Approximately 40% of health facilities in these conflict zones are non-functional, severely limiting access to essential health services, including GBV cases. The erosion of social support systems and destruction of infrastructure have intensified exposure to GBV, while limited humanitarian access continues to hinder effective response.ltbrgtThe project aims to enhance the protection and resilience of women and girls through a coordinated GBV response framework that integrates direct service delivery, community outreach, capacity building, and system strengthening. Key interventions include training for GBV service providers on case management, psychosocial support (PSS), Psychological First Aid (PFA), and Clinical Management of Rape (CMR) to ensure high-quality survivor care. Health facilities will be supported with contraceptive supplies and technical guidance to sustain essential reproductive health services.ltbrgtWGFS will be established or reinforced to provide safe environments offering counseling, legal referrals, and life skills programming. The project will operationalize GBV referral systems and coordinate GBV Area of Responsibility (AoR) mechanisms to improve local capacity and accountability. Dignity kits will be distributed for 1750 survivors of violence, and direct cash support will be provided to 675 GBV survivors and vulnerable women and girls to cover the costs related to case management. Provide mental health and psychosocial support services for 1350 survivors of violence and vulnerable and at risk women and girls,  the project will also avail emergency contrastive and CMR supplies that can serve up to 1345 women and girls, 4000 IEC BCC  materials will be prepared and utilized in community-level campaigns ltbrgtawareness raise of  SRHR, and PSEA, promoting positive behavioral change. Besides, capacity building training will also be provided for frontline service providers. ltbrgtThe project will be implemented in Ofla, Chercher, Zata, Maitsebri, and Telemeti Woredas that are affected by conflict, high GBV incidence, displacement, and lack of accessible services. Both ActionAid Ethiopia(AAE) and New Millennium Women Empowerment Organization (NMWEO) have operational presence in these areas leveraging their relationship, structures and systems for a quality project outcome. ltbrgtActionAid and NMWEO, a local women-led NGO, co-designed this project.

The two targeted woredas alone are hosting 88461 IDPs.lt/bgt Recent needs assessment reveal that the IDP camps are very crowded, health conditions remain dire, there are no sufficient WASH facilities and people are being forced to use untreated water from open sources, putting the entire community at serious public health risk. Water availability is major challenge as there are no sufficient functioning water sources and thus households receive water far below the minimum standard, forcing overcrowding at limited water points in the host community. Many women walk long distances to fetch water and wait for hours before it is their turn while others resort to unsafe sources. The absence of organized water and sanitation systems significantly increases the risk of disease outbreaks. Sanitation conditions are deteriorating rapidly. Most latrines in the IDP campsnbspare fully or partially non-functional, and due to recent funding cuts, many implementing partners had faced out or suspended projects, while the local administration has limited capacity to support the people in need.nbspltbrgtThe public health risks of the IDPs need an ltbgtintegrated WASH responselt/bgt which this project is designed for. Through this project, Oxfam in Ethiopianbspwill contribute to address the major WASH gaps by implementing focused interventions that will improve supply of clean water to the target communities, as well asnbsppersonal and environmental hygiene. Communal and institutional Sanitation facilities will be rehabilitated,nbspenabling IDPs to have access to dignified sanitation services. Through the hygiene promotion and community engagement, people's awareness and knowledgenbspwill increase leading to appropriate sanitation practices,nbspand personal and environmental hygiene. Oxfam in Ethiopia has conducted a Rapid Need Assessment on the ground and criticalnbspWASH gaps have beennbspidentified, in consultation with the Regional WASH Cluster, the local authorities and the other stakeholders (e.g. PAD, UNOCHA, UNHCR, etc.).nbspTherefore, this intervention will focus onnbsptwonbspworedas of North-westernnbspzone, namely Asgede and Laelay koraro/selekleka woredas, targeting four IDP camps (i.e.nbspAdi-Mohameday,nbspHitsatsi,nbspMay-Hanse,nbspSelekleka)nbspandnbspneighbouring host communities, bltbgtenefiting a total of 83,150 peoplelt/bgt. ltbgtThe project will be completed within 9 months and needs a total of 600,000nbspUSD.lt/bgtlt/pgtOXFAM GBOXFAM GBEthiopia Humanitarian FundWater, Sanitation and Hygiene362376.24237623.76600000.00Ethiopia Humanitarian FundOXFAM GB480000.00Ethiopia Humanitarian FundOXFAM GB120000.00Ethiopia Humanitarian FundOXFAM GBXM-OCHA-CBPF-CBPF-ETH-25-R-INGO-36076United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian AffairsltpgtltbrgtThis project aims to enhance the protection of communities affected by displacement in the Northwestern Zone of Tigray. The focus geographic areas include Asgede (with sites in Adi Mahmameday, Hitsats, and Mayhanse), Laelay Koraro (site: Selekleka), Shire Endaslasie town (with sites at Fre Swuat, Hibret, Shire General, Gaba Weyane, and Tsehaye Schools), and Tahtay Adiyabo (sites: May Kuheli and Shimblilina) Woredas. NRC and IMC will utilize their specific expertise, with NRC implementing general protection measures and IMC concentrating on GBV response. ltbrgtIMC aims to ensure critical lifesaving GBV prevention, risk mitigation and response services, supporting clinical SRH services and MHPSS services for GBV survivors and at-risk women and girls. This will ensure continued access to quality GBV services through existing IMC WGSS in Shire/Fresewat, Adimehameday and Mayhansen. The project will integrate GBV response services into SRH within HFs in the locations of Selekleka, and MayKuheli by deploying response staff to provide quality GBV case management services for survivors of GBV. The project will deploy community mobilizers to disseminate critical lifesaving information about service availability and access. These community mobilisers will also play a key role in linking survivors and at-risk women and girls from Shire IDP sites of Taba Woyane, and Shire general, to existing WGSS in Shire (Fresewat and Adikentibay) for comprehensive GBV services. The programme also enhances referral pathways and capacity for GBV responses through coordination with the BoWSA, health bureau, and WLO, including Moms for Moms, New Millennium Women Empowerment, and Heal Our People, and other relevant service providers. IMC will strengthen the capacity of service providers to meet survivors’ holistic needs, whilst engaging communities to reduce stigma and promote GBV prevention and response. To mitigate the risk of GBV, the project plans to conduct a safety audit and provide emergency dignity kit support, access to clinical and specialized care. GBV survivors and individuals who experience psychological distress will have lifesaving access to clinical SRH and MHPSS services  with intersectoral coordination. These services will be integrated through timely, cross-sectoral referrals with WGSS and the closest HFs, alongside trained MHPSS officers who will provide specialized mental health services and psychoeducation for moderate to severe cases. Capacity-building training will also be offered to GBV and WLO workers on trauma-informed care, identification and timely referral of mental health conditions, and responding to crisis, suicide, and self-harm behaviors.ltbrgtltbrgtNRC aims to implement activities to improve general protection of displacement affected communities in NW Zone of Tigray. NRC will conduct protection monitoring with the aim of identifying protection risks for the target community and violations of rights, including information on the locations and movement of newly-arrived IDPs and barriers to accessing services, which will contribute towards informed programming and advocacy. Secondly, NRC will establish protection desks in six IDP sites in with the aim of providing protection services, including vulnerability screening, capacity building, and awareness raising. NRC will provide cash-based intervention for the most vulnerable amongst the target community to minimize their exposure to protection risks and counter negative coping mechanisms.ltbrgtThe proposal also feeds into the areas-based approach in the allocation strategy. Under both general protection and GBV program, a number of capacity building activities are planned for local authorities, community leaders and organizations, with the aim of producing sustainable outcomes.ltbrgt Overall, the actions in this project are aligned with the allocation strategy and priorities of the Protection Cluster strategy, and the 2025 Priority Humanitarian Response and Critical Funding Gaps.  ltbrgtlt/pgt  ltpgt ltbrgtlt/pgtNorwegian Refugee CouncilNorwegian Refugee CouncilInternational Medical CorpsEthiopia Humanitarian FundProtection378099.17121900.83500000.00Ethiopia Humanitarian FundNorwegian Refugee Council500000.00Ethiopia Humanitarian FundNorwegian Refugee CouncilXM-OCHA-CBPF-CBPF-ETH-25-R-INGO-36085United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian AffairsltpgtltbrgtLocation: Aduwa, Axum, and Abi Adi woredas of the Tigray region. ltbrgtDuration: 8 monthsltbrgtBudget: $400,000ltbrgtContext: These areas remain among the most vulnerable due to the impact of protracted conflict, prolonged drought, and the breakdown of essential services, resulting in widespread displacement and severe WASH-related challenges. The disruption of water supply systems, lack of sanitation facilities, and limited hygiene services have heightened the risk of waterborne disease outbreaks, particularly cholera, and have severely affected the dignity and well-being of displaced populations. In May 2025, SCI, Nexuses, and OSSA conducted a joint WASH assessment across 18 IDP camps in Axum, Adwa, and Abi Adi, covering 37,265 households (207,819 individuals), including vulnerable groups. The findings reveal severe water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) deficiencies:ltbrgt Water access is critically low—2–5 liters per person per day, below SPHERE standards—with long queues and reliance on unsafe sources. Eight camps use untreated water, leading to increased disease.ltbrgt Sanitation is severely lacking, with over 100 people per latrine in some camps and widespread open defecation.ltbrgt Hygiene conditions are dire: no soap, handwashing facilities, or menstrual hygiene support, and poor waste management.ltbrgt Health risks include outbreaks of diarrhea, bilharzia, parasites, malaria, typhus, and potential cholera.ltbrgtObjective: Save the Children (SCI) proposes a focused, coordinated, urgent WASH yet multi-sectoral response or emergency intervention aimed at delivering life-saving services and building community resilience among internally displaced populations in Aduwa, Axum, and Abi Adi woredas of the Tigray region. ltbrgtStrategies: To address these urgent needs, in partnership with NEXUS, PAD and OSSHD for complementarity, the project will rehabilitate non-functional water schemes, extend pipeline connections to 12 IDP sites, install solar-powered water systems to ensure sustainable access, and provide water treatment chemicals. In addition, the intervention includes the construction and rehabilitation of sex-segregated latrines with handwashing facilities, desludging and maintenance of waste pits, construction of solid and liquid waste disposal pits, and the rehabilitation of shower facilities and washing basins. IPC and cleaning supplies will be distributed to support infection prevention and control, particularly in IDP-hosting areas. Hygiene promotion activities will also be carried out to enhance awareness and adoption of safe hygiene behaviors. ltbrgtProject Target: This WASH intervention is expected to directly benefit approximately 12,750 people and indirectly support an additional 22,700 individuals, including community members, health workers, and traders.

