Life-saving WASH emergency support for IDPs in Madinatu Camp, Old Maiduguri, Jere LGA The severe influx of new arrivals from northern Borno in the already over-congested camp settings of Maiduguri/Jere, including Madinatu camp, requires a timely and effective life-saving WASH response from the humanitarian sector. 
According to the IOM new arrivals tracking sheet for Madinatu, a total of 3,440 individuals (new arrivals) arrived in Madinatu between November 8, 2018 to March 6, 2019. In total, from DTM R25 (5,491 individuals) to March 6, 2019, IOM recorded a total of 8,931 arrivals into Madinatu.  Those new arrivals are in urgent need of basic WASH services. Since WASH facilities of the already existing IDPs are overstretched due to the influx, this population is also in urgent need of additional assistance.  
As part of the 90-Days Emergency Response Plan, this project fills the identified WASH gaps in Madinatu camp for new arrivals and existing (IDP) population. New arrivals and existing (IDP) populations are assessed to be in urgent need of safe water, sanitation facilities and hygiene to prevent outbreaks of water-borne diseases. 
Therefore, new arrivals and the (IDP) population are being supported through the provision of safe water, construction of gender-segregated sanitation facilities and intense hygiene promotion campaigns. Consequently, the project contributes towards reduced mortality rate of most vulnerable people and prepares the population against the outbreak of cholera in advance.
Provision of camp management services, non-food items and shelter solutions to displaced populations in north-east Nigeria Through this project, IOM aims to reach a total of 437,646 IDPs in camps and camp-like settings through a multi-sector approach, including camp coordination and camp management (CCCM), shelter, and non-food items (NFIs). The project is in line with the NHF Allocation Strategy, both in terms of activities, target locations and beneficiary types. Under the CCCM component of the project, IOM will focus on enhancing site facilitation capacity and site improvements. The shelter response will include  the construction of 1,350 emergency shelters, and the reinforcement of 1,000 shelters. Under the NFI component of the project, IOM will preposition 550 NFI kits and distribute 500 NFI kits to ensure that the immediate needs are met while enhancing preparedness for needs as they arise. The activities will be implemented in camps and camp-like settings in Ngala, Gwoza (including Pulka), Bama (including Banki), Dikwa, Monguno, Mafa, Jere, Maiduguri Metropolitan Centre (MMC), Kala Balge (Rann), and Damboa in Borno State, and Yola North, Yola South, Girie and Song in Adamawa state.
Provision of life-saving multi-sectoral assistance targeting new arrivals and displaced populations in north-east Nigeria Since the inception of the counter insurgency operations in 2017, the trend of new arrivals from hard-to reach areas to accessible locations across Borno State has increased significantly and at an alarming rate – The period of November 2018 to January 2019 saw a record of 71,807 arrivals from hard-to-reach areas to accessible areas more than 44,000 arrived in January alone. Among the new arrivals conflict and insecurity is cited as the key trigger of displacement (IOM Displacement Tracing Matrix, Emergency Tracking Tool).

The rapid and alarming rate of new arrivals is leading to over-congestion in camp and camp-like settings. To illustrate, in Teachers Village, Maiduguri, capacity has been stretched from 5,000 to 28,000 people in one-month.This has put existing Shelter and Non-Food Items (NFIs), and Water, Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH) services under great strain and continued pressure, particularly with regard to supporting new arrivals and displaced populations hosted in camp and camp-like settings. 

