OCHA Field activities, Haiti OCHA Field activities, Haiti OCHA established a presence in Haiti in 2004 after Hurricane Jeanne. In 2020, OCHA has an office in Port-au-Prince to cover the entire country. In a context of recurrent natural disasters, economic fragility and sociopolitical tensions, successive shocks and structural weaknesses have accentuated the vulnerabilities of a large part of the population and have further reduced the resilience of communities.  Under the direction of the Coordinator for Humanitarian Affairs, the OCHA office in Haiti, together with the Humanitarian Country Team (HCT) and sector groups, supports national authorities in responding to humanitarian situations and urgent needs, strengthening the same time the link between humanitarian assistance and development as a guiding principle. OCHA a établi une présence en Haïti en 2004 après l'ouragan Jeanne. En 2020, OCHA a ouvert un bureau à Port-au-Prince pour couvir tout le pays. Dans un contexte de catastrophes naturelles récurrentes, de fragilité économique et de tensions sociopolitiques, les chocs successifs et les faiblesses structurelles ont accentué les vulnérabilités d'une grande partie de la population et ont d'avantage réduit la résilience des communautés. Sous la direction du Coordonnateur des Affaires Humanitaires, le bureau OCHA en Haïti, en collaboration avec l'Ëquipe Humanitaire de Pays (HCT) et les groupes sectoriels, s'offre du soutient aux autorités nationales dans la réponse humanitaire et aux besoins les plus urgents en cas de desastre, renforçant en même temps le lien entre l'aide humanitaire et le développement, comme un principe directeur qui guide les lignes travail.
Improving Household Food Security for the most vulnerable families in herding and rural communities  affected by occupation practices in Area C of Nablus governorate through extend land use and support the agro-production capacities. The intervention aims to combat poverty, reduce food insecurity, and build resilience for 795 acutely vulnerable farming and herding households from 17 communities located in the Nablus governorate, particularly, prioritizing female-headed households to cope with prolonged food security threats and shocks including preventative measures to settler violence and  provision of inputs for capacity restoration of  agricultural productive assets. Further the intervention aims to fill the 2020 FS response gap and complements another project for MA’AN in FSS working in a pool of 56 communities by targeting additional 17 communities not addressed through the current project, nor through the proposed assistance of current projects for other partners. The proposed intervention also aims to combat the negative impact of the current pandemic on the livelihoods of vulnerable farmers through its tailored assistance and of inputs provision and prioritization of CFW modalities.
The intervention will achieve this through a multi- pronged approach to supporting the steadfastness, protection and resilience of vulnerable families livelihoods mainly through: (i) creation of project support committees to ensure transparency, accountability and engagement in the monitoring of the project and selection of beneficiaries. Particularly the CBPSCs will report on violence incidents and advise for timely and effective implementation ensuring “Do no harm” principles. (ii) Contribute to restoring and enhancing the productive capacity of 495 vulnerable and affected HHs by a) protecting and promoting their livelihood and assets through provision of input ( seeds and agricultural tools) for1650 donums of agricultural lands through restricted and conditional cash assistance modalities including CFW b) provision of protective inputs (fencing) for lands  c) promotion of technical capacities through technical trainings ( focus on females) and coordinated extension services. (d) Provision of food processing equipment to alleviate females burden during food production for 300 additional farming HHs.
Health under protection (HUP): Emergency health and nutrition assistance to people living in communities whose rights are inadequately protected in the West bank (WB) CARE/partners (Health Work Committees- HWC and Palestinian Medical Relief Society-PMRS will respond to this situation with a comprehensive intervention that combines elements of direct health service delivery to the identified vulnerable communities, with special focus on women and children, elderly, youth and people with disabilities, reporting and referral of GBV cases, injuries due to settlers and IF violence, and responding to the COVID 19 crisis through community awareness, etc. CARE will continue working with trained community representatives (focal points) and project staff to report/refer these violations using agreed upon mechanism.