Food insecurity remains a central issue driven by recurrent climate shocks, low agricultural productivity soaring food prices. The Tigray region of Ethiopia continues to face a profound humanitarian crisis following years of armed conflict, displacement, and destruction of basic services. Communities in Erob, GuloMekeda and Zelambesa remain heavily affected, with women, girls, persons with disabilities, and other vulnerable groups carrying the greatest burden. The region in general has not yet recovered from the northern Ethiopia conflict that has devastated basic services, infrastructures and has contributed to some of the humanitarian needs. The Rapid Gender Analysis conducted by CARE (June 2025) for Irob and Gulomekda shows that escalated protection risks with widespread Gender-based violence (GBV), including sexual assault, early and forced marriage, trafficking, and intimate partner violence. Women and girls are most affected, but men and boys also face detention, forced migration, and violence. Weak justice systems and limited survivor services leave communities unprotected. Access to services such as health facilities, schools, and water systems are either destroyed or non-functional is severely constrained. Essential services such as sexual and reproductive health (SRH), GBV response, and education remain largely unavailable, particularly in remote and insecure areas. Many households survive on one meal per day particularly vulnerable groups including female-headed households, child-headed households, older people, and persons with disabilities often excluded from aid distributions which has exacerbated food insecurity. Farming systems, livestock, and markets were looted or destroyed which has led to deterioration of livelihoods. Malnutrition is a critical issue in the geographical areas where the GAM rate among children lt 5 ranges between 15% to 32.8% while MAM rate among PLW the ranges between 33.4% to 43% in these woredas. ltbrgtAgainst this backdrop, CARE Ethiopia, in partnership with CRADO, will implement a targeted humanitarian response in the Eastern Zone of Tigray. The intervention will focus on ltspangtZalambesa tolt/spangtltspangtwn and lt/spangtltspangtthe woredas of Ilt/spangtltspangtrob, and Gulo Mekeda.lt/spangtlt/pgtltpgtThis project is strategically designed to complement and add value to existing interventions by the consortium in the identified areas, while carefully avoiding duplication and resource waste backed by the rapid needs assessment conducted for all the locations. CARE is currently implementing project activities in WASH, health, nutrition, and protection sectors. To maximize impact and efficiency, project activities have been adapted to meet identified gaps: activities already covered by existing programs are deprioritized in overlapping locations, allowing the consortium to shift focus to underserved woredas.ltbrgtOverall, this response aims to address urgent humanitarian needs through the sectors of ESNFI, WASH and Agriculture while laying the foundation for safe, dignified, and sustainable solutions for returning and host communities in the affected woredas.ltbrgtlt/pgtCare EthiopiaCare EthiopiaCenter for Rehabilitation and Development Ethiopia Humanitarian FundEmergency Shelter and NFIFood SecurityWater, Sanitation and Hygiene87912.09712087.91800000.00Ethiopia Humanitarian FundCare Ethiopia800000.00Ethiopia Humanitarian FundCare EthiopiaXM-OCHA-CBPF-CBPF-ETH-25-R-INGO-37940United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian AffairsltpgtThis project, jointly implemented by Doctors with Africa CUAMM and RADO, proposes to urgently deliver crucial integrated humanitarian response to respond to the urgent needs of unregistered South Sudanese refugees and vulnerable host communities in Ethiopia’s Nuer Zone, particularly in Wantawo and Makuey Woredas.