In response to the needs identified and the strategy defined by the CCCM/Shelter-NFI, and WASH sector IOM will through this project support the continuation and scaling-up of assistance within the areas of (1) Emergency shelter and Non-Food Items (NFI) and (2) WASH. In the area of Emergency Shelter and NFI IOM will: (a) distribute improved NFI kits in response to the urgent life-saving needs of new arrivals and displaced populations in camp and camp-like settings in Monguno (b) distribute improved emergency shelters kits in response to urgent needs of new arrival and displaced populations in camp and camp-like settings across Monguno and (c) rehabilitate and partition damaged public buildings in order to provide accommodation for displaced populations and new arrivals in camp and camp-like settings in Monguno. In the area of WASH IOM will: (a) ensure access to safe water facilities and services across all sub-groups of the affected population through the drilling, installation, maintenance and rehabilitation of boreholes (b) construct, operate and maintain sanitation facilities (latrines, showers, hand washing stations) and (c) establish, train and equip existing and newly established community-based WASH committees to support improved sanitation as well as hygiene outcomes and practices of new arrivals and displaced populations in targeted camp and camp-like settings. Activities are to be implemented in compliment to ensure a timely and holistic response to the multi-sectoral needs of displaced populations in camp and camp-like settings in Monguno, Jere and Maiduguri Metropolitan Council (MMC).
Emergency Water, Sanitation and Hygiene Humanitarian Assistance to Affected Populations in Mafa and Kala Balge LGAs, Borno state, North Eastern Nigeria Tdh plans to implement a 8-month project which focusses on the provision of life-saving WASH support to vulnerable populations most in need in Mafa and Kala Balge local governorates. Tdh plans to support a total of 52,500 individuals. This project will build upon Tdh’s experience providing WASH services in the targeted areas and contribute to the overall objective of the Nigeria Humanitarian response strategy plan to Save lives by providing timely and integrated multi-sector assistance and protection interventions to the most vulnerable, IDPs, returnees and host communities.The project will strive to increase and improve access to safe and equitable water, sanitation and hygiene thereby contribute to save lives, improve health, safety and dignity of the affected population. The action will also boost the cholera outbreak preparedness in the targeted areas. The first and second outputs of the proposed project will focus on improving the standards of water and sanitation facilities through installation of emergency water and sanitation infrastructures to new and emerging caseloads, and by ensuring the operation and maintenances of water and sanitation infrastructures  (installation of water points, repair and or upgrade of water points, chlorination of water points, latrines and bathing facilities repairs, desludging and decommissioning of sanitation infrastructures). The Third output focuses on hygiene practices improvement through community awareness raising sessions and distribution of hygiene kits to practice all or some of promoted messages.
WASH Emergency Response to Displacement Affected Population in Monguno The proposed project aims to respond to the WASH critical needs for the newly displaced families in Kuya, GSSSS and Water Board camps, Monguno Local Government Area (LGA), in line with the 90 Day Emergency Response Plan. The project, which will be implemented under a 6-month period, will cover a total of 2,736 households, 13,680 individuals (6,292M 7,388F) affected by the ongoing conflict and recent displacement with different WASH packages.
Based on the gaps identified, the project will address the following gaps

 Provision of clean water for drinking, personal hygiene and other domestic purposes through water trucking for a period of 60 days to a total of 8,000 individuals, with a per capita supply of 15 liters and through rehabilitation of one existing borehole. The borehole will improve water supply to the existing population, with a catchment of around 1,680 individuals
 Enhancing access to dignified sanitation facilities through construction of 65 new latrines and  65 bathing shelters, rehabilitation of 150 existing latrines, desludging to ensure proper operation and maintenance of full latrines and distribution of latrine cleaning materials. The emergency latrines will each serve a maximum of 50 individuals (ratio of 1:50).
 Refuse management through community mobilisation and distribution of 30 sanitation kits.
 Hygiene promotion, focusing on house to house visits, coupled with monthly distribution of soap to encourage proper hand washing practice and focusing on risky hygiene behaviors. Direct hygiene promotion will focus on 2400 Households, including those 1,200 HHs that will receive a monthly supply of soap for proper handwashing.
 Distribution of 500 Family Hygiene Kits, to vulnerable newly arrived Households, from the target beneficiary figure for hygiene promotion. A vulnerability criterion will be used in the beneficiary selection for this activity. Households that will receive soap distributed monthly may not be included in this distribution. 

NRC’s project teams will work closely with the affected communities through their leaders and Internally Displaced Persons (IDP) representatives, as well as with the Shelter and Camp Management, the government representatives, and health and the other WASH sector partners.
Strengthening humanitarian response capacity through pre-positioning shelter and NFI kits in Borno Close to 8.5 million people are affected by the current conflict or violence in north-east Nigeria caused by Armed Opposition Groups related violence since 2009. According to Humanitarian Response Plan, 25,261 persons have been displaced from Guzamala, Monguno, Magumeri, Ngala, Gwoza and Kukawa Local Government Areas (LGA) of Borno State to Maiduguri Metropolitan Centre LGA since November 2018. In this situation of large-scaled and constant displacement, shelter and NFI needs are strong.  

