Coordination

Appealing Agency * OCHA (EMERGENCY RESPONSE FUND) (OCHA (ERF))Project Title Humanitarian Response FundProject Code KEN-09/SNYS/21855Sector/Cluster CoordinationObjectives To improve the effectiveness of humanitarian response through timely,

predictable humanitarian financing.Affected populations and other vulnerable groups in KenyaBeneficiaries

Implementing Partners N/AProject Duration Jan 2009 - Dec 2009Funds Requested $5,000,000

Needs

High levels of vulnerability and recurrent shocks – including drought, floods, localised tensions and refugee inflows - have led to the ongoing presence of humanitarian needs in Kenya. The overall objective of a Humanitarian Response Fund (HRF) for Kenya is to improve the effectiveness of humanitarian response through flexible, timely and predictable humanitarian financing at the country level and to promote preparedness activities to mitigate the effects of an emerging crisis. The Fund would be at the disposal of local and international NGOs, UN agencies and the Red Cross/Crescent Movement who are deemed to have sufficient capacity and capability and credibility with local authorities and/or communities to undertake appropriate humanitarian interventions based on assessed needs either directly or through partnership. Interventions funded by the HRF will complement other emergency programmes and emergency funding mechanisms (including the CERF and individual agency contingency funds).

Activities

a) Support rapid response needed at the onset of disasters and crises before mainstream responses come on line. Normally these responses would seek to provide life saving interventions and/or prevent further erosion of livelihood assets and coping mechanisms of the affected communities;b) Strategically fill gaps in non-food interventions, geographically or sectorally, within the context of an overall response plan; c) To provide support to critical preparedness or recovery activities in the absence of alternative funding sources.

The HRF would be managed by OCHA on behalf of the Humanitarian Coordinator through a consultative approval process among a nominated Advisory Board within the specific and agreed guidelines and the rules and regulations of the UN Secretariat.

Outcomes

• Improvement in the timeliness of response at the onset of disasters.• A reduction in sectoral and geographic funding gaps.• Critical preparedness and recovery activities supported.

Implementing Partners MoSSP, URAIA (National Civic Education Programme), Donor Coordination Group, OXFAM, ACF, Eminent Personalities, OCHA, UNHCR, UNDP

Project Duration Jan 2009 - Dec 2009Funds Requested $700,000

Needs

The inter-agency advocacy working group in collaboration with government counterparts will focus its activities on the most critical humanitarian issues identified along the year. The advocacy strategy aims to increase awareness of humanitarian crises in the country, mobilise resources to address these and facilitate humanitarian action. The humanitarian needs stem from the post-election violence in 2008 that led to the displacement of 350,000 IDPs. In addition, the failure of the rains as well as floods has led to food insecurity as well as resource based conflict. Peace and reconciliation activities remain important for the restoration of livelihoods for the returning population and those in transit sites. Key issues requiring advocacy include conflict transformation and peace and reconciliation; need to achieve durable solutions for the IDPs; need for resource mobilisation and increased funding for preparedness; and a need to raise awareness on violation of human rights.

Activities

• Support HC/IASC to develop advocacy messages and undertake joint advocacy strategies with partners to highlight key humanitarian issues of concern in the country. • Provide continuous information to donors to build awareness on funding requirements, shortfalls, and emergency needs and support high-level visits and engagement on humanitarian issues.• Organise inter-agency field missions with interested donors and media, support public information events and produce advocacy material (books, brochures, briefing packs).• Create community awareness of the English and Kiswahili versions of the IASC Guiding Principles on Displacement.

Outcomes

• Actionable communication and understanding of conflict transformation.• Broad public awareness of the IDP Guiding Principles and the need for peace, reconciliation and harmonious living.

Early recovery and food security

Appealing Agency * INTERNATIONAL ORGANIZATION FOR MIGRATION (IOM)Project Title Livelihoods Support for the Reintegration of Returning IDPs and Affected

Communities in Rural and Urban AreasProject Code KEN-09/ER/20810Sector/Cluster Early recovery and food securityObjectives To mitigate the negative impacts of return and reintegration on IDPs through the

support for livelihoods of up to 8,000 affected families.Returning Families, Non Displaced and Host CommunitiesBeneficiaries

Implementing Partners Early Recovery NetworkProject Duration Jan 2009 - Dec 2009Funds Requested $2,360,000

Needs

Since May 2008, the Government of Kenya has encouraged IDPs to return their homes under the operation, Rudi Nyumbani (Return Home). Most IDPs – both in camps and hosted – have returned their home areas. Most of these families lost their homes, assets, equipment and businesses. Coping mechanisms were severely taxed as a result of the Post Elections Violence; compounded by global shocks such as the food crisis. Vulnerability can only increase if livelihoods concerns are not addressed. Livelihoods support and restoration is integral to effective reintegration of returning and affected families both in rural and urban areas.

Activities

Building on IOM’s experiences and actions during the Kenya Emergency response and recovery, this proposed project will focus on the provision of livelihoods support to Post Elections Violence affected families. These include returning, non-displaced and host families whose livelihoods were destroyed. Activities will include:

1. Coordination, mapping and collaboration with the Government and Early Recover Network members for the even and equitable distribution of livelihoods assistance for affected families;2. Community assessments and mobilisation for the identification of livelihoods beneficiaries;3. Skills training for the unemployed youth;4. Promotion of Income Generating Activities;5. Provision of Income Generating Grants; 6. Roll-Out of Voucher Scheme;

Outcomes

• Reduced vulnerability of up to 8,000 families through the provision of livelihoods support;• Improved environment for effective reintegration and recovery;• Community mobilisation and collaboration improved through support for livelihoods activities thereby creating an environment for peace and reconciliation; • Livelihoods opportunities improved through provision of skills, support for income generation, provision of grants and vouchers.

Implementing Partners Community Initiatives Facilitation and Assistance (CIFA) Neighbours Initiative Alliance (NIA) and local community network

Project Duration Jan 2009 - Dec 2009Funds Requested $235,000

Needs

An-going Market Watch since Aug. ’08 by Concern Kenya partners in Kajiado, Marsabit, Moyale indicate that rural households face up to 30% higher costs for essential items than urban residents. The terms of trade for pastoralists are such that while food and energy costs rise, the price of livestock especially in rural markets has changed little since January ‘08. One outcome is emergency selling of shoats to safeguard livelihoods in the short rather than the long-term. Inadequacy in local strategies and indicators of destitution are further shown in fragmentation of families e.g. youth with livestock to Nairobi city fringes, destructive harvesting of natural resources and inter -community conflict. Plant and animal biomass production is challenged with successive droughts, low investment in ASAL-tolerant species and breeds and specific factors such as distance travelled to water sources and the spread of the little known Pestes de Petit Ruminants (PPR). Support to borehole development without adequate attention to catchment protection and control of human and livestock disease at these sites can exacerbate a bad situation. Concern partners, CIFA in Marsabit and Moyale and NIA in Kajiado will support up to 10,000 households to boost crop and livestock production through indigenous plant species and animal breeds, improve access to water tied directly to disease control (human and livestock) at water points, and enhance the impact of community -based animal health care in emergencies. A specific fund is proposed specifically targeting women, children and the elderly remaining at home where men and youth have moved towards the urban area with livestock.

Activities

• Promote Red Maasai sheep and Galla goats and drought-resistant and nutritious crops. • Provide livelihood support to family members remaining in rural areas mostly women, children and the elderly.• Rehabilitate one community borehole and support rainwater harvesting and strategic water storage with provision for human and health disease control.• Support improved output of community animal health care and expansion of community –based livestock disease.

Outcomes

By the end of 2009 at least 10,000 households or an estimated 60,000 persons will have enhanced food security and resilience including the most vulnerable to shocks through:• Improved genetic base in ASALs for crop and livestock production. • Sustainable community-based water source management for human and livestock needs and shared responsibility across neighbouring communities.• An enhanced community-based animal health care programme.

Beneficiaries

Implementing Partners Ministry of Agriculture, NGOs, Ministry of Water, Kenya Agriculture Research Institute

Project Duration Jan 2009 - Dec 2009Funds Requested $2,150,000

Needs

Approximately 46% of the 35 million Kenyans lives below the poverty level. Welfare monitoring reports by Kenya’s National Bureau of Statistics indicate that, on average, rural and urban communities spend respectively 62 and 40% of their total income on food. With soaring food prices, the proportion of the population that will be unable to afford food is bound to increase. Although rising food costs were expected to benefit households that are net sellers of agricultural produce (crops and livestock), the post-election violence, increasing fuel prices, high input costs, poorly distributed rainfall during the long rains of 2008 and persistent drought in the arid and semi-arid lands (ASALs) have impacted negatively on agricultural production, resulting in very few net sellers. The prices of staple foods, especially maize and beans, have risen by between 32 and 80% in the last six months in different regions, with the greatest increases observed in rural farming areas.

Low production, together with increasing food prices, will result in the rural and urban vulnerable populations not being able to access food, a situation which may lead to hunger and malnutrition, and possibly provoke food riots.

Activities

• Identification of project areas and key stakeholders.• Identification and sensitisation of vulnerable households.• Agricultural input procurement and distribution.• Monitoring of project activities.• Impact assessments.• Strategic animal-health interventions.• Support to livestock marketing initiatives.• Support to fodder production and conservation.• Capacity building in milk production and processing.

Outcomes

• By the end of the project, 120,000 vulnerable people (some 20,000 households) will have increased their food production to cushion them against soaring food prices as well as the effects of drought.• Increased productivity of food crops on farm holdings owned by vulnerable groups as a result of the increased use of yield-enhancing inputs (fertilisers, high-yielding seeds and tools), and irrigation. • Enhanced crop and livestock production.• Stabilisation of food prices in project areas at the household level.

Needs

Nyanza province is a net importer of food with 50% of the population being food poor. Since the onset of post election violence, many already families have become more vulnerable due to increased numbers of displaced family members in their own households, as well as a loss of their remaining assets such as seeds and other agricultural inputs. This has been exacerbated by erratic weather conditions that have been experienced during the last two planting seasons and a general increase in food prices. As such, these families, along with the non-displaced poor, have been greatly affected by a severe loss of livelihood opportunities at a time when staple foods have increased by up to 300% due to the insecurity and a disrupted economic system. Therefore, urgent assistance is required in order to alleviate further suffering and prevent further deterioration of household livelihood coping mechanisms

Activities

• In collaboration with partners, target the most vulnerable households in the proposed district.• Train in improved agricultural practices (including improved production, and capacity development). • Identification and training of voucher redemption outlets. • Distribution of Vouchers to beneficiaries.• Monitoring, impact assessment and reporting.

Outcomes

• By the end of the project, 1500(9000 persons) vulnerable households will have increased their food production to cushion them against soaring food prices as well as the effects of erratic rainfall.• Increased diversity of food produced leading to enhanced nutrition.• Enhanced access to food.• Stabilised food prices in the project areas.

Needs

Samburu District in the Northern Pastoral Livelihood zone is one of the districts in Kenya that is hardest hit by the ongoing drought. Added onto the effects of the drought is the pestes petites ruminantes (PPR) outbreak that has killed an estimated 2.5 million goats and sheep (majority of these in Samburu and Turkana) in 17 districts in the country, as well as the resource based conflict in the Northern region that has led to the loss of about 30 lives and the theft of an estimated 2,000 cattle.

With the raging drought within the district, immediate needs include provision of water for both household and livestock needs through the excavation of water pans, the immunisation of shoats against diseases such as PPR (the current immunisation coverage is less than 25%). Among the farmers in Kirisia, the immediate need is to provide fast maturing and drought tolerant seed crop varieties which will take advantage of the short rains season beginning this month. To make all these possible, peace building interventions will also have to be incorporated within the food security project.

Activities

• 2,800 farmers within Kirisia Division adopt improved agronomic practices and conservation agriculture.• 1,900 farmers within Kirisia Division utilise on- farm rainwater harvesting technologies for improved crop production.• 124 community leaders trained on peace and conflict resolution between the Samburu and the Pokot, and making use of lessons learned for strengthened peace building initiatives.• 3,530 Beneficiaries get access to food through Food for Assets on creation of community assets and implementing on-farm water harvesting technologies using set guidelines. • Vaccination of sheep and goats against PPR in Lorroki division.• Improved livestock production through the introducing improved goat varieties and high quality bulls within Lorroki division.• Excavation of rainwater harvesting structures for household and livestock use within Lorroki and Kirisia Divisions.

Implementing Partners IRC is currently undertaking a process to identify potential partners and networks to implement the activities

Project Duration Jan 2009 - Dec 2009Funds Requested $750,000

Needs

The current climate of instability in Kenya is created mainly by the results of the post -election violence earlier this year, and the impending drought in the arid and semi arid regions that has created a worsening food crisis. The post-election violence resulted in the destruction of crops, the burning of businesses, and the loss of livelihoods. The lack of livelihoods is one of the main obstacles facing the 25,296 IDPs living in IDP camps and the 99,198 IDPs living in transit camps as of September 5th 2008. The global rise in food prices coupled with insufficient rainfall, livestock disease, crop failure and resource based conflicts among pastoralists have created widespread food insecurity in Kenya. For Turkana district, poverty is high with about 70% of the population living on less than a dollar a day. This district also has high malnutrition rates, especially among children, which result in high infant mortality rates. There are approximately 1.38 million people rated as highly food insecure that, without assistance, will be unable to meet their minimum food requirements by March 2009.

Activities

• Provide farm inputs and implements to displaced and non-displaced in Trans Nzoia region.• Spread livestock fattening practices in Turkana.• Establish and support seed systems and agricultural inputs in Turkana.• Train health technicians and community health workers in veterinary medicine practices and support livestock vaccination.• Conduct training on livestock raising and farming as businesses.• Support disaster preparedness, mitigation and management by assisting development of contingency plans, building capacity of local. Government to respond to disasters, and establishing disaster management sub-committees.• Provide training in nutritional improvement and encourage dry land farming systems that improve nutrition.

Outcomes

• Enhanced livelihoods for displaced and non-displaced in Trans Nzoia region.• Enhanced and diversified livelihoods for pastoralist and sedentary communities in Turkana. • Increased disaster preparedness and disaster response mechanisms put in place.

Parcels of land are therefore too small for meaningful agricultural production. As a result, there has been a lot of movement by people to mainly Rift Valley but also to other parts of Kenya to farm, work as tea pickers, etc. Many families have headed back to Kisii and surrounding areas. In addition, South Nyanza received over 50,000 IDPs some of whom are unwilling to return to the pre-violence areas.

