Lifesaving and Sustainable WASH Services to Crisis-affected Communities in Galkayo district (LISS) Project ltpgtThis proposed intervention has been designed to provide relief through emergency life-saving WASH services to vulnerable communities affected by multiple shocks in the Galkayo district. The project location and target population form part of the most distressed and high-priority areas earmarked for assistance through this allocation. The action lays more focus on remote populations and IDPs.ltbrgtltbrgtThe project targets ltbgt19,400 lt/bgtvulnerable women, girls, and boys spread in some 7 villages within the Galkayo district and aims to implement WASH interventions while integrating protection approaches (CP and GBV). The project's primary objective is to provide lifesaving relief to populations in distress by increasing access to WASH services. In doing so, the response will contribute to (a) decreasing the prevalence of acute malnutrition, and public health threats, and (b) minimizing further displacements by investing in hard-to-access rural locations where the majority of the displaced originate. At least 9% of targeted beneficiaries will be persons living with disabilities.ltbrgtltbrgtKey among the response package comprises, (a) rehabilitation of existing water supply infrastructure, and (b) water pipeline extension and connections targeting health facilities and IDP settlements, among others. On sanitation and hygiene, the action will rehabilitate sanitation facilities within 4 health facilities in the area, provide new culturally appropriate sanitation enabling facilities at IDP settlements, conduct a concerted hygiene promotion and sanitation campaigns, and provide vulnerable households with hygiene kits.ltbrgtltbrgtThe action places a lot of significance on capacity building and strengthening of the community groups and structures instrumental in the delivery of the project objectives (such as water management committees, hygiene promoters, and other community entities involved in the implementation of activities. Capacity building of the water management committees and hygiene promoters will also be central to this action. Besides their roles in service delivery, these entities will also be crucial in preventive health, which impacts public health.ltbrgtWhile enhancing the centrality of protection in its interventions —through PSEA and GBV awareness—, the action will also ensure inclusivity (with deliberately designed infrastructure and support for PwDs and empower women and girls into leadership and participation in project activities. The project will also be coordinated through established structures and will strive to ensure synergy and complementarity with other interventions going on in the area.lt/pgt

Provide lifesaving nutrition support to communities in Baidoa rural arrears affected by climatic shocks which have resulted to severe nutrition gaps and displacements ltpgtSomalia is yet to fully recover from the effects of a devastating drought that ravaged the country between 2020 to mid-2023 followed by El Nino - induced extensive floods in the latter part of the year causing massive displacement, destruction of infrastructure, and disruption of basic services and livelihoods. This particularly affected financially strapped households in a worse situation than they were especially rural communities and displaced persons. The 2024 Somalia Humanitarian Needs and Response Plan (HNRP) indicates that 6.9 million people will require humanitarian assistance in 2024. Further, the levels of deprivation will remain ‘severe’ and ‘extreme’ in most parts of Somalia largely due to climatic shocks, high disease burden, inadequate access to safe water and critical sanitation services, and poor livelihood outcomes that preclude access to food and/or income to afford food. ltbrgtSAMA aims to address gaps primarily in the nutrition sector in rural areas of Baidoa district SWS. Target villages are Adable-Cade, Bula-Sagar, Geldheere, Ismoonoy, Ahmed Gurey, Horseed village, Jiiro-gurey, Kaariyah, October village, Raydabaale, and Waaberi. SAMA proposes this nutrition project to meet the gaps in the nutrition sector by establishing Two fixed centre and 3 mobile units so as to reach more people. ltbrgtDuring this 12 months SAMA will screen and admit persons with malnutrition for treatment to recovery. SAMA will also conduct awareness sessions at household and institutional level to address people’s knowledge, believes and practices that affect their health. This project will be implemented under the guidelines to ensure gender mainstreaming, prevention of sexual exploitation and abuse, protection, equality among others. ltbrgtlt/pgt

Provision of anticipatory WASH services to vulnerable families in Jamaame district, Lower Juba Region - Somalia ltpgtThe project targets 15,000 host and displaced populations in Jamame district at risk of climate change-driven shocks with WASH intervention to prevent displacement, disease outbreaks, and loss of WASH infrastructure because of floods due to the projected above-average GU rain floods. The project activities are designed to mitigate the impact of floods on vulnerable communities in flood-prone areas in Jamame. SEA in consultation with the target communities and local authorities proposes to implement anticipatory WASH activities aimed at protecting water sources and sanitation facilities from damage and inundation during floods. SEA has mapped infrastructure at risk of floods and will undertake rehabilitation activities aimed at protecting water sources and sustaining their operations during floods. SEA will also pre-position spare parts and train representatives from the community on operation and maintenance to fix the water system vulnerable to floods. SEA also proposes constructing flood-proof solar-powered shallow wells for communities on higher grounds to address historic water access gaps. To prevent disease outbreaks and displacement and reduce protection risks exposed to women the project will construct family-shared floods-proof latrines on higher grounds where they will be less vulnerable to floods. SEA will provide 8 sanitation tools and engage hygiene promoters to open drainage systems and support community leaders in risk communication and community awareness. hygiene kit prepositioning is key to preventing disease outbreaks but also ensures timely response. The project will procure 2000 hygiene kits to target vulnerable households pre-selected based on vulnerabilities.lt/pgtltpgtltbrgtSEA convened a meeting with its health partner, Alight, and MPC partner - AYUUB, from the 14th to the 16th of March 2024. The meeting took place both in person and through an online platform. The objective was to establish a unified course of action for the target locations. During the visit, SEA, Alight, and AYUUB conducted assessments in four villages: Farwamo Lat (-0.043645), long (42.586857), Towfiq Lat (-0.041232), long (42.593197), Wirkoy Lat (-0.027743), long (42.60036), and Singaleer Lat (-0.006412), long (42.605292). It was mutually agreed upon to adopt a complementary integration approach and focus on the same population to provide services related to WASH, healthcare, and MPC support. This collaborative effort is expected to significantly enhance the living conditions of the targeted population and yield a meaningful response.ltbrgtlt/pgtltpgt  ltbrgtSEA will closely work with health and PMC partners to deliver integrated services to the target communities by ensuring a joint targeting mechanism is in place.
