This document is structured into the following parts

1. SUGGESTED TIMELINE AND WORKFLOW FOR DEVELOPING FLASH APPEALS

2. SELECTED GUIDANCE DOCUMENTS AND OTHER RESOURCES

3. SUGGESTED CHECKLIST FOR DEVELOPING AND FINALISING INITIAL FLASH APPEAL IN-COUNTRY

4. APPEAL TEMPLATE (with guidance notes)

How to use this document This document contains a fully formatted, blank flash appeal template with integrated guidance sections,

highlighted in yellow, to assist in the drafting process. Once a final field draft has been completed by an appealing country team, parts 1 – 2, as well as the integrated

guidance notes, may be deleted leaving section 3 (checklist) and the completed appeal template to be sent to CHAP Section.

1. SUGGESTED TIMELINE AND WORKFLOW FOR DEVELOPING A FLASH APPEALNote on timing: flash appeal policy and practice have traditionally required a flash appeal to be published (that is, drafted in the field, reviewed by HQs, finalised by CHAP Section) within seven days of a disaster or decision to trigger an appeal. Level 3 policy calls for this period to extended to 10 days (five for drafting of a strategic response plan, a further five for cluster response plans). Although no decision has been made to apply L3 policy to non-L3 contexts, this may be both good practice and ultimately required, as well as needed in order to accommodate new steps and processes (notably MIRA and strategic response plan). Therefore, this suggested timeline has been extended by two days in the field to seven days. If a country team/HCT can complete a flash appeal sooner, there is no requirement to keep to the timing suggested below. However, taking longer than one/two days more than what is suggested is not recommended.

DAY STEP ACTIONS REQUIRED/BY WHOM

Prior to emergency

Suggested list of steps useful to take prior to an emergency Identification and analysis of baseline data (e.g. demographic [gender, age], economic, urban/rural), especially regarding at-risk zones or

vulnerable populations. Identification and analysis of risks and vulnerabilities. Pre-contacts with government and other national actors of concern (e.g. national Red Cross/Red Crescent Society). Agreement with government on what kind and scale of crisis would trigger an international appeal and (if sensitive) what appeal should be

called. Pre-formation of clusters/sectors and mapping of available capacity and identification of appeal focal point (if OCHA is not in-country). Drafting of generic flash appeal projects at country or regional level, based upon risk and vulnerability assessments, and in-country

humanitarian and government capacity. Familiarity with CERF processes and procedures. Preparedness and contingency planning.

Country team/country team/HCT, coordinated by RC/HC and in coordination with government and other relevant actors.

Immediately prior to likely emergency

Review contingency plan. Review, update and finalise roles and responsibilities. Review of response structures and mechanisms (‘refresher’ training). Contacts with out-of-country support (CHAP Section, CERF Secretariat, etc). Contacts with government counterparts.

Country team/HCT, coordinated by RC/HC.

If not already determined, one organisation assigned to lead and coordinate the response in each priority sector or area of activity (e.g. cluster/sector leads).

Operations area assigned (operations room, real or virtual). RC/HC in consultation with the country team/HCT.

If there is no OCHA presence in the affected country, an appeal focal point is assigned for consolidating inputs from agencies in the field. RC/HC assigns appeal focal point.

Initial discussions are held on the appeal’s overall direction, strategy, and criteria for selection of projects. These initial findings should be be consolidated into a draft strategic response plan, or common humanitarian action plan (CHAP) and shared with cluster/sector leads, who should then share it with partner organisations.

Discussions held on whether a CERF submission may be needed to jump start operations.

The RC/HC in coordination with the country team/HCT. OCHA/appeal focal point, in consultation with cluster/sector

leads.

Day 2 Work continues on the general sections of the appeal and the CHAP. OCHA/appeal focal point.

In parallel, work begins on putting together a CERF application, including beginning work on filling in the template for rapid response.

Rapid needs assessments or appraisals continue (or begin if not yet started). Assessment coordinator, in coordination with assessment technical and information management experts.

Each cluster/sector group meets at the national level with partner organisations to map capacity and assign roles and responsibilities within the sector or area of activity, lay out criteria for projects, following the guidance laid out in the CHAP.

Cluster/sector leads coordinate and facilitate the consensus building on project inclusion and draft response plans.