The surge of internally displaced persons (IDPs) and their high level of food insecurity requires immediate attention. IDPs with parcels of land may be facilitated to carry out intensive agriculture whereas others will get into small business activities to support their livelihoods.

Activities

• Provision of farm inputs and implements to IDPs;• Training in low external input sustainable agricultural (LEISA)activities; • Training in Business Development Services (BDS) for IDPs without agricultural land;• Revolving fund to support BDS activities and other small enterprises;• Limited food and NFI support families within the community for six months.

Outcomes

• 4400 households hosting IDPs receive1,360.8MT food for nine months;• 4400 receive farm inputs and implements; • Increased knowledge and skills on LEISA activities for 4,400 households; • Increased agriculture based BDS services in the districts of intervention;• Increased sources of livelihoods for IDPs in the districts of intervention.

Needs

While the establishment of District Peace Committees is a great step towards a national framework for conflict transformation, there is need to provide support and linkages with the new structures of decentralised funds. Lack of conflict sensitivity in development planning is a major structural cause of recurrent conflicts in communities that are faced with scarce economic, natural and social resources. Thus the need to build this capacity through training district level security and development actors drawn from the government and development actors overseeing resource allocation and management in education, water, health etc sectors.

Activities

Conflict Sensitive Planning:• Four Regional Capacity Building programmes on Conflict Sensitive Planning. • Facilitating two Joint Evaluation of District Level Plans in ten districts.• Documentation and Sharing of Best Practices on the Conflict Sensitive Approaches. • Facilitate a learning tour for national government agencies.

Outcomes

• Adoption of Conflict Sensitive planning and evaluation within local devolved funds and district level development plans in ten districts.• Strong linkage between District Peace Committees and District Planning committees.• Support for Peace Building work integrated within available resources in the regions.

Needs

Although the top leadership has signed the national peace accord which contributed to ending violence in most parts of the country, people at the community level are yet to own the above mentioned process. It is in this regard that ACORD in Kenya undertook to implement a peace building project in the South Rift (Sotik and Borabu districts) aiming at translating the national peace accord into reality at the community level using the community social contract model used successfully in Burundi. This model has helped bringing together the two conflicting communities (Kisii and Kipsigis) through facilitated community dialogue. Some positive results such as re -opening of common markets, removal of barriers between villages and free movement of people, have already been witnessed. This contract binds them to prevent any future conflict and resolves disputes. This project has also two other components to strengthen and compliment peace namely: the provision of shelter kits and farm inputs to most affected persons by the Post Election Violence (PEV) as well as addressing crosscutting issues, namely gender and HIV/AIDS. There are two identified groups of People Living with HIV/AIDS who need support in terms of improving their livelihood; 1,000 people whose houses and business premises were burnt down; and 3,000 farmers in need of farm inputs and implements. They have become a burden for their hosts whose little resources have deteriorated and have no hope for any forthcoming assistance. ACORD’s intervention targets the IDPs in host families.

Activities

• Community peace building sessions.• Provision of shelter kits to beneficiaries.• Provision of farm inputs to beneficiaries.• Support PLWHA self help group through income generating activities.

Outcomes

• Joint Community Peace Committees formed to address and prevent conflicts. • IDPs living with host families return to their farms and rebuild their houses.• Most affected farmers are able to cultivate and plant during the main season.• PLWHAS self help group are involved in income generating activities and access easily ARVs.

Needs

As a result of the post election violence people were forced to abandon their livelihoods and many lost their assets to burning and looting. Small businesses were destroyed, resulting in loss of jobs and increase prices of food and essential items. In rural areas those forced to flee abandoned their crops, livestock and food reserves and have no access to income. The worst affected areas are those which had the best agricultural production and are the source of food to the rest of Kenya. The disruption of agriculture has had a wider impact on the availability of food. Many people are unable to re-establish their livelihoods even after the resumption of calm.

Activities

1. Establish ‘livelihood support groups’.2. Facilitate livelihood training sessions through Livelihood support groups.3. Provide livelihood start-up support through vouchers/ cash, seeds, farm inputs and farm implements.4. Facilitate follow up visits to support and advice on livelihoods and training needs.5.

Needs

Various livelihood assessments conducted by DRC in Molo district in the return areas reveal glaring gaps in respect to the livelihoods situation of the returnees and other affected persons in the greater Molo region. Most of the return areas are now calm and in urgent need of early recovery livelihood support. Most women and youth who had small businesses were destroyed and urgently need support to re establish them once again. For those who depend on agriculture, they are in need of agricultural inputs such as tools, fertiliser and pest sides. The area being one of the most productive areas in Kenya, will contribute to enhanced food security in the country.

To date, DRC has been able to support over 8000 households with agricultural inputs out of the 20,000 needy families in the region. DRC aims to reach 3000 returnees and other affected persons with agricultural inputs. However, not all returnees are farmers and DRC will support 200 families that require support in form of small grants to restore or establish their small businesses and link them with the already affected but recovering market chain. Peace building will be mainstreamed in all the activities.

Activities

• Beneficiary selection and distribution of agricultural kits and small grants.• Protection monitoring in the areas targeted.• Distribution monitoring, supervision and post distribution monitoring.

Outcomes

• Communities co-existing harmoniously.• Restored livelihoods in the targeted areas.• 3000 families supported with agricultural inputs.• 200 families assisted with business grants to restore or start destroyed IGAs.

Needs

Following Kenya’s disputed presidential election on 27th December, 2007 and the ensuing violence across the country, over 200,000 children were displaced from their homes and took refuge in camps and host communities with their families and neighbours. Since then, the challenge of providing these internally displaced children with educational services is being met by the Ministry of Education, with the assistance of UNICEF and other members of the IASC Education Cluster.

To better respond to the needs of these children, it is necessary to continue to support them in the learning processes which they have adopted and to provide access to quality education for all affected children. This is particularly the case for those learners who have dropped out of school in the aftermath of the post election violence (PEV) due to a lack of nearby school facilities, security considerations or due to other reasons such as taking care of their siblings or working as child labourers in the case of child-headed households.

Activities

• Promotion activities to increase attendance to attract the children who dropped out from school.• Provision of teaching and learning materials for children in the area (200,000 IDP children – ECD, Primary and Secondary and 200,000 children in host communities).• Training of 700 identified teachers—in peace education and in gender sensitive teaching methods.• Strengthening of the SMCs (School Management Committees) in all the schools in the area.• Strengthening of youth in life skills and peace education.• Field monitoring of education-related issues, including community relations, student learning, teacher’s performance, NGO performance.

Outcomes

• School aged children (pre, primary and secondary) have access to quality and relevant education opportunities, in a safe learning environment that promotes the protection and mental and emotional well-being of learners.• All the School Management Committees in the schools are strengthened and operational in the area.• The teachers in the PEV affected areas are trained on Peace education and gender sensitive teaching methods.• Youths empowered with life skills including peace education.

Needs

The districts of intervention did not experience destruction or vandalism in schools but received many families that fled the violence. The communities in eight districts host families of internally displaced persons (IDPs). The exact numbers are not yet concrete but those that have reported to the provincial administration are over 44639 . Of this figure, 23007 were of ages 6 to 18 years which is the range for school going children. In Kisii Central District where data was availed to the disaster management committee, the number of children was 7480 (3694 boys and 3786 girls) . Information from Provincial Secondary Schools indicates of over stretched infrastructure leading to sharing of desks, use of dining hall as dormitory, sharing of beds and inadequate sanitation facilities. The magnitude is not very clear in the region of intervention thus requiring data capture on the situation in all schools.

Activities

• Data collection from all schools on the impact of the violence on education in the region. • Hold planning meetings with school management committees and boards of governors in twenty schools. • Support 32 schools to increase and improve the facilities to meet standard educational requirements. • Facilitate professional counsellors to support guidance and counselling departments to provide counselling services to children from IDP families on trauma and gender based violence.

Outcomes

• Clear indication of the impact of post election violence on education in the region.• 32 most congested schools supported to cater for children from IDP families. • Over 22000 Children and 600 teachers receive trauma counselling and increased knowledge on Gender Based Violence.

Needs

Poverty levels in Malindi District are extremely high. Approximately 66% of the population is considered to be living in poverty, unable to meet basic food and non-food requirements. Small rains during the last raining season has seriously worsen food and water storage capacities of the population. If rains during the next raining season will not be abundant, the district will be affected by a serious water and food crisis. One of the most severe impacts of drought conditions will be on schools. Children will have to participate in fetching water, absenteeism might reach 40% and affected schools might close down.

With the aim of guaranteeing access to the education system to the most vulnerable children, the project intends to rehabilitate WASH facilities in pre-primary and primary schools, provide school feeding programs and child nutrition trainings, train teachers to enhance education quality and ensure child protection, and build the management capacities of rural management committees.

Needs

Following Rudi Nyumbani and the movement from established camps to transit camps, children in areas of return have been unable to access school due to poor school facilities and lack of materials. Early Childhood and Development (ECD) structures, previously supported by private contributions, have been disrupted. The Project aims to ensure that children in areas of return and children unable to access education are enrolled and retained in schools. Lack of food at schools has impacted on attendance so energy saving stoves will assist schools in cost effectively providing lunch. Many young people were involved in or affected by violence, and are now left without productive activity. The project will address their needs in terms of relationship building across communities, empowering them to voice their opinions constructively and assisting them in finding productive activity.

Activities

• Rehabilitate and Equip ECD and Primary Schools (including provision of energy saving stoves);• Provide teaching and learning materials to ECD and Primary schools affected by violence;• Provide NFIs to children to ensure attendance (uniforms, sanitary wear);• Train ECD teachers in age appropriate, child friendly pedagogy, child rights and participation;• Train children and youth in peer-peer back to school campaign;• Youth events to promote cross community understanding;• Establish school councils to ensure child representation in decision making processes;• Youth training in short work skills courses, apprenticeships and work placements.

Needs

The effects of these emergencies, drought and floods, are having a devastating impact on the education system as schools are either used as rescue centres, are partially or totally damaged, or are abandoned. It is estimated that about 300,000 school children and over 300 schools were affected by floods alone in 2007.

In the districts worst affected by the current drought, many school age children are dropping out of schools and spending their days looking for food. In some IDP areas it is reported that young girls and boys are engaged in activities which may put them at high risk of eventually dropping out of schools. Thousands of separated children are living in orphanages. Many more have been left behind alone, in child-headed households, while their parents try to re-establish their homes either because there are no functioning schools where they are returning to or partly out of fear of repeated violence. In such situations keeping schools open is vital as an emergency protection strategy.

Activities

• Promotion activities to increase attendance to attract the children who dropped out from school as a consequence of the drought and the floods.• Provision of teaching and learning materials for children in the area.• Facilitate training workshops on the recently developed national Emergency Preparedness and Response Plans (EPRP) and INEE minimum. Standards package, including contingency planning for multiple hazards for developing capacities of education managers (district officers, SMCs, inspectors…) at national, district and cluster levels.• Field monitoring of education-related issues, including community relations, student learning, teacher’s performance.

Outcomes

• School aged children (ECD, Primary and Secondary), in the affected areas, who dropped out are regularly attending school again.• Educational material distributed in the affected schools.• Teachers in the affected areas regularly evaluated on their performance.• Strengthened the SMCs (School Management Committees) in the schools in the affected areas.• The schools in the affected areas are regularly visited and monitored on the services offered (access and quality).• The people targeted is trained on the EPRP and INEE.

Implementing Partners Kenya Ministry of Health, health-related organisations (CBOs, NGOs, FBOs and associations)

Project Duration Jan 2009 - Dec 2009Funds Requested $1,357,407

Needs

During the recent-post election violence in Kenya, local communities were first to respond, followed by district and national government personnel. One of the main gaps identified after the crisis was the capacity of community-based health workers, including clinical officers, nurses, and medical doctors, to respond effectively to emergencies and deliver basic health care packages. Another critical need identified was for mechanisms to ensure greater coordination among health care providers when responding to emergencies. While guidelines on basic health care packages that should be provided in emergency settings exist, many community health care workers are unaware of them or know how to administer all of the required services.

CHF International has been building technical and organisational capacity of community-based health organisations in Kenya for the last four years and has key linkages with national, district and community health care providers throughout the country.

Activities

1. Develop training materials on heath sector risk reduction and emergency preparedness based on guidelines from UNAIDS, WHO, Kenya Ministry of Heath and Kenya Ministry of Special Programs. Content will include nutritional interventions, addressing diseases that are common in emergency and post-emergency settings, and health prevention messaging. 2. Train medical doctors, nurses, clinical officers, and community health workers on emergency preparedness and delivery of health care package. Training will also focus on organisational preparedness in terms of logistics, networking, coordination and resource mobilisation in emergencies. 3. Provide trainers of trainers to deliver subsequent trainings and ensure that capacity is built within communities to manage future emergencies. This activity will target heath workers in health related non-governmental organisations. 4. Work with existing heath care networks to develop and/or strengthen emergency response and disaster preparedness plans, establish coordination mechanisms and strengthen logistics capacity.

Outcomes

1. 5,000 health care workers trained on emergency preparedness. 2. 42 district-level health emergency networks (one per district) established, trained and readied to respond on short notice to future health emergencies. 3. Emergency health response logistic capacity established in 42 districts.

Needs

The three Mandera districts have higher-than-average morbidity and mortality rates relative to regions of Kenya. ADRA work in this area has shown that disease case loads are higher but access is very much limited leading to the high morbidity and mortality figures. Medical services are generally inadequate or unavailable to more than 50% of the population. Where health services are available, the combination of non-availability of drugs, lack of trained medical personnel and the very sparse distribution of health facilities make access a difficult one. This affects especially mothers and children negatively. Reducing distances covered to reach health facilities and making services closer home will reduce their vulnerability and improve health conditions in the area. Also, the high level of water contamination, lack of proper sanitation facilities coupled with the low level of hygiene contribute to the high morbidity.

Activities

• Establish a mobile health service to reach residents of eight divisions of Mandera through a scheduled program using trained health personnel.• Provide support to community health facilities to access drugs and medical supplies on a regular basis.• Through trained community health workers, promote hygiene and sanitation programs in the target communities.• Treat contaminated wells and promote safe water use.• Construct or rehabilitate sanitation facilities in the eight divisions and train community committees to maintain them.

Outcomes

• Increased access to medical services for improved health.• Reduced morbidity and mortality through timely treatment and prevention of disease outbreaks.• Improved sanitation coverage (latrines and solid waste management) and development of good hygiene.