Mobile Health and Nutrition Teams (MHNTs) will provide lifesaving services—including outpatient consultations, antenatal care, immunization, mental health support, and cholera response—to hard-to-reach areas, while ambulance support and referral mechanisms will aim to reduce delays in accessing higher-level care. Community outreach agents shall promote early detection, health awareness, and service uptake, while safeguarding and accountability will be reinforced through PSEAH training and confidential feedback mechanisms.ltbrgtCUAMM’s implementing partner, RADO, will lead the protection component, establishing community-based GBV and child protection systems, delivering case management and psychosocial support, and creating safe spaces for women, girls, and children. The project also distributes emergency shelter and kits to the most vulnerable households, with inclusive targeting and practical demonstrations to ensure safe and effective use. Dialogue sessions and joint community initiatives will promote peaceful coexistence and resilience, while a multi-channel complaint and feedback mechanism ensures transparency and community empowerment.ltbrgtThe project will benefit from the long-lasting presence of both organisations in the region and operational zones. CUAMM has worked in Gambella region of Ethiopia as one of the main health NGO partners since 2016, providing support to both host and refugee communities. Moreover, RADO and CUAMM will count on their pre-existing collaboration through the AICS-funded project INCLUSIVE “Strengthening prevention, equitable, and inclusive care for all” in Gambella (Woredas of Gabella Town, Gambella Zuria and Abobo), aimed at specifically improve the health and well-being conditions of people at risks and with disabilities in the region.ltbrgtlt/pgtDoctors with Africa CUAMMDoctors with Africa CUAMMRehabilitation and Development OrganizationEthiopia Humanitarian FundHealthProtection49504.95450495.05500000.00Ethiopia Humanitarian FundDoctors with Africa CUAMM200000.00Ethiopia Humanitarian FundDoctors with Africa CUAMM200000.00Ethiopia Humanitarian FundDoctors with Africa CUAMMXM-OCHA-CBPF-CBPF-ETH-25-R-INGO-37953United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian AffairsltpgtThe humanitarian crisis in Northern Ethiopia remains one of the most severe in the world, driven by the devastating legacy of conflict, climate shocks, and mass displacement. According to the IOM Displacement Tracking Matrix (March 2025), the situation remains fluid, with Northern Ethiopia still hosting a significant proportion of the country's 3.5 million Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs). The Eastern Zone of Tigray, and specifically Adigrat town, epitomizes this protracted emergency. ltbrgtlt/pgtltpgtltbrgtThe erosion of essential public services has created alarming humanitarian conditions. Access to primary healthcare is extremely limited, and the breakdown of water and sanitation systems has triggered the spread of waterborne diseases. Protection risks have sharply escalated, with increasing cases of family separation, gender-based violence (GBV), and child exploitation. Malnutrition among children and pregnant and lactating women (PLWs) remains above emergency thresholds, while psychosocial distress continues to affect both displaced and host populations.ltbrgtIn response, this project—submitted under the Ethiopia Humanitarian Fund (EHF) Third Reserve Allocation—proposes a comprehensive, integrated life-saving intervention targeting 102,598 of the most vulnerable IDPs and host community members in Adigrat. The overall objective is to reduce excess morbidity and mortality while strengthening protection systems and resilience through a coordinated, multi-sectoral response.ltbrgtHealth: Two Mobile Health and Nutrition Teams (MHNTs) will provide essential Primary Health Care (PHC), Mental Health and Psychosocial Support (MHPSS), and Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights (SRHR) services. The project will rehabilitate two damaged health facilities to restore static service delivery and strengthen community-based disease surveillance to prevent outbreaks.ltbrgtNutrition: The intervention will conduct systematic screening of 550 children under five and PLWs for acute malnutrition, provide life-saving treatment for 170 cases of Severe and Moderate Acute Malnutrition (SAM/MAM), and establish 50 Mother-to-Mother Support Groups to promote Infant and Young Child Feeding (IYCF) practices, contributing to sustainable nutrition outcomes.ltbrgtWASH: To address the acute shortage of safe water, the project will provide immediate water trucking to 2,667 beneficiaries, procure a 10,000-liter tanker for sustainable supply, and rehabilitate six gender-segregated latrine blocks to ensure dignified and safe sanitation facilities.ltbrgtChild Protection and GBV: The project will deliver gender- and age-sensitive case management to 270 at-risk children, facilitate Family Tracing and Reunification (FTR) for 100 unaccompanied and separated children, and establish three Safe Spaces to provide structured psychosocial support. In addition, local community structures will be trained to identify, refer, and mitigate protection and GBV risks.ltbrgtMulti-Purpose Cash Assistance (MPCA): Cash interventions will be integrated across sectors to empower vulnerable households. Conditional cash transfers will support 100 alternative caregivers in foster arrangements, while unconditional multipurpose cash will help families meet their basic needs, reduce negative coping mechanisms, and reinforce the effectiveness of other life-saving interventions.ltbrgtThis holistic and integrated response was developed in close coordination with sub-national clusters, relevant line bureaus, and local authorities to ensure alignment with cluster priorities, efficiency in delivery, and the avoidance of duplication. The project adheres to core humanitarian principles and mainstreams cross-cutting commitments to Protection, Gender Equality, Disability Inclusion, and Accountability to Affected Populations (AAP) throughout the implementation cycle.lt/pgtltpgtlt/pgtChildFund EthiopiaChildFund EthiopiaTigray Youth Empowerment SolutionEthiopia Humanitarian FundHealthNutritionProtectionMulti-purpose CASH68904.69400091.73468996.42Ethiopia Humanitarian FundChildFund Ethiopia375197.14Ethiopia Humanitarian FundChildFund Ethiopia93799.28Ethiopia Humanitarian FundChildFund EthiopiaXM-OCHA-CBPF-CBPF-ETH-25-R-INGO-37988United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian AffairsltpgtIDP communities living in Dhas and Arero woredas of East Borena Zone of the Oromia Region in Ethiopia are displaced due to insecurity related to armed group activities in the zone and intercommunal conflict along the Oromia-Somali bordering areas of Somali region.

In Amhara region, the second episode of cholera outbreak started in Bati district (from April 03, 2024, to Apr 7, 2025): a total of 5,874 cases were line-listed with 79 deaths, (CFR 1.34%) were reported the outbreak expanded to 45 districts of 20 zones/City administrations. The GAM rate among children under 5 are 24% which far exceeding the threshold. Meanwhile, the drought has so far displaced over 1,200 people in two deeply impacted zones of North Gondar and Wag Hamra of the Amhara Region. (5) at least 2.4 million livestock face shortage of water and feed in seven zones and nearly 175,000 livestock migrated to neighboring kebeles, in search of water and feed according to the APHI.ltbrgtAt least half of the IDPs in the region are not receiving humanitarian assistance for lack of Government and partners' resource capacities and insecurity. There is delay and shortages of general food distribution (GFD) in IDP sites in North Gondar, North Wello, Wag Hamra, South Wello, Central Gondar and North Shewa zones, where nutrition support is being provided through mobile health and nutrition teams (MHNTs). In response to this crisis, AEID planned to support the cholera epidemic, conflict and drought-affected communities of North Gojjam, Bahirdar Zuria, Andasa Holiy Site, Bahirdar City, in Amhara.

A targeted needs assessment confirmed a high prevalence of GBV: 24,320 women and girls in Kiremu, 21,142 in Guto Gida, and 25,243 in Jardega Jarte. These figures reflect a deepening protection crisis where conflict, displacement, and the collapse of protection systems have heightened the risk of sexual violence, exploitation, early and forced marriage, and psychological abuse. Access to GBV services remains severely disrupted. The assessment identified major gaps in case management, mental health and psychosocial support (MHPSS), sexual and reproductive health (SRH) services, emergency cash assistance, and operational One-Stop Centers (OSCs). Survivors face limited access to clinical care, legal aid, and psychosocial support due to the lack of trained personnel, safe service points, and functional referral pathways. Without urgent action, thousands will remain unprotected and unsupported. This project proposes a comprehensive, multipile responses aligned with the GBV Area of Responsibility (GBV AoR) 2025 Allocation Strategy. It prioritizes survivor-centered care, integration of services, and local capacity strengthening. The intervention will address immediate needs and contribute to long-term resilience in underserved, high-risk communities. Key interventions include the deployment of GBV caseworkers and MHPSS staff to provide trauma-informed, confidential support at mobile and fixed service points capacity strengthening for frontline providers through trainings on GBV case management, clinical management of rape (CMR), psychosocial first aid (PFA), and survivor-centered approaches and operationalization  Women and Girls Friendly Spaces (WGFS) will be established or enhanced to provide safe, inclusive environments for psychosocial support, life skills development, vocational training, and GBV information sharing. Survivors and vulnerable women will also receive vocational training and startup support to strengthen economic resilience and reduce reliance on negative coping mechanisms. Emergency cash assistance will be provided to facilitate access to essential services, enhancing survivor safety and autonomy. Integrated SRH services will include CMR, post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP), STI treatment, and emergency contraception, supported by the distribution of dignity kits to uphold menstrual hygiene and well-being. Community engagement will be conducted through awareness campaigns on GBV, PSEA, and SRHR, alongside the dissemination of locally adapted IEC materials to reduce stigma and promote help-seeking behavior. Service mapping and protection risk analysis will ensure responsive, context-specific programming. To strengthen coordination and learning, the project will hold quarterly review meetings with GBV actors and a final government-led evaluation to assess impact and guide future programming. Continuous monitoring and post-distribution monitoring (PDM) will ensure accountability and evidence-informed adjustments. With a total requested budget of USD 300,000.00 the project aims to reach 110,909 individuals, including 70,705 women and girls identified as GBV survivors in the target districts.

Over 60% of health facilities are either non-functional or only partially operational due to damage, shortages of medical supplies, or the absence of trained personnel (MIRA, 2024 PAD, 2025). Maternal health services and child nutrition programs are especially weak. The shortage of IYCF materials has further worsened the conditions of malnourished mothers and children. The health infrastructure is in urgent need of rehabilitation, and these constraints are limiting access to critical, life-saving services for women, children, and the elderly, leaving them vulnerable to preventable health risks.ltbrgtRecent nutrition assessments highlight critical levels of GAM: 39% in Abergele, and 47% in Gaz Gibla. MAM rates are reported at 31.5% and 40.14% for Abergele and Gaz Gibla Woredas respectively (PAD, 2025). These figures exceed emergency thresholds and signal a nutrition crisis that demands an urgent response. PAD, in collaboration with local authorities, will implement integrated health and nutrition interventions to reduce malnutrition, morbidity, and mortality among the most vulnerable, children under 5, PLW, and PWDs aligned with the 2024 HRP.ltbrgtThe proposed project will address urgent humanitarian needs in Abergele and Gaz Gibla woredas. These areas have been severely impacted by conflict and recurrent drought, leading to a significant decline in health and nutritional well-being. Multiple assessments conducted by both internal teams and external actors have identified critical service delivery gaps, underscoring the need for immediate and coordinated humanitarian action.ltbrgtThe project will deliver essential, life-saving health and nutrition interventions, prioritizing women, children, and PWDs.