Through this project, Solidarites International is thus proposing to strengthen the humanitarian response capacity in terms of shelter and NFI by pre-positioning 2,000 emergency shelter and 1,000 NFI kits in the Shelter Cluster warehouse in Maiduguri and to kitting the kits so they will be ready to be distributed, to fasten the humanitarian response.
Thus, the beneficiaries of the proposed action are key shelter and NFI humanitarian actors working in Borno State and responding to the ongoing humanitarian crisis.
Emergency shelter and NFI assistance to IDPs in Borno through direct distribution and strengthening of the shelter and NFI sector pipeline The complex emergency and conflict in North East Nigeria started in 2009 and has resulted in the displacement of over 2 million people (DTM Aug 2019). Overall, 7.1 million people are in dire need of assistance across Borno, Adamawa and Yobe (BAY) states (HRP 2019-2021), including 1.9 million IDPs targeted by shelter and CCCM sector. The situation of IDPs is critical, as they are living in emergency shelters in severely congested temporary camps and in harsh weather conditions prone to frequent disasters such as rain, flooding and fire incidents. 

Due to increased hostilities and insecurity, the number of registered displacements continue to increase (by 2% over last 4 months’ period), and is expected to continue, as the Nigerian Government Forces recently adopted the strategy of establishing “super camps” to strengthen their defenses in areas with population concentration, thereby removing troops from remote areas. This strategy will result in further displacements of IDPs, moving to secure locations, and therefore to an increased demand in shelter. 

Due to ongoing conflict and security operation in Borno, 5 Local Government Areas - LGAs (Guzamala, Marte, Kukawa, Abadam and Kala/Balge) are indeed considered completely inaccessible while 8 more LGAs – Bama, Damboa, Dikwa, Gwoza, Konduga, Monguno, Ngala and Nganzai - are considered “hard to reach” or partially accessible, with the least access to health services, shelters, safe water and the highest rate of malnutrition and protection issues (REACH - November 2018 - April 2019). 

Through this project, Solidarites International (SI) is thus proposing to strengthen the humanitarian response capacity in terms of shelter and NFIs by providing 2,580 Bama emergency shelters (aligned with the Shelter Cluster standard) and 2,580 improved NFI kits to approximately 18,060 beneficiaries (7 beneficiaries per NFI kit on average). Of these shelters, 1,700 emergency shelters and 1,700 improved NFI kits will be pre-positioned as part of the shelter sector pipeline managed by the Shelter and CCCM sector in IOM warehouse in Maiduguri and common warehouses in Monguno, Dikwa and Ngala (prioritized locations under this allocation). This pre-positioning will ensure that they will be ready to be distributed to fasten the humanitarian response. Additionally, 880 emergency shelters (Bama) and NFI kits will be directly distributed by SI to new arrivals and vulnerable households in need of shelters replacement/upgrading in the targeted areas.

Thus, the beneficiaries of the proposed action are key shelter and NFI humanitarian actors working in Borno State and responding to the ongoing humanitarian crisis, as well as 18,060 IDPs
Emergency WASH Response Women, Men, Girls and Boys in Conflict Affected LGAs, Borno State, Nigeria. The proposed emergency response project will address critical gaps and protection concerns within WASH sector to meet the needs of vulnerable women, men, girl and boys living in 1 out of the 11 priority conflict-affected LGAs of Borno State: Gwoza. This intervention aims to increase access to lifesaving WaSH services for IDPs and host communities with the highest needs within one of the most underfunded sectors.

