Nigeria Disaster Management BRC Managed DM Programme
The programme design currently under consideration is based on the four stage Disaster Management Cycle of response to a shock, recovery, DRR and resilience building, and preparedness. The different components of this programme will address all phases of the DM cycle, and will support vulnerable communities to better prepare for disasters, improve community capacity to respond, and strengthen post disaster coping mechanisms. At the same time, service delivery capacity of the NS across the DM cycle will be improved by delivering the project in three distinct phases, which will gradually build up the capacity of the NS to plan, implement, and report on the project independently.
At the idea stage, the current programme plan is as follows:
Phase 1: BRC led hands-on implementation on community level
Phase 1 of the programme is focused on community level planning and implementation. Working through the NS staff and volunteers, BRC will play a strong role in leading this process. By the end of phase one, the NRCS pilot divisions should be capable to plan, implement and report on the activities carried out. and be able to implement these in other communities without external technical support. 
Phase 2: Building NRCS lead capacity and expanding programme scope
In phase 2, the capacity of NRCS on branch level (and partially on HQ level) to plan and implement such community level activities is strengthened; also, the scope of some of the Phase 1 activities will be expanded, adding programmatic complexity. While in Phase 1 BRC will be working closely on the community level with NRCS, leading the process and training NRCS staff and volunteers â€œon the jobâ€. Phase 2 foresees NRCS taking over the leadership and (a) continuing work in these same communities and adding new components, and (b) repeating in new communities what BRC led in Phase 1. 
Phase 3: Consolidation and development of new finance modalities
Phase 3 is characterized by a consolidation of the progress made in phases 1 and 2, and through supporting NRCS to establish herself as preferential partner of the relevant DM institutions in Nigeria. Phases 2 and 3 also see the development and implementation of projects aimed at enhancing community level resilience, through initiatives identified by the communities themselves. It will also look at setting up financing modalities which will enable the NRCS to react quickly and effectively to community, and state level disasters.
Nigeria Food Security 2021 Over the past year,Â food insecurityÂ inÂ NigeriaÂ has reached levels that had not been observed since 2016â€“2017. The general higher prevalence of food insecurity is mainly due to the adverse effects of the COVID-19 and related essential containment measures on the supply chain, the unfavourable macroâ€‘economic conditions, high food prices, theÂ escalation of armed and inter-community conflict, localized cereal production shortfalls andÂ floods.Â
Haiti Earthquake 2021 A 7.2 magnitude earthquake struck Haiti on Saturday 14 August 2021 according to reports from the United States Geological Survey (USGS). The seismic focus was located 10km deep, and the epicentre was located 12km northeast of Saint-Louis du Sud, Haiti. A magnitude 5.2 aftershock occurred shortly thereafter, 17 km north-northwest of Chantal, Haiti, according to the USGS. It had a depth of 10km. The US Tsunami Warning System issued a tsunami warning that was later rescinded.
Three Major cities have been initially affected (Jacmel, Jeremie, Les Cayes). The earthquake was felt in the surrounding nations of Bahamas, Cuba, Jamaica, Dominican Republic, and others without reports of damages.
Â 
On 9 December 2022, the appeal was revised to include the response to the Cholera Outbreak in the country. The timeframe was extended, the geographical area expanded and targeted population increased.
Enabling Actions for Community Health (EACH) Enabling Actions for Community Health (EACH) by addressing health inequalities through an integrated health-climate resilience programme.
Climate change is no longer something that will happen in the future. It is happening now, and people are feeling its effects. Climate change represents the single biggest health threat facing humanity, and one most borne to those who are already marginalized. To address health concerns, we must safeguard communities against the effects of climate change and aim to save lives at times of climate induced disasters. Climate change in Nepal (ranked 4th in the world in terms of the countryâ€™s vulnerability to climate change) is already impacting health in a myriad of ways, leading to death and illness from increasingly frequent extreme weather events. The disruption of food systems, increasing the disease burden leading with water borne, vector-borne diseases, non-communicable disease, mental health issues and sexual and reproductive health, and a range of other health issues and determinants of health which are getting magnified many folds at times of any disasters.
The lessons learnt from BRC Nepalâ€™s disaster response programme and other studies shows, a silo approach to climate change, disaster preparedness and health does not bear fruit and rather proves counter- productive. Therefore, working at the nexus between health disaster preparedness and climate change adaptation approach is key to ensure an equitable health service delivery even at times of humanitarian crisis.