Needs

Since the beginning of 2008 there have been cholera and Kala azar outbreaks in the northern arid and semi arid areas of Kenya affecting three provinces and over 40 districts. These areas are also hosts to the IDPs during the PEV. By July 2008, 2,166 cases of cholera with 83 deaths (cfr = 3.8%) and 174 cases of Visceral leishmaniasis and nine deaths (cfr = 5.2%) were recorded. Kenya also has HIV epidemic (prevalence rate of 7.8%) hence impact of disasters on HIV transmission and service continuity during disasters is significant. WHO and MoH assessment following the PEV showed that, the emergency health and life saving indicators had declined; the national immunisation coverage dropped to 65% from 79% reported in March 2007 and the Weekly disease surveillance reporting rate also fell from 80% to 40%. Similarly, surveys conducted between March and April 2008 in eight districts indicated nutritional levels of between 20 and 29.8% (GAM) whilst severe acute malnutrition (SAM) was between 1.2% to 3.5%. Increasing food prices aggravate infectious diseases outbreaks. People living with HIV/AIDS or tuberculosis, pregnant and lactating women will also be greatly affected by decreased access to required food, health care and medication. In addition, these areas are also prone to flooding, lies in the meningitis belt and hosts the refugees with high risks of disease outbreak

Activities

• Improve emergency EWARN for epidemic diseases, malnutrition, HIV, water quality surveillance in four provinces and 30 district teams.• Train 30 provincial and district teams in ASAL and semi arid areas on disease outbreak investigation and other emergencies response and orient 100 people on HIV in emergency. • Provide basic field laboratory investigation package for 30 districts and four provincial hospitals for diseases of epidemic potential in ASAL and semi arid areas.• Conduct joint rapid health, nutrition and HIV assessments in affected areas. • Provide basic health care services (Essential drugs, Emergency and reproductive health kits) for static and outreach services. • Provide essential secondary health care drugs and services for special vulnerable groups such as HIV, TB, Psychosocial, pregnant and lactating women and waiver for emergency services including HIV and reproductive health.• Facilitate health coordination, information management, complimentary implementation with other clusters.

Outcomes

• Basic life saving health care packages available to the needy. • Early warning systems established.• Provincial and district teams respond to disease outbreaks and emergencies.• Coordination of emergency response activities improved.

Needs

The levels of malnutrition, though indicating some significant improvement in the past 2 years still remain high. Additional funding and technical support from UNICEF, WHO and other donors in the past 2 years, have contributed towards the reduction in levels of malnutrition and associated mortality. The most recent survey conducted in August 2008 indicated that global acute malnutrition rates of less than 12% a drop from 22.2% in 2006.The levels of micronutrient deficiency, and of particular concern, anemia, are still very high in pregnant women and children with levels reaching 65%in Dadaab camp, much higher than 45% cut off point considered to be of public health concern according to WHO. Dadaab has also been experiencing an increase in influx from Somali, which is approximated at 4000 persons per month by UNHCR; this poses an additional challenge towards service provision at the camps. Majority (above 80%) of new admissions in feeding programs are from new arrivals. Malnutrition still remains a concern and hence the need for continued support in 2009 in strengthening the existing essential nutrition services in Dadaab refugee camp.

Activities

• Strengthen maternal and child welfare clinics at the health posts.• Undertake two Vitamin A and deworming campaigns.• Conduct one nutrition survey.• Strengthen community based growth monitoring and promotion activities.• Enhance awareness on proper infant and young child feeding practices.• Increase uptake of micronutrient supplements through awareness campaigns for mothers attending antenatal clinics.• Procure supplies (therapeutic foods and other supplies) for use in management of malnutrition at the feeding programmes.

Outcomes

• Improved nutrition surveillance.• Prevent deterioration in malnutrition and adequate management of acute malnutrition maintained. • Maternal and child nutrition is improved.

Needs

The ongoing arrival of new refugees at the Dadaab camps has led to a situation where current primary health care service capacity is overstretched. UNHCR puts the figure for the new arrival per month as 5,000.The health care resources are stretched beyond capacity to reach out to the expanding number of refugees as well as make sure disease outbreaks are prevented and providing quality services. When outbreaks have occurred, this has diverted resources from primary care service delivery. Malnutrition and maternal death rates remain high, and, during the epidemics, mortality rates, especially among under-fives, have at times peaked above SPHERE standards. While HIV prevalence is generally low and PMTCT coverage has increased, there are low numbers of people both attending VCT and receiving ART. These figures suggest a need to scale up HIV/AIDS prevention activities in order to forestall an increase in prevalence.

Activities

• Provision of prompt and effective health care interventions according to accepted standards, such as those recommended by the SPHERE guidelines, the Kenya Ministry of Health, and the World Health Organization. • Operate three clinics for six days per week and one hospital on a 24-hour basis.• Implement comprehensive HIV/AIDS services including behaviour-change communication, universal precautions, HIV counselling and testing, prevention of mother-to-child transmission (PMTCT), and comprehensive care and support for persons living with HIV.• Operate a community-based therapeutic care (CTC) nutrition intervention that encompasses a stabilisation centre at the main hospital, out-patient therapeutic care (OTP) at all three satellite clinics, and supplementary feeding centres (SFCs).

Outcomes

• Reduce the following health related indicators to within WHO/SPHERE standards: crude mortality rates, under- five mortality rate, global acute malnutrition, measles coverage, number of maternal deaths, latrine ratio, quality of care assessment score.• Improve environmental health conditions by increasing latrine coverage to within WHO/SPHERE standards. • Maintain clinical services and community health programs with wide range of services to the refugee community.

Needs

The Dadaab Refugee Camps were established in 1991 and 1992 to cater to the influx of refugees from neighbouring Somalia. Currently, the three camps (Ifo, Dagahaley and Hagadera) host some 200,000 refugees, of whom some 35,000 are estimated to be under-fives. Continuing insecurity in Somalia is leading to a large influx, which is expected to continue in the foreseeable future. The increasing population in the camps is placing a strain on existing WES infrastructure which needs to be expanded to continue to provide adequate levels of service.

UNICEF has an MoU with UNHCR to support WASH infrastructure and activities in the camps. This proposal is specifically aimed to continue providing WASH support to the camps to maintain the current standard of water & sanitation provision and to help prevent or mitigate the seasonal outbreaks of WASH related disease, primarily cholera, in the camps.

Activities

• Construction and equiping of four new boreholes complete with pumps, generator sets and overhead steel tanks.• Installation/rehabilitation of water supply infrastructure.• Hygiene and Sanitation Education project using schools as entry points to reach the camp community.• A solid waste clean - up campaign.• Training of local artisans on concrete latrine slab construction and creation of demand for household latrines.

Needs

GTZ is the lead organization implementing health services, and manages the comprehensive health care system with responsibility for services including nutrition, mental health, and sanitation and hygiene promotion as well as RH/FP.Safe Motherhood services cover the major components of maternal health and newborn health including, antenatal care, care during labour, management of obstetric emergencies, newborn care and postpartum care. However, below average utilisation in postnatal care and FP services is realised through-out the camps. For example, as of Sept. 2008 data from quarterly service statistics indicate that overall antenatal care coverage of 95%. Of the 1,747 live births, 54% of deliveries occurred at home, 56% occurred at any of the hospitals in Dadaab camps, and only 30% of these women came for any postpartum visits. By cultural dictum, women are not allowed to leave the house for 40 days postpartum. Service statistics also indicate an overall contraceptive prevalence rate less than 1%, against a concomitant large number of pregnancies and births, (since September of this year, 4,866 babies have been born).

Many new camps residents lack a basic understanding of healthy practices related to RH/FP or preventative health care concepts (ante-natal/postnatal care, FP) and that traditional cultural practices and beliefs are barriers to accessing care and accepting RH/FP services. The high population growth experienced in the camps is attributable to high fertility rate and frequent refugee influx from across the border. People of age 15 to 30 years constitute 60 percent of the population. These demographic trends have resulted in a youthful population and early underage marriages practices, contributing to the high fertility and high maternal morbidity and mortality. Other factors affecting safe motherhood in general include; Limited financial and human resources, dilapidated infrastructure (space, privacy), community conservative nature and knowledge about many health subjects (negative attitudes and fears thrive in a climate of myths and misconceptions).

Activities

• Re-orient programs in line with the unmet needs in family planning and postnatal care.• Training and education of community and religious leader, education of adolescent and young men, community mobilisation and education, community action days.• Introduction of mama shelter for high-risk cases and those with complication.• Improve on transport, staffing for supervision and follow up at home level.

Outcomes

• Insight into community strengths and challenges associated with improving overall RH/FP achieved and Effective approaches to reach camp residents with information are undertaken.• Improved monitoring/supervision (increased uptake and utilisation of PNC/FP services in place, Overall reduction in maternal and morbidity and mortality.

Needs

Following two years of work in Child Protection in Dadaab Refugee camps establishing safe spaces for children, Save the Children has identified the need to increase the provision of Early Childhood Care and Development (ECD) for pre-primary aged children. A review conducted by UNHCR and CARE highlights the low numbers of pre-primary aged children reached with only 5077 children, constituting 23% of the age range, accessing education. Gross enrolment at Primary school is low, at 65%, with a high drop out rate after standard four, particularly for girls. There is an urgent need to increase access to quality ECD education in Dadaab to ensure that young children have access to early development, to increase the overall number of years children attend school and to improve retention rates and to increase girls’ performance and attendance in schools.

Activities

• Establish 18 new ECD centres for 100 children each;• Renovate 23 existing Pre-Primary classrooms for 50 children each;• Provide an initial year of an overall two year in-service teacher training to 80 ECD teachers;• Improve teaching and learning materials available in 42 ECD classrooms;• Provide educational management training for heads and school management committees at all supported schools;• Provide community out-reach programmes for mothers and the community.

Needs

The humanitarian situation in Kenya continues to escalate despite the ongoing repatriation of Sudanese refugees to Sudan. In Dadaab, UNHCR has been receiving between 5,000 and 9,000 refugees (170 – 300 per day) every month since the beginning of 2008. There is a need to increase refugee protection capacity in the key sectors of Water, Sanitation, Education, Health and Nutrition (complimentary food) and Non-Food Items (NFIs). Most of the infrastructure established in the camps nearly two decades ago is dilapidated and has come under increasing pressure resulting from the influxes. The only viable durable solution for Somali refugees is resettlement and perhaps local integration.

In Kakuma, while the ongoing repatriation of Sudanese refugees has resulted in a relative reduction of the population of concern, major gaps still exist with regard to appropriate standards in Sanitation, Education, Health and Nutrition (complimentary food), Non-Food Items (NFIs) and reduction of HIV and AIDS prevalence. Current malnutrition levels (9% in Kakuma and 13% in Dadaab) remain below WHO standards of 5%. In addition to cyclic outbreaks of diarrhea diseases and cholera over the past two years, anaemia and micronutrients deficiency among pregnant women and children remain acutely high at 65% in the two camps. This reflects the need for stakeholders to address health and nutrition gaps among the refugee community. It also necessitates the provision of more complementary foods, which have not been sufficiently provided due to inadequate funding.

Activities

1. Refugee Protection: registration of all refugees and asylum seekers, conducting refugee status determination in a timely manner and provision of adequate humanitarian assistance to all refugees with efficacy.2. Water, Sanitation & Hygiene: Construct 11,000 new latrines and implement best hygiene practice. In addition, extend water supply to new sites, improve efficiency and build refugee water management capacity ensuring refugees receive at least 20 l/p/d overall.3. Complementary Food: Distribute 550 metric tons of groundnuts and another 550 metric tons of green grams to refugees.4. Shelter and NFIs: Construct 7,000 new shelters for 7,000 families and provide NFIs to 20,000 families.5. Education: Construct at least 55 new classrooms, three new secondary schools and enhance enrolment to 100%.6. Health: Provide complimentary foods to children and pregnant and lactating mothers reducing GAM and to below SAM. 7. HIV and AIDS: Reduce HIV and AIDS prevalence and effects through curative measures, preventive measures and increase of awareness.8. Repatriation and Resettlement: Repatriation of 20,000 Sudanese refugees to their country of origin, resettlement of 5,000 refugees in a third country and local integration of 200 refugees deemed to be at risk.

Outcomes

• Increased water quantity and quality; reduction of water borne hygiene related diseases. • Reduced malnutrition (both Global and Severe Acute Malnutrition) Rates; and micronutrients deficiencies in children and mothers.• Improved and increased number of shelters.• Provision of specific non-food items is enhanced.• Reduction of sexual exploitation and abuse.• Improved household food security and improved nutrition.

Needs

Over the past one year and half, additional resources from partners and donors have been allocated to nutrition programs in the camps. This contributed to a significant decrease in levels of acute malnutrition and associated mortality since 2006. Surveys conducted in 2008 showed that global acute malnutrition rates dropped from 22.2% in 2006 to 13% in 2008, in Dadaab. However, levels of micronutrient deficiency such as anemia are still very high in pregnant women and children with levels reaching 65%. Despite some improvement, malnutrition levels remain bellow acceptable standards. Besides, increasing number of asylum seekers may reverse the positive trends. It was reported that the majority (above 80%) of new admissions in feeding programs was from new arrivals. Moreover, health facilities (which have always been below standards in terms of number) are facing increasing challenges to ensure access to adequate health and nutrition services to refugee populations. Malnutrition is still of concerns and continued support to strengthen the provision of essential nutrition services in 2009 is highly required.

Activities

• Support maternal and child welfare clinics in health posts.• Increase uptake of micronutrient supplements through awareness campaigns for mothers attending ANC.• Strengthen community control of Iodine Deficiency Disorders through use of iodine test kits, awareness of iodized salt storage, preparation and consumption.• Undertake de-worming and vitamin A campaigns. • Support and promote optimal infant and young child feeding practices at health facility and community levels.• Capacity development of partners and health workers for management of acute malnutrition and supporting/protecting IYCF.• Support implementing partners to hire adequate technical staff to manage acute malnutrition. • Provide adequate supplies (therapeutic foods and other supplies) through community therapeutic care to the malnourished children.

Outcomes

• Prevention, detection and adequate management of acute malnutrition is maintained. • Maternal and child nutrition is improved. • Morbidities and mortalities associated to malnutrition are prevented.

