Shelter and NFI Assistance to Affected Populations from Tropical Storm Ana in Malawi On 26 January 2022, the Government of Malawi (GoM) declared a state of disaster following Tropical Storm Ana, which led to severe flooding across some districts, especially in Southern Malawi. A joint inter-agency assessment team was deployed to the heavily affected districts, which estimates that 112,779 people have been displaced by floods and are living in 122 displacements sites, such as collective centres, across the worst affected districts. A large proportion of the sites identified constitute internally displaced persons (IDP) settlements at collective centres (primarily schools and churches). While sites require basic infrastructure and upgrade assistance, shelter and non-food items (NFIs) are urgently required to reduce protection concerns and ensure basic humanitarian standards, particularly to enable the return of IDPs and decongest the displacement sites and enable recovery.

Integrated Water, Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH) Assistance to Vulnerable Migrant Populations in Urban and Hard to Reach (HTR) Areas in Afghanistan According to the Afghanistan Humanitarian Response Plan (HRP) there were over 8.8 million people in need of water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) support in 2021. The risk of severe drought was also recognized by the Afghanistan National Disaster Management Authority (ANDMA), which released a National Drought Response Contingency Plan in April 2021 and an official state of drought was declared in June. Based on the needs assessments, it is clear that access to safe and clean water is a challenge in many provinces, where households rely on unprotected water sources, unstable piped water and, for a minority, surface water. Further, the lack of water points, and distance to collect water, also heightens the risk of gender-based-violence. This project directly contributes to identified WASH needs by expanding water provision through rehabilitation of gravity water supply schemes, hand-dug wells and boreholes, repair and set-up of handpumps and water distribution systems, and enhancing household water treatment and storage capacity. IOM is also providing hand hygiene infrastructure, hygiene kits, inclusive of menstrual hygiene management items, and conduct hygiene promotion activities to improve public health and reduce the risk of WASH-related diseases in high needs and/or hard to reach locations.

IOM’s response under this project includes the provision of NFI kits, piloting the use of safe unfinished buildings to provide dignified covered space for displaced households, and camp coordination and camp management interventions.
