Provision of critical life-saving assistance to most acutely vulnerable groups affected by the severe drought in Somali and Oromia regions, and to vulnerable IDPs, returnees, and host communities most at risk due to the escalating conflict in Benishangul Gumuz, Oromia, and Somali regions. The proposal seeks to provide lifesaving health assistance to most acutely vulnerable groups, including IDPs, returnees and host communities, who have been affected by drought in Somali and Oromia regions and that are most at risk due to the potential escalation of the conflict in Benishangul Gumuz, Oromia and Somali Region. 
The proposal aims at reducing morbidity and mortality in the above-mentioned regions by a) providing essential health supplies and kits to health facilities and mobile clinics b) strengthening the response against severe acute malnutrition (SAM) through the enhancement of capacities and skills of the local work force in identifying, treating and managing severe SAM cases c) reinforcing the infection, prevention and control (IPC) related capacities and skills to cope with and manage outbreaks, including COVID 19 and d) broadening the availability of GBS and MHPSS services. 
WHO will coordinate the implementation of the project activities and harmonize/coordinate partners’ activities through the health cluster to ensure maximum benefits to the targeted populations including IDPs and host communities. Within the framework of the cluster, WHO will consult and facilitate the coordinated actions for health stakeholders including FMoH, EPHI, local authorities, national and international NGOs, and UN agencies and share information on the ongoing activities, identify and take action over unmet health needs and challenges in implementation as well as providing a mechanism for emergency response
Emergency Protection Response in Haro Limu Woreda of East Wollega Zone of Oromia region and Kamashi town, Kamashi zone, Benishangul Gumuz, Ethiopia. Fayyaa Integrated Development Organization (FIDO) is proposing emergency response for IDPs in Haro limu woredas, East wollega zone in Oromia region and Kamashi woreda, Kamashi Zone, Benishangul Gumuz region, Ethiopia to address the critical protection needs of those displaced vulnerable individuals using EHF 2021 2nd round allocation fund. 

The Multi-sectoral Desk Review of Humanitarian Situation report for Wollega and Kamashi zones by December 2021 showed that there are greater than 200k IDPs in Wollegas , of which around 150 k is in East Wollega and more than 100k IDPs in Kamashi who require critical humanitarian assistance. These displacements are due to the intercommunal conflict in the regions which result in fear and protection issues such as family separation, GBV, freedom of movement, HLP-lack of access to agricultural land, lack of access to basic services: food, water, and sanitation, health, and nutrition, shelter, non-food items. The high prevalence of CP/GBV cases is the main protection concern in these areas as most of these survivors are not able to access services due to accessibility issues coupled with the limited presence of CP-GBV partners.

As part of protection response, FIDO plans to work towards creating community awareness on CP/GBV, conduct awareness creation on positive coping mechanisms to enhance IDPS physical and mental health, Improving child protection case management systems including family tracing and reunification. Access will also be created to MHPSS and preventive intervention and protection response to improve resilience to gender-based violence (GBV). The project will also facilitate capacity building of woreda WoCYA, Social and Labor Affairs, and other responsible stakeholders and IDPs to identify, prevent and respond to CP/GBV cases. FIDO is also planning to create a transparent platform to address crosscutting issues such as accountability to the affected population (AAP). COVID-19 awareness creation will also be integrated with the project activities to prevent infection and the spread of the virus.
Emergency Health Response in North Showa (Ataye and Efratan Gidem), Amhara Region, and two Woredas (Ewa and Chifra) in Afar Region of Ethiopia Health-care services in conflict affected woredas of Amhara and Afar regions are alarmingly limited, leaving hundreds of thousands of people, including those who are chronically ill and others who were injured during the fighting, without adequate access to essential medicines and basic services. Health centers and Health posts urgently need more medical supplies, drugs and equipment, according to the report from the regional governments. Hence GOAL is planning to support the health system to increase access to health care service for vulnerable populations in conflict affected woredas of both regions.

Emergency Shelter NFI response for IDPs and host communities living in Kiremu Woreda, East Wolega zone, Oromia Region. The existing humanitarian crises related to the persistent displacement of people in to West and East Wellega Zone of Oromia region has resulted recurrent displacements, which leads to insecurity, access constraints, and socio-economic downturns in West and East Wellega Zone. Currently, 20,809 HH or 127,787 individuals in both East and West Wellega remain displaced in different Woredas, towns and kebeles dispersed in the host community either hosting with the relatives, renting houses or living in temporary substandard local material built shelters with the support of the host community. According to Inter agency multi sectoral assessment conducted in West and East Wollega as well as Kamashi zone in August 2021, Shelter and NFI was one of the priorities reported among both the secondary and the new crisis-driven displaced persons, IDPs are living in a congested situation with 4 to 6 HH in one shelter. Rental houses are not affordable for many of them since they do not have means of income. Moreover, the impact of COVID-19 has become an additional burden for families in their struggle for survival.

This project proposal is developed with an objective of providing life-saving emergency shelter services to the conflict affected peoples in Kiremu Woreda of East wollega zone through provision of timely and appropriate cash for rent assistance and ensure that conflict affected peoples have adequate protection, safety, dignity, well-being and equitable access to the shelter solution. Hence, World Vision Ethiopia (WVE) in partnership with Action for the Needy in Ethiopia (ANE) will respond to the emergency shelter and NFI need of the IDP in Kiremu Woreda of East wollega Zone.