Within these zones, woredas such as Quara, Alefa, Chilga 1,  TachArmachiho, West Dembia, Gendawah Town, Takusa and East Belessa have experienced surges in cholera transmission and fatalities. Internally displaced persons (IDPs), returnees, and vulnerable host communities are at greatest risk, living in overcrowded shelters with limited access to clean water, sanitation, and healthcare.ltbrgtIn response, Faith in Action (FIA)—a national, women-led organization with extensive experience in WASH and health programming—is Proposed a six-month emergency cholera response titled: “Lifesaving Cholera Outbreak Response to support vulnerable communities (IDPs/Returnees and Host communities) in Central and West Gondar Zones, Amhara Region.” The intervention aims to reduce cholera-related morbidity and mortality by improving access to safe water, sanitation, and health services, while strengthening community-level disease prevention and control.ltbrgtThe project will directly benefit 8081 people, targeting IDPs, returnees, and at-risk host communities in the 8 affected woredas. Key activities include rehabilitating and solarizing water systems, distributing WASH supplies and water treatment chemical constructing emergency latrines and handwashing stations deploying/strengthening rapid response health teams and support Cholera Treatment Centres (CTCs) with Oral Rehydration Points (ORPs) with critical medical supplies. Community Health Volunteers (CHVs) will lead hygiene promotion campaigns through door-to-door education, group sessions, and RCCE (Risk Communication and Community Engagement) efforts, emphasizing handwashing, safe water handling, and early care-seeking behaviours.ltbrgtFIA will collaborate closely with local government health and water bureaus, humanitarian clusters, and existing coordination platforms to avoid duplication, share data, and ensure harmonized response efforts. The project builds on FIA’s current cholera response intervention in Quara Woreda and will also expand activities to Alefa, Chilga 1, TachArmachiho, West Dembia, Gendawah Town, Takusa and East Belessa. This scale-up will leverage existing infrastructure, partnerships, and trained staff, enabling fast and cost-effective delivery.ltbrgtMonitoring, evaluation, and accountability will be embedded throughout the project using sex- and age-disaggregated data, regular field verification, community feedback mechanisms, and participatory assessments. All activities will be inclusive and protection-sensitive, with special attention to the needs of women, children, persons with disabilities, and the elderly. As a local organization, FIA ensures that 100% of implementation is community-led, with no pass-through arrangements.ltbrgtUltimately, this project presents a timely and lifesaving intervention aligned with Ethiopia’s 2025 Humanitarian Response Plan (HRP) and national cholera response strategy.

Women and girls in these areas face heightened risks of abduction, sexual violence, physical harm, rape, and denial of properties. Despite the high prevalence of GBV risks, response and protection services remain inadequate due to several factors. Many health facilities are damaged from conflict, limiting access to essential health services for women and girls. There is a lack of GBV case management and there no One-Stop Center or Women and Girls Safe Space in targeted areas. Additionally, MHPSS services are insufficient, and there is a lack of awareness-raising efforts on GBV prevention and management in the community. Furthermore, frontline staff and health professionals have not received the necessary training on GBV case management.ltbrgtIn response to these urgent needs, CoC proposes a project titled "Responding to Gender based Violence (GBV) Survivors, Vulnerable Women and Girls in the contested areas of Wolkayt, Tsegede and Humera". The overarching objective of this 7-month project is to provide comprehensive protection services, mitigate GBV risks, and support the recovery and resilience of those affected. The project will address the multifaceted needs of survivors through an integrated approach encompassing GBV case management, MHPSS, and essential sexual and reproductive health services.  Key activities include:ltbrgt Provision of life-saving GBV response services, including case management, MHPSS, and referral services. ltbrgt Establishing Women and Girls Safe Spaces (WGSS)ltbrgt Training and capacity building of frontline service providers, including healthcare workers, social workers, police, and community leaders on GBV response, referral pathways, and survivor-centered approachesltbrgt Community-based awareness and risk mitigation initiatives, including information sessions on GBV prevention, reporting mechanisms, and the availability of services.ltbrgt Strengthening referral pathways to ensure timely and safe access to multi-sectoral support including health, legal, psychosocial, and protection services.  ltbrgtBy implementing these activities, the project will contribute to reducing protection risks for women and girls and ensuring access to life-saving protection services.

The hardest-hit districts—Bahir Dar Zuria, Bahir Dar City, and Jawi—face critical transmission risks due to inadequate WASH infrastructure, poor hygiene practices, and reliance on contaminated water sources. Pilgrim mobility and worsening security conditions have further exacerbated the outbreak, with holy water sites like Andasa and Abuna Hara serving as transmission hotspots. Humanitarian response efforts have been severely constrained due to ongoing armed conflicts and displacement (OCHA, WHO).ltbrgtIn response, Health Development and Anti-Malaria Association (HDAMA) is launching a 6-month emergency cholera intervention from June 2025 to January 2026, targeting Yilmana Densa district. This $169,999.98 initiative aims to reach 100,000 individuals, including 12,000 pilgrims, with an integrated Health, WASH, and Risk Communication and Community Engagement (RCCE) approach. The primary goal is to reduce the case fatality rate to below 1% among an anticipated caseload of 10,000.ltbrgtThe Health component will enhance cholera case management by training 50 local healthcare workers in critical areas such as IPC and the operation of CTCs and ORPs. CTCs and health posts will be equipped with ORS, RL solution, and essential antibiotics. Additionally, vaccination and sensitization campaigns will educate 50,000 people on prevention and available services.ltbrgtThe WASH component will improve access to safe water by installing two 20,000-liter storage tanks, rehabilitating two wells and natural springs, and constructing sanitation facilities—including constructing two communal latrines and two shower rooms at the selected holy water sites. WASH NFIs such as soap and jerrycans will be distributed to 68,800 beneficiaries, and 30 health workers will be trained in IPC measures..ltbrgtThe RCCE strategy will engage 14,000 individuals (70% of the target population) through billboards, leaflets, media broadcasts, and mobile van outreach.

This conflict has resulted in mass displacement, loss of livelihoods, compromised access to food, and disrupted essential services. An emergency food security assessment (EFSA) conducted in Tigray in February 2023 highlighted that 38 percent of the population experienced insufficient food consumption, particularly impacting the nutrition status of women and children under five years. According to SMART plus survey conducted in December-2023, a high prevalence of acute malnutrition in the region with 15.9 percent of children aged 6-59 months being malnourished according to WHO/UNICEF thresholds. Within this group, 3.1 percent had severe acute malnutrition (SAM), and 12.8 percent had moderate acute malnutrition (MAM).  The prevalence of acute malnutrition (proxy-GAM) across all surveyed areas was high at 25.2% based on the Mid-Upper Arm Circumference (MUAC) measurements. In response to the escalating malnutrition crisis affecting children, women, and other vulnerable populations, this project aims to provide a comprehensive and integrated health and nutrition interventions. Moreover, the region's health system, already weakened by ongoing challenges, is struggling to manage multiple concurrent outbreaks, particularly among IDPs. The proposed project will deliver a robust package of services across health facilities and communities including the establishment and strengthening of Outpatient Therapeutic Programs (OTPs) and Stabilization Centers (SCs) to provide both preventive and curative care for SAM, deploying of MHNT to provide basic preventive and curative primary health care services for IDPs and hard to reach communities, procure and support medical supplies to strengthen the health facilities ability to provide quality services, supporting the health system through technical and logistical support in responding to multiple outbreaks occurring in the region, making minor rehabilitation for health facilities damaged during conflict to provide the necessary health and nutrition services for the affected communities. Furthermore, ASDEPO empowers local communities and health facilities to take ownership of their health and nutrition outcomes through partnerships with health offices and local leaders, fostering durable, community-led solutions that enhance the sustainability and effectiveness of interventions. This integrated approach also focuses on strengthening health systems to deliver a comprehensive nutrition services, involving capacity building for health workers, improving infrastructure, and ensuring the availability of essential supplies and equipment. By leveraging local knowledge, building community capacity, and inter-sectoral collaboration, ASDEPO aims to create lasting change that extends beyond immediate relief efforts, contributing to the broader goal of ending all forms of malnutrition by 2030. The proposed project aims to deliver crucial nutrition and health support to vulnerable communities in Ahferom, Chilla, and Adwa from central zone and Zalanbesa, Freweini, Kilite Awlalo, Edaga Hamus towns/woredas from Eastern zone of the Tigray region.  ASDEPO will support by implementing integrated nutrition and health response, strengthening of the health system in responding to malnutrition and outbreaks. The targeted areas have the highest case load of people who have been affected by prolonged conflict. The project's design aligns with the identified needs and priorities of both the government and humanitarian clusters, acknowledging the increased humanitarian demands in the targeted areas due to conflict and challenging conditions.ltbrgt The total budget of the project is 1000,000 USD.