Needs

Political instability, wars, armed conflicts and insurgencies in Kenya’s neighboring countries had created a serious health crisis in the northern parts of the country. As at October 2008, there were over 210,000 refugees in Dadaab and 65,000 in Kakuma. With deterioration in the security and political insecurity in Somalia, more refugees are expected before the end of the year and 2009. The camps are located in the meningitis belt, are also likely to experience floods with increasing risks of disease outbreaks. The basic social service needs in the camps including health care are over-stretched. The camps are also located in a region where cross-border emergency health issues in the Horn of Africa and Kenya in particular have become a big challenge. All major disease outbreaks in the camps such as cholera, rift valley fever, and poliomyelitis concurrently occurred along the Kenya’s bordering countries near the camps. In addition, the cultural practices, beliefs and habits of the nomadic populations across the porous borders encourage the continuous presence of risk factors and hazards in the communities and also contribute to the rapid spread of diseases and other emergencies in the camps.

Activities

• Improve itegrated emergency EWARN for epidemic diseases, HIV, water quality surveillance in the refugee camps and five very close districts and the two provinces.• Train Partners in the camps, one provincial and five surrounding district teams in disease outbreak investigation and other emergencies response. • Provide basic field laboratory investigation package for the hospitals in the camps and Garissa provincial hospital for diseases of epidemic potential. • Provide basic and secondary health care services (drugs, Emergency health kits) for vulnerable groups including pregnant and lactating women and disease outbreaks response. • Facilitate health coordination, information management, and complimentary implementation of activities with other clusters. • Hire health workers for disease outbreak and other emergency response.

Outcomes

Needs

The approximately 50,577 refugees living in Kakuma Refugee Camp, not to mention the host community in Turkana (approximately 25,000), are in need of essential health services. The malaria incidence rate in the camp averaged 17.5/1,000 in 2008 with peaks of up to 60/1000 during the rainy seasons, and malaria has remained the number one cause of morbidity and mortality in the camp since its inception in 1992. Measles immunisation coverage from a Survey carried out was 91% for the Refugees and 78% for the host community. Past outbreaks of cholera, measles and meningitis have also threatened the camp population over the years. A high percentage of mothers risk delivering in the communities and must be supported with pre, delivery and post natal care. The influx of Somali refugees and the constant movement across the border by Sudanese refugees creates a high risk for the spread of disease. HIV/AIDS is also a problem within the camp and the host community with an estimated prevalence of 8% of the host community and 2% for the refugees. Finally, the harsh climate, high poverty levels and terrain of Turkana contributes to health problems by limiting accessibility, affordability and availability of health services for the host population.

Activities

• Operate three clinics for six days per week and one hospital 24 hours a day, seven days a week and building of the staff on case management.• Maintain an uninterrupted supply of essential drugs and medical supplies.• Improve Antenatal, High Risk, Family Planning, post abortal care, Care of rape victims and postnatal clinics.• Conduct screening and offer medical assistance to 100% of repatriating refugees.• Establish surveillance systems including laboratory infrastructure for the Camp.• Provide proper supplementation for malnourished children and pregnant women, and refer pregnant and postnatal women for MCH services and comprehensive HIV/AIDS care.• Capacity Support immunisation activities in the camp through logistical support and improvement of the cold chain.• Provide health promotion services in the camp and establish emergency stocks for outbreak prone diseases.

Outcomes

• Reduce the following health related indicators to within WHO/SPHERE standards: Crude Mortality Rates, Under five Mortality Rates, Measles coverage, number of maternal deaths, latrine ratio, quality of care assessment score and maintain quality clinical services to the refugee community. Assist arriving and repatriating refugees with proper medical screening.• Detect 100% of Outbreaks within 24 hours and provide timely treatment to the cases.

Project Duration Jan 2009 - Dec 2009Funds Requested $100,000

Needs

Capacity of MoH and other partner’s health staff in delivery of nutrition services is very poor. This is because nutrition is not usually part of the pre service training and also Kenya has recently developed new guidelines/strategies for integrated management of acute malnutrition and infant and young child feeding. Health workers have not been adequately trained on these new approaches and thus lack technical capacity in providing nutritional care.

An assessment by Concern worldwide in the slum areas of Nairobi and Kisumu in July 2008 showed that child feeding practices are very poor. Exclusive breastfeeding rates in both Nairobi and Kisumu were <1% and 88% of the mothers had introduced their children to other foods within one month of birth in Nairobi. Overall, 98% percent of the mothers reported to have used bottles to feed children.

Health facility records in 37 health facilities where Concern currently is working show rising trends in level of acute malnutrition. For example, in one district of Nairobi the numbers of severely malnourished children presenting at the health facilities increased three fold: from 177 in March 2008 to 477 in August 08.Activities

• Capacity building and technical assistance to health workers in delivery of the essential nutrition services (management of acute malnutrition, infant and young child feeding, nutrition education, micronutrients supplementation). • Training and skills development of key district health management team members (DHMT) in monitoring and provision of supportive supervision to health facilities • Technical and logistical support to the DHMT members in monitoring and reporting.

Needs

The arid and semiarid areas in Kenya had been experiencing drought and severe malnutrition. The population at risk for food insecurity is about 3.8 million and over 95,000 are children under the age of five and pregnant and lactating women receiving food supplementation. Surveys conducted between March and April 2008 in eight districts indicated nutritional levels of between 20 and 29.8 percent (global acute malnutrition (GAM) whilst severe acute malnutrition (SAM) was between 1.2% to 3.5%. There is outbreak of visceral leishmaniasis in same areas, a fatal disease condition which also resembles severe malnutrition. Projections indicate the problem is widespread than currently perceived. This has consequences for health; severe malnutrition and its complications, and potential outbreak of diseases among children. Even though emergency early warning systems for disease outbreaks exist same for nutrition is weak. In addition, the essential drugs and fortified supplements are lacking in health facilities and the knowledge and skills to manage severe malnourished cases is poor. It is very critical to establish and integrate malnutrition early warning systems into the emergency diseases surveillance system.

Activities

• Establish malnutrition early warning systems in the 12 most vulnerable districts and three provinces.• Make available essential emergency health and nutrition supplies including essential vitamins. Packages (and other materials) for severe malnutrition and complications in 14 health facilities.• Improve the management of severe (medical) malnutrition among district and provincial. Hospitals and partners in 12 districts and one provincial hospital in most affected areas. • Provide essential health care packages including reproductive health care.• Coordinate and monitor malnutrition response activities with partners in health facilities.

Needs

According to nutrition survey carried out in the larger Marsabit by UNICEF in April 2008, prevalence of Global Acute Malnutrition (GAM) was found to be 16% and severe acute malnutrition (SAM) was 2.2%. The nutrition situation is classified as critical with very critical GAM rates in Loiyangalani and North Horr. Severe acute malnutrition rates were also the highest in Loiyangalani. Child feeding practices are poor, 66% of caretakers in the survey reported introducing complementary feeds to children who were less than four months old. The whole of Marsabit District is food insecure suffering from chronic food shortage for most of the year. Relief food is used as a major source of food as crop products are not sufficient to supply the entire district, coupled with poverty, and the increase in food prices, households do not have sufficient funds to purchase the little food on the market. The problem in Marsabit is therefore inaccessibility to food and due to lack food commodities and decreased affordability due to increased food prices. This project will support the nutrition sector in preventing and addressing malnutrition in children under five years old and pregnant/lactating mothers in the most affected divisions of Marsabit, Chalbi and Maikona Districts.

Activities

• Provision of essential foods and micronutrients and ensuring that adequate supply systems are in place.• Support human resource capacity at area health facilities in the management of acute malnutrition including coordination, planning, mentoring, monitoring and reporting.• Protection and promotion of infant and young child feeding practices.• Nutrition education for promotion of good nutrition behaviours.• Diagnosis and management of acute malnutrition in the community using MOH community structures and mechanisms.

Outcomes

• Nutrition deterioration is prevented through early detection and management.• Risks of increased morbidities and mortalities associated with malnutrition are reduced. • Adequate capacity at health facilities to manage acute malnutrition.

Needs

The current state of household food and nutrition security situation in Turkana region is grave. The draft report for nutrition survey in April 2008 identified key factors that have led to deterioration of nutrition situation from GAM of 14.3% in 2007 to the upward of 22.5% in 2008, and SAM from 1.2% 2006 to 3.5% in 2008. The causes are the failure of short rains in 2007, the continued destructive effects of livestock disease, Peste des petites (PPR) and the post-election violence after 2007 elections. The stated issues had an overall effect of diminishing the impact of the concerted collaborative efforts of emergency interventions between the government departments and implementing agencies in the region.

Needs

Despite many years of food aid and other emergency assistance, the North Eastern Province of Kenya is still largely food insecure and levels of chronic and acute malnutrition remain unacceptably high. Climatic hazards such as droughts and floods, coupled with ongoing conflict and displacement, have had a devastating impact on the traditional livelihoods of pastoralist populations in the area. Save the Children conducted a nutrition survey in March 2008 and the results showed increased Global Acute Malnutrition (GAM) rates of 24.3% z-scores as compared to GAM rates of 15.3% z-scores from a previous survey conducted in October 2006. Although high malnutrition rates are linked to seasonality, it is feared that with the deteriorating water situation and food insecurity further exacerbated by the food price increases, immediate mitigation actions as well as planning for a probable drought intervention is urgently required as appealed to the OCHA-Humanitarian forum by Save the Children and other Partners working in Mandera.

Activities

• Strengthen the integrated SFP and OTP program at five existing health facilities. • Screening and referral of the acutely malnourished.• Community mobilisation and sensitisation.• Conduct Nutrition and health education sessions.• Training of community health workers on nutrition education with a focus on IYCF.• Conduct Nutrition survey in March 2009.• Conduct routine community screening using MUAC.

Needs

Episodes of droughts, disease outbreaks, rising food and fuel prices and the post election violence negatively impacted the nutritional status of women and young children in Kenya. As a result, the needs to prevent and address acute malnutrition have significantly increased across the country, including in areas that were traditionally not affected by malnutrition. However, MOH capacities in delivering critical nutrition services as well as monitoring nutrition situations have been generally weak. This is particularly true in newly affected areas where management of malnutrition has not been a priority and where support from partners to nutrition interventions has been limited. Therefore, UNICEF (in collaboration with WFP, WHO and implementing NGOs) is scaling up its support to MOH across the country to ensure that essential nutrition services are delivered at health facility and community levels. UNICEF will also mount it support towards nutrition surveillance and coordination systems in the targeted areas.

Activities

• Provide technical support for implementation of essential nutrition actions (e.g. growth monitoring, management of malnutrition, micronutrient supplementation, support infant and young child feeding practices, nutrition education).• Accelerate and scale up development of functional nutrition information systems (including routine and periodic data collection and analysis).• Conduct training of nursing and medical staff on key nutrition intervention including management of malnutrition. • Support outreach activities to increase coverage and follow-up of cases.• Support coordination systems at national and sub-national levels. • Supply MOH and Partners with essential food and non food commodities (therapeutic milks, ready to use therapeutic food, anthropometric equipments, feeding kits, micronutrients).• Dissemination of guidelines, IEC materials and policies.

Outcomes

• Acute Malnutrition is addressed and levels are stabilised or reduced. • Morbidities and mortalities associated with malnutrition are prevented.• Existing systems are strengthened to address malnutrition, including in periods of acute emergencies. • Nutrition information is available for improved programming and early detection of increasing vulnerabilities.• Coordination mechanisms are functioning at national and sub-national levels.• Adequate Nutrition supplies are delivered in a timely manner to districts and provinces.

Needs

During the post election violence that was experienced in Kenya in the early months of 2008, CARE Kenya’s projects in the Kibera project site were disrupted in several ways. Kibera residents experienced widespread violence, mainly characterised by the wanton looting and destruction of life and property. In this regard, learning institutions supported by CARE in the project site were looted and their premises destroyed. In particular, a total of 21 community Early Childhood Development (ECD) centres were adversely affected by the violence. Among other things, their property was looted, including food stores and provisions, kitchen ware, and learning materials. The parents and caregivers of the children served by the centres were also affected through loss of property and income, as their houses and business premises were burnt down, demolished or looted by the rioting mobs. This led to reduction in the capacity of caregivers and the ECD centres to effectively provide for the ECD needs of their children including education, food provisions and safe drinking water. A total of 3,069 children enrolled in the centres were affected in terms of attendance and retention in the ECD centres. The major need in the centres remains food provisions, safe drinking water, learning materials (including pencils, books and teaching aids) to ensure that children attend and remain in the centres.

Activities

• Training 60 staff from community ECD centres on best practices in child nutrition.• Provision of food supplements to 3,069 children affected by the post election violence in Kibera.• Provision of safe water tanks and water treatment compounds to 21 ECD centres in Kibera.• Provision of learning and teaching materials to 21 ECD centres to facilitate learning. • Renovation of kitchen and food stores in 15 ECD centres in Kibera.

Needs

Gender based violence (GBV) is one of the leading causes of HIV/AIDS, injury and death of women in Kenya. The Kenya Demographic and Health Survey (KDHS), 2003 reports that 53% of all women in their 30’s and 49.4% in their 40’s, have experienced violence since age 15, 15% of married women have experienced marital rape, one out of every four girls and young women report loosing their virginity through force - Action Aid International, 2007 & HIV/AIDS prevalence in Kenya is 7.8%. Majority of Kenyans are not aware of the Post Exposure Prophyluxies (PEP). 90% of GVRC survivors reported raped without use of a condom & were not aware of PEP. GBV leads to separation/divorce that increases number of children raised by single mothers. These children become vulnerable to trafficking, sexual exploitation, early marriages; women survivors of sexual violence fear divorce or blame of promiscuity if they tell their husbands.GVRC creates awareness on the inter-linkage of GBV & HIV/AIDS & the need to visit a health centre within 72 hours of sexual assault to receive PEP. 99% GVRC survivors introduced to PEP turn out safe. Those already infected are counselled on living with HIV/AIDS and adherence to ARVs.

Trainings include preservation of evidence, basic counselling skills and family therapy. Since inception in 2001 the centre has received over 12,000 survivors and currently receiving at least eight survivors a day and makes at least 15 rescues and referral of survivors per month. GVRC proposes extension of its services country wide to eight provinces; Riftvalley ( Naivasha District hospital we have actually launched a pilot project), Nyanza ( Kisumu district hospital), Central Province ( Nyeri District hospital), Eastern Province ( Embu district hospital), Nairobi ( GVRC our centre) Western Province ( Kakamega district hospital) Coast Province ( Makupa District hospital) and North Eastern Province ( Garissa District hospital)

Activities

• Provide free medical treatment and psychosocial support to survivors of GBV. The treatment includes PEP, Hepatitis B injections and preganacy prevention. Services will include counselling and referrals for client specific needs.• Training and awareness on the interlinkage of GBV and HIV/AIDS.• Training of Service providers on GVRC’s best practices on rape management.

