Water, Sanitation, Hygiene and Emergency Shelter and NFI rapid response for people affected by conflicts induced displacements and natural disasters in Kachin and Shan State The present project aims at maintaining a WASH and Shelter/NFI rapid response mechanism for new internal displacements and population affected by conflicts and natural disasters in Kachin and Shan States. It will ensure the continuity of the past and current  MHF funded projects implemented by SI in consortium with Save the Children (SCI) to cover the basic WASH and Shelter/NFI needs of the affected populations and to reinforce the capacity-building of local and implementing partners. In addition to current successful strategy and activities (emergency water supply and treatment, sanitation infrastructures construction, Shelter/NFI component and capacity building of local stakeholders to allow them to deliver response through the emergency stocks of SI and SCI), the consortium proposes updated approach and activities, which were discussed with and supported by clusters at local and national levels.
With the objective to support consortium emergency response in remote and Non-Governmental Control Areas (NGCA) a local organization, Kachin Baptist Convention, (KBC) will join the consortium. 
In addition, drawing lessons learnt from the current MHF funded project, SI and SCI decided to review the contents of some kits to address different needs and concerns for girls and boys (children specific items in NFI kit). Such review was validated at regional clusters’ level and discussed at national clusters’ level for both kits contain.
The capacity-building for emergency response of other local stakeholders (Local NGOs, Local CSOs and government agencies active in emergency response) remains a clear objective of the action and will be continued. 
Following field observations and OCHA’s suggestions, and as supported by clusters and Cash Working Group (CWG), SI, SCI and KBC decided to add a pilot cash transfer component to the present design with unconditional limited cash grant distribution to cover the most urgent and immediate needs of affected populations following displacements, in addition to the WASH and Shelter/NFI activities, to reinforced a holistic and flexible approach in emergency contexts.
Effective Humanitarian Response in Kachin and Shan States This project will enable the Metta Development Foundation (Metta) and implementing partner Wunpawng Ninghtoi (WPN) to set-up a Rapid Response Mechanism to meet the humanitarian needs of people newly displaced due to conflict or natural disaster. The project will ensure that sudden-onset humanitarian emergency response capabilities and resources are pre-positioned to be deployed quickly and effectively, thus mitigating suffering and saving lives. These pre-positioned capabilities and resources will also enable Metta and WPN to address gaps in the on-going humanitarian needs of existing Internally Displaced People (IDP) in Kachin and Shan states. WPN is already an implementing partner of Save the Children International (SCI) in KIA controlled areas of Kachin state.

At present, close to 100,000 people remain internally displaced in Kachin and Shan states after armed conflict between the Myanmar Army and the KIA re-ignited in June 2011, ending a 17-year ceasefire. Armed clashes in the area involving other non-state armed groups – notably the Shan State Army- South (SSA-S) and the Ta’ang National Liberation Army (TNLA  ) – continue and the situation remains highly volatile. The potential for new displacement from the spread of armed conflict to new areas is ever-present. Adding to the complexity of the situation, people in Kachin and Shan states are extremely vulnerable to natural disasters with the large number of IDPs being particularly at risk due to their often marginal housing conditions and livelihood situations. 

2016 mid-year Humanitarian Response Plan Monitoring report have shown that the sectors Food Security, Shelter/Non-Food Items, WASH and Nutrition all remain priorities for IDPs in Kachin and Shan states. These same sectors are also among the first important needs of newly displaced people. By providing funds to support activities in these crucial sectors, this project will enable local organizations Metta and WPN to be prepared for any potential humanitarian emergencies resulting from conflict or natural disaster. 
  
Project activities will prioritize the needs of particularly vulnerable people and gender equality. Preferential treatment in selection processes will be given to female-headed households, women and widows, unaccompanied children (girls in particular), the elderly, people with disabilities, pregnant women and lactating mothers.
Shelter Replacement and Repair in Selected IDP Camps of Kachin and Shan States The on-going Kachin conflict that restarted in 2011 has resulted in large scale displacement of people.  Most of the internally displaced persons (IDPs) have sought shelter in camps and camp-like settings across the area.  As a first line of response providers, many of the religious facilities such as churches and monasteries were used to provide temporary shelters for the IDPs.  About 1/3rd of shelter support to IDPS was provided by local faith based organizations.  Five years since these shelters were constructed in 2011-12, many of these structures are in various degrees of dilapidation making them less than suitable for habitation.  Anticipating that the conflict will not end soon,, the shelters were designed to last for about two years.  However, as the conflict continues it would therefore seem like the majority of those displaced will continue to be so for some time yet and the shelters they are occupying are deteriorating further.  This current condition of shelter has been brought about by a combination of factors that include – initial structures not meeting acceptable international standards for IDP shelters, international communities’ belated response, declining interest of donors resulting in inadequate funds for Kachin, uncertain condition of return not motivating IDPs to maintain their temporary shelters, and protracted nature of conflict building up of sense of dependency and hopelessness.