Regional Afghanistan Crisis 2021 Afghanistan is reeling from a complex humanitarian crisis resulting from compounding impacts of conflict, drought, food insecurity and displacement as well as gaps in health services. A recent escalation in the conflict has created additional stress and unpredictability to the country and population, rapidly increasing the number of displaced people. The escalation of conflict occurred in the backdrop of a drought that has affected more than 80 per cent of the country. In a drought declaration by the government on 22 June 2021, the countryâ€™s wheat crop will be reduced by nearly two million tons. Additionally, more than three million livestock are in danger of perishing due to a lack of fodder and water. The winter season will start in October with a potential for severe impact on drought-affected and displaced people whose coping capacities are already weakened. The compounding impacts of drought and conflict which escalated in July and the first half of August have exacerbated the hard living conditions in a country that is also grappling with COVID-19 and poverty. Amid several surges in COVID19 cases, the socio-economic impacts of the pandemic will continue to be felt, with the continued risk of new waves. Affected people are reliant on aid, including food assistance, lifesaving health care, and means to restore and protect their livelihoods. As of early August, around 11 million people are experiencing high levels of acute food insecurity due to the combination of conflict, COVID-19, high food prices, and rampant unemployment1 . These numbers are likely to increase due to developments of recent weeks though data is yet to be confirmed as the situation is evolving
IFRC has revised Emergency Appeal seeks 36 million Swiss francs, increased from 15 million Swiss francs, to scale up the Afghan Red Crescent Society (ARCS) humanitarian response for addressing needs wrought by multiple humanitarian crises in Afghanistan. The country is experiencing compounding effects of drought, conflict, displacement and gaps in health services, as well as anticipating a harsh winter. This Emergency Appeal will enable the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC) to support the ARCS to deliver assistance and support to 560,000 people over 24 months. In addition to increasing the number of people to be assisted, this revised Emergency Appeal extends the operation timeframe and expands the geographic scope. With this revision, there is a funding gap of CHF 35,150,000 Swiss francs.

Guinea Disaster Preparedness and Response The Guinean Red Cross is a key player in the national system of response to emergencies in Guinea. In the response to the epidemic of Ebola, the CRG provided leadership of the Hygiene and Sanitation Commission in addition to the services usually offered to communities in responding to emergencies. Disaster Preparedness and response is one of the three pillars of its strategic development plan 2015-2020.
This program aims to develop the capacities of the Guinean Red Cross at central and branches levels to better respond to emergencies across Guinea and assist more victims. Objectives are to increase their capacity to prepare for and respond to disasters, increase operational efficiency and accountability to beneficiaries and technical and financial partners, to improve information sharing and coordination both internal and external and their ability to learn from their operations.
The Guinean Red Cross aims through this project, to ensure the relevance, quality, scope and sustainability of services in disaster preparedness and response.
The project started at the end of 2016 and concluded in December 2018, funded with remaining Ebola appeal funds until the end of 2018. In Guinea BRC works though a consortium with the Danish RC and the Swiss RC, with BRC being the lead (full BRC funding + technical advice) on this DM initiative. A final external evaluation took place in March 2019 to assess the progress against indicators and evaluate the quality and efficiency of the programme, learn from this experience and provide recommendation to design a second phase.
A 6 months extension to the phase 1 has been developed in June and July 2019. It intends to take forward some recommendations from the final evaluation report to strengthen the achievement of phase 1
Pakistan Monsoon Flood 2022 Calling the incessant monsoon rains a â€œclimate-induced humanitarian crisis of epic proportionsâ€, the Government of Pakistan on 25 August 2022 officially declared a â€˜national emergencyâ€™ in light of the rain-induced floods, which have killed over 1,000 people already, including 348 children since 14 June. According to the National Disaster Management Authority (NDMA), as of 27 August, more than 5.7 million people have been affected by the ongoing floods2. Pakistan is experiencing abnormal monsoon rainfall nearly three times higher than the past 30-year average, resulting in uncontrollable urban and flash floods, and landslides across the country. The torrential rains continue to ravage many parts of Balochistan, with no rail and road link between Quetta and the rest of the country for the past several days. The provincial government called upon the federal government to provide a special package of PKR 60 billion (CHF 272.7 million) for the repair of infrastructure and rehabilitation of flood-hit families. Officials put the death toll across the province at 225. The rains also badly affected Sindh, Punjab and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) provinces. The government of Sindh declared 16 districts as calamity-hit due to the magnitude of damages caused by torrential rains and flooding, where 347 people have died so far in the province and 4.9 million are reportedly impacted, and 80 per cent of the total population is affected.