The proposed intervention will be targeting 42 vulnerable communities in Area C in the West Bank that were identified by CARE/Partners/ MoH/ and the HNC during the recent HRP 2021. All identified locations have a serious access issues and lack any type of health services. The identified locations will be targeted through 4 mobile health clinics (10 health teams) that will be visiting these communities regularly to provide the health services per agreed upon program/plan with the HNC and MoH. The 44 locations are distributed as follow: 12 locations in Bethlehem Area, 11 locations in Hebron Area, 9 locations in north Jordan valley, and 12 Bedouin communities in Jerusalem and middle Jordan valley area.
CARE/partners (PMRS and HWC), in close coordination with MoH centrally and at the governorates’ level, will provide life-saving services in targeted communities in the WB through the use of mobile clinics/teams that offer basic curative and preventive Primary Health Care services (PHC), including women’s healthcare (ante and post-natal care, obstetric care, etc), general practice care (GP), health awareness with focus on communities needs and priorities like COVID 19 control, prevention and referrals, basic lab tests, home visits, children health and psychosocial support. The team will also be provided with emergency kits that enable them to respond to emergency incidents in these communities while working in the clinics to ensure lifesaving before transferring to the hospitals. Additionally, the teams will train selected community focal points (mainly females) on first aid and provide them with 1st Aid kits to better respond to the emergencies in their communities.

The project is designed in fully coordination with other actors mainly Ministry of Health where CARE/partners and MOH teams identified the locations to ensure best utilization of the available resources and avoid overlapping or duplication
Responding to the urgent health needs due to COVID-19 Pandemic in Gaza. This project comes as part of the second standard allocation of the oPt’s HF fast track process to address the urgent needs of the health sector in Gaza. While the incidence rates for COVID-19 were very low in Gaza due to the strict lockdown that has been imposed by MoI and MoH on returnees the pandemic broke in the community as anticipated by health professionals since February/March when the pandemic was announced. Not to dwell much on figures (as these will be explained further in the needs assessment section) but Gaza is now suffering from a COVID-19 community outbreak. Taking the characteristics of the place, the socio-economic status of the people and the political map in the region the crisis hit Gaza hard. This all adds up to the fact that the health system has been deteriorating since more than 13 years now. 
The MoH and the health cluster have identified many needs to respond to the COVID-19 pandemic and MOH has activated the highest level of its emergency response (level D – code Red). As such, the needs to respond effectively are growing as of the minute of writing this proposal. The health and nutrition cluster (HNC) is anticipating that there are needs of more than 31.3 million USD to respond to the COVID-19 pandemic in oPt. This project will be part of the overall coordinated response with the MoH, HNC and other organisations to respond to the most urgent health needs that are currently surfacing in relation to COVID-19 case-management through the provision of drugs for ICU COVID-19 patients, disposables, PPEs and lab materials.

This project will fall under HRP Strategic Objective #3: The capacity of vulnerable Palestinians to cope with, and overcome, a protracted crisis, including from environmental threats, is supported, while solutions to violations and other root causes of threats and shocks are pursued.
Will also fall under Health Cluster objective #1: Stop transmission and prevent the spread of COVID-19
And falls under the second allocation’s objective #1: support the implementation of the COVID-19 Response Plan.
Emergency response to communities and households affected by the floods in Jabalia, North Gaza AAH is proposing a 6-month stormwater flood emergency response and mitigation measures that consist in rehabilitating stormwater and wastewater drainage networks, conducting electro-mechanical repair works for the existing wastewater pump station and supporting vulnerable affected households with IEC material to improve their knowledge and practices to live in safe and healthy places. This is to avoid generating polluted water (mixing stormwater with wastewater) in one high risk area facing recurring floods (Saftawi area) within Jabalia city. The proposed activities aim to protect directly about 70,000 individuals living in the targeted area and about 100,000 individuals indirectly, allowing the beneficiaries to go about their business safely during the rainy season and the rest of the year. This project also targets persons with disability (PWDs). It is estimated that 1,267 PWDs live in the affected area and are even more impacted by recurring floods reducing further their mobility
The proposed measures were identified by the key WASH actors in the Gaza Strip, namely the Palestinian Water Authority (PWA), the Coastal Municipalities Water Utility (CMWU), Municipality of Jabalia (MoJ), the WASH cluster area focal point and AAH, as an emergency response in line with the HRP 2020 objectives. The project will support the service providers to improve their stormwater management capacity to better protect people and their assets from floods and more generally from health risks resulting from wastewater and stormwater getting mixed throughout the year.
In addition, AAH will support vulnerable households through hygiene promotion awareness, developing and distributing Information, Education and Communication material to flood-affected families. This will improve household’s living conditions and contribute to protect household members from health risks in flood prone areas.
Strengthening community-based preparedness and emergency response in the Middle Area, Khan Younis and Rafah governorates The proposed intervention aims to strengthen community-based preparedness and emergency response in the Middle Area, Khan Younis and Rafah governorates. As such, the project is fully aligned with the Shelter/NFI Cluster Objective 3: “Capacity to respond to natural or manmade hazards in a timely, efficient and effective manner is increased,” itself feeding into Strategic Objective 3 of the HRP, “The capacity of vulnerable Palestinians to cope with, and overcome, a protracted crisis, including from environmental threats, is supported, while solutions to violations and other root causes of threats and shocks are pursued.”