Among one of the challenges faced by child protection actors during the post-election violence emanating from the December 2007 elections was the lack of a pre-existing national level coordination mechanism. From September 15 – 17, 2008, and with support from UNICEF, child protection agencies and actors met at the invitation of the Department of Children’s Services (DCS) to discuss creating such a coordination mechanism. The workshop is viewed as a necessary first step towards improving coordination and partnership among Child Protection in Emergency (CPiE) actors, and through regular meetings convened at the national, provincial, and district level, will provide agencies and actors with a forum for creating a country-wide, child protection specific, Emergency Preparedness and Response Plan (EPRP) for areas affected by natural disaster and conflict. The EPRP will delineate “who does what, where”, identify program gaps, and address capacity and training needs as well as ensure that programming initiatives are implemented commensurate with IASC guidelines. It will also ensure that CPiE activities are implemented with a view towards CPiE systems development and serve as a platform for joint advocacy initiatives based on a platform of Keeping Children Safe in Emergencies.

Activities

• Harmonising assessments and data collection efforts so that information collected informs programming, is gender sensitive, and can be disaggregated.• Creation of annual work plan, including training and capacity building plan addressing: (1) Provision of psycho-social support (PSS) in the form of child friendly spaces (CFS); (2) Child rights violation monitoring and response; (3) Prevention and response to gender based violence (GBV); (4) Prevention and response to sexual exploitation and abuse (SEA); and; (5) Prevention and response to unaccompanied and separated children (U/SC), specifically in relation to children placed in charitable children’s institutions (CCI’s) and child headed households (CHH).• Placement of child protection technical staff in the Department of Children’s Services in Molo, Nakuru, Kisumu, Eldoret, Mt. Elgon, and Garissa to support the development of child protection systems, i.e., ensuring functioning referral mechanism and capacity building of partners. • Creation of an advocacy campaign based on the platform of Keeping Children Safe During Emergencies.

Outcomes

• Children are protected during natural disaster and conflict.• Child protection in emergency systems establish and enhanced capacity of partners to prevent and respond to emergency situations.

Needs

During conflict situations women and girls experience gender based violence (GBV), including rape, attempted rape, gang rapes and other sexual assault, intimate partner violence, sexual harassment, trafficking, and sexual exploitation and abuse (SEA) of girls in promise of employment. 80 % of women affected by post election violence (Dioceses of Kisii, Homabay, Bungoma and Kitale) reported to have lost their livelihoods which increases their vulnerability to GBV. Gender-based violence is difficult to document especially in times of conflict because of breakdown of established protection and complaints mechanisms such as family, police, and clan elders. Reporting incidences is also difficult due to distance, fear of threats, ostracisation and stigma, and low awareness of human rights.

In light of this, there is a dire need for information to empower communities to protect themselves from further GBV, stigma, and associated repercussions such as HIV/AIDS. There is also a pressing need to inform, educate and empower people (women, men, girls and boys) about the medical and legal services available, and give women livelihood opportunities.

Activities

• Ecumenical conference to discuss and write a position statement on GBV and SEA in keeping with pope’s current crusade of speaking against GBV in the church.• Community Mobilisation to support the victims/survivors of GBV and sensitisation on human rights in support of community development.• Formation of Women Producer Marketing and Investment Groups, the majority of the members will be GBV survivors from the previous post election violence.• Train the women groups on entrepreneurship, value addition on local products, gender, and human rights.

Needs

The post election violence in Kenya left many families homeless and with no livelihood. In February 2008, the Kenya Red Cross estimated that there were 325,775 internally displaced persons. Cases of gender based violence, though no proper statistics are available, were numerous. As the government and civil society resettles people, there is dire need to assist them to reconstruct their lives. This proposal targets assisting women and girls affected by post poll violence to develop viable business plans to re-start their lives. The project will also train the community on gender based violence as it recognises the inevitable link between sexuality, well being and economic empowerment.

Activities

• Train and enrich women’s business acumen towards sustainable businesses. • Facilitate development of viable business plans for internally displaced women and girls.• Conduct widespread community education/awareness on gender based violence aimed at prevention and ensuring survivors know where to report and access services. • Capacity building of community based organisations to effectively prevent and respond to gender based violence.

Outcomes

• At least 1,500 women will have been trained and facilitated in developing sustainable business plans.• Boys and girls will benefit from the economic empowerment of women. • Community educated on gender based violence and reporting mechanisms.• Community based organisations capacity built to prevent and respond to gender based violence.

Needs

In the period that followed the post election violence, UNICEF supported the Ministry of Health in the drafting and the subsequent adoption of National Guidelines on Emergency Post Disaster Psychosocial Principles and Response, and through collaborative training initiatives with Save the Children UK, introduced the concept of community based psychosocial support to implementing and operational partners. With reference to child friendly spaces, in 2008 UNICEF supported the National Council of Church’s Kenya (NCCK) and the Child Welfare Society of Kenya (CWSK) on operationalsing the concept in areas affected by post-election violence, and in Dadaab, supported Save the Children (UK) in establishing three new spaces in each camp, as well as one new space in the host community. In child friendly spaces children can engage in structured, predictable activities that help resort normalcy to their lives, promote supportive care by competent adults, and help bring back trust and a sense of self esteem. They provide support to individuals, families, as well as communities.

In 2009, UNICEF will continue supporting CWSK, NCCK, Save the Children (UK), and other local and international partners including the Department of Children’s Services, the Ministry of Education, and IOM to carry out capacity building initiatives. The project will also ensure the CFS concept is integrated into child protection in emergency systems development in terms of linking with community child protection committees, ensuring monitoring and reporting, and coordinating referrals for service provision as required in Molo, Nakuru, Eldoret, Mt. Elgon, Kisumu and Garissa.

Activities

• Dissemination of government guidelines on provision of psychosocial support (PSS) during emergencies; direct trainings, and training of trainers, for implementing and operational partners, including teachers, on basic principles of providing PSS, mentoring children, and the development of CFS.• Creation of CFS in affected communities (including schools) which provide structured activities for children, but also engage youth and adolescents in life skills training (including HIV/AIDS).• Identification and training of partners on the provision of PSS and establishment of CFS, including the pre-positioning of supplies such as tents, mats, recreational and creative activity items.• In Dadaab refugee camp, continued support for CFS and establishment of participatory child programming (children’s clubs).

Outcomes

• Protective environments for children established and capacity of implementing and operational partners enhanced in order to respond to emergency scenarios.

The Kenya Police Crime Report and Data for 2007 indicates that there were 876 cases of rape reported, 1,984 cases of defilement, 181 cases of incest, 198 cases of sodomy, 191 cases of indecent assault and 173 cases of abduction reported in Kenya 2007. In Kitale a total of 59 cases of rape and defilement were reported to the police and in Kapenguria 64 cases in the year 2007. This is just a tip of the iceberg since many cases go unreported; a survey done by UNAIDS* in Kenya revealed that 46% of women and girls had experienced one or more episodes of sexual abuse in childhood, and 25% of 12 to 24 year olds had their first sexual experience by force. In light of this, it’s most appropriate to assume that these figures can be multiplied several times to establish the number of cases and/or extent of GBV in the region. In Kitale, between January to September 2008, 180 people were reported to have received PEP for rape or defilement in the hospital (63 cases of rape, seven cases of sodomy and 110 defilement cases). Survivors of rape and defilement are referred to the District Hospital in Kitale which has no referral systems for rape survivors, the hospital staff are ill equipped to manage clinical and psychological cases related to GBV, the police and local administration lack the necessary skills to respond to GBV and there is a need to build the capacity of our partners to develop a ‘strong’ multi sectoral response to GBV in the area.

Activities

• Capacity Building on GBV management (clinical and psychosocial for health workers, counsellors, police, people with disabilities, partners and disabled persons organisations.• Participatory designing and production of appropriate S/GBV IEC tools for women, girls, men, S/GBV survivors and community in general. • Establish ‘’Drop in centres’’ at the district Hospital; Construction and furnishing.

Needs

The recent situation in Kenya demonstrated that there is tremendous need to scale up emergency preparedness to meet the varying needs of boys, girls, men and women. Gender-specific needs and concerns went largely unaddressed, during the post-election violence response in Kenya. For instance, women and girls were exposed to risks due to general failure to promote inclusion of women in camp decision-making and coordination processes. Similarly, camp-based services to meet the specific needs of girls, women, boys and men were almost non-existent in the majority of camps. In many situations women and girls were unable to access basic necessities such as underwear, sanitary napkins and contraception, men’s idleness and lack of opportunity to provide economic support to their families often resulted in domestic violence, and the specific gender-related needs and capacities that exist within the family unit went largely unrecognised. First responders such as the Kenyan Government, Kenya Red Cross Society, and other key organisations in protection, water and sanitation, food security and nutrition, shelter and non-food items, health and community services, and education need to increase their capacity to incorporate gender analysis and other emergency preparedness and contingency planning strategies that are sensitive to the needs, contributions and capacities of boys, girls, women and men to ensure safe and equal access to humanitarian assistance for all.

Activities

• Training of and awareness creation among first responders, and target beneficiaries on the gender differences, inequalities and capacities and how to respond to them.• Provision of guidance and mentorship to first responders on gender analysis, planning and actions to ensure that the needs, contributions and capacities of boys, girls, men, and women are considered in all aspects of humanitarian response.

Outcomes

• First responders from a variety of sectors are knowledgeable on gender analysis, planning and actions to implement a humanitarian response that is sensitive to the needs, contributions and capacities of boys, girls, men, and women, in all aspects of humanitarian response.• Emergency preparedness and contingency plans in place to respond to gender specific needs.• Humanitarian response in place when a crisis arises that is gender responsive.

Needs

In addition to the 2008 post-election violence, conflict has been ongoing in the Mt. Elgon region of Kenya since December 2006. The IRC recently conducted a broad assessment of humanitarian needs in the area and received a significant amount of unsolicited information about gender-based violence, rape in particular. Several girls suggested that a majority of girls in their community had experienced rape or some kind of sexual assault, and that there was a high rate of teenage pregnancy as a result of these attacks. This suggests that a high number of incidents have taken place and that more may be reported if reporting options were increased. Further, the IDP chairman in one region said that while more than 20 cases of rape had been reported since 2007, they had been referred to health centres only when STI infection became severe. While the security situation has improved, the effects of these attacks on women and children are long-term and require interventions to mitigate them.

Activities

Needs

GBV is a serious human rights issue in Kenya, a situation evidenced by the ordeals that women underwent in the recent violence early in the year. The explosive situation placed women and girls at a very precarious situation and became prone to GBV, s situation that has continued even after quelling the violence. Nationally and locally, there is no proper response framework. It is in no doubt that this cripples their capacity to engage in developmental and governance/leadership activities in the country. Adequate information on GBV in the community is lacking, a situation that has led to rampant violation of human rights. This project aims at community sensitisation and education on human rights with a specific regard to GBV to enable women and girls education on these rights and be able to stand up and safeguard against violation.

Activities

• Capacities building of the CBO s at the district level to enable them identify and address GBV issues and identification of reporting focal points for information tracking and the use of the Standard Operating Procedures.• Provide in-depth training of the project staff, volunteers and CBO service providers on the Standard Operating Procedures.• Data collection, analysis and documentation of GBV at the community level.• Development and dissemination of IEC materials to enhance knowledge among the communities and also strengthen the reporting systems at the community and household level. • Dissemination of documented reports to cluster members and policy makers to enhance gender-sensitive policies and laws as far as GBV is concerned.

Outcomes

After 45 years of relative political stability, Kenya reversed these gains in a matter of days through controversial and closely contested general elections that took place on 27th of December 2007. The violence later took an ethnic angle culminating in bizarre killings of over 1000 people with more than 350,000 displaced. Camps for internally displaced persons were set up and the violence triggered a humanitarian crisis never witnessed before. Cases of Sexual abuse were on the increase. In Kenya, we need to address this problem of gender violence especially after the Post election events that saw women’s rights violated with impunity. The preliminary findings of an Inter -Agency Rapid GBV assessment led by UNFPA and including GBV experts (initiated in mid-January 2008 in selected sites in North Rift Valley, South Rift Valley, the Coastal Region, Nairobi and Central Province) confirmed initial reports from Nairobi-based hospitals that sexual violence was an integral component of the post -election violence that began December 30, 2007. Livelihoods support, security, protection and shelter are immediate concerns for this group. In the month of May, the government started a return/resettlement process that should have been preceded by systematically arranged situation that leads to dialogue, reconciliation, relocation/resettlement and ultimate recovery. This process however has not been systematic and there is dire need for facilitating inter-community dialogue, restorative justice through Truth, Justice and Reconciliation Process, reconciliation, conflict mitigation and sustainable peace.

Activities

Participation in the TJR Process. Formation/activation of inter-faith dialogue Committees. Support four youth groups and four women groups to acquire micro enterprise skills (livelihood regeneration).

Needs

All children have a right to equal access to quality, basic education. However, this access, amongst girls in Teso District has been hindered by a high drop out rate due to teenage pregnancies and early marriage. Some of the underlying contributors to the teenage pregnancies and early marriages include high poverty levels and deep-rooted cultural issues. In addition, conflict resulting from Sabaot Land defence and the recent post election violence, have increased such incidences (WVK Monitoring Report, August 2008). According to the Teso District Development Plan 2002 to 2008, 14.6% girls drop out of secondary schools every year as compared to 2.6 % boys. This is alarming data especially considering that the enrolment of girls in secondary school is already approximately 5% below that of boys and the average school attendance for girls in secondary schools is one year compared to four years for boys. Again when compared to the national school drop out rate for girls, that is at 4.1% in the National Development Plan 2002 to 2008, the school drop out rates in Teso are very worrying. In view of this, the need to address girl protection issues in the district cannot be overemphasised.

Activities

• Awareness creation on child rights, which will include the right to education and forms of child abuse for both boys and girls and MoE gender policy on re admission of teenage mothers back to school. This will include development and distribution of IEC materials. • 300 teenage mothers who have dropped out of school provided with psychosocial support.• Development of training guides for targeted groups. • Two trainings conducted for Area Advisory Councils, teachers and Peer counsellors in schools in Teso district.• Establish peer counselling clubs in 111 primary schools in Teso district.• Vocational training provided for 300 out of school teenage mothers.• Provision of sanitary kits and school uniforms to identified needy girls in 111 primary schools. • Advocate to the MoE for institutionalisation of peer counselling in schools.• Monitoring and evaluation.