Partner organisations review available capacity and operations to determine whether they are able to participate in a flash appeal. Partner organisations.

START OF REVIEW PERIOD AT OCHA AND HQs OF IASC ORGANISATIONS PARTICIPATING IN THE APPEAL

Day 8 (day 1 of receiving final draft)

CHAP Section circulates final field draft to agency HQs, which have 24 hours to return comments on the document. Final comments from IASC headquarters due. OCHA CRD desk officer incorporates and reconciles HQs' comments, and returns document to CHAP Section.

Day 9 (day 2 of receiving final draft) CHAP Section performs final substantive review, style-checks, uploads project information onto OPS/FTS, and formats the document.

THE APPEAL IS FINALISED AND PUBLISHED: IF A LAUNCH IS PLANNED THIS TAKES PLACE AT IDENTIFIED TIME/PLACE(S)

Notes

There is a difference between ‘finalising’ an appeal (publishing it) and ‘launching’ it (an event): not all appeals are launched, although all are finalised. Some appeals are launched in the field, some in Geneva/NY, and some in multiple locations.

Scheduling launches: experience has shown that a launch meeting must NOT be scheduled either at HQ or in the field until the final field draft of an appeal is received in Geneva, and CHAP Section has been able to verify the content and quality, otherwise the final document may not be ready for the launch.

Printing: unless otherwise specified or required, initial flash appeals are not printed by CHAP Section other than for launch events (if one is organised). Once the final field draft is gone from the field, any last minute changes must go to appealing agencies’ IASC HQ reviewers or the appropriate desk officer involved in the

appeal process.

Definitions Final field draft: the final draft of an appeal that has been approved by the Resident/Humanitarian Coordinator (or their designate), and which has been sent to CHAP

Section. Once a final field draft has been sent, no further changes will be authorised to the text from the field without first checking/clearing it with CHAP Section, or following a specific CHAP Section request to do so.

Finalising an appeal: the process by which a final field draft is reviewed by the IASC CAP Sub-Working Group, OCHA CRD, and CHAP Section. The review involves verification by the HQs of participating IASC agencies of the text and projects, submission of corrections/amendments, and the final formatting, style checking, and financial review by CHAP Section.

Publishing an appeal: once a draft has been finalised by CHAP Section, it is sent to member states and posted to Reliefweb, and to http://www.unocha.org/cap/. At that point, the appeal is considered published, and may be used or referred to officially.

Launching an appeal: a formal event whereby a published appeal is presented, usually to member states and other interested parties. In NY and Geneva, launches are usually organised by OCHA (by the Coordination Response Division (CRD) in either NY or Geneva). The organisation of local launches is at the discretion of the country office, but they must be coordinated with CRD, and the material used (i.e. presentation of the appeal, briefing documents, maps) should be the same/not contradict information given at Geneva/NY launches.

3. SUGGESTED CHECKLIST FOR DEVELOPING AND FINALISING INITIAL FLASH APPEAL IN-COUNTRYOverall strategy and process Notes/commentsThe presentation of the situation, and the need for an appeal, is clearly presented. Must be yes

The Preliminary Scenario Definition (PSD) should have helped in this.

The evidence of needs is clearly presented, with sources footnoted. Must be yes

There is a clear link between strategic objectives and cluster/sector response plans. Must be yes

The projects focus on, and cover as much as possible, the needs and priorities identified in the common humanitarian action plan (CHAP).

Must be yes

The projects have been selected through a vetting process applying clear selection criteria. Should be yes

Ensure that one focal point is assigned to coordinate the drafting process in-country, and to liaise with CHAP Section. Should be yes

Having one focal point ensures that there is one ‘master’ version of the draft at any one time, helps maintain the integrity of the document and the process, and improves information exchange.

Internal document consistencyThe one-page Summary clearly states the appeal’s timeline and the funding requested. Must be yes

The ‘key parameters’ in the Summary are completed. Should be yesThis box gives you the opportunity to put the key messages and facts of the flash appeal in one spot.

The overall number and definition of affected people (and of beneficiaries, if they differ) is clearly stated in the Summary, and is consistent throughout the document.