Accordingly, the proposed emergency shelter and NFI intervention is aimed at addressing  conflict-induced displaced community in Kiremu Woreda of East wollega Zone. The project will be implemented for 6 month with a total budget of $ 280,000.
Ethiopia Tigray Emergency Agriculture Response Project (ET-EARP) The project aims to contribute to the rehabilitation of livelihoods of 7,000 households to pre-conflict levels through the distribution of seeds and fertilizers for use in the upcoming primary cropping season locally called meher (June-September). This intervention is expected to reduce the need for emergency food assistance starting from the next harvest season around the end of 2021. FH will target only 57% (7,000) households in two (Naeder and Tahetay Maichew) of the 36 FAO-prioritized Woredas in Tigray affected by conflict and other natural hazards. These two Woredas are located in the central zone of Tigray, where FH has an ongoing USAID-funded JEOP food aid program. 

FH will provide 100.625 MT of meher crop seeds (in-kind support of 13.125 MT of improved teff variety and 87.5 MT of improved chickpea),  and 175 MT of chemical fertilizers (urea and NPS). FH will implement the project in partnership with the interim administration at the Woreda, Zone and Regional levels and in coordination with other humanitarian actors and ECC (Emergency Coordination Center). FH’s ongoing emergency food assistance projects in these Woredas and the established offices and connections with the local administration and target communities, and the long established relationship with federal and regional seed enterprises, and transport companies are expected to provide significant leverage for the successful implementation of this project.

FH’s staff in these locations will manage the interventions using existing project offices, facilities and charge a proportional amount to this project. Additional full-time staff will be hired for technical support, and to distribute the seeds and fertilizers.
This proposed project will complement the ongoing USAID/BHA funded emergency food assistance project (JEOP) through CRS Ethiopia. It will help maintain the gains of the immediate food assistance by rehabilitating the food production to the pre-conflict levels to prevent further deterioration of the food insecurity situation.

The total proposed budget requested from UNOCHA is US$ 350,002.45.
Strengthening management of severe acute malnutrition with medical complication in Tigray, Amhara and Afar in response to the Northern Ethiopia Humanitarian crisis Thousands of children under five are at high risk of acute malnutrition  in Tigray, Amhara and Afar regions due to the nine months long conflict in Northern Ethiopia.  The high risk of acute malnutrition is attributed to high levels of food insecurity, internal displacement, disrupted health system to provide essential health care services such as immunization, treatment of common childhood diseases and poor water, hygiene and sanitation conditions. Acute malnutrition is associated with nearly 45% mortality among under fives thus timely identification and treatment of affected children is critical to saving lives in this emergency response. 

A recent DTM assessment showed in Tigray: 1.92 million IDPs, Afar: 49,643 IDPs, Amhara: 22,305 IDPs as a result of the Northern Ethiopia crisis. according to the Humanitarian response plan for Northern Ethiopia, the Nutrition Cluster is targeting 1.4 million children under the age of 5 and PLW with preventative intervention such as Vitamin A supplementation and infant and young child feeding (IYCF), as well as treatment of moderate and severe acute malnutrition. Weekly Nutrition surveillance data shows a greater than 50% increase in the cases of children admitted with severe acute malnutrition in Tigray, Afar and Amhara regions. The management of severe acute malnutrition is divided into two categories namely outpatient therapeutic program (OTP) for children with severe acute malnutrition without medical complications and In-patient therapeutic care (ITC)/stabilization centers for children with severe acute malnutrition with medical complications. The treatment comprises of provision of therapeutic feeds, treatment of underlying medical conditions and micronutrient supplementation. 

Recent assessments of stabilization centers in Tigray, Afar and Amhara revealed the the lack of healthcare staff, lack of staff trained on management of acute malnutrition, insufficient essential nutrition supplies (RUTF, F-100, F-75, RUSF) and a disruption of referral system. Given the critical condition of children with severe acute malnutrition with medical complications, it is essential to have trained health care workers to support the case management of affected children. 
Therefore, the project will support and strengthen the regional, zonal and woreda health bureaus’ capacity to manage cases of severe acute malnutrition with medical complications in line with the revised national guideline for management of acute malnutrition in emergency prone areas and improve quality of care for children hospitalized for SAM with medical complications in the referral level stabilization centers in Tigray, Amhara and Afar regions affected by IDPs.

Improving health and psychosocial support in Tigray region of Ethiopia This project aims to reduce morbidity and mortality in four health catchment areas within the Tigray region of Ethiopia through the implementation of four additional mobile health clinics that will provide basic primary care, mental health/psychosocial counseling services, and clinical management of rape (CMR). The project will also promote behavior change on key health topics including cholera prevention, COVID prevention, and malaria prevention.
Emergency Nutrition Response in Conflict Affected Woredas of Afar and Amhara Ethiopia is currently confronted with multiple and complex emergencies with significant negative consequences on the livelihoods and nutritional status of communities, specifically of children and women in affected areas. This is evidenced by the increasing trend of children with Severe Acute Malnutrition (SAM) admitted for treatment across the country. Between January and June 2021, a total of 244,969 children with SAM were admitted for treatment. This is a 25 per cent increment compared to the same period last year. 

The ongoing Norther Ethiopia crisis has further increased the humanitarian requirement, resulting from large displacements, disruption of basic services and lack of access. As such, this project aims to contribute to the reduction of mortality and morbidity related to malnutrition through ensuring the availability of adequate ready-to-use therapeutic food (RUTF) for the treatment of SAM. 

UNICEF, the sole procurer of RUTF in Ethiopia, is currently facing a pipeline gap to reach all children with SAM targeted for treatment in 2021. Therefore, funding through the Ethiopia Humanitarian Fund (EHF) will contribute to ensuring a healthy pipeline at national level, through the procurement of 8,838 cartons of RUTF. This will enable UNICEF to meet the increased need in Amhara, Afar, Tigray and other parts of the country.