Assessments have identified 1,502 children in the South Rift Valley, 1,000 in the North Rift Valley, and 600 in Nyanza province living in child headed households (CHHs) as a result of the post election violence. Thousands of children are also living in Charitable Children’s Institutions (CCIs) ie orphanages, as a result of the post election violence. Most of the children living in CCIs or CHHs have parents or guardians who have voluntarily placed them in these living arrangements. Awareness-raising of families regarding the dangers of institutional care and the risks faced by children living without supervision is desperately required, as is the establishment of alternative care arrangements. In addition, a minority of children were accidentally separated from parents or guardians during the post election violence and a comprehensive tracing program must be implemented to locate these guardians and reunify them with their missing children.

Activities

• Train teams of CWSK and DCS staff to conduct identification, registration, tracing, mediation and reunification (IRTMR) activities with children separated as a result of conflict and natural disaster in CCIs or CHHs and support them in carrying out these activities;• Establish a central office from which all IRTMR activities are coordinated, and sustainable case management systems are developed to create records of separated children, to facilitate the IRTMR processes, to monitor children in institutional care, and to develop alternative care arrangements;• Train NCCK community workers and other child protection partners to act as mentors to the most vulnerable children living in CHHs and support them in responding to the children’s protection concerns, and in implementing child friendly spaces to address the psycho-social needs of these children;• Implement a media campaign to alert families to the risks associated with institutional care and the dangers faced by children living without adult supervision.

Outcomes

• Children separated as a result of the post election violence in CCIs or CCHs are registered to mitigate the risk of trafficking and abuse, and the majority are reunified with their families;• The foundation of a national child protection system is established that can function beyond the emergency context; and case management systems are developed that facilitate the monitoring of children in institutional care as well as the creation of alternative care arrangements.

Needs

Following Operation Rudi Nyumbani, the humanitarian situation has become more complex with thousands of people now residing in remote ‘transit’ camps, with limited access to basic services. In these areas severe protection risks affecting children and their families still prevails. Children and their families continue to be affected by the after effects of the violence and subsequent displacement as there still have been no integration efforts with the non displaced communities. Psychosocial care and support remains a high priority for those affected. Save the Children has identified this as a critical gap and has therefore refocused it’s operations to include support to these populations. Through working with the established child protection structures, the project will focus on building peace and reconciliation through various activities with children, youth and parents. This will enhance integration efforts in the communities to further ensure that children and families return to normalcy and begin to build their lives in their homes. The project will be based in major areas of return, specifically Burnt Forest, Nakuru slum villages and transit camps spread around Molo.

Activities

• Continue to provide support to already established child protection committees (CPCs).• Expand CPCs to non-displaced communities and provide training and support.• Capacity building of existing service structures (schools, local administration and police) in child protection.• Formation of child/youth rights clubs in displaced and non-displaced communities to encourage protection, peace and reconciliation activities.• Prevention and response to issues of child abuse including SGBV and promote child rights• Age-appropriate play activities in areas of return to promote sense of security, normalcy and enhance meaningful participation across all age groups.• Material assistance to very vulnerable families (foster children, child headed households etc) to assist day-to-day existence and especially school attendance.

Outcomes

• Up to 250 children benefit from case management of SGBV and child abuse issues• 15 CPCs across all project sites continue to be supported in addressing protection concerns.• 15 children rights clubs are formed, trained and supported to plan activities.• 1,000 vulnerable families are supported with materials and as a result up to 3,000 children are able to go to school across all project sites.• 4,000 children and youth attend recreational activities to enhance psychosocial support and peace building.• Various government structures are empowered in responding to child abuse issues

Needs

FGM practice is strongly rooted and valued by the Pokots of East Pokot District. Although a high proportion of school going girls elude the practice, 100% of none-school going girls undergo the practice before 14 years of age. Unfortunately primary school enrolment is only at 28.9% and adult illiteracy is about 97% .This raises fundamental question on number of girl children subjected to the practice. The Community Disaster Preparedness Plan elaborates in detail how FGM practice has promoted other harmful traditional practices (HTP) including cattle rustling and all kinds of child abuses inhibited by the community. Although Kenya has adopted various international conventions and declarations in an attempt to fight the FGM, this has not been handled effectively in East Pokot.

Activities

• Conduct Community training/awareness creation meetings (barazas) and advocacy campaigns on HTP in the schools, churches, and communities and train government line ministry officials on handling of GBV/FGM Cases.• Identify and establish strategic alliances and partners to advocate for eradication of HTP• Support the rehabilitation and reintegration back to school of girls rescued from HTP;• Identify and educate FGM practitioners on effects of the act and support them for IGAs• Identify role models in the community to act as mentors and support mechanism for the girls who say no to FGM. • Provide training for Child Rights Clubs in ten schools on the effects of FGM, how to report cases of abuse.

Outcomes

• Nginyang/Mondi communities initiate and manage sustainable anti-FGM initiatives.• Requisite support provided for FGM practitioners and girls rescued from FGM in Nginyang/Mondi Divisions.• Enhanced Capacities for partners and communities with capacity to advocate against FGM and Child abuse in Nginyang/Mondi Divisions.

Needs

The recent post-election violence situation in Kenya demonstrated that there is tremendous need to scale up emergency preparedness to address the links between GBV and HIV/AIDS. Children and women constitute the majority of victims in situations of conflict and civil unrest. During situations of conflict and displacement girls and women suffer from rape, sexual slavery, sexual exploitation and forced marriage. In addition, in situations of natural disaster, research is increasingly indicating that “gender-based vulnerabilities” can lead to increased HIV transmission due to increased economic challenges which often lead to increased rates of sexual exploitation and transactional sex. First responders such as the Kenyan Government, Kenya Red Cross Society, and other key organisations in protection, water and sanitation, food security and nutrition, shelter and non-food items, health and community services, and education need to increase their capacity to incorporate a gender analysis and other emergency preparedness and contingency planning strategies that are sensitive to the links between and vulnerabilities related to GBV and HIV in emergencies.

Activities

• Training of and awareness creation among first responders, and target beneficiaries on the minimum set of standards for addressing GBV and HIV in emergencies.• Provision of guidance and mentorship to first responders on gender analysis, planning and actions to ensure that the links between and vulnerabilities related to GBV and HIV in emergencies are addressed through both response and prevention services.

Outcomes

• First responders from a variety of sectors are knowledgeable on the minimum set of standards for addressing GBV and HIV in emergencies.• Emergency preparedness and contingency plans in place to ensure that the links between and vulnerabilities related to GBV and HIV in emergencies are addressed through both response and preventative services.• Humanitarian response in place when a crisis arises that adequately responds to GBV and HIV.

Needs

Displacement and food insecurity have turned many people, and children and young women in particular, vulnerable to human trafficking and smuggling as they seek to better their livelihoods in urban centres and other countries. IOM rapid assessments’ in Nairobi and Eldorat have revealed traffickers are already approaching parents with offers of “good jobs” for their children. In their desperation, victims accept offers of traffickers as a means of escaping their desperate situation. In such circumstances, victims or their relatives often overlook doubtful proposals and loopholes in the contracts or verbal offers and only realise their situation once they arrive in the countries of desperation. In the Kenya IDP concentrations the most probable forms of recruitment include false job offers, false education opportunities, and coerced recruitment by relatives as a means of providing for the family or fostering. Building on IOM’s experience and on going efforts to combat human trafficking in Kenya this proposed project will enhance the response to human trafficking in Kenya by adding new dimensions in the form of prevention through creation of alternatives for those most vulnerable to trafficking as well as improving capacity to identify and assist victims of trafficking and expending awareness raising efforts.

Activities

Primary prevention, an action oriented approach to deter individuals from getting in contact with traffickers, including community as well as mass media awareness raising events;

Supporting the government in its efforts to eliminate the unfavourable conditions that push individuals to put themselves in the hands of traffickers, by creating local alternatives to trafficking through provision of training, micro grants, support for the creation of local cooperatives targeting those most vulnerable to trafficking;

Establishment of effective referral and response mechanisms to identify, rescue and refer victims of trafficking for assistance;

Provision of direct assistance to victims of trafficking through the provision of safe shelter, basic needs such as food and medical care, psychosocial counselling, education and skills training, family reunification when appropriate and reintegration assistance.

Outcomes

• Communities and individuals, in particular potential migrants better aware of the dangerous of trafficking and the means of legal migration;• Vulnerable population in targeted communities provided with viable options to irregular migration and trafficking such as vocational training, micro grants to start small businesses etc;• Local and national referral mechanisms in place;• Victims of trafficking are identified rescued and referred for assistance; • Victims of trafficking are assisted and reintegrated back to society.

Needs

Nairobi is home to some 130,000 urban refugees from countries such as Somalia, Eritrea, and Ethiopia. Refugee populations are always vulnerable, but this is particularly true for women and children, who often arrive in Nairobi’s slums unaccompanied, having lost male partners or family members to conflict in their home countries. Their lack of traditional family structures makes them vulnerable to exploitation and abuse by both men in their community and law enforcement agents. Many urban refugee women live in poverty, lacking financial independence or a stable source of income. Furthermore, access to formal education is difficult and illiteracy is widespread, making refugee women less likely to be aware of their rights and of where they can turn for assistance if their rights are violated.

Activities

Work with community groups to form three youth groups and build organisational capacity of seven community women groups to transition into CBOs.

Provide in-kind grants to community members to start or scale up income-generating activities. Provide financial support to three key NGO to advocate for refugee act, train community groups as well as

police and other relevant government bodies on human rights issues and gender based violence. Provide a grant to a new local NGO that will train community women on business and leadership skills and will a

conduct market survey.

Outcomes

• Refugee community groups supported and linkages with supportive service providers established and maintained.• Provides women refugees with transferable business leadership and relevant vocational skills.• Provide business grants to support income-generating activities.• Support to local NGOs ensures long-term connection with the refugee population and sustainable solutions, facilitates collaboration with local administrative bodies, and provides women and girls with improved access to justice through legal empowerment and legal aid.

There is a need to strengthen the understanding of the immediate and long-term protection concerns of IDPs, to ensure appropriate protection responses to all and provide special assistance to those with specific needs. Community based initiatives, including advocacy, mediation and peace building will be strengthened through close collaboration with affected communities, GoK and humanitarian actors to ensure durable solutions to displacement are found. Strengthening information and legal aid work is also a priority to ensure IDPs have access to: (1) ID and legal documents as well as properties; (2) information regarding compensation schemes and legal processes. In view of the decreasing number of post-election violence affected persons of concern during the year, the UNHCR IDP operation will scale down. The current UNHCR led Protection Cluster will transition into a national protection forum, with a broadened scope of work that includes all persons affected by humanitarian crisis and internal displacement. UNHCR will continue to co-chair and support the national protection forum throughout the transition period.

Internally displaced women and girls in the Rift Valley Province of Kenya are at risk of rape, harassment and other forms of violence every time they leave the IDP camps to collect wood. This risk, however, is one they often have no choice but to take, since there are few other sources of cooking fuel or income available to them. The situation grows direr every day. A preliminary visit was made to the field in September 2008 to the IDPs in transit and settlement sites in Nakuru, Molo, Kuresoi, Burnt Forest, Trans Nzoia West and Turbo to ascertain and validate the issues. Overall, the situation remains critical to women and girls in Kuresoi Keringet, Burnt Forest and Gituamba. Based on the survey a firewood strategy and alternative fuel technology have been designed by UNIDO for joint implementation with UNFPA.

Activities

• Advocate for patrolling of firewood collection routes by security forces, police or human rights monitors. • Direct provision of fuel to IDPs to eliminate the need for women and girls to leave the camps in search of firewood.• Train IDPs on fuel-efficient rations and cooking techniques, such as pre-soaking beans and sheltering cooking fires.• Train IDPs on models of fuel-efficient stoves which are effective for use in camp settings.• Support the IDPs to make energy saving stoves with the use of hand-made mud and brick designs. • Provision of Light Emitting Diodes (LED) lamps for lighting in transit camps.

Outcomes

• Reduction in the number of GBV cases reported that take place during firewood collection and a reduction risks for women and girls.• Safer IDP and cooking spaces identified for women and girls.• Safe fuel/firewood collection strategies in place.

Kenya has faced one of the worst crises ever following the violence that broke out after the disputed 2007 General Election results were announced. Nairobi Women’s Hospital and the Coast General Hospital reported an upsurge in the numbers of women and children seeking treatment for rape. During the period between 27th Dec 2007 to 29th Feb 2008, the Nairobi Women’s Hospital’s Gender Recovery Centre (GVRC) alone treated a total of 443 survivors of Sexual and Gender Based Violence of which 80% were rape/defilement cases, 9% were physical assault cases, 7% were domestic violence cases and 4% were indecent assault. The hospital noted that altogether they attended to 653 cases of GBV related to the crisis. The government’s laxity in domesticating International and regional human rights instruments that it is signatory to such as CEDAW and particularly the Protocol on the Prevention and Suppression of Sexual violence against women an children contained in the Great Lakes Region Pact on peace security and development has contributed to the lack of infrastructure needed to provide social and legal assistance, medical treatment, counselling, training, rehabilitation and reintegration of all the survivors and victims of sexual violence particularly during conflict periods.

• Develop a popular version of the Great Lakes Pact on Peace Security and Development and a tool kit for lobbying and advocacy.• Lobbying and Advocacy for adoption, integration and domestication of this policy based on the Great Lakes Pact on Peace Security and Development.• Media campaign and community education forums to create massive awareness.

Outcomes

• Domestication of the Great Lakes Pact on Peace Security and Development vis-à-vis displacement, resettlement, reintegration and property of Kenyans during conflict and particularly the Protocol on Prevention and Suppression of Sexual Violence against women and children (2006).• Access to justice for survivors of sexual and gender based violence.

Needs

Older people are rarely included in emergency planning by humanitarian agencies and consistently missed-out from disaster prevention, preparedness and mitigation strategies and activities. Compromised physical mobility exposes them to increased risk during emergencies. Humanitarian responses tend to respond to the general population without due attention to the specific needs and potential contributions of older people.

Older people not only need protection themselves during a disaster but are also faced with the double dilemma of protecting their off springs and grandchildren in emergencies and early recovery. The lack of disaggregated data by both humanitarian actors and others have always been cited as the reason for the omission of older people from key emergency strategies and responses thus leaving older people and those under their care marginalised from emergency response programmes.