Must be yes

The number of affected people is broken down by each of the categories included in the definition (for example IDPs, IDP host communities, flood affected, severely food-insecure), and also by gender, and by location if appropriate and if this information is available.

Must be yes Consider representing this information in table form.

Each cluster/sector response plan clearly states the number and definition of affected people and beneficiaries for its sector, and those numbers are consistent throughout the document.

Must be yes

The document is consistent in its use of describing numbers of affected people: either individuals, or families/households, or both together, but not varying between the two randomly.

Should be yes

Failure to be consistent here will result in unnecessary confusion and delay as potential discrepancies are resolved, particularly during the IASC HQ review process.

All tables, maps, graphs, or charts are recent or recently updated, and they are referred to and/or substantively discussed in the text. They all contain a title, source of information and “as of” date.

Must be yes

CHAP Section can liaise with OCHA’s Visual Unit to provide maps, graphs and tables, which will be created on the basis of information in the text (hence the need for clarity and consistency in the document).

The labelling of clusters/sectors is consistent throughout the document. Must be yes Check in particular the response

plans, and Section 4 (roles and responsibilities).

All cluster/sector leads or co-leads are listed in the response plans. There is a table or chart showing humanitarian coordination structures.

Must be yes

Every acronym is spelled out at its first appearance in the text. Acronyms are used only for phrases that appear more than twice. Should be yes

In particular, please ensure that local acronyms (i.e. local NGOs and associations, Government departments) are spelt out. Failure to do so will result in potential delay during the IASC review as we try to contact you on missing/unknown acronyms.

ProjectsThe projects have been approved by the cluster/sector lead and reviewed by the Resident/Humanitarian Coordinator (HC). Must be yes

All project fields should be clearly filled in, in particular: the appealing agency(ies) the title the objectives (in concise form) the beneficiaries the amount requested

Must be yes for all points

On funding requested: Amounts requested are always

gross requirements, not net of funding already received.

If it is a joint project (two appealing agencies) the total budget requested must show the division between the two

agencies.

Cover and attachmentsThe draft appeal has a cover photo Should be yes If the country team cannot find a

photo, CHAP Section can try to do so. Photos should mean something.

For example use a close up of a beneficiary with a background reflecting humanitarian interest (sectoral: food distribution, education, health, shelter, water…) or, in case of natural disaster, a background showing the impact of the catastrophe.

Each picture must have photo credits: Agency (or photographer’s name), country name, and the year.

Definition: slide or high-resolution digital copy (700kb + 1536x2048 (in *.jpg 300 or 600dpi))

Any photos used inside the document are captioned/credited. Must be yes

Maps and charts are: the most recent models available if sent as separate files in editable form (either in Word or Excel)

Should be yes: if up to date

maps/graphs unavailable,

please state why clearly

CHAP Section can insert any attachments as long as clear instructions are left on where to place them in the document.CHAP Section can also liaise with OCHA’s Visual Unit to provide maps, graphs and tables.

[APPEAL TEMPLATE FOLLOWS]

CHAP Section will insert the cover, but the field must provide a photo Ideally landscape format Photos should mean something . For example use a close up of a beneficiary with a background

reflecting humanitarian interest (sectoral: food distribution, education, health, shelter, water…) or, in case of natural disaster, a background showing the impact of the catastrophe.

Each picture must have photo credits : Agency (or photographer’s name), country name, and the year. Definition : slide or high-resolution digital copy (700kb + 1536x2048 (in *.jpg 300 or 600dpi)).

1. SUMMARY

Guidance1 PAGESome readers may only read the summary, so it needs to be concise, as well-written as possible, and should state no more than three clearly articulated messages, in one page. The crisis – what happened, when, where, [why], to whom? What are the priority needs and the humanitarian response plan for the

appeal’s six-month time span? What is the amount of money needed in US$?Consider using the Key Parameters box to succinctly outline the key elements: doing that will leave you more space in the narrative for explanatory text.

Basic humanitarian and development indicators for (country)GuidanceThe table below is designed to show a snapshot of the affected country through using some basic standard humanitarian and development indicators. The sources for the information mentioned are not obligatory for the HCT to use, but have been found by CHAP Section to be the most reliable, and allow for aggregation and comparison across all appeals. If the HCT can/does not have access to this information, CHAP Section can complete it. This table can help in convincing donors of the severity of the crisis. Please provide the most recent data for each, and specify the source of data (as in the examples below). Show the trend over time if possible, or consider using the “regional averages” column. If you do not have regional information, CHAP Section may be able to fill it in from other sources.