In a context of exacerbated political tensions, intensified by the difficulties to contain the COVID-19 pandemic’s spread in Gaza, efforts to build communities’ preparedness and increased prepositioning of NFIs are paramount to ensure rapid and safe access to emergency assistance for the most vulnerable groups, in particular women, children, people with disabilities and the elderly. 

In order to continue increasing communities’ preparedness and emergency response capacity, ACTED will establish, train and further build the capacity of one new and one existing Community Emergency Response Networks (CERNs) in the Middle Area, Khan Younis, and Rafah governorates, which are historically the most affected by massive movements of population during emergencies, and where communities have limited knowledge of emergency mechanisms in place. 

ACTED will also increase its stockpiling capacity and geographic coverage by further prepositioning NFI kits in four warehouses located in the three target governorates, thus ensuring preparedness for future man-made and natural disasters while enabling immediate response to urgent COVID-19 needs as they arise. 
In addition, the action will deliver hygiene kits to 3000 vulnerable households in home quarantine or at higher risk of being affected by COVID-19 in Rafah, Middle Area and Khan Younis governorates

In total, the project will benefit 30,386 individuals. Two CERNs, composed of four Community-Based Organizations (CBOs), four Community-Based Protection Committees (CBPCs), and 130 volunteers (176 individuals in total), will be established and/or trained on community preparedness and emergency response 300 host households will be assessed to identify and address needs for future bouts of hosting IDPs 3000 HHs (representing 17,100 individuals) will benefited from COVID 19 hygiene kits and 5,200 NFI sets, expected to cover emergency needs for at least 2,000 households, representing 11,400 individuals, will be prepositioned in four existing and new warehouses across the Middle Area, Khan Younis and Rafah governorates.
Respond to COVID-19 pandemic in Gaza Strip The proposed intervention will aim to contribute to minimize the risk of Covid-19 transmission among the population in the Gaza strip and to ensure adequate and effective support in Covid-19 Health response. The project will work on two vital aspects, the first component is to help strengthen and ensure adequate distribution of medications needed to manage respiratory complications from Covid-19 and to cover the supply of mental health medications, in addition to the provision of personal protective equipment (PPE) for health workers working with Covid-19 patients. The second component it’s related to the remote provision of mental health care and psychosocial support to confirmed Covid-19 cases in a, ensuring confidentiality, and also communities awareness messages will be targeted through media campaigns to reduce the stigmatization and misconceptions in relation to Covid-19 .19. All the above-mentioned activities are in link with the PA National COVID-19 response Plan, Inter-Agency COVID plan, and the World Health Organization (WHO) and the Ministry of Health (MOH) priority needs.
Rapid response for the West Bank health-care waste management in response to COVID-19 outbreak The main purpose of this action is to  guarantee a proper management of health-care waste, avoiding wastes from being scattered indiscriminately around medical buildings and their grounds and reducing the likelihood of secondary infections. 
This action will therefore strengthen the government and humanitarian intervention by the following actionts: assessment of infectious waste handling, development of online technical training/SOP and establishment of an emergency centralized system for infectious waste collection and safe disposal according to WHO minimum requirements for the North area of the West Bank. The project will be implemented in Jenin, Tubas, Nablus, Tulkarem, Salfit and Qalqilya whereas the SOP will be available and spread in all West Bank