Currently, the region hosts 760,406 IDPs still living in a difficult situation, including in collective centers and schools. According to DTM SA R37, the Central Zone hosts 196,229 IDPs (25.7%), yet shelter capacity remains critically low, compounded by prolonged resource shortages, overcrowding, and fragile shelter structures. As of March 2025, only 3% of the Cluster’s target population (501,000 individuals) had been reached with shelter or NFI assistance.ltbrgtThe proposed project aims to support IDPs in need of critical ESNFI support in Central Zone, Adwa, Axum, and Aby Adi, which host 39,814, 37,266, and 36,154 IDPs, respectively. Considering the high needs and the limited resources, Nexus Ethiopia targets a total of 3500 IDPs HHs or 19250 IDPs to get Emergency Shelter Kits (including for PWD, people with chronic illness, and older persons). The planned response is in line with the standard guidelines of the ES/NFI Cluster. On top of the ES/NFI cluster recommendations, to determine the feasibility of response, Nexus Ethiopia will conduct a joint beneficiaries selection and targeting with the key stakeholders in the IDP camps in Axum, Adwa, and Abiy Adi towns. The ES in-kind support improves the shelter conditions. The project will get 5000 plastic sheets from IOM core pipeline as in-kind support, which will be distributed to 2500 HHs. The remaining plastic sheet needs will be procured from local market.ltbrgtThe project will be implemented over a period of six months. 15% of the total beneficiaries will be  PWDs, older persons, and persons with chronic illnesses. The project mainstreams a conflict-sensitivity perspective and implements a do-no-harm approach to reduce tensions and potential conflicts in the community. Nexus Ethiopia will coordinate closely with the ES/NFI cluster at the National and regional levels, UN, INGOs, and other relevant clusters, such as the CCCM cluster or CCCM partner OSSHD, to ensure a coordinated response. Nexus Ethiopia adheres to the Core Humanitarian Standards (CHS) and to national and cluster standards during the provision of assistance, including providing priority to PWD, the elderly, and women-headed HHs. Nexus Ethiopia applies an age, gender, and diversity lens to all phases of the project cycle and will work closely with protection experts to maximize benefits and mitigate protection risks. Overall, the project contributes to the overarching ES/NFI cluster objectives and the 2025 Humanitarian Response Plan (HRP), priorities set for Tigray by the national and regional ES/NFI cluster, EHF allocation strategy, and Tigray region humanitarian response plan through saving the lives of IDPs in the project locations.ltbrgtltbrgtlt/pgtNexus of National Humanitarian Actors in Ethiopia (Nexus Ethiopia)Nexus of National Humanitarian Actors in Ethiopia (Nexus Ethiopia)Ethiopia Humanitarian FundEmergency Shelter and NFI400000.00400000.00Ethiopia Humanitarian FundNexus of National Humanitarian Actors in Ethiopia (Nexus Ethiopia)200000.00Ethiopia Humanitarian FundNexus of National Humanitarian Actors in Ethiopia (Nexus Ethiopia)200000.00Ethiopia Humanitarian FundNexus of National Humanitarian Actors in Ethiopia (Nexus Ethiopia)XM-OCHA-CBPF-CBPF-ETH-25-R-NGO-35843United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian AffairsltpgtltbrgtThe scale and intensity of the damages done throughout the two-year war in Tigray have been much deeper in women ending up in SGBV survivors. Experts estimate that GBV was committed against at least 40 to 50 percent of women and girls in the Tigray and other affected regions of Ethiopia. Further, approximately 80 percent of cases reported rape, and over 90 percent of cases were perpetrated against underage girls. However, these victims have never received enough mental health and psychological support, social and economic rehabilitation support and most of them are still under traumatic conditions and highly involved in negative coping mechanisms in the target intervention areas. Adigrat, Erob, Zala Anbesa and Gulomekeda Woredas have experienced all the ordeals of the conflict induced GBV crisis while lagging to get adequate responses identified as hotspot areas on account of their location neighboring where protection services has not still been adequately addressed. The Protection cluster as well as GBV AOR of Tigray identified those as priority areas that need emergency response services to address the crisis in these areas. Due to the damages of the health facilities, the provision of essentials of Sexual and Reproductive Health (SRH) Services is very limited. ltbrgtThe scope of intervention of the project entails addressing the basic protection needs of the affected population by responding to the critical GBV as well as essentials of SRH service gaps in the areas.

This project endeavors to support droughtnbsp-affected communities with limited access to essential services provided by humanitarian partners and governmental structures, thereby mitigating morbidity and mortality in Asgede, Laelay Koraro, Shire Endaslasie town, Tahtay Adiyabo IDP sites, as well as Zana and Tahtay Adiyabo Woredas in the North West Zone, and Adet Woreda in the Central Zone of the Tigray region. The Health and Nutrition sector's response, with the integration of protection activities in accordance with the reserve allocation of the Emergency Health Fund (EHF), encompasses the health and nutrition efforts in the targeted Woredas. The intervention will address health exigencies by concentrating on the provision of essential primary healthcare services through Mobile Health and Nutrition Teams (MHNTs) while fortifying systems, including maternal and child health initiatives. It will also enhance routine and emergency immunization efforts, bolster surveillance activities, and facilitate the prevention and management of communicable diseases. Additionally, the project will focus on capacity building for government healthcare providers, risk communication, and community engagement, as well as ensuring the operational functionality of health facilities through the provision of medicines, medical supplies, and minor repairs and furnishings of health facilities. The Nutrition component aspires to deliver life-saving nutritional interventions by integrating Community-based Management of Acute Malnutrition (CMAM) and Infant and Young Child Feeding in Emergencies (IYCF-E) activities through the existing health infrastructure. The mainstreaming of protection across the sector will encompass risk mitigation, the provision of Gender-Based Violence (GBV) referral and support services, and the strengthening of essential services, including psychosocial support initiatives.nbspltbrgtThe SMART Survey Plus conducted b/n July 4 and August 8,2024 showed that 32.93% (95% CI:30.9-35.0) of sampled households had an acceptable food consumption score, while 36.6% (95%CI: 29.6-44.2) had a poor score. Additionally, 1% (95%CI:0.4-2.6) of households experienced severe hunger, and 41.4% (95% CI:33.1-50.2) faced moderate hunger.

