Life saving food support and restoration of livelihood assets for population in crisis and emergency situation of drought affected in W.Galbeed and Sanaag Regions. The cumulative impact of the poor rainfall during the 2015/2016 food security situation in Northern Somalia remains critical due to dire drought exacerbated by El Niño. Severe food insecurity is currently experienced in rural areas of Somaliland due to below average rains three consecutive seasons Gu and Deyr 2016 and previous seasons. The most affected regions includes W.galbeed and Sanaag of Somaliland. A harsh Jiaal dry season (Jan – Mar 2017) is further expected to lead to increased cost of food items, and water trucking in the drought-affected areas. According to the Somalia Humanitarian Snapshot (as of 13 Dec 2016) “Over 1 million people are in need of assistance in Somaliland. Of these, 248,000 people are acutely food insecure”. The interplay of these weather-related events has exacerbated the poor humanitarian situation creating immediate needs of live saving intervention and sustaining livelihood assets. 

The most affected are pastoralist women, girls and boys whose families have lost most of their livestock herds and lack access to basic food items. Agro-pastoralist also have critical moment to resist drought crisis due to excessive crop failure during the past planting seasons. Findings from rapid need assessment carry out by ADO has identified the number of people seeking immediate lifesaving support had increased by more than triple from February 2015 level. Therefore, the proposed project will provide basic ration items for 1,200 vulnerable households through voucher system to safe-lives of most vulnerable households in target areas. moreover, 250 households will be provided essential farm inputs aiming at protect agro-pastoral livelihood system and encourage crop plantation for upcoming Gu season. Also the project will undertake water trucking for 35,000 Livestock population owned by 533 households, therefore, the project will support in total 1983 HH.s.  The areas of greatest concern is the Inland Pastoral livelihood zone of Sanaag region where unusually high numbers of livestock have already died and poor households are expected to have few domestic animals significantly limiting the income available to purchase food.  Proposed project prioritize emergency food voucher, livestock treatment combined with water supply for livestock and supply farm inputs for agro-pastoral households,  Which is in line with Food Security Cluster response plan.  The proposed project activities will be implemented directly by ADO.
Provision of lifesaving water, Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH) support to displaced persons and Host communities, affected by droughts in Bakool region, Somalia; The proposed Water Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH) intervention seeks to contribute to the reduction of mortality and morbidity, related to the poor access to drought condition among IDPs and Host population in Elbarde and Rabdhurre districts of Bakool region. This will be achieved through increased access to adequate, safe and sustainable water and supporting and promoting a culture of good hygiene practice in order to reduce the related protection and diseases risks especially among women and girls in target locations. 
As an initial lifesaving intervention, ACF will prioritize temporary water supply arrangement through water voucher to at least 10,800 individuals  for 4 months based on 5 liters per person per day ( in line with the cluster standards during emergencies), while rehabilitating 6 shallow wells  and 1 borehole whose combined water supply will benefit 8400 individuals. To ensure improved quality of the water both at household and health facility level, ACF will undertake initial tests and regular water treatment at source (well chlorination) and provision water filters at health centers. In order to improve the hygiene knowledge and practice among the target populations ACF will determine the hygiene knowledge and practice gaps through KAP surveys, one (baseline survey) at project inception to inform approaches to awareness raising and composition of emergency hygiene kits to be distributed to the most vulnerable households. An end line KAP survey will be conducted towards the end of the intervention to gauge the level impact made in household water treatment and behaviour change.
To ensure community ownership and sustainability, ACF will help establish 35 members (14 women and 21 men) water source management committees. Where possible, they will consist of 2 Technician, 2 Hygiene Promoter and representative from local administration. All the members will be trained in basic operation, maintenance, trouble-shooting and orderly access to the source. To instill sustained culture of good hygiene practice, the project will train and effectively engage existing 50 community health volunteers to enable them mainstream hygiene promotion activities into the nutrition and health education work in the community under the ongoing nutrition and health intervention. This hygiene promotions is expected to benefit 27,000 individuals ( 7640 men, 7398 women, 5981 boys and 5981 Girls) .