Preliminary scenario definitionApproximately 72 hours after the onset of a sudden emergency, a reasonable picture of the situation should have emerged from the analysis of secondary and initial primary data. By then, assessors should have translated their conclusions into clear and easily accessible results so that a preliminary scenario definition (PSD) can be circulated. Its added value is to provide a summary of the:

pre-crisis situation nature of the disaster scope and magnitude (areas, population affected) immediate post-disaster developments key humanitarian priorities

The preliminary scenario definition is intended to promote a shared understanding of the situation in the humanitarian community. As such, it should be shared and discussed with the HCT and cluster/sector leads as early as possible before being made public.

As the review of secondary data continues on a rolling basis, assessment teams may wish to update the preliminary scenario definition periodically after its first production.

Guidance on developing a PSD is available here2

2. CONTEXT AND RESPONSE

2.1 Context Guidance on the contextIDEALLY 4 – 5 PAGES FOR ALL OF SECTION 2

IDEALLY 1.5 PAGES FOR THE CONTEXT What happened? Where? Who is affected? Give figures on affected populations, including numbers and type of population affected

by the emergency, disaggregated to the extent possible by gender and age, and any other specific or relevant manner (e.g. number of disaster-induced IDPs, persons affected by region, livelihood, etc). (Note: do not write “affected” without defining what you mean by affected in this context).

What has happened since the onset of the crisis? (e.g. information gathered, government response, government agreement to/request for international assistance, immediate response by agencies, assessments done, etc.).


Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit. Maecenas porttitor congue massa. Fusce posuere, magna sed pulvinar ultricies, purus lectus malesuada libero, sit amet commodo magna eros quis urna.

2.2 Response to date Guidance on response to dateIDEALLY 0.5 – 1 PAGE FOR THE RESPONSE TABLE Outline concisely (in tabular form, for example) what has been accomplished to date by cluster/sector. As

far as possible, an agency-specific review should be avoided: this has the tendency to offer a fragmented and sometimes partial review of what has been done. A cluster/sector-based response offers a more holistic appraisal;

Indicate what has been accomplished by other actors (bilaterally, International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement, etc.);

Identify remaining gaps

Note: if a CERF application has been submitted, but not yet approved, only mention it has been submitted. If, however, the submission has been accepted, you may reference the full amount of CERF funding forthcoming.

3. NEEDS ANALYSIS

GuidanceIDEALLY 1.5 – 2 PAGESWhere the Context sets out what has happened, who is affected, and where, this section sets out how these populations have been affected by the emergency by identifying the needs, and what needs to be done to respond to them. The Preliminary Scenario Definition should already have identified Questions that should guide this process are, for example:

What are the needs (of specific groups, disaggregated by sex and age as far as possible) as a direct and immediate result of this crisis? (Use inference if necessary, and specify the basis for inference).

What would be the needs in the best, worst, and most likely scenarios (if major uncertainty exists)? What are the priority sectors/areas for response? What are the cross-cutting issues?

Maps and photos can be useful here, as can tables and charts, for succinctly presenting information. There are a number of tools to support humanitarian actors to assess both general and specific programming needs during a humanitarian crisis, both agency- and sector-specific. Some of these tools are referenced in the section on Selected Guidance Documents (at the front of this template). If possible, efforts should be placed to coordinate assessments so as to ensure efficient use of resources and achieve the most accurate and comprehensive needs assessment in the time available.


3.1 Drivers of the emergency What are the main drivers and root causes of the humanitarian crisis? How are these phenomena inter-acting to cause humanitarian consequences?


3.2 Scope of the crisis and number of people in needHow many people are affected (see note on definitions below); who and where are they; and what is their demographic profile?

If, as is often the case, this crisis is situated in a context of generalized vulnerability and deprivation, what is the HCT‘s threshold to distinguish humanitarian need?

Of those affected how many people are in need, disaggregated by sex and age, combining all clusters? How many people in need are being reached currently (if applicable)? What is the geographic concentration or pattern of people in need?