The Northwestern Zone, particularly Shire city, accommodates the largest concentration of IDPs in the region. Specifically, Shire city and Tahtay Adyabo are home to 308,904 and 30,156 IDPs, respectively, with women accounting for approximately half of this population. Additionally, Adwa town in the Central Zone of Tigray also hosts 39,814 IDPs. The IDPs across the target areas reside in collective centers, informal settlements, and host community settings (PAD, 2025). ltbrgtThe humanitarian situation in these areas is worsening due to conflict, protracted displacement, lack of services, reduced humanitarian attention, weather-related shocks, and persistent economic hardships (PAD, 2025). A significant majority of IDPs live in host communities within unfinished buildings, damaged shelters, and open spaces, further exposing them to diseases, theft, and protection risks. The approaching rainy season is expected to worsen the humanitarian situation across the target areas. Vulnerable groups such as women, girls, children, and people with disabilities are disproportionately affected by these multiple crises (PAD, 2025 Emergency Shelter and Non-Food Items (ES/NFI), April 2025). Critical gaps remain in terms of Camp Coordination and Camp Management (CCCM), with severe shortages in shelter, food, water, sanitation, hygiene (WASH) services, medical care, and other essential infrastructure. These deficiencies significantly heighten the risk of communicable disease outbreaks and other protection concerns across the target areas (PAD, 2025). Currently, only about 30% of IDPs residing in Shire city and the surrounding woredas are receiving assistance, underscoring the urgent need for ES/NFI and CCCM interventions.ltbrgtltbrgtlt/pgtltpgtThe primary objective of the proposed project is to deliver multi-sectoral assistance to the most vulnerable IDPs residing in collective sites and with the host community in Shire city, Tahtay Adyabo Woreda, and Adwa town. For achieving this objective, PAD will partner with sub-national and national clusters, relevant government offices, community representatives, and CSOs operating at the local levels. Addressing the challenges IDPs are facing across the target areas requires sustained support and collaboration among humanitarian actors, government authorities, and the international community. For this purpose, various strategies such as community engagement, capacity building, behavioral change communication, and partnership will be utilized. PAD will utilize supportive supervision for following up on the progress of the project.ltbrgt ltbrgtIn recognition of the above challenges, PAD has designed interventions that focus on ES/NFI interventions in Shire City and Tahtay Adyabo Woreda while CCCM interventions will be implemented in Tahtay Adyabo and Adwa town. Following the needs assessment conducted by PAD and prioritization of the sub-national cluster, a total of 12 sites will be targeted in this project. In this project, PAD will target a total of 36,259 individuals, including 20,723 women. Of these, 19,294 individuals are targeted for ES-NFI assistance, while 16,965 are targeted for CCCM interventions.

Due to conflict and displacement, many vulnerable groups including women, girls, persons with disabilities, and marginalized populations face heightened exposure to protection threats such as physical violence, sexual exploitation, forced displacement, and harmful coping mechanisms that undermine their safety and dignity. The project’s overarching goal is to reduce these protection risks and provide comprehensive, survivor-centered GBV services through coordinated efforts with the General Protection and GBV clusters, local authorities, and humanitarian partners. Protection monitoring will be conducted regularly to identify and document protection risks and violations, enabling timely and evidence based responses. Vulnerability screening will help prioritize assistance to those most at risk,this intervention is designed to alleviate economic pressures that often drive negative coping mechanisms such as early or forced marriage,and exploitation, thereby promoting safer environments for women and girls. Additionally, community protection committees and local leaders will be trained and empowered to identify, refer, and prevent protection violations, fostering local ownership and sustainability of protection efforts.lt/pgtltpgtOn the GBV front, the project focuses on delivering integrated, multi-sectoral care that addresses the immediate and longer-term needs of survivors. GBV case management services will be closely linked with SRH care to ensure survivors receive timely medical treatment, psychosocial support, and protection referrals. MHPSS, including psychological first aid, will be provided to survivors and other affected community members to address trauma and promote healing. The establishment of Women and Girls Friendly Spaces will offer safe and supportive environments where survivors can access psychosocial support, empowerment activities, and receive information on GBV prevention and response. Emergency cash assistance will be available to survivors to cover transportation and other costs necessary to access specialized services, removing financial barriers to care. Furthermore, ltbrgtreusable sanitary pad will be distributed to women and girls of reproductive age, helping to maintain their dignity and health in displacement settings. Capacity building efforts will target One-Stop Centers to strengthen their ability to provide comprehensive, multisectoral GBV services and enhance referral pathways.

Prolonged insecurity has caused large-scale displacement, infrastructure destruction, and loss of livelihoods in Kiremu woreda. The woreda hosts 13,869 IDPs and 48,983 returnees facing severe shortages of food, water, shelter, protection, health, nutrition and livelihood services, with women, children, older persons, and persons with disabilities being particularly at risk. ltbrgtField assessments in October 2025 revealed that most displaced and returning families live in damaged or temporary shelters with limited access to safe water and sanitation, increasing risks of waterborne diseases and malnutrition. Health facilities are largely non-functional, and local authorities lack the capacity to meet growing humanitarian needs. Without urgent intervention, affected populations face worsening living conditions, disease outbreaks, and prolonged displacement. FIDO will lead Health, Shelter/NFI,and WASH interventions Dorcas Aid Ethiopia will lead Agriculture and ECDD will take the Multipurpose Cash (MPC) and  ensure disability inclusion across sectors.ltbrgtIn the WASH sector, the project will improve access to safe water and sanitation for 29,376 people by solarizing an existing motorized deep well, rehabilitating a dug well, constructing WASH facilities at a health center, and conducting hygiene promotion activities. Health and nutrition interventions include mobile health teams providing primary healthcare, MISP, mental health and psychosocial support, immunization services, maternal and child health services, referrals, distribution of nutritional commodities and medical supplies, and malnutrition screening and treatment for children under five and pregnant or lactating women, reaching 20463 individuals.ltbrgtShelter/NFI assistance will deliver emergency shelter and essential household items to 500 vulnerable households, including 75 persons with disabilities. Agricultural assistance will provide improved maize seeds, farm tools, and input cash to 800 returnee households, and restock small ruminants for 100 HHs, mainly women-headed and persons with disabilities. MPC will disburse 28,800 ETB over three rounds to 162 returnee households, including 87 persons with disabilities, in line with Ethiopia’s minimum expenditure basket for the Oromia region. ltbrgtFurthermore, in collaboration with ECDD and DORCAS AID, training will be provided to project staff, community members, government officials, and project committees on PSEAH, AAP, targeting criteria, and Gender-Based Violence. Cross-cutting priorities, including gender equality, protection mainstreaming, conflict sensitivity, environmental safeguards, and accountability to affected populations (AAP), will be integrated into all project activities. Joint monitoring, review meetings, and post-distribution monitoring (PDM) will be conducted. The project will adopt a community-centered and inclusive approach, ensuring the active participation of affected populations in assessment, planning, implementation, and monitoring processes.ltbrgtThe project was designed according to the needs on the ground, in consultation with relevant UN Clusters, ensuring complementarity with other projects funded by CERF/CBPF. Coordination will be maintained with zonal, regional, and national clusters (Agriculture, WASH, Health, Nutrition, Protection, ES/NFI, and CWG) and other humanitarian actors to ensure complementarity and alignment with the Ethiopia Humanitarian Response Plan (HRP).ltbrgtThe project will directly and indirectly benefit approximately 93, 266 individuals, including IDPs, returnees, and vulnerable host community members.

Fear of relapse to war and attendant challenges in providing unfettered humanitarian assistance to the returning IDPs has worsened the dynamism in the region. The context holds true across the four critically affected woredas in Eastern Tigray. Weak health infrastructure, destruction of the water facilities, exposure to protection concerns, widespread malnutrition situation in the woredas still persists. According to the multisectoral assessment report compiled by OCHA in July 2025, most health facilities in those woredas are non-functional and/or partially functional. The collapse of the health services has exacerbated the nutrition situation pervaded by acute malnutrition cases. Severely damaged Wash infrastructure has exposed nearly 85 percent of the population in those woredas to a critically low access to water. 76 percent of the communities are reported to have limited access to latrines while 38 percent are none, worsening disease outbreak risks. Almost all the data from the report indicated that 100 percent of the respondents in the IDPs and host communities feel unsafe, with heightened risk of GBV, violence and concerns at 21 percent of the total respondents in the woredas. Overall, massive humanitarian crisis with limited humanitarian presence in the woredas with Zalambasa’s case being the catastrophic one while Erob, Gulomekeda and Adigrat standing at the extreme level of crisis is identified by the report. These multipronged challenges with wider gaps in all types’ humanitarian services provide the basis for integrated multisectoral intervention.ltbrgtThe scope of intervention of the project involves addressing the multipronged challenges through multisectoral interventions to the general protection, health, nutrition and wash needs of the affected population by responding to the critical humanitarian gaps in the woredas. It will basically focus on addressing ltbrgt General protection focusing on, protection monitoring, Cash interventions to minimize exposure to protection risks and negative coping mechanisms as well as vulnerability screening engagementsltbrgt Nutrition focused on establishing and deploying mobile health and nutrition team (MHNT), conduct mass screening for acute malnutrition cases, capacity building by training HWs on IMAM ltbrgt Health focused on provision of capacity building trainings to the HWs and Village health Leaders (VHL), conduct health education sessions, support prevention of outbreak of diseases  ltbrgt WASH focused rehabilitation of waterpoints, repair and maintenance of water schemes, conduct assessment of sanitation facilities in schools and health care facilitiesltbrgtThese activities will be implemented using time-bound implementation strategy that will be conducted over 9 months in three important component phases. Phase one entails a one-month implementation of activities focused on inception and rapid assessment. Phase 2 involves 2-7 months activities focused on rolling out the full spectrum of the activities towards intensive service delivery.