The flood has also badly affected infrastructure, so far 949,858 houses have been damaged across the country. In addition, 719,558 livestock have been lost and more than 3,000km of roads and 149 bridges have been damaged.3 The current rain spell and floods continue to impact already vulnerable and deprived districts, which have been affected by high food insecurity and where many people have not recovered from the effects of COVID-19. The authorities have already rescued 51,275 people, while 498,442 individuals are living in relief camps across the country. The weather forecast continues to indicate that more rainfall is expected across the country over the coming few days, inevitably resulting in increased loss and devastation.
The priority needs for people are emergency shelter, food and other basic necessities, safe drinking water and access to sanitation, hygiene and health care. People will also need support in recovering their livelihoods lost due to the floods.
Â 
The aim of this Emergency Appeal is to support the priority humanitarian response for the heavily affected populations in the flood-hit regions of Pakistan. This also includes a focus on the response capacity and readiness of the National Society and affected communities.

Ethiopia Population Movement 2019 IFRC appeal -Â MDRET020Â  Â  Â  Â Â 
Â  The displacement crisis in Ethiopia is the biggest globally with the country having the highest number of internally displaced populations exceeding countries with active conflicts.
Â 
-Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â  The total number of Internally Displaced Population (IDPs) and IDP returnees according to the Ethiopian Humanitarian Response Plan (HRP) is 3.19 million and the major humanitarian needs are in emergency shelter and NFIs, emergency nutrition support, food and cash Assistance, and prevention of Acute Watery Diarrhoea (AWD).
Â 
-Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â  The highest number of IDPs are in Somali, Oromia, and Southern Nations, Nationalities, and Peoples' (SNNP) regions which are also affected by the food insecurity situation.
Â 
-Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â  According to the HRP a total 5.91 million people are in need of nutrition assistance. Â The worsening nutrition status of the vulnerable populations is attributed to the consecutive droughts as well as the conflict related displacements.
Â 
-Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â  The food insecurity situation in Ethiopia is significantly high and the situation will worsen if not addressed. According to the HRP at least 8.13 million people are food insecure and require food assistance, a combination of consecutive droughts and conflict induced displacements account for the high food insecurity levels in the country. Â
East Africa Crisis 2016/17 Drought, food insecurity and conflict have led to a sharp increase in needs across east Africa in 2017, and in particular in South Sudan, Somalia, Kenya and Ethiopia. Neighbouring countries have also been affected, especially those receiving high numbers of refugees, such as Uganda. This crisis has led to a significant international humanitarian response in each affected country, including from the RC Movement. BRC has also been responding, through the launch of its own public appeal, engagement with the DEC East Africa appeal, and through the allocation of funding and resources to various operations throughout the region.
Ukraine Civil Unrest 2015 In February 2014 increasing unrest in Ukraine resulted in violence. As this violence continues to escalate so too does the humanitarian need. Despite a truce in February 2015 violence has been on-going, with the level of violence in conflict areas in the east significantly increasing since May 2016. 3.7 Million are directly affected by the conflict andÂ 3.1 Million vulnerable peopleÂ require humanitarian assistance. More thanÂ 1.7mÂ people are displaced and hundres of thousands more have fled the country. Furthermore areas outside of government control have experienced complete withdrawal of all government services. Inflation and food prices, physical access to markets means that coping strategies are becoming less sustainable, endangering food security and further increasing the humanitarian needs.
Nigeria National Society Development - IFRC After a long-term engagement with the Nigerian Red Cross Society (NRCS) between 1994 and 2008, BRC re-started support to NRCS in 2016 and has had a permanent presence in Nigeria (office and Country Manager) since January 2019. Following discussions with the BRC Nigeria Office, NRCS adopted a 3-pillar business model, which serves as guidance to NRCS and their partners on how to best develop and support the National Society: Pillar 1 Providing RC services on community level (no donor funding) Pillar 2 Maintaining capacity to absorb funding and technical expertise Pillar 3 Exploiting commercial opportunities In 2019, BRC plans to support the NRCSâ€™ development plan in the following ways : 1. Support the Nigeria Red Cross Society in their institutional development with the view to build a strong and independent NS (i.e., strengthening pillars 1 and 2) 2. Support the NRCS in the development of their commercial activities with the objective to enable the NS to fund at least their core costs through income generating activities (i.e., strengthening pillar 3) 3. Other support according to possible changes of NRCS strategic and operational priorities, allowing for interactive discussions with NRCS, leaving room for adaptation to changing need
Pakistan: Digitalisation Development Programme AnÂ eighteen month programmeÂ Â through the IFRC to initiate A Journey Towards PRCS Digitalisation. The project will be using the latest digital technology solutions to push the PRCS systems to become more effective, transparent and accountable - enabling to follow the money, the people and the outcomes while leaving no one behind. It is envisaged that the project interventions would be instrumental to have a bigger, faster and more cost-effective impact on the lives of poor people, we as a movement target in Pakistan. It will improve Governance and accountability to reach more beneficiaries in cost effective manners. First phase will be the stratigic assessment and planning process and then phases 2 & 3, its roll out first at HQ level and then across the provincial branches.