Reduction of health risks and increased dignity of affected women, men, girls and boys through provision of adequate and safe drinking water via water trucking (at least 4,666 beneficiaries) in Pulka, rehabilitation and upgrading of WaSH facilities destroyed by windstorms and floods (4,000 beneficiaries), distribution and replenishment of hygiene kits to support safe and appropriate household hygiene with focus on cholera prevention (minimum 5,000 individuals), reinforcement of community capacity on OampM of WaSH facilities for their sustainability.
Provision of life-saving assistance through strengthening of the curative nutritional services for Under-5 children in Borno State This is an eight month project aimed at strengthening the capacity of Stabilization Centers (SC) in the priority L.G.As to manage Severely Acutely Malnourished under-5 children with complications.This will be achieved via prompt treatment of SAM children by building capacity of stabilization centers staff and provision of necessary supplies and commodities. Through this project, a total number of 2455 persons will be reached. This includes under-5 boys and girls treated for SAM as well as healthcare workers trained on management of SAM with complications. The project plans to provide support for the treatment for a total of 2405 SAM children with complications ( 460 Magumeri, 293 Mafa,634 Konduga, 550 Hawul,279 Chibok and 189 Kaga). This will be leveraged on the already established strong collaboration between WHO and Plan international in Kaga,Mafa,Konduga,Chibok and Hawul and with Intersos in Magumeri. This will be coordinated by the SMoH with complementary of joint supportive supervisions and Therapeutic food supply with Unicef.
These interventions will improve the nutrition status of the most vulnerable population in target areas. It will also reduce morbidity and mortality related to malnutrition in Borno State.
Provision of Shelter and NFIs Assistance to IDPs in response to New Arrivals in Kaga  and Decongestion of Camps in Monguno Local Government Area. UNHCR continues to effectively respond to emergency needs in North-East Nigeria, to address gaps identified by the Shelter amp DMS/CCCM Displacement through the provision of Protection, Shelter/NFI and CCCM. This project will target IDPs in response to new arrivals to support urgent and critical needs in accordance with the 90-Days Emergency Response Plan, and in line with the Humanitarian Response Plan through the provision of 600 emergency shelters Bama type and 600 improved NFI kits to newly displaced IDPs in Maiduguri LGAs. In 2019, UNHCR responded to shelter needs of IDPs in Borno state, by providing a total of 510 HHs to a total of 2550 individuals who benefitted from shelter assistance in formal camp (Stadium) in Maiduguri under the NHF standard allocation. The beneficiaries of the assistance were mostly displaced persons originating from Kukawa, Monguno axis who had been been without shelter in the Teacher’s village camp. UNHCR also provided shelter assistance to IDPs and Refugee returnees earlier this year to 100 HHs in Pulka Gwoza LGA of Borno State. As the number of new arrivals and congestions in camps increases due to military operations in Monguno, Kukawa, Bama, Ngala and Gwoza LGAs, there is need to provide emergency shelters and NFIs for life-saving emergency assistance. Subsequently acknowledging that the humanitarian situation is likely to further deteriorate UNHCR will scale-up its activities to promote the protection, safety and dignity of affected Persons of Concern (PoCs).
 
Despite the achievements in the past, the continuous needs of IDPs, though shaped by very different dynamics, have continued to grow, due to the unabating spiral of violence, pushing more and more people in very congested camps. The inadequate support to IDPs and lack of spacious land is likely to scale up the number of IDP’s hosted within the existing camps, consequently reducing the number of emergency shelters available to cover both the needs of new arrivals and to decongest the camps. 

UNHCR shall build upon progress being made in 2019 and proposes, under this action the
1. Provision of 600 emergency shelters Bama type (600 households) to new arrivals in Maiduguri.
2. Provision of 600 improved NFI kits
The selection of beneficiaries will be based on needs assessment and vulnerability screening in the locations at the time of implementation. Identification and verification of beneficiaries are guided by UNHCR’s Protection principles.
Emergency WASH Assistance to new arrivals in MMC and Jere LGA of Borno State The last IOM Displacement Tracking Matrix round 25 October 2018 assessment report for 14 hotspot LGA’s, showed that 73% (1, 248, 809) of the total IDP’s were displaced due to armed conflict are in Borno State,40% of the IDP’s are residing in camp like settings, and 60% are in the host community of the 14 hotspot LGA’s 

As at 10th January 2019 MMC had 234,045 IDP’s. There is a current influx of 25,261 new arrivals and a projection of 47,364 from 11 January to 1 April 2019. In Jere LGA, estimated IDPs stood at 55,824 as at 10th January, with a significant influx of new arrival of 2,337 and a projection of 4,382 IDP’s from 11 January to 1 April 2019.

