Well prepared Red Cross/Red Crescent societies for disaster response: Chad The purpose of the response preparedness programme in Chad is for the Netherlands Red Cross and Chad Red Cross to strengthen the capacity of the Red Cross national society in Chad. Chad is affected by natural disasters, such as floods and draughts, epidemics, and refugee displacement from its neighbours such Libya and Sudan, and internal instabilities. Food insecurity further complicates response preparedness in Chad where governmental and local responses are limited due to capacity. Chad Red Cross also lacks the capacity to effectively handle disaster and emergency response, resulting in affected populations failing to receive adequate assistance, multiplying the effects of disasters. The Netherlands Red Cross and Chad Red Cross will engage response-preparedness issues in Chad by: improving the function of Chad Red Cross’ national and local response mechanisms, strategically positioning and logistically supporting Red Cross relief stocks in Chad, strengthening Chad Red Cross’ human resource capacities for disaster management, and improving Chad Red Cross ‘ disaster management plan. The programme targets Chad Red Cross staff, and families in disaster-prone regions. National Disaster Team (NDRT)and Branch Disaster Response Team (BDRT) will be trained, and training will be carried out in 2012 and be followed-up with yearly refresher trainings from 2013-2015. Chad Red Cross’ 5 Disaster Management (DM) staff will be augmented, with other staff receiving yearly refresher trainings. 4,000 families in the 7 most disaster-prone areas, and in N’Djamena, will also be targeted in the form strategically-placed relief kits. The programme in Chad is implemented throughout the country.

NLRC funding source: Block Grant 2018-2021 - Chronic Crises Yemen remains as the worst humanitarian crisis in the world according to international organizations including the UN. Most recent figures indicate a current estimate of 24.3 million people in need across the country, a slight increase from last year’s figure1, noting that the total population of Yemen is estimated at 30.5 million. This is mainly due to the prolonged and escalating armed conflict which has been accompanied in 2020 with natural disasters of heavy rains and floods in addition of the onset of COVID-19 in a country with collapsed health system and high rates of poverty, food insecurity and malnutrition.
According to WFP, there are 20.1 million people facing hunger in the absence of food assistance and 14.4 million need immediate assistance to sustain or save their lives. People in Food Crisis/Emergency (IPC phase 3+) reached 3,213,000 with 60% increase since 30 Apr 20202. Yemen

Rapid Prototyping Service The objective of this project is to change the 510 development team to a rapid prototyping team with a clear global service offering to the IFRC Network, and to initiate a first set of support projects to national societies. When the service is initiated and national societies are requesting the services, the cost-recovery model of 510 will ensure the sustainability of the initial investment from the IH extra projects fund. The IFRC Digital Strategy will bring an increasing amount of data and digital work in the humanitarian programs of national societies. However, embedding digital technology in humanitarian operations is a real challenge. NLRC-510 can help national societies identify their biggest opportunities to use data and digital (business value case mapping), to use a human centered design approach to collect user insights and use the development team technical knowledge to create a set of requirements for a solution. Based on the requirements our team can develop with the national society a rapid prototype that can be field tested and use on a small scale with aid workers and beneficiaries. With this user tested prototype the national society can work with 510 to implement the solution with one of their local or global IT and digital service providers and start a development or procurement of an operational platform. The handholding during this phase will increase the likelihood of national societies getting value out of their investments in data and digital technology. This service will help national societies to fast track their digital maturity, to prioritize the most valuable investments, and to do research and development properly, before using scarce resources to develop software or data science solutions.

Typhoons and Floods in the Philippines 2015 The Philippine Red Cross is mounting an operation to deliver humanitarian assistance to people affected by three weather-related events. The operation seeks to provide immediate and early recovery support to vulnerable households in the most affected provinces. The Philippines are recouping from the combined effects of Typhoon Melor (local name Nona), Tropical Depression Twenty Three (local name Onyok) and monsoon rains enhanced by the two tropical systems. As a result of the weather disturbances, which followed back-to-back within a week, there are significant humanitarian needs. This operation will address the livelihoods, health, relief, shelter, water, sanitation and preparedness and risk reduction
needs of affected communities, as well as addressing institutional preparedness/capacity development needs of PRC to
strengthen its level of preparedness for future disaster response. PRC will ensure to take into account gender and diversity, for example by targeting women-headed households, pregnant or lactating women, and men and boys made vulnerable by the disaster, who have been forced to migrate. These groups will be considered according to the level of impact and more priority will be given to those who have lost their houses. The humanitarian assistance targets up to 45,000 people (9,000 families) affected by the recent tropical
systems and floods. The projecct will aim on the three main islands – Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao.

Partners for Resilience: Kenya 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. Natural hazards have been increasing in frequency and severity, especially floods and droughts. These periods of intense droughts have caused severe crop losses, famine and population displacement. The increased variablity of precipitation expected in Kenya due to climate change will greatly impact health, as floods increase diarrhoeal and vector diseases while droughts result in poor personal hygiene. Communities in the Ewaso Nyiro North River basin are increasingly vulnerable to natural hazards as their livelihoods have weakened and environmetal damage continues to be inflicted on the ecosystem. The programme improves the livelihoods of the communities by supporting environmentally sustainable methods of pastoralism and restoring the ecosystem, and also developing community based disaster risk plans. Civil soceity organizations will be targeted to enhance their coordination and action in response to the natural hazards and enhance policies where required. The programme will target farmers relying on livestock and agriculture living on the downstream part of the Ewaso Nyiro North River Basin. These farmers move from place to place in search of water and pastures and their livelihoods depend fully on the availability of water from the river basin, which is regrettably decreasing. The implementing partners are The Kenya Red Cross Soceity, Wetlands International Kenya and other local NGO's. The project is organized by the 'Partners For Resilience', which The Netherlands Red Cross is a member of. The targeted communities live on the downstream part of the Ewaso Nyiro North River Basin in Northern Kenya.