During the recent displacement following the post election violence, admittedly the issues of older people were not given the due consideration. Camps visited did not provide adequate protection for older people as they were made to queue and struggle with the strong and able-bodied individuals. Additionally food rations and health services as is often the case with most humanitarian response programmes were not responding to the physical and chronic conditions of older people.

HelpAge International plans to influence the inclusion and increased visibility of older people among the humanitarian agencies by undertaking a series of consultations and sensitisation activities about the needs and contributions of older people. HAI plans to conduct technical skills training on targeting and designing appropriate responses to older people in the humanitarian response programmes.

Activities

• Training Humanitarian agencies GOK, local authorities, FBOs etc on effective data collection and disaggregation at different levels (national and local level).• Advocacy and sensitisation of Humanitarian agencies on older people in emergencies through trainings/workshops at national and local level.• Networking and collaboration within the various clusters to influence responses.

Outcomes

• Data collected will be disaggregated by gender and age.• Humanitarian agencies are aware of the older people’s needs in emergencies.• Older persons are included and involved in all interventions during emergencies.

Needs

Violence has been on-going in the Mt. Elgon district since December 2006. Reports published by humanitarian and human rights have groups have documented instances of child abuse, violence, and displacement, citing a critical lack of humanitarian response. Children in the area have witnessed violence and torture. Stresses such as family breakdown, separation from parents through population movements, and deaths of parents have had traumatising effects on the children. A significant number of unaccounted for children were reportedly spontaneously fostered in the communities. It is also believed that many families willingly or voluntarily left their children behind in the communities around for fear of their safety. This has resulted in a number of children heading households. Families are not yet in position to provide for themselves, and instead depend on humanitarian handouts that are hardly enough. Therefore many households have become involved in cheap labour. It is a common practice for older children, particularly girls, to help their parents earn extra income by providing cheap labour. They risk dropping out of school in the process.

Activities

• Sensitisation of communities on protection of children issues. • Training to local government, teachers and NGOs/CBOs on protection matters.• Identify the stakeholders in schools/agencies/government.• Training to local government, health workers, teachers and NGOs/CBOs on protection matters.• Develop a training package on child protection issues for reference material.• Facilitate development & dissemination of IEC materials for child protection.• Facilitate monitoring of child headed households and their protection.

Needs

During 2007 and 2008, UNICEF pilot tested a child right’s violation monitoring and reporting format in areas affected by conflict – primarily in the protracted conflict in Mt. Elgon and areas affected by post-election violence. While there were reports of sexual abuse and rape, there were also reports of increased recruitment of children by armed groups and a reinforcement of certain traditional practices, such as female genital cutting. As part of developing a system for child protection in emergencies in areas affected by conflict and natural disaster (see project submission National Level Child Protection in Emergencies Working Group), UNICEF will continue to train partners in monitoring and reporting, but will also work with partners to develop standard operating procedures for responding to children affected by violence which will include medical, psychosocial support, and legal representation for children in need. In relation to legal advocacy, UNICEF will continue to support the Children’s Legal Action Network in Dadaab refugee camps in order to ensure representation for children appearing before the mobile and Khadi (Islamic) courts.

Activities

• Assess, compare, and contrast how emergencies impact children in different areas of Kenya in order to inform systems development.• Based on assessments and evidenced based monitoring and reporting, create a multi -media advocacy campaign including the using radio (vernacular stations) and print media.• Continue to train partners on the reporting format and on data collection methodologies and analysis.• Develop standard operating procedures for responding to violence against children according to the availability of regional services and identify possible standby partners who will be able to access areas not traditionally within their usual geographic area of operation.• Build the capacity of duty bearers and local NGOs, as well as identify and train partners, on how to respond. (This will tie into initiatives with the GBV sub-cluster insofar as carrying out integrated trainings for health, psychosocial, legal, and the safety security sectors).• Monitoring data used to support advocacy initiatives carried out by UNICEF, the Department of Children’s Services, and other child protection partners.• In Dadaab refugee camp, continue to support legal representation for children before the mobile and Khadi courts, support the paralegal training initiative, and carry out child rights awareness raising activities.

The post election violence in Kenya early in the year resulted in the displacement of an estimated 290, 0 00 Internally Displaced Persons. The government estimates that 227,469 IDPs have returned to pre-displacement areas. However, until today, many of the IDPs are unable or unwilling to return while others are still camped at transitional sites where they are facing many challenges. With Kenya having no national law governing IDP protection, issues of restorative justice are still plaguing the IDPs.

Needs

Gender Based Violence is a serious life threatening, human rights, protection and gender issue. Despite efforts by the Kenya Red Cross Society (KRCS) and other humanitarian actors to introduce some basic protective mechanisms, cases of sexual assault in the IDP camps appear to be on the rise. Exact numbers are not readily available not only because the encampments do not have standardised reporting mechanisms, but also because of challenges associated with acknowledging victimisation, including availability of services, the level of awareness about the value of medical assistance, the degree of trust in police and other security-related issues, as well as the cultural acceptability of disclosing rape. Sexual exploitation was also indicated to be a major concern amongst the IDPs. Both women and humanitarian actors across multiple sites reported cases in which women and girls are coerced into exchanging sex for basic resources, such as food, sanitary supplies, transport, etc.

Activities

• Hold sensitisation meetings with 60 leaders of partner organisations, 50 police officers and 300 teachers on GBV.• Train 25 health facility staff on clinical management, 100 professional counsellors on GBV and trauma counselling and 120 volunteers drawn from SDA and AIC Churches and REPACTED.• Provide counselling services to 400 victims of gender based violence by professional counsellors.

Needs

The protection of women and girls in Kenya continues to warrant serious attention, as do other GBV-related legal, health and psychosocial needs, given that many of these services remain inaccessible or insufficient. Priority areas of intervention will include key regional sites where actors from different sectors can be engaged in interagency and multi-sectoral GBV and SEA prevention and response trainings, on-going supervision. Given the reality that the majority of survivors coming forward are under 18, emphasis will be placed on ensuring comprehensive and ethical service provision to both girls and boys. The project will also prioritise piloting a system to collect, safely store, analyse and share data related to GBV, which will improve the humanitarian community’s ability to gain a reliable picture of the effect programming is having on the protection of women, girls, men and boys.

Activities

• Support on-going training efforts throughout key areas of the country by engaging multiple stakeholders in multi-sectoral caring for survivors trainings and on-going supervision.• Operationalisation of regional/provincial GBV standard operating procedures to strengthen referral mechanisms and ensure a high standard of ethical care and support.• Pilot a GBV Information Management System (GBVIMS).• Training on SEA to facilitate identification of focal points and development of reporting mechanisms to respond to allegations of SEA.

Molo district is currently receiving many IDPs returning to their ancestral homes and areas of origin/displacement. The displaced persons continue to arrive in Molo in deplorable states mainly with no assets and basic domestic items to start up their lives in their homes.

Various review assessments conducted by interagency teams led by OCHA/HCR and also internally by DRC on the current Molo situation confirm that a high number of returnees are still held up in transit sites due to lack of basic services that were destroyed during the post election violence. To date, out of a population of over 20,000 families in the area, DRC has been able to reach 8,275 households with NFIs since April 2008. Currently, the returning IDPs and host population are in urgent need of NFIs, such as mattresses, Mats, Blankets, cooking utensils and Jerry cans. For women and girls in their reproductive age, sanitary towels are a priority.

Needs

Violence has been on-going in the Mt. Elgon district since December 2006. Reports published by humanitarian and human rights groups have documented instances of human right abuse, violence, and displacement, citing a critical lack of humanitarian response. Both the internally displaced persons and other affected populations in Mt. Elgon region have limited access to essential services and have limited possibilities for survival, especially in rural areas. As a result many have drifted into towns and market centres where they lead a marginal existence with heightened risk of exposure to violent crimes. Amongst the IDPs, women and children are more vulnerable to such risks since they have to find food, water and other essential services in overwhelmingly insecure and hostile environments. Families are not yet in position to provide for themselves and instead depend on humanitarian handouts that are hardly enough. Therefore many households have become involved in cheap labour.

Activities

• Distribution of essential NFIs. • Distribution of farm implements, mainly Jembes, to vulnerable farmers.• Construction of latrines in institutions.• Hygiene & health promotion activities.• Water system construction & rehabilitation.• Water storage tank installation in institutions.• Provision of water treatment kits.

Kipkelion District lies 180km north west of Nairobi, and has a population of approximately 270,000. The district covers over 1,000 km². The population is overwhelmingly rural with fewer than 5% living in the major towns of Kipkelion and Londiani. While the district is majority Kalenjin (the Kipsigis sub-tribe), there are significant settlements of Kikuyu, Kisii, Luo and other tribes. The post-election violence saw over 23,000 people displaced, with approximately 4,000 people losing their homes to arsonists and many billions of shillings worth of food and property looted. The district was among the first to witness the spontaneous return of IDPs in February owing to the improved security situation. In the intervening period, the Provincial Administration has provided a number of additional security posts in the area. To date GOAL has provided 1800 low cost housing units to the affected population with around 2000 families still requiring the same support.

Activities

• Comprehensive survey of target population along with mobilisation of community committees.• To carry out training of beneficiaries on low-cost housing construction methodologies through the diffusion of training materials (i.e. tools, sample housing kits).• Procure, transport and distribute 2000 Low cost housing kits.• To provide skilled labour through local communities for the most vulnerable families (e.g. persons with a disability, older persons, and female heads of households).• To monitor and evaluate the intervention ensuring the participation of all stakeholders.

DistrictProject Code KEN-09/S-NF/20737Sector/Cluster Shelter and CCMObjectives To support the return process and enhance access to adequate physical

protection, improved sanitation facilities, and suitable shelter through the provision of shelters to returnees and other affected persons in Molo District.TOTAL:3,000 households, Children: 60% of child headed families; Women: 50%Beneficiaries

Implementing Partners DRCProject Duration Jan 2009 - Dec 2009Funds Requested $949,200

Needs

DRC recent reviews in Molo district have identified the problem of lack of a suitable shelter as a major obstacle to the IDPs return process. DRC has identified many households, who have access to land in their areas of displacement but have no means to re build a shelter and adequate sanitation facilities. In addition, for persons whose houses were partially destroyed during the post election violence, they are not able to repair them due to lack of construction materials. The government is yet to compensate all the IDPs in this area. DRC has also identified other affected populations from the host community who will also require assistance but have always been left out in the previous assistance, which targeted primarily the IDPs.

DRC, through UNHCR Co-funding is now providing 2700 shelter kits in the greater Molo Region, which is only a fraction of the shelter needs on ground. Following the government of Kenya “Rudi nyumbani operation” to assist the IDPs return home, many are returning to their farms without basic NFIs. Many displaced persons continue to arrive in Molo where the displacement was highest in deplorable states, physically and psychologically with no assets. This is also true in most of the transit sites where the majority of the returnees are holding brief before they proceed to their farms.

Activities

• Review the current criteria for beneficiary selection to incorporate the vulnerable host population, in coordination with the community leadership and representatives.• Distribute 1,000 standard shelter kits and 1,000 partial Shelter Kits (mainly roofing materials) for vulnerable returnee and IDP and host populations within the Molo District.• Facilitate construction of 1,000 simple hygienic latrines for the returnees and affected populations.• Conduct distribution monitoring, supervision of shelter construction and post – distribution Monitoring.

Outcomes

• Humanitarian needs met and restoration of dignity facilitated for vulnerable IDPs, host and returnees.• 3,000 IDPs and other affected persons benefit from the shelter and sanitation intervention.• Enhanced return and reintegration of IDPs in the area of origin.

Needs

To-date, about 12,000 IDPs remaining in camps are in need of a durable solution, while over 200,000 have returned to their farms or continue to live in makeshift transit sites near their pre-displacement locations. The majority of those in transit sites and camps live in sub-standard conditions due to lack of funds to construct/rehabilitate their houses and/or purchase basic household items that were lost during the post election violence. In September 2008, the GoK launched a low-cost shelter project that aimed to construct 40,000 low cost houses for persons with destroyed houses and repair 10,000 damaged houses to facilitate the return and reintegration of IDPs. As the Shelter Cluster lead, UNHCR is planning to assist 2,000 of the most vulnerable returnee families (10,000 individuals) through provision of the 'Low Cost Houses' (one unit per family) and provide NFI family kits to 10,000 families. Peace building/reconciliation and other advocacy activities will be included in all projects.

Activities

• International/local procurement of NFIs and shelter materials. • Identification of beneficiaries in close collaboration with the local authorities, area leaders and IDPs/returnees leaders (assessment).• Renting of warehouses, local transport of NFIs and shelter kits from warehouses up to distribution sites and distribution to beneficiaries.• Initiate peace-building activities to facilitate cohabitation and reconciliation between communities.

Outcomes

• Returnees/ affected populations attain a durable solution to displacement through provision of Shelter/ NFI and peace building activities.• Head of families among the beneficiaries can better respond to their families’ basic needs.• 12,000 families benefit from Shelter/ NFI assistance.

Needs

Since May 2008, the Government of Kenya has encouraged IDPs to return their homes under the operation, Rudi Nyumbani (Return Home). Most IDPs – both in camps and hosted – have returned their home areas. However, more than 90% of the returning families do not have the basic financial resources to rebuild their houses, which were either completely or partially destroyed. As such, returning families have ended up in ad hoc transit sites close to their homes and farms. These transit sites lack the minimum standards that were present in the formally established IDP camps. Those not in transit sites are renting rooms in nearby centres. The Government of Kenya has estimated that at least 40,000 shelters are required. The International Organization for Migration (IOM) proposes a project, which is anchored in the principles of Human Security and Rights Based approaches. This project aims to address the Shelter needs of Post Elections Violence (PEV) affected families as central to community stabilisation, peace and reconciliation.

Activities

Building on IOM’s experiences and actions during the Kenya Emergency response and recovery, this proposed project will focus on the provision of shelter to 8,000 Post Elections Violence affected families. These include returning, non-displaced and host families whose homes were destroyed or damaged during the violence. Activities will include:

Coordination, mapping and collaboration with the Government and Shelter Cluster members for the even and equitable distribution of shelter assistance for affected families;

Community assessments and mobilisation for the identification of shelter beneficiaries; Skills training for the construction of shelters; and Construction of shelters.

Outcomes

• Reduced vulnerability of up to 8,000 families through the provision of basic shelter;• Improved environment for effective reintegration and recovery;• Community mobilisation and collaboration improved through shelter activities thereby creating an environment for peace and reconciliation; and• Livelihoods opportunities improved through provision of skills and temporary employment to skilled and unskilled labour.