Support to OCHA, Somalia Initial Rapid Needs Assessment (SIRNA) and Joint Multi-Cluster Needs Assessment (JMCNA) REACH will support a joint nationwide multi-cluster needs assessment (JMCNA) across Somalia. The JMCNA will ensure that baseline needs relevant to each cluster are assessed in a way that can be easily and frequently updated, encourage multi-cluster coordination through the joint planning and implementation of the assessment itself, and facilitate response planning at the operationally relevant district level. The JMCNA has been endorsed by OCHA and the ICCG, and will be conducted in close coordination with Cluster Coordinators and partners, who will be expected to actively participate in the planning and implementation of the assessment.
Additionally, REACH will continue to develop and support inter-cluster initiatives for rapid assessment in Somalia, specifically through support to the continued development of the Somalia Initial Rapid Needs Assessment. Since late 2014, SIRNA has been developed and deployed in response to sudden-onset crises, in order to inform first-level responses. In 2015 and 2016 the SIRNA tool has been successfully transitioned onto an OCHA-managed KOBO platform, and has been utilised successfully as an inter-agency methodology. However, much of the implementation has rested on REACH direct involvement in field management, data analysis and report drafting. REACH will continue supporting the process of developing the SIRNA, and if relevant other inter-agency assessment frameworks.
Integrated humanitarian assistance is provided to drought affected communities in Awdal - Somalia This project targets Internally Displaced Persons, returnees and vulnerable host community affected by conflict and drought.  The project has dual objectives purposed to meet immediate food needs through Unconditional  and conditional cash Transfers. Beneficiaries will build community resilience through establishment and rehabilitation of community prioritized productive assets. Internally Displaced Persons, host communities and returnees will be preferred for UCT aimed at improving household immediate access to food in in affected areas of Awdal:  Lughaya, Zeylac and Borama . This corresponds to Food Security cluster strategic objective 1 “Address humanitarian needs by providing life-saving and life-sustaining assistance to people in need, prioritizing the most vulnerable” .

Strengthening Nutrition surveillance in key malnutrition hotspots through conducting nutrition assessments using the Standardized Monitoring and Assessment of Relief and Transitions (SMART) methodology. The proposed project is aimed at providing quality and timely nutrition information through conducting Standardized Monitoring and Assessment of Relief and Transitions (SMART) surveys in  five districts where the Global Acute Malnutrition (GAM) rates have been consistently high. The districts are Garowe, Gaalkacyo, Mogadishu, Dollow and Matalan.
The purpose of this survey is to monitor changes of nutrition and mortality status , as well as and other contextual factors of affecting nutrition status among children below five years in districts and populations where the situation is suspected  to have worsened due to the existing drought, displacements and conflicts. The survey results will provide stakeholders with integrated nutrition and food security assessment report which will form a solid basis for situation monitoring, planning and appropriate decision making.
 ACF will identify consultants to support concurrent implementation of the survey in the target districts, Assessment protocol and tools will be developed and presented to the Assessment and Information Management Working Group (AIMWG). Based on feedback provided by AIMWG, Action Contre La Faim (ACF) will revise the protocols and share back for further review. ACF will then share the preliminary findings with AIMWG for the technical review and input.  The AIMWG has the final the overall mandate to either validate the results entirely or partly.  Once validated, findings will be shared in country at sub national cluster level. ACF will the submit the final report using appropriate templates provided, with all comments addressed, within one month after validation.
Provision of Emergency Integrated  Primary Health Care services to populations affected by drought and Acute Watery Disease in Bulo Burte and Jalalaqsi Districts of Hiran with special focus on maternal and child health services  by equipping and fully operationalizing two health facilities and one mobile outreach. The two districts of Bulo burte and Jalalaqsi had  been under the control of various armed groups including alshabab for a long time until recently in 2014 when the joint efforts of the Somali armed forces and AMISOM had pushed these groups out of the main towns and nearby villages. The two districts have a joint population of 182,563 persons and these figures are estimated to rise to 214,741 persons in 2017(PESS,2014 Report).Prolonged draught, AWD outbreak, conflicts and constant displacement of populations has created a fragile humanitarian situation in the two districts. The situation is further complicated by a wave acute watery disease that hit the two districts hard leading to loss of live. Between 27th November 2016,when the first case of acute watery disease was reported in Bulo burte to date, a  combined morbidity of 234 persons were successfully treated in two Cholera treatment centers managed by WARDI located in Jalalaqsi hospital and Buloburte with a case fatality of 5 persons. The situation is currently under control but recurrence of AWD is expected in the coming month as water shortages owing to the prolonged drought continue to persist.
Response to the situation has been greatly hindered by absence of essential services including health, WASH and nutrition. 
In response to the situation, WARDI is proposing to upscale and optimize emergency lifesaving health services provision in the two districts by fully equipping and optimally operationalizing the outpatient department of Jalalaqsi hospital currently managed by WARDI and a health centre in Bulo burte town. The proposed health centre in Bulo burte will further be augmented by a mobile outreach that will attend to 12 accessible villages in the outskirts of Bulo burte town.
Once fully operational the proposed intervention is expected to provide integrated Primary health services to an estimated 60,000 people including 12,000 children under the age of five years,5,400 pregnant and Lactating women and 42,600 others. The two proposed health facilities are currently on the front line in responding to the AWD outbreak and will have the Cholera Treatment Centres (CTCs) attached to them fully equipped and staffed  to adequately respond to AWD/cholera cases.