The proposed project focusing on the shelter component of MHF is seeking support to improve the shelter conditions of IDPs in selected camps in Bhamo, Lashio and Myitkyina. The diversity of shelter situation would require different type of shelter support in these three areas of KMSS operations.
Reinforcing Protection through Education in Emergencies The goal of the project is to address the outstanding and anticipated education and protection needs of displaced, vulnerable populations in camps and camp-like settings in Kachin state, whenever possible by catalysing local partners to begin applying the skills they have developed to implementation in camps. The NRC will approach the project using a protection lens to ensure children, adolescents, and youth maintain a positive environment and have healthy opportunities for growth. This will increase access to protection-related information in the target communities and enable community members to make choices that contribute to developing a more secure environment within camps and camp-like settings. 

The NRC plans to construct seven disaster-risk sensitive temporary learning spaces (TLSs) in seven different camps throughout the government-controlled areas (GCAs) of Kachin state. The NRC will also use TLSs to conduct skills and mobile life skills trainings following the model used in camps in Rakhine State. These activities will specifically target young people who have dropped out of school and are vulnerable to engaging in violence, drug use, and crime. The TLSs will also be used to facilitate non-formal education facilitate activities for children. To support children staying in school, the NRC will also facilitate access to school supplies for 637 middle and high school aged children in the seven camps. In order to encourage existing government-run schools to facilitate access to education for IDPs who cannot afford school fees, the NRC will negotiate the rehabilitation of three existing government schools. In total, 10 education facilities (7 newly constructed TLSs and 3 existing government schools) will be supported through this project.

The NRC has grown increasingly concerned about the number of youth in Kachin moving unaccompanied from non-government-controlled areas (NGCAs) to GCAs to access schools, where they live in boarding houses. Given the protection issue that this poses, the NRC also plans to conduct training for camp management agencies (CMAs) and teachers on protection of this specific group of children.
Replacement, Care and maintenance of shelter units for IDPs in Kachin State The conflict broke out in mid-2011 after 17 years of cease-fire in Kachin State, displacing almost 100,000 persons. The majority of IDPs have been hosted in the religious facilities such as churches and monasteries in camp settings while some are being hosted by communities. Shalom Foundation has been one of the key actors in the response to this emergency.  Shalom has been providing shelter assistance since during June 2012. This project aims to continue providing shelter assistance to IDPs to address urgent shelter gaps. This includes construction of new shelter units, as well as replacement and care and maintenance of existing shelter units .
According to a needs assessment which was conducted in late 2015 in Shalom targeted camps, 95% of standard shelters (11ft x 18ft = 198 sq.ft) and 2% of under-standard emergency shelters (9ft x 9ft = 81 sq.ft) have been covered in the camps. 3% of IDPs households are still in need46 shelter unit, as some IDPs are still sharing shelters with 8 to 10 family members, whereas one unit of shelter is designed for 5 persons. In addition many shelters that have been constructed by humanitarian partners since between 2011 and 2013 have reached the end of their life span as they were intended to last two or three years. Therefore some shelters built in the early phase of the response are now in urgent need of repair, replacement and maintenance. There is still no guarantee for the safe and dignified return of IDPs to the place of origin, so it is important to consider maintaining minimum standards and quality of life during displacement.
Caritas Lubango, Participatory Citizenship The Justice and Peace Commission of Lubango aims at setting up and maintaining active justice and peace commissions in the 4 vicariates of the Archdiocese. These local commissions will meet at a regular basis and function as spaces of dialogue and activities that characterizes an active citizenry. The staff of the Archdiocesan Justice and Peace Commission will be trained as trainers in participatory techniques such as social monitoring, participation in formal consultative councils (CACS) and 2 other themes to be identified. They will use these skills to support and accompany the vicariate J&Ps in applying the techniques and tools for active citizenry. The Archdiocesan J&P team will carry out three participatory poverty assessments in collaboration with the vicariate J&Ps to bring attention to the socioeconomic conditions of the Archdiocese and use these to inform dialogue with decision makers. Armed with these tools the members of the vicariate J&Ps will seek active participation in their local consultative council and hence strengthen democracy and socio-economic justice in the country.

