. The average daily influx of South Sudanese refugees into Uganda has since July 2016 been approx. 2,100 refugees , peaking in February 2017 with about 6,700 daily new arrivals. Through Caritas Uganda, Caritas Denmark supports Caritas Aruas livelihood aid to South Sudanese refugees in zone 4 of the Bidibidi Refugee Settlement in Northern Uganda. The project includes both a conflict prevention component, environmental protection, and in line with national legislation commits 30% to the host communities. Enhanced food security and livelihoods through food production and non-agricultural income generation in and around the Bidibidi Refugee Settlement
2019 Single Grant, Improving the living conditions of the forcibly displaced Rohingya families in Bangladesh HX-01-2018 In cooperation with Caritas Bangladesh, Caritas Denmark is providing humanitarian aid to some of the most vulnerable Rohingya refugees in Kutupalong Camp, Cox’s Bazar, Bangladesh. The targeted 11,575 households / 57,875 individuals will benefit from improved shelter, camp site maintenance, improved water supply and night time lighting from solar street lamps.
2018/21 CIVUG CAPCA Program Management Committee In Uganda, Caritas Denmark has worked with five local partners since 2001 with MFA funding. The engagement during 2018-2021 amounts to DKK 36.8 million and will enhance sustainable rural development, through strengthening farmers’ associations and advocacy at national level. This will be facilitated through a network of Ugandan CBOs/NGOs, led by Caritas Uganda, supported by Caritas Denmark. In the years to come, with a humanitarian-development nexus approach more emphasis will be placed on climate change mitigation to reduce the effect on rural livelihoods and threat to the development of farmers associations. Interventions will strengthen the resilience of local communities in cooperation with relevant local authorities, including ensuring the participation of civil society in local development planning. The growing number of unemployed youth is a cause for concern in Uganda, as they tend to migrate to the urban city centres where they become part of the growing number of urban poor. Caritas Denmark and partners will apply innovative ways of including youth in economic development based on previous pilot activities and evidence-based information gathered from target group feedback. The retention of youth in rural areas is key for the labour intensive sustainable agricultural practices required to adapt to the changing climate.
2017 Malian Crisis Response Programme in Niger The programme has two prongs to support the overall objective: Food security: adapted farming methods, crops and seeds to increase rain fed food production while mitigating climate changes, strengthened rice production, and access to safe water and sanitation to ensure hygiene related to food preparation. Wells and family latrines will be constructed to enhance hygiene. Economic development at household level/livelihood: production groups created by refugees and host communities aiming at animal husbandry and food processing and transformation for market sale, as well as income generating activities for young people. 4% of the budget is earmarked for partner's administration costs. To contribute to food security and the development of economic revenues for greater self-sufficiency of Malian refugees and host communities in Ayorou in Niger
2018/21 CIVIN Tezpur Social Service Society (TSSS) Caritas Denmark’s support to India is geographically focused to the isolated region of North East India, bordering Myanmar, China, Bhutan and Bangladesh. Caritas Denmark has worked with five partners in this region since 1999. The programme has been one of Caritas Denmark’s most successful, where in 2015 the target groups managed to fundraise more funds locally than those received from Caritas Denmark. An exit strategy for the end of 2018 has therefore been underway over the past three years. The programme will be consolidated with a 2018 budget of DKK 1.8 million. The programme has demonstrated positive impact in improving the livelihoods of the rural farmers in North East India and the programme is assessed to be sustainable. Funds for the on-going activities are secured by tapping into Indian government development funds. The focus of the exit phase is to consolidate the already-made changes, especially those of the federations, which are key to support self-help groups in gaining sustainability. These self-help groups have been supported to start up community loan groups and strengthen the marketing of their agricultural produce. This is done through value-chain activities and the establishment of a marketing association, serving farmers in the region. At the same time, the farmers have received training in business development to allow them to access both the national market as well as the international market.
2018/21 HUMJO Management Cost Building on its long-standing partnership with Caritas Jordan and in line with the rolling three-year Jordan Response Plan spearheaded and coordinated by the Government of Jordan, Caritas Denmark will continue to address the needs of vulnerable Syrian refugees and Jordanians with a four-year budget of DKK 26.5 million. This will include ensuring access to, and provision of, health care services through Caritas Jordan’s primary health care centres and referrals to partner hospitals and facilities. Caritas will continue to provide pre- and post-natal health care services, support and information to expectant mothers to ensure a healthy pregnancy, labour and delivery for mother and child. Caritas Jordan will also continue to inform and support patients at risk of, or with non-communicable diseases (NCDs), such as diabetes, cardiovascular diseases and chronic respiratory diseases, thereby reducing the risk of premature death, secondary disease complications and/or disabilities, and through this enhancing patient prospects for employment opportunities.

2018/21 HUMNI Management Cost Caritas Denmark will continue to be engaged in the Malian displacement crisis, which started in 2012 and has now become a protracted crisis for thousands of refugees fleeing the violent conflict in Mali into western Niger. The majority of the Malian refugees live in camps, while others opt to reside with the host populations outside the camps. It is these refugees living outside the camps in Ayorou and their host communities that Caritas Denmark through Caritas Niger will continue to support with livelihood activities via a humanitarian-development nexus approach during 2018-2021 with a budget of DKK 10 million over four years. In addition, extremely vulnerable IDPs will be included in the engagement during 2019-2021. The main objective is to strengthen self-reliance and reduce vulnerability of both Malian refugees, IDPs and their host community in Ayorou to support a sustainable integration process. The main emphasis lies within three sectors of intervention: food security, water and sanitation, and income generation. Separate income generating initiatives will be targeting the youth.

2017 Single grant: Syria Crisis – Response in Jordan There are 1.265 million Syrians now living in Jordan, constituting 13.2% of the total population of the country. Of these, 655,344 were registered as refugees with UNHCR at 31 December 2016. 78.5 % of registered Syrian refugees in Jordan (514,274 persons) reside in urban settings, with the highest concentrations of refugees in Amman (180,026 persons) and the northern governorates of Irbid (136,496 persons) and Mafraq (79,188 persons). 90% of registered Syrian refugees in urban areas in Jordan live below the national poverty line, while over 67% of families are living in debt. Syrian refugees in Jordan are becoming more vulnerable as they struggle to meet their basic daily needs. Negative coping mechanisms are increasing health vulnerability, while the capacity of the Jordanian public health service is unable to keep abreast of needs. The programme will focus on the provision of primary and secondary health care services, maternal and neo-natal health care and Non-Communicable Disease (NCD) management and information through Caritas Jordan’s network of primary health care clinics and secondary health care referral partners. The project will target vulnerable Syrian refugees and Jordanians who are ineligible or cannot afford to pay for health care services at public health facilities. The project will contribute to the coordinated Government-led Jordanian Response Plan for the Syria Crisis through the provision of health services and information to 12,886 persons. 5% of the budget is earmarked for partner's administration costs. The overall objective is to improve the health status of Syrian refugees and Jordanian host communities by contributing to meeting their humanitarian health needs. Specific Objective (Outcome) 1: Increased equitable access, uptake and quality of primary health care. Specific Objective (Outcome) 2: Increased equitable access, uptake and quality of secondary health care. Specific Objective (Outcome 3): Increased access, uptake and quality of maternal and neo-natal health care services and information. Specific Objective (Outcome 4): Improved management of non-communicable diseases and information. Specific Objective (Outcome 5) – Improved health programming by CJ staff.