Note on definitions for the proposed table: Affected people (not shown on this table) include all people whose lives have been affected in some way

by the crisis. Not all affected people need humanitarian aid. People in need comprise those affected people who require humanitarian aid (of a type relevant to this

cluster/sector) in some form. People in need are thus a sub-group of affected people.

3.3 Status of the people in need To what extent will local and national capacity cover the needs? What is the current status and trend in key humanitarian indicators (mortality, morbidity and

dignity/quality of life) among people in need? What is the condition of people in need in terms of livelihoods, protection, and access to and use of

basic services and goods? What are the local coping mechanisms of people in need? What are the key manifestations of humanitarian needs (summarize per sector)? How are the needs inter-related with one another? (Refer to the Needs Analysis Framework’s

chevron diagram, available here)3

Are there differences of need among male, female, different age groups (young children, adolescent, adults)?



3.4 Priority humanitarian needsWhat humanitarian needs are causing excess mortality and morbidity and life without dignity, and which are the highest priority?

(Note that needs that are time-critical may be priorities even if they are not currently causing excess mortality etc., like supporting a successful planting season to reduce food insecurity and malnutrition some months later at harvest.)

4. THE COMMON HUMANITARIAN ACTION PLAN

4.1 Planning scenarioIf you have completed a preliminary scenario definition (see Section 1: Preliminary Scenario Definition) there is no need to restate a most likely scenario here. Simply insert here the scenario from the PSD. The sub-headings herein are the same.

If you have not done a PSD, then the purpose of specifying the most likely scenario (hence the one on which planning is based) is to ensure that the response plan looks beyond current snapshots and anticipates key variables and developments (and the humanitarian consequences thereof).

How to identify the most likely scenario: you identify your main (most influential) drivers or variables, and the most likely trajectory or forecast for each. (To avoid unnecessary detail, cite only drivers that can importantly affect humanitarian needs.) See additional guidance in the attachment below:

4.2 The humanitarian strategy and strategic objectivesWrite your strategy as a brief text that answers these key questions:

What are the overall visionary goals of humanitarian action in this crisis? Which needs are being addressed by the affected country government and other actors, and how are

these leaving gaps which the organizations in this appeal will fill What therefore are the boundaries (or ‘parameters,’ or ‘scope’) of your flash appeal, in terms of the

caseload, types of need, and types of intervention that humanitarians will make under this plan?

- Most flash appeals take place in situations of generalized vulnerability, impairment of basic services, and developmental neglect. In these conditions, humanitarian need can be detected almost anywhere in the country, and humanitarian organizations do not have enough funding or capacity to address them all.

- After needs analysis, the HC and HCT therefore have to set the boundaries of needs and response as a crucial part of the appeal’s strategy. These boundaries can be geographic, demographic, deriving from clusters, temporal, or based on finer measurements of vulnerability – whatever combination serves best in your context to draw the line between what the HCT must achieve and what is secondary, or what must be left to development actors. This is where you state, implicitly or explicitly, what the humanitarian system in country will not do.

How will the HCT and clusters ensure coverage of the highest-priority needs? What are the dilemmas regarding how to best use humanitarian resources in this situation, and what is

the HCT’s decision on each dilemma? How will the HCT mitigate key challenges like access, security, or capacity gaps? What actions relevant to humanitarian strategy are planned in other programming tools such as national

recovery plans, Common Country Assessment/UN Development Assistance Framework, World Bank poverty reduction programmes, or bilateral aid programmes? Be specific.

See additional guidance in the attachment below:


Explanation of strategy


Strategic objectives and indicatorsMake sure your strategic objectives have these qualities:

They state the (feasible) results that you must achieve (expressed as humanitarian impact, or actions necessary to enable humanitarian operations).

They are specific enough to help you focus the response and differentiate between what relates to it and what does not.

They are clear and compelling enough to persuade organizations to change their programming, and donors to change their funding, if necessary, to achieve them.

They reflect the gender-specific needs of women, girls, boys and men, as identified by a gender analysis.