The project aims to deliver a dignified and inclusive humanitarian response through coordinated interventions in Protection (including GBV), WASH, Emergency Shelter and Non-Food Items (ES/NFI), and Multi-Purpose Cash Assistance (MPC). With a total budget of USD 720000, the project will reach 8,626 IDPs, prioritizing women, girls, and persons with disabilities who face heightened risks of violence, exclusion, and neglect.ltbrgtThe humanitarian situation in the Jara IDP site remains critical, with displaced households struggling due to limited access to safe water, sanitation facilities, protection services, and adequate shelter. Overcrowding, inadequate lighting, and poor hygiene conditions continue to increase the risk of communicable diseases and worsen exposure to gender-based violence.ltbrgtThe ES/NFI needs in Jara are extremely high and far exceed current response capacity. Communal shelter infrastructure is deteriorating rapidly, leaving thousands exposed to the elements. Of the originally installed six-unit communal hangars, half are out of use due to structural collapse and disrepair. The remaining units, though still standing, have sustained significant damage to roofing, frames, and flooring, reducing their safety and functionality. Many families are forced to live in overcrowded, unsafe sections or makeshift extensions made from torn plastic sheets. This situation has intensified protection risks, contributed to rising health concerns, and left the most vulnerable—especially women-headed households, older persons, and persons with disabilities—without dignified living conditions. The gap in shelter rehabilitation and household items is therefore severe and requires urgent intervention.ltbrgtUnder the Protection/GBV component, UEWCA will provide survivor-centered GBV response services including case management, mental health and psychosocial support (MHPSS), and distribution of dignity kits. Awareness sessions will engage men, women, and youth to challenge harmful norms, reduce GBV risks, and strengthen community-based protection systems. UEWCA will also reinforce safe and confidential referral pathways to ensure timely access to health, psychosocial, and legal services for survivors.ltbrgtThe WASH component will rehabilitate and solarize non-functional water schemes to restore sustainable access to safe water. The intervention includes hygiene promotion, distribution of hygiene kits and water treatment chemicals, and construction of gender-sensitive and disability-inclusive latrines and bathing facilities to improve privacy, dignity, and safety.ltbrgtThe ES/NFI and Shelter component will address the critical shelter gap by providing emergency shelter repair kits, essential household items such as blankets, sleeping mats, kitchen sets, and solar lamps, and offering technical support to highly vulnerable households. Priority will be given to women-headed families, persons with disabilities, and older persons to ensure equitable access.ltbrgtMulti-Purpose Cash Assistance (MPC) will enhance flexibility and dignity for IDPs, enabling households to meet urgent needs such as food, health services, and household supplies. Cash support will reduce negative coping mechanisms and stimulate local markets, contributing to early recovery and self-reliance.ltbrgtCross-cutting issues, including gender equality, disability inclusion, accountability to affected populations (AAP), environmental considerations, and localization—will be integrated throughout project implementation.

Implemented by Pastoralist Concern (PC), a national non-governmental organization with deep-rooted experience in the region, this project is proposed for funding under the UNOCHA Ethiopia Humanitarian Fund (EHF) 3rd Reserve Allocation, with a revised total budget of $500,000. The project presents an integrated, multi-sectoral approach, combining Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene (WASH), Health, Nutrition, Protection, Emergency Shelter and Non-Food Items (ESNFI), and Multipurpose Cash Assistance (MPCA) to deliver a holistic and impactful response.ltbrgtThe target woreda is currently an epicenter of a complex humanitarian crisis, driven by a confluence of recurrent and severe drought, flash floods, and persistent inter-communal conflict over scarce resources. These shocks have triggered significant internal displacement, dismantled traditional pastoralist livelihoods, and severely degraded the coping capacities of both the displaced and their host communities. The result is a dire situation where an estimated [Insert specific number, to be revised based on Moyale-specific data] individuals, predominantly women and children, are facing extreme vulnerability. They lack access to the most basic life-sustaining services, including safe drinking water, essential healthcare, adequate nutrition, basic shelter, and a secure living environment.ltbrgtIn response, this 9-month project will target approximately [Insert specific number, revised downwards based on $500k budget and single woreda scope] of the most vulnerable individuals, including [x] Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) and [y] members of the over-stretched host communities. The core objective is to save lives, alleviate suffering, and uphold human dignity. This will be achieved through a strategically integrated package of interventions. The WASH component will focus on rehabilitating critical water infrastructure and promoting life-saving hygiene practices. The Health component will deploy mobile health and nutrition teams to deliver primary healthcare directly to inaccessible communities. The Nutrition intervention will tackle acute malnutrition through systematic screening and treatment programs. The new ESNFI component will provide critical emergency shelter materials and core relief items to newly displaced families lacking basic protection from the elements. Crucially, a robust Protection component will be mainstreamed across all sectors and will also deliver targeted services...

In Liben Zone alone, over 40,000 IDPs reside in informal settlements, with Kersadula and DekaSuftu woredas hosting some of the highest concentrations. Most HHs have minimal access to basic services. Joint assessments conducted by PAPDA, in collaboration with local authorities and humanitarian actors, covered all IDP HHs, averaging 7–8 members each. Findings confirmed Nutrition/Food (100%), Health (93%), and WASH (86%) as the most urgent needs. Families have exhausted all coping mechanisms, lacking income, assets, or savings, and are entirely dependent on humanitarian assistance for survival. Health services are critically overstretched: facilities are often 1–2 hrs away by foot, with limited medicines, insufficient skilled staff, inadequate reproductive health services, and weak outbreak surveillance. WASH conditions are dire: women and girls travel long distances under unsafe conditions to collect water, 74–100% of HHs consume untreated water, and sanitation infrastructure is almost nonexistent. Protection risks remain extremely high, as the absence of safe spaces, reporting mechanisms, and community-based structures exposes women, girls, elderly persons, and persons with disabilities to GBV, exploitation, child marriage, and harmful traditional practices. Since 2006, PAPDA has maintained a strong operational presence in Liben Zone, with coordination offices in Filtu and field bases in Kersadula and DekaSuftu. The organization currently implements complementary programs, including a GAVI-supported U5 vaccination initiative and a peacebuilding project with Brot PADD, demonstrating capacity for rapid response, coordination, and sustained community engagement. This proposed intervention aligns with the EHF 3rd Reserve Allocation Priority 1 and the 2025 Humanitarian Response Plan, targeting 53,863 direct and 150,000 indirect beneficiaries through an integrated multi-sector response across Health, Nutrition, WASH, Protection/GBV, ESNFI, and MPCA with project budget of 1M USD. Health interventions will deploy 2 MHNTs per woreda, providing primary healthcare, MISP, immunizations, emergency referrals, and capacity-building for health workers. Nutrition services will strengthen CMAM, including SAM/MAM treatment, MUAC screening by 1,000 trained caregivers, IYCF counselling, and community cooking demonstrations for 1,600 mothers and caregivers. WASH activities include solar rehabilitation of water systems, construction of communal latrines, hygiene promotion, and distribution of water treatment chemicals, HH NFIs, and menstrual MHM kits. MPCA will reach 500 vulnerable HHs, using market assessments and verified targeting to ensure dignity, choice, and financial protection. Protection and GBV components will screen 4,000 individuals for vulnerability, conduct 5 protection monitoring, and provide GBV case management and PSS. Two women and girls’ safe spaces or mobile points will offer referrals, awareness sessions, and cluster-standard dignity kits to 500 beneficiaries. Six inclusive community protection committees and 2,000 IEC materials will promote protective norms and strengthen community-led approaches. Standard ESNFI kits will be distributed to 1,180 affected IDP HHs.