Angola Economic Justice Accompaniment Program The programme is a continuation of the accompaniment program initiated in 2004 with the Angolan Bishops Conference and its Peace and Justice Commission (ANG090) which produced significant results (see external evaluation and final progress in implementation report). The current programme consists of two interdependent projects. The project proposal submitted by the Angolan Bishop’s Peace and Justice Commission entitled Por uma Justiça Economica, adopting the title of the 2006 Pastoral Letter of the Bishops Conference for Angola and Sao Tome (CEAST) and the Economic Justice Accompaniment Project hosted by CRS Angola Trocaire, as the second Caritas/CIDSE working group member with a permanent representation in Angola, facilitates the collection and transfer of funds from the remaining European partners (Cafod, Cordaid, Misereor and Secours Catholique). 

The programme has three pillars: research, social monitoring and advocacy/networking. It furthermore has a specific focus on capacity building / sustainability. The thematic focus of the project is on promoting economic justice broadly defined as egalitarian, efficient, transparent and participatory socio-economic development. The focus is predominantly on the country’s extractive industries (mainly oil and diamonds) and the national budget process. The three pillars are interlinked in the sense that the Church wants to establish a strong knowledgebase in order to be able to advocate effectively around issues that are considered sensitive in the Angolan context. The social monitoring pillar is meant to bring socio-economic justice issues to the grassroots level in dioceses and parishes as the specific research and advocacy agenda will be more focused at the national and international levels due to the highly centralized nature of government decision-making.

Concepts such as research based advocacy, policy analysis and social monitoring are new for the Church in Angola and skilled accompaniment is needed to build up capacity of the partner to fully master these techniques. The accompaniment is based on a learning-by-doing approach.
Consultancy for following up of CAFOD Partnerships and Activities in Angola CAFOD has been working with church, Caritas Internationalis agencies and civil society organisations since the early 2000s.  The work has involved providing funding and technical support to partner led one-off and long term activities focused at alleviating poverty, promoting peace and reconciliation, public accountability and transparency, accompaniment to build the capacity of church partners and local communities; implementation of HIV & AIDS and sustainable livelihoods.   The management of the CAFOD partnerships and programme/projects in Angola was coordinated by the Regional Manager for West Africa and Great Lakes based in CAFOD London office. With the decentralisation of CAFOD operations to the regions and political evolution in Angola, CAFOD has shifted the Angola programme from the West Africa and Great lakes region to Southern Africa region. The responsibility to manage the partnerships and programmes has been passed to Southern Africa regional team in Harare. The actual handover the management responsibility was done at the end of 2007. A Consultant has therefore been hired to follow up CAFOD partnerships and activities in Angola and compile a report to the requirements of CAFOD.
PROG17-21_Outcome_Les enfants et jeunes en situation de rue à Ouagadougou sont réinsérés grâce à la mise en œuvre d’une stratégie de réhabilitation et de réintégration Estimée à 10 000, la population des enfants et adolescents en situation de rue est particulièrement vulnérable à Ouagadougou. En décrochage scolaire et familial, oubliés des programmes de formation et de prévention, ils tombent rapidement dans la délinquance, la drogue, la prostitution et la violence. Sans accès aux soins de santé alors qu’ils présentent d’importants risques de transmission d’IST et du VIH, tandis que les filles peuvent subir de surcroit des grossesses non désirées. Les représentations sociales négatives injustement construites rendent ce public particulièrement méfiant et favorisent des comportements caractériels. Broyés par cet engrenage, ces enfants et jeunes ont besoin de l’aide d’associations spécialisées comme Keoogo qui œuvrent depuis 2004 pour leur construire un avenir. Séduit par leur démarche et la qualité de leurs projets, MdM-Be soutient activement Keoogo depuis 2010. Travaillant en réseau avec une multitude de partenaires locaux et régionaux, Keoogo met en œuvre une stratégie qui allie prévention, accès aux soins de santé, soutien psychologique et réunification familiale lorsque c’est possible, le tout avec une dimension genre très affirmée. A côté de la réhabilitation physique et morale, c’est in fine la réintégration sociale du jeune individu qui est poursuivie. C’est pourquoi la formation professionnelle occupe une place importante dans la démarche d’intervention qui se veut avant tout pragmatique et non contraignante, dans le respect des droits de ces enfants/adolescents.