Furthermore, the recent attack by the Non-State Armed Opposition Group had forced many families to flee communities around the Lake Chad Region. Based on the report of the allocation strategy and CAID coordination with the WASH Cluster and other WASH actors, there is an increasing WASH gap in MMC and Jere LGA. The existing WASH facilities and services are overstretched and proving inadequate to provide enough coverage to users in the camps.

Through the NHF fund, Christian Aid aims to provide life-saving relief interventions to conflict affected populations in Dalori and Gubio camps in MMC and Jere LGA’ of Borno State in North East Nigeria, focusing on new arrivals. The intervention will assist conflict affected populations in the 2 Borno Central LGA’s to meet their basic human needs of access to improved sanitation and hygiene facilities. 
Christian Aid is proposing to provide life-saving WASH services to newly arrived Internally Displace Person’s and meeting sectoral gaps over a period of 5 months, through an emergency WASH services provision at new arrival camps, and congested camps with high concentration of IDP’s located in MMC and Jere LGAs. The proposed WASH products/services will be delivered to a total of to 9800 new IDP arrivals in Dalori and Gubio camps in MMC and Jere LGAs. The following are the proposed activities.

1) Drilling of 2 hybrid powered boreholes in Dalori and Gubio new arrival camp to provide portable drinking water to conflict affected persons as per sector standard   

2) Construction of 19 blocks of 4 and 2 stance of inclusive VIP latrines and bathing showers, 10 blocks of inclusive latrines and bathing showers will be constructed in Gubio camp, and 9 blocks of inclusive latrines and bathing showers will be constructed in Dalori camp for conflict affected new arrivals, to enable them have safe access to improved sanitation  facilities.  

The proposed set of activities prioritized under the 2019 First Reserve Allocation will directly reach 10,600 most vulnerable conflict affected individuals out of the 51,7467 incoming projected new arrivals in the most affected hotspot in Jere and MMC LGA’s in Borno State. Based on historical trend analysis as mentioned in the strategy paper.
Providing Emergency Lifesaving Shelter Assistance to the Displacement Affected Population in hard to reach areas in Borno State, inlcuding Monguno This project aims at providing lifesaving shelter assistance to the most vulnerable displaced people in Monguno and strengthening the sector capacity by prepositioning shelter Bama type and improved NFIs kit to support timely response by the shelter sector. Responding to the spike in new arrivals, NRC will incorporate safe programming when distributing 650 improved shelters kits and 650 improved NFI kits in Monguno. NRC will target 650 households, representing 3,250 (1,417 M 1,833 F) individuals with improved shelter kits, complemented with NFI kits for each household.. 

Using its community-based approach, NRC will collaborate with traditional leaders and local stakeholders during the project life. To build a sense of ownership and inclusion, NRC will ensure that a community-based beneficiary selection committee will be established and assist in the beneficiary selection using set vulnerability criteria. The committee will be involved in the community sensitisation within the targeted locations, raising awareness of the project and the use of NFI kits among the beneficiaries.

To avoid duplication of efforts, NRC will ensure good coordination with other implementing partners in the targeted locations through active participation in the Shelter/CCCM/NFI Sector.
Promoting rights and supporting emergency protection needs in MMC, Jere and Monguno, Borno State As an early responder to the influx of IDPs into Monguno town and the Maiduguri metropolitan area (including both MMC and Jere LGAs), the IRC has seen first-hand the acute and often life-threatening protection concerns faced by those displaced from their homes and livelihoods by the conflict. The displaced population is varied in demographics (men, women, boys and girls) as well as protection needs. As a result, the IRC is proposing a comprehensive and community-based approach to addressing acute protection needs including support for Unaccompanied and Separated Children (UASC), case management and access to assistance for victims of gender based violence (GBV) and sexual exploitation and abuse (SEA) to ensure that displaced communities maintain dignity and are able to hold government and community authorities accountable. The IRC’s proposed 5-month intervention will draw on expertise from the protection sector including GBV and child protection subsectors. 
Project activities will reach an estimated 50,745 persons, but the exact number cannot yet be targeted due to the very fluid situation