They are “SMART” – specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time-bound

Strategic indicators The HCT should approve about four to six indicators that will measure achievement of the strategic

objectives and the corresponding targets. These strategic indicators will normally be a mix of:- Those that measure the process or outputs of humanitarian response (e.g. “proportion of displaced

women, girls, boys and men who receive full and regular humanitarian assistance according to SPHERE standards”);

- Those that measure the impact of humanitarian response (e.g. “incidence of water-borne disease among displaced people”), and;

- Those that measure the upstream worsening or improvement of the crisis, (e.g. “number of newly displaced women, girls, boys and men”).

13


Note: You do not have to artificially expand the list of strategic indicators to include representatives of every cluster; choose a manageable and measurable list of those that best represent the macro-level humanitarian situation and desired impact of humanitarian actions, and which can be measured quickly (i.e. before the revision of the appeal, one month after the initial appeal is launched).

Criteria for selection and prioritization of projects

Selection criteria

When you have set the objectives, including the boundaries for what is in—and not in—the appeal, consider setting criteria for selection of projects. The following examples can help:

The project directly preserves life, health, or safety of affected populations The project reduces aid dependence or restore priority infrastructure with a time-critical factor (i.e. within

the six months of this appeal) The project provides essential common services that enable such actions The appealing agency must have been in the country at the time of the emergency The appealing agency must have a proven track record in implementing the activities it is appealing for The project must be cost-effective in terms of the number of beneficiaries and the needs to which the

project intends to respond Wherever possible, the project shall include national NGOs and other national partners The project must not duplicate another one


Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet

14


Prioritization criteria

Prioritisation is not the same as selection. Once a project and its activities have been selected, those projects and activities can then be prioritized into, in line with the appeal’s strategic objectives, what are the most urgent life-saving activities which need to start immediately in order to have the most impact.Prioritisation is not compulsory for the first edition of a flash appeal, but it will strengthen it if you are able to do it. Two methods can be used.

Each cluster can specify a limited list of top-priority caseloads, locations, and activities. The confluence of these three—the top-priority actions for the top-priority people in the top-priority locations—forms the cluster‘s top priorities. If the cluster wants to take the further step of signalling which projects address these top priorities, that would be useful, and can be recorded in the appeal (e.g. a summary financial table showing financial requirements per priority level.

Alternatively, you can prioritise activities along a set of common criteria. The most useful is perhaps temporal criteria, or criteria which govern the various phases of the response, i.e. which life-saving activities must start immediately or which are time-bound, which activities can be considered as having a longer start-up or which can be started later in the response.

CLUSTER RESPONSE PLAN TEMPLATE AND GUIDANCEFor each cluster/sector that the HCT decides to include:

specify the cluster/sector lead; describe the needs that the sectoral response plan is aiming to meet, including gender-specific needs; state the objectives (bearing in mind the need to issue the appeal fast, there should not be an exhaustive

list, but each should be specific and measurable); states the expected outputs and impacts include projects designed to respond to the assessed needs: recall that p reliminary funding requirements

in a rapid first edition should be commensurately disciplined and conservative . Budgets should be in line with initial information and in-country capacity.


(NUMBER) (NAME OF CLUSTER)

Cluster lead agency(ies):

Sectoral objectives

Guidance (relevant to all clusters/sectors participating in the appeal)IDEALLY 1 PAGE PER CLUSTER/SECTOR + ADDITIONAL PAGES FOR PROJECTS

Recall that, with the need to issue the appeal fast, the objectives do not need to be an exhaustive list of what will be undertaken. The cluster/sector should present between three and six SMART objectives – specific, measurable, attainable, relevant, and time-bound – linked to indicators (which will be expounded in the Expected outcomes (see below). These may be a mix of process objectives, like outputs, and results objectives, like outcomes.

Consider as well that, at the time of the revision (approximately a month after this initial version is released) clusters will base their revised response plans on a combination of new information, and in terms of what was planned and identified as objectives and activities. Reporting on a limited number of tightly focused objectives (and associated outcomes and indicators), instead of a long, exhaustive list, will be far easier, and be more meaningful and impactful. Good advice to follow in constructing objectives would then be to try to link them tightly to the activities and expected outcomes. This can be done by, for example, assigning numbers to the objectives, and following that number system through, as was done in this extract from the 2010 Kyrgyzstan Flash Appeal Health Cluster response plan.