WCA Cash Preparedness Programme This programme builds on the achievements of the Sahel Cash Preparedness Programme, implemented from 2017-2022 with the 5 Sahel countries (Burkina Faso, Niger and Mali in Phase 1 â€“ Chad and Mauritania in Phase 2).Â 
Similar to the Sahel Cash Programme, we will follow the guidelines for mainstreaming and preparedness for CVA developed by IFRC. The guidelines cover five parallel tracks in which investment is needed in order for NSs to become â€œcash readyâ€ for fuller and deeper CVA deployment in countries:
1. Leadership Commitment
2. Processes, Systems and Tools
3. Financial and Human Resources and Capacities
4. Community Engagement and Accountability (CEA), Coordination and Partnerships
5. Test, Learn and ImproveÂ 
Â 
The country plans will be adapted to fit with the HNS capacity, peer-to-peer exchange/learning will be encouraged, and CVA pilots will be implemented to test skills.
Â
Cash Preparedness in Asia The overall goal of the project is to :
Enhance the Red Cross/Crescentâ€™s cash-based engagement in disasters at both a national and regional level on behalf of the IFRC across the Asia Pacific Region.
This joint initiative will achieve this by supporting the acceleration of each of the three participating National Societyâ€™s (Bangladesh, Nepal and Myanmar) own cash development competencies and effectiveness alongside enhancing the wider IFRC regional strategic positioning to support this process.
Lake Chad Basin Crisis Boko Haram conflict in the North East Nigeria has been raging for a while now butÂ due to the recent deteriorationÂ and regional spill-over, the situation has become a truly regional and mutli-sectoral complex emergency (acute food insecurity/famine, health disaster with multiple epidemic outbreak, population movements etc). An increase in media coverage and public interest in the crisis has been noted. On 31st October, BRC launched its Lake Chad crisis emergency appeal to support ICRC's relief activities in the region - mainly Nigeria and Cameroon. In 2016, BRC supported the ICRC through the secondment of 3 delegates in the North East of Nigeria (logistics and 2 CTP), 1 CTP delegate in Cameroon and provided a total of funded Â£557K to the ICRC regional Lake Chad appeals: - 150K to the Nigeria appeal (fully funded) - 407K to the Cameroon appeal: 207 from the disaster fund, 100K from the income of the BRC appeal and 100K of underspent G funds.
Kenya Food Crisis & Drought 2021-2023 There is a worsening food and nutrition situation in Kenya, attributed mainly to the poor performance of the OND 2020 and the MAM 2021
Projected 1,913,265 persons will need assistance (34% increase from the 1.4 million February 2021)
At least 12 Counties affected -Â Marsabit, Mandera, Garissa, Wajir, Kilifi, Tana River, Lamu, Samburu, Kitui, Lamu, Isiolo and Laikipia are in the alert drought phase
The worst affected counties-Â  Turkana, Garissa, Wajir and Marsabit counties which have about 5% of their populations in IPC 4 (NDMA, July 2021).

2018 Indonesia Earthquake and Tsunami On Friday 28 September 2018 a series of earthquakes struck around Donggala, province of South East Sulawesi, Indonesia. The first occurred 14:00 (West Indonesia local time) with the strongest at a magnitude of 7.7 at 17:02, at a depth of 10 km. The U.S. Geological Survey said a magnitude 7.5 quake was centred at a depth of 6 miles (10km) about 35 miles (56km) northeast of the town of Donggala. The earthquake caused a Tsunami wave that hit Palu, Donggala and Mamuju. Reports of size of wave vary from 2m to up to 6m in some places. Based on an INASAFE shake map, it is estimated at least 300,000 people have been affected in the Donggala District, with estimation that the event affected more populaiton in other districts. National disaster management agency estimate fatalities at 832 people as of 30/09/18. Indonesian Government called for international assistance on the morning of 01/10/18. Â
