Deliver life-saving WASH assistance to reduce acute needs among drought affected communities (including men, women, boys and girls) in Burhakaba in a dignified manner A historic fourth consecutive failed rainy season, skyrocketing commodity prices and an underfunded humanitarian response plan have resulted in a 160 percent increase in the number of people facing catastrophic levels of food insecurity, starvation, and disease in Somalia. More than 805,000 people have been displaced due to drought since October 2021.Nearly 50 percent of the population, 7.1 million people, now face crisis-level food insecurity or worse through at least September 2022.The 2022 March-May rainy season has not materialized and is likely to be the driest on record, devastating livelihoods and driving sharp increases in food, water, and nutrition insecurity. According FSNAU climate update 24th June,2022 severe water shortage, and increased reliance and use of water trucking were reported through mid-April 2022 in parts of northern and central regions with abnormally high water prices for livestock and human consumption. Water prices were significantly higher in March, April and May 2022 compared to five-year averages for 2017-2021 in most parts in central regions (7-21%), and in parts of southern Somalia: Shabelle (5-16%), Bakool (47-88%), Bay (11-37%), and Middle Juba (8-38%). Moreover, water prices in remote areas are much higher than water prices near main towns and urban areas where there are permanent water sources in northwest, northeast, and central. However, decreases in water prices compared to the five-year averages for April and May have also been reported in rural markets some regions: Lower Juba (38-55%), Bakool (2-26%), and Lower Shabelle (1-6%).According Somalia WASH Cluster, the current drought conditions have a devastating impact on the vulnerable population’s access to water both in terms of quantity and quality particularly in the worst-affected areas including Bay and Bakool region. Water is in critically short supply, exacerbating the health emergency. About 6.4 million Somalis lack access to safe water and sanitation, contributing to the spread of disease outbreaks. Over 6,861 suspected cases of acute watery diarrhoea/cholera have been reported in 2022 (gt130 per cent increase as compared to the same time last year) and 19 deaths have been confirmed. GRRN proposed to achieve this objective through life-saving emergency water trucking to 10,000 beneficiaries who were affected by the devastating drought and , rehabilitation of  3  strategic shallow wells with hand pump to ensure equitable access to safe water supply to 1,500( 720 women,480 men,180 girls and 120 boys) beneficiaries of the targeted communities and formation and training of 4 gender balanced water management committees, GRRN intends to construct 132 disaster, gender and disability sensitive communal latrines which are lockable from inside with culturally appropriate hand washing facilities for the drought displaced families and vulnerable host communities.. In order to ensure protection and disability inclusion GRRN will set aside 15% of the latrines(20) for people with disabilities and will provide 660 solar lamp to 660 families targeted with latrines and provision of sanitation tools for SWM activities. This will minimize risk of exclusion and GBV to women and girls. GRRN will use a market based approach constructed latrines under this proposed project as part of empowering local market and people while ensuring community with the skills to maintain the latrines for the purpose of sustainability. GRRN will also conducted distribution of hygiene kits, hygiene promotion activities community capacity building trainings to  8 CHPs, 4WMCs, 3 Water Quality monitors and 120 community members through PHAST training, Provision of sanitation tools and Solid waste management campaigns