Needs

Failure of the 2007 short rains (Oct-Dec) and below average 2008 long rains (April-June) has halted recovery and pushed some districts into a drought situation. Several districts in the ASAL areas have been identified by the GoK’s Long Rain Assessment as High Risk although most are affected to some degree. The key issue is to provide access to water and to strengthen GoK’s capacity to plan, implement & monitor emergency WES interventions in drought affected areas.

These districts also suffer from high incidences of diarrhoeal disease, especially amongst children, due to poor sanitation and hygiene behaviour and lack of improved sanitation facilities. This project will focus on WASH in schools, as well as increasing household latrine demand & improving hygiene practices in the surrounding communities, in partnership with MoWI, MoPH&S & MoE.

Activities

• Latrines and rainwater harvesting systems constructed in 40 schools.• School children from 40 schools receive hygiene & sanitation education.• At least ten water supply schemes repaired & rehabilitated.• Water user committees mobilised & trained on management of water schemes.• 30,000 community members reached by hygiene promotion messages.• Local artisans trained in construction of concrete latrine slabs & latrine demand increased.• At least 600 household latrines constructed.• Provision of 12 water quality testing kits & training for GoK personnel.• 4,000 households equipped & using effective household water treatment techniques.• Formation of permanent National WESCOORD secretariat & training for district WESCOORDs to strengthen emergency coordination structures.

Outcomes

• Reduced incidence of water & sanitation diseases in focus districts.• Improved school performance especially for girls in focus districts.• Improved access to safe & sustainable water supplies & improved sanitation facilities for communities in focus districts.• Increased capacity of GoK to plan, implement, coordinate & monitor emergency WES interventions.

Needs

The target areas are classified as Arid and Semi Arid Lands (ASAL), which are the most water scarce, yet least served regions of the country. In Malindi District, only 28% of households have adequate, reliable and easily accessible water coverage, and only 15% of households have sanitation coverage. Due to limited water sources, women and children spend a substantial part of their day fetching water, limiting school attendance and economically productive activities. In Bamba Division, the target area of Kilifi District, only 10% of the population has access to clean, safe and potable water. The situation has been compounded by low rainfall, frequent severe droughts, saline ground water and a lack of perennial rivers and streams. Households in both districts experience regular food shortages, as well high incidences of water, sanitation and hygiene related diseases such as diarrhea and typhoid fever.

Activities

• Form water and sanitation users associations and management committees.• Train management committees on leadership, management, operation and maintenance. • Build communities’ capacity in conflict management.• Conduct hygiene promotion sessions in communities and schools, including safe disposal of liquid and solid waste and change of behaviours.• Construct water supply and sanitation facilities based on appropriate technologies and available water sources.• Conduct water quality testing. • Promote point of use treatment and multiple uses of water (domestic and livestock purposes).• Promote watershed management through construction of soil and water conservation structures.

Outcomes

• Increased access to safe potable water and adequate sanitation facilities.• Improved hygiene behaviours.• Improved local governance and an enabling environment for IWRM at all levels.• Efficient, effective and equitable domestic and productive uses of water, sanitation, hygiene and watershed management.• Reduced incidence of water and sanitation related diseases.

Needs

Large parts of Mandera West, Mandera Central, Wajir West, Wajir North and Wajir East have limited ground water potential for development of boreholes and shallow wells. Generally about 60% of the areas have deficiencies in reliable water despite the availability of good grazing that can support mobile pastoralist. In 2008, the long rains were below normal in these areas leading to early migration to permanent water points and leaving reasonable amount of forage unutilised in wet season grazing areas.

Provision of surface water storage in these areas will allow utilisation of wet season grazing for up to four months after rains thereby reducing the risks associated with drought in these areas and minimising reliance and dependency on relief food for pastoralists’ livelihoods.

Activities

• Construction/rehabilitation of six medium size pans in northern Kenya; • Construction of four large pans in Northern Kenya; • Construction of four sub-surface and/or rock catchments in strategic place;• Protection of 20 shallow wells;• Conflict management on natural resources usage;• Local capacity building for water users.

ASAL areas of Kenya, such as Mandera and Garissa Districts, are caught in a downward spiral of drought and under-development leading to poor health status and loss of livelihoods. For example, in Mandera moderate malnutrition rates are consistently above emergency levels. Incidence of water related diseases are generally greater than 20% in children under five. Livelihoods and traditional coping mechanisms have been eroded leaving the population vulnerable to any type of shock. By definition, water is a key hindrance to any development in ASAL areas. This project aims to increase access to water in ASAL areas for health and livelihoods, linked to complementary sanitation and hygiene activities to protect health.

Activities

• Construction or rehab of School VIP latrines in 35 schools and health and hygiene sessions for primary/secondary school children.• Rehabilitation or construction of 35 Rain Water Harvesting facilities (in riverine community it could be protected wells).• Promotion of household latrine construction to reach 5,400 new users of rural sanitation• Promotion of health and Hygiene among community to reach 54,000 people (including water storage and treatment, solid waste management etc.)• Rehabilitation of ten shallow wells • Construction of seven infiltration wells for existing water supply systems • Construction of three - 90m3 tanks for emergency water supply • Construction of five - 128m3 underground tank for RWH • Training of water committees and capacity building at local and district level

Needs

Various review assessments conducted by the WESCOORD team in Molo district and also internally by DRC on the water and sanitation situation in the return areas reveal glaring gaps in the provision of safe drinking water and sanitation conditions for the returnees and other affected populations.

Molo district, an epicentre of the post election violence has continued to receive many returnees whose water sources are in bad shape with some poisoned and/or destroyed. This means that most water points and sanitation facilities do not meet the required cluster standards given the current population pressures and destruction of previous WASH infrastructure. This has exposed the returnees and also the host population to water borne diseases such as cholera.

To date, DRC has been able to construct 70 emergency latrines, 46 bathrooms and rehabilitated three wells in the most needy returnee areas and transit sites where most returnees are residing before they proceed to their farms. A total of 8,275 returnees have benefited from these services, whilst over 2,000 households are yet to get this assistance. DRC has trained 122 community members on hygiene promotion and water management. The project will target over 2,000 households in 12 farms in Molo division where DRC has been implementing similar WASH activities since April 2008.

Activities

• Construction of 2,000 PIT latrines.• Rehabilitation of 60 water facilities especially the destroyed shallow wells including water testing.• Hygiene promotion and education to at least 2,000 beneficiaries.• Water management training to at least 60 beneficiaries.

Outcomes

• Improved water and sanitation facilities for 4,000 households.• Reduced water borne diseases such as diarrhoea and cholera.• Increased awareness in hygiene practises.• Increased awareness on water management techniques.

Needs

The Post Election Violence (PEV) that followed the 2007 Presidential Election displaced more than 600,000 people. During the PEV emergency many schools were damaged or destroyed. In addition many schools were used as IDP camps and others hosted displaced school children. This led to a strain on already inadequate or overstretched sanitation facitlities in the schools.

As the IDPs return to their former homes there is a need to support construction of WASH services in schools ie construction of latrines and provision of rainwater harvesting structures as well as hygiene education campaigns using the schools as entry points to reach out to the wider community. This will include provision of household water treatment

The project would also support repair of community water supply schemes damaged during the violence as well as form and train Community Water Users Group to managed the repaired water supply schemes effectively.

The project will support to the sector objectives of reducing disease outbreaks and improving school performance as well as contributing to improving access to, and management of, water & sanitation facilities.

Activities

• Conduct hygiene promotion activities to affected populations with a focus on school children.• Support construction of school latrines & water supply infrastructure in 30 schools.• Support training on management of water and sanitation facilities for vulnerable groups.• Support the repair & rehabilitation of damaged water supply & sanitation facilities.

Outcomes

• Improved access to safe drinking water & sanitation facilities for school children in 30 schools in affected areas.• More sustainable & effectively managed community water supplies.• Reduction in ethnic conflict due to scarce or inequitable WES resources.• Reduce future disease outbreaks through improved hygiene behaviour practices & increased demand for improved sanitation facilities.• School performance especially for girls is improved.• Vulnerability to diarrhoea & other water related illnesses by adherence to safe water treatment & usage and use of safe sanitation options is reduced.• Increased capacity of GoK to plan, implement & monitor WES interventions.

Needs

IDP populations in the Trans Nzoia region and the communities that host them suffer from inadequate latrine coverage, with latrine:user ratios as high as 88:1 in July 2008, far beyond SPHERE standards. Access to water was also limited. Pastoralist and sedentary populations in the arid and semi-arid regions of Kenya face increasing risk of food insecurity brought on by drought. Some 1.38 million people in rural areas of Kenya have been rated as highly food insecure and will be unable to meet their minimum food requirements at least through March 2009. Inadequate access to water compounds this difficulty by causing crop failure and harming livestock.

Activities

Trans Nzoia• Construction of communal latrines. • Rehabilitation of shallow wells and spring areas.• Water trucking and vending.• Water sampling and testing.Turkana• Conduct hydro-geological survey. • Provide small-scale drip irrigation systems. • Conduct horticultural, drip irrigation, and cereal and seed-stocking training.• Construct community ponds.• Initiate and supervise construction of hand-dug wells. • Conduct detailed survey for dam construction in Kalokol and construct dam surface for Kalokol water system. • Conduct trainings of local water officials.• Facilitate CDC dialogues on WASH issues and plans for future coping mechanisms.• Implement the use of GIS in the District Water Office and use for community dialogues.

Outcomes

• Latrine coverage in Trans Nzoia in line with WHO/SPHERE standards.• Improved access to and quality of water for the displaced and non-displaced in Trans Nzoia.• Improved access to and quality of water for pastoralists and sedentary communities in Turkana.• Enhanced ability to cope with future droughts and water shortages in Turkana.• Enhanced livelihood mechanisms through access to water.

Needs

Cholera outbreaks in Nyanza and Western Kenya have increasingly been experienced over the past years leading to loss of life affecting thousands of households. The problem is attributed to unsafe drinking water and poor hygiene and sanitation practices. In Nyanza province alone, a total of 760 reported cases of cholera was recorded with 48 reported deaths as a result as per the ministry of health data as of 19 April 2008. It is in this regard that New Life International Kenya seeks to mitigate cholera outbreaks through provision of simple technologies that enhance safe drinking water. The project supports the overall strategic priorities in that it focuses on improving the Water and Sanitation infrastructure of communities affected by cholera outbreaks through preventive interventions.

NLI have developed a solar powered water treatment system which produces chlorine for water disinfection using common table salt. The process has been tested by Kenya Bureau of Standards and was used good effect in IDP camps during the PEV emergency. This system is a sustainable and appropriate method for community management.

Activities

• Installation of 100 water supply, storage & treatment facilities.• Water point quality testing and surveillance.• Construction of Ventilated Improved Pit latrines (VIP) and hand washing facilities.• Training in hygiene education and setting up hygiene clubs in 60 schools.• Formation of 100 Community Water Management Committees.• Provision of technical training on how to operate & manage the water treatment systems.

Outcomes

• Prevention of cholera infection and other water borne diseases.• Reduced mortality rate from cholera infection.• Improved access to clean and safe water at community level.• Increased involvement of communities in maintenance of water treatment plants.• Increased involvement of communities in hygiene education.• Improved sanitation in communities through best hygiene practice.• Increased awareness of the dangers of untreated water.• Improved behavioural change towards safe and clean water.

Needs

Kenya’s post-election violence heavily impacted water and sanitation infrastructure in Uasin Gishu District. Displaced populations moving back to their farms have limited capacity to rehabilitate water and sanitation facilities, since they lost virtually everything during the violence. Communities are currently fetching drinking water from unprotected water sources or walking long distances to gain access to water. Additionally, there are inadequate water and sanitation facilities for the large number of households living in transitional camps.

Activities

• Rehabilitation of 100 shallow wells through protection and installation of hand pumps.• Rehabilitation of 35 water springs (protection, fencing and tree planting).• Installation of rainwater harvesting systems in 20 institutions.• Provision of latrine construction tool sets (hammers, spades, mattocks, wheelbarrows).• Formation and training of water and sanitation management committees.

Outcomes

• Improved access to safe drinking water by both the returnees and non displaced population. • Improved hygiene and sanitation in project target areas.• Proper management of water and sanitation facilities by the communities.• Enhanced peaceful coexistence through sharing of improved community water and sanitation facilities.

Consolidated Appeal Process (CAP)

The CAP is a tool for aid organisations to jointly plan, coordinate, implement and monitor their response to disasters and emergencies, and to appeal for funds together instead of competitively.

It is the forum for developing a strategic approach to humanitarian action, focusing on close cooperation between host governments, donors, non-governmental organisations (NGOs), the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement, International Organization for Migration (IOM), and United Nations agencies. As such, it presents a snapshot of the situation and response plans, and is an inclusive and coordinated programme cycle of:

Strategic planning leading to a Common Humanitarian Action Plan (CHAP); Resource mobilisation leading to a Consolidated Appeal or a Flash Appeal; Coordinated programme implementation; Joint monitoring and evaluation; Revision, if necessary; Reporting on results.

The CHAP is the core of the CAP – a strategic plan for humanitarian response in a given country or region, including the following elements:

A common analysis of the context in which humanitarian action takes place; An assessment of needs; Best, worst, and most likely scenarios; A clear statement of longer-term objectives and goals; Prioritised response plans, including a detailed mapping of projects to cover all needs; A framework for monitoring the strategy and revising it if necessary.

The CHAP is the core of a Consolidated Appeal or, when crises break out or natural disasters strike, a Flash Appeal. Under the leadership of the Humanitarian Coordinator, and in consultation with host Governments and donors, the CHAP is developed at the field level by the Humanitarian Country Team. This team includes IASC members and standing invitees (UN agencies, the International Organisation for Migration, the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement, and NGOs that belong to ICVA, Interaction, or SCHR), but non-IASC members, such as national NGOs, can also be included.

The Humanitarian Coordinator is responsible for the annual preparation of the consolidated appeal document. The document is launched globally near the end of each year to enhance advocacy and resource mobilisation. An update, known as the Mid-Year Review, is presented to donors the following July.

Donors generally fund appealing agencies directly in response to project proposals listed in appeals. The Financial Tracking Service (FTS), managed by the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA), is a database of appeal funding needs and worldwide donor contributions, and can be found on www.reliefweb.int/fts.

In sum, the CAP is how aid agencies join forces to provide people in need the best available protection and assistance, on time.