Cluster objectives1. Provide all wounded with life-saving and post-operative care.

Strategy and proposed activities1. Provide all wounded with life-saving and post-operative care. This entails having in place surgical service delivery systems including essential surgical equipment, medicines and supplies in selected surgical health facilities of Osh and Jalal-Abad for life-saving and post-operative surgical care of wounded. (~2,000 beneficiaries)Expected outcomes Reduced mortality and reduced rate of post-operative complications among wounded patients

This model helps to maintain consistency, and avoids the text becoming disjointed or disassociated. You may also consider dividing the projects up into those corresponding to the various objectives, as was also done for Kyrgyzstan.

On a point of internal consistency, it is very important that the document, particularly the projects, is consistent in the way it describes numbers of affected people: either individuals, or families/households, or both together, but not varying between the two randomly. Failure to be consistent here will result in confusion and delay, particularly during the IASC HQ review process.

Guidance What is the strategy for achieving the objectives? This should be elaborated in terms of the planning

assumptions and scenario which should have been agreed to by the HCT as part of any initial discussion on the appeal;

What are the humanitarian actions that can be implemented within the time span of this flash appeal (maximum six months)?

Early recovery activities – and related needs and projects – should be identified and mainstreamed within each cluster/sector as appropriate, in line with the responsibility placed upon all clusters by the IASC Cluster Working Group on Early Recovery, and in line with the specific guidance on early recovery in flash appeals


Expected outcomes

Guidance What is it that you hope or expect to achieve? What indicators, linked to the cluster/sector objectives, will be used to mark progress?

Projects

Guidance on projectsAppealing organisations produce projects, and budgets for them, that a) correspond to the overall objectives and criteria set for the appeal by the RC/HC, and b) correspond to the cluster/sector objectives as elaborated by the cluster lead in relation to the overall objectives of the appeal. A flash appeal project box is deliberately concise, in keeping with the need to produce the appeal quickly. Admittedly, this might be unreflective of the significant amount of work – by the individual appealing organisation, by the cluster/sector, by the cluster/sector lead – that took place to get it to this point. When it comes to appealing organisations and clusters setting priorities, establishing assessment methodologies, or designing templates for cluster/sector members to submit proposals and input, any form or format may be used.

However, when it comes time to incorporate that material into the flash appeal, a flash appeal project box should look only like this:

Example from 2009 Philippines Flash AppealNote: CHAP Section will assign project codes to all projects

Guidance on reporting funding received to dateProjects should always report gross requirements, that is, the total amount required for a project irrespective of any funding received to date. If an organisation already has funding, in whole or in part, for a project it is submitting then that funding information should be submitted to FTS ([email protected]); this funding information can be included for information purposes when submitting the final field draft, but it will not be included in the finalised appeal. The only exception to this rule is CERF, only if already allocated before the appeal is finalised (see below).

Example from 2008 Kenya Flash Appeal

Guidance on multiple appealing agenciesA project may have more than one appealing agency, if this reflects a reality that the project is shared. However, each agency must state its specific portion of the appealed amount (this is to reflect the reality that donors commit funds to one agency at a time, not jointly under one contract to two or more agencies). If no such breakdown per agency within a shared project is stated, FTS will split the overall project amount equally. The following table shows how to reflect multiple appealing agencies:

UNHABITAT: 500,000Total: 1,000,000

Example from 2008 Bolivia Flash Appeal

Guidance on submission of projects directly from agency HQsAgency headquarters sometimes submit additional projects directly to OCHA CHAP Section during the period of headquarters review. This is permissible in a fast-moving situation, but in these cases it is necessary for the agency to accompany the new project with evidence of the RC/HC’s approval (deadlines do not allow the OCHA CHAP Section to contact the RC/HC and await approval in the short period between agency HQ comments and publication).

Agencies with limited or no presence in the affected country (e.g. regional offices only) may contact the appeal focal point in the field to incorporate the projects while the appeal is still being developed in the field. OCHA CHAP Section can put such agencies in touch with the field focal point. If that is not feasible, they can, as a last resort, submit projects with the RC/HC’s approval during the headquarters review period. However, agencies which do this should be prepared to answer questions relating to their capacity to implement projects within the appeal’s timeframe.