Preventing and mitigating protection risks to people in quarantine and affected by COVID-19 in Gaza The intervention will focus on the provision of protection tools and support services for men, women and children to address the multitude of needs emerging from and compounded by COVID-19. With the aim to strengthen resilience and coping strategies, build psychosocial wellbeing and reduce fear and stigma. The key components include:
 Hygiene/dignity kits
 Recreational kits for children
 Cash and Voucher Assistance (food and hygiene voucher) for highly vulnerable groups including GBV survivors, PwD and families/children who have been impacted by the loss of a breadwinner or caregiver due to COVID-19 movement restrictions / quarantine.
 Case management follow-up services divided geographically and coordinated through main service providers
 Training of quarantine shelter personnel in detection and referral of CP, GBV and MHPSS and to provide support/monitor progress during their stay in quarantine
Emergency Supplies of NFIs for the Vulnerable People at Higher Risk of COVID19 The project provides for the prevention of, and preparedness for the Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak through the provision of essential hygiene and disinfection materials and standard or customized NFIs and potable water to quarantine centers and vulnerable families. MA'AN will provide for adequate and gender sensitive response to address the needs of the most vulnerable families at higher risk of being affected by COVID-19. MA’AN capitalizes on its community-based emergency response structure. The proposed intervention should support MA'AN to replenish hygiene and dignity kits stockpiles to be positioned for emergency response, namely COVID-19 pandemic. Families and people at higher risk of being affected by COVID-19 should be supported with essential hygiene and disinfection materials. 1200 COVID 19 family hygiene and cleaning kits, enough for 1 month, will be positioned in advance to be provided for 1200 families including 2204 men, 2135 women, 2003 boys, and 2058 girls. A total of 6285 kits including 200 dignity kits (male/female children), 1000 dignity kits (female adults), 1000 hygiene kits (female adults), 1600 hygiene and dignity kits (male adults), 200 hygiene kits (children), 100 infant kits, and 2180 cleaning kits, will be prepared as stockpiles to serve 4236 individuals at quarantine facilities, including 2347 men, 1474 women, 220 boys, and 195 girls. The primary geographical target is the Northern Governorate and Gaza City. In coordination with the shelter cluster and the MoSD, MA'AN stocks will be available to address the emerging needs in the Middle Area and the Southern Governorates. In addition, MA'AN intervention includes to distribute quantities of potable water enough to meet the emerging needs of 1500 people in the quarantine facilities for twenty-one days. The potable water distribution will address the needs of the quarantine facilities in the five Governorates. The project applies community-based preparedness and emergency response mechanisms.
Extension of UNRWA Primary Healthcare Services to Non-Refugees to Alleviate the Pressure on the Public Health System in Gaza The global outbreak of COVID-19 is putting further pressure to the already overstretched health system in the Gaza Strip. While UNRWA continues to provide essential primary health care services to 1.4 million Palestine refugees in Gaza, this project aims to alleviate the pressure on the public health system by providing non-refugee population an access to UNRWA health services for primary health care needs. In case the further restriction of movement, such as curfew, is announced, the entire population in the Gaza Strip would still be able to call UNRWA health hotline for primary health needs. For mild cases, medical officers will provide advice via phone consultations. For life-saving cases, management plan will be developed and needed medicines will be prescribed. For Non-Communicable Disease (NCD) cases who need medications, UNRWA will document the cases as primary window to the services, but MoH would still be responsible for non-refugee case management as well as the delivery of medicines. Currently, some medicines are not available in MoH nor UNRWA stock, and those essential medicines will be procured under this project.