Due to its high vulnerability to climate shocks, ethnic violence, and systemic service disruptions, the Woreda has been prioritized as highlighted in recent assessments (PAD Needs Assessment, Oct 2025 MIRA Report, June 2025).ltbrgtThe Woreda has a population of approximately 134,154. The humanitarian situation is critical, characterized by an 8% prevalence of Global Acute Malnutrition (GAM) and a significantly weakened health system, with many facilities currently non-operational. Agricultural livelihoods are under threat from insecurity and disease outbreaks, and 63% of water schemes are out of service.ltbrgtIn response to these challenges, PAD, in collaboration with Nexus Ethiopia and local community-based organizations (CBOs), has developed an integrated project targeting five critical sectors: Agriculture, Health and Nutrition, WASH, Shelter/NFI, and Multi-Purpose Cash Assistance (MPCA). This initiative will incorporate protection measures and aims to enhance access to emergency agricultural inputs, restore essential health services, rehabilitate WASH infrastructure, providenbspshelter repair kits, and deliver MPCA to returnees in consultation with CBOs and government stakeholders.ltbrgtA key aspect of this project is its commitment to local leadership and inclusion. Women-led organizations will co-implement the initiative to ensure that women's perspectives are prioritized. The project will actively engage two local CBOs representing PWDs and a Saving and Support association (Iddir), fostering an inclusive approach that empowers marginalized groups.nbsp ltbrgtDesigned to complement ongoing efforts, particularly the EHF projects in adjacent Woredas within the East Wollega Zone, specifically in Gida Ayana. This proposed initiative will leverage existing staff and operational capacities to enhance cost-effectiveness, maintaining operational costs below 10%. This operational presence will facilitate swift project initiation, ensuring both cost and time efficiency.ltbrgtThe project will allocate 17% of its budget to support people with disabilities and the elderly, while a portion will be dedicated to last-mile humanitarian assistance through CBO partners. Additionally, 25% of the project budget is allocated to women-led local implementing partners with an active operational presence in the area. The project will prioritize cash modalities, providing standalone cash support in the form of Multi-Purpose Cash Assistance. Furthermore, cash-based interventions will be integrated across sectors, specifically in Agriculture for procuring improved seeds and Cash for Labor in the ESNFI sector, aligning with the priorities outlined in the allocation paper and cluster recommendations.ltbrgtThis integrated, time-bound humanitarian assistance project for returnees in Sasiga Woreda will span nine months, from November 1, 2025, to July 31, 2026.nbspThe project aims to reach a total of 32,515nbspindividuals (including 17,545nbspfemales), of these 1,902nbsp(F=974)nbsp are persons with disabilities and elders, with a total budget of USD 700,000. The target appears high due to overlapping support across different sectors. It aligns with the strategic objectives of the 2025 HRP, specifically SO1, SO2, SO4, and SO5, as well as the cluster priorities for Agriculture, Health, WASH, MPC, and ESNFI.nbspltbrgtBy addressing immediate needs while laying the groundwork for early recovery, this project aspires to stabilize affected communities and contribute to long-term development. In conclusion, this integrated project proposal for Sasiga Woreda represents a vital intervention in a region beset by humanitarian crises, emphasizing local leadership, inclusivity, and strategic collaboration that foster resilience and recovery for the future.ltbrgtlt/pgtPositive Action for DevelopmentPositive Action for DevelopmentNexus EthiopiaEthiopia Humanitarian FundEmergency Shelter and NFIFood SecurityHealthWater, Sanitation and HygieneMulti-purpose CASH76923.08623076.92700000.00Ethiopia Humanitarian FundPositive Action for Development140000.00Ethiopia Humanitarian FundPositive Action for Development560000.00Ethiopia Humanitarian FundPositive Action for DevelopmentXM-OCHA-CBPF-CBPF-ETH-25-R-NGO-37928United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian AffairsltpgtThe Ethiopian Evangelical Church Mekane Yesus - Development and Social Services Commission (EECMY-DASSC), Swiss Church Aid (HEKS/EPER), and Gurmuu Development Association (GDA) are proposing an ltbgtintegrated multi-sector lifesaving interventionlt/bgt to support conflict-affected voluntary returnees and host communities in Amuru woreda of Horro Guduru Wollega, Oromia Region.

These are areas marked by high food insecurity, limited WASH access, poor nutrition indicators, protection risks, and underfunded humanitarian interventions. Informed by a May 2025 joint multi-sectoral needs assessment conducted by Mercy Corps and ANE, and validated through community consultations and sectoral data, the project aims to provide lifesaving, protection-sensitive, and inclusive assistance to 49,558 individuals across five sectors: Nutrition, Health, WASH, Agriculture and Protection (GBV-focused).  ltbrgtUnder Health and Nutrition, the project will deploy mobile outreach teams to provide Integrated Management of Acute Malnutrition (IMAM) services for children under-five and pregnant and lactating women (PLW), including nutrition screening, referrals, and micronutrient supplementation. Community health workers will conduct home visits, complemented by visual materials for awareness raising. Nutrition-sensitive messaging will be integrated with other sectoral activities, particularly agriculture and WASH.  ltbrgtThe WASH activities will address critical gaps in safe water access and hygiene promotion. Activities include the rehabilitation of 7 water schemes, distribution of hygiene kits (with menstrual health supplies), and community-led hygiene behavior change campaigns, all tailored to the target communities and women, girls, and persons with disabilities. WASH committees will be formed or revitalized and trained to manage infrastructure sustainably. ltbrgtIn Agriculture, the intervention will safeguard agro-pastoral livelihoods by distributing poultry starter kits, including vaccinated chicks and basic equipment, to 7,924 vulnerable individuals, including women and adolescent girls, paired with vouchers redeemable from local vendors to stimulate local market activity. The project promotes gender-responsive livelihoods by linking poultry production to income generation and nutrition outcomes, reinforced by technical training and follow-up.  ltbrgtThe Protection component prioritizes GBV prevention, mitigation, and response. It will establish one Women and Girls Safe Space offering psychosocial support and empowerment activities for 580 women and girls. GBV case management will be delivered to 40 survivors by trained case workers, linked to medical, legal, and psychosocial services. Community dialogues with men, youth, and leaders will address harmful gender norms, while referral pathways will be strengthened in collaboration with Women’s and Children’s Affairs Bureau, OSCs, and the Protection Cluster. Survivors will receive cash for protection, while all community members will benefit from confidential PSEA channels, monitored through Mercy Corps’ Responsible Data Policy.  ltbrgtTo ensure effective and safe implementation, the consortium will leverage existing field teams, surge rosters, and prepositioned supplies. A regional MEL and CARM specialists will manage MEL activities and track SMART indicators disaggregated by sex, age, and disability. Data will be collected bi-monthly, feeding into adaptive management and regular reporting to clusters and OCHA.  ltbrgtThe project ensures accountability to affected populations through Community Accountability Reporting Mechanisms, inclusive planning processes, and regular feedback mechanisms tailored to marginalized groups. Gender equality and disability inclusion are mainstreamed, with targeted investments in GBV response, protection, and livelihood support for women and girls.  ltbrgtThis 12-month intervention aligns with the 2025 HRP, contributing to HRP Strategic Objectives.

Focused interventions will target areas where ongoing conflicts have resulted in widespread school closures. In North Shewa zone, Eferatana woreda, while a higher percentage of schools are open, 43% still remain closed, depriving 9,410 children of education for the past two years.ltbrgtThe project is strategically designed to restore access to safe, inclusive, and adaptable learning opportunities while fortifying local systems and engaging communities to sustain education in emergencies. Central to its mission is fostering the psychosocial resilience and well-being of children in the crisis-affected areas. In response to the non-operational status of schools in the areas, the project will pioneer a novel approach by bringing learning directly to children's homes through a blended education model. This innovative method involves establishing cluster learning centers or groups in close proximity to children's residences, within 200-500 meters, and delivering home-based instruction through a variety of activities conducted in these centers and at children homes. Rather than constructing new facilities, the intervention will utilize existing community spaces—such as churches, mosques, community halls, and safe communal areas—thereby reducing cost, enhancing community ownership, and enabling rapid implementation. ltbrgtThe established learning centers will be utilized to deliver inclusive, non-formal education to out-of-school children aged 7–14. For ages 7–9, sessions will focus on foundational literacy and numeracy, integrated with psychosocial support to build both academic and emotional resilience. Using a slightly contextualized version of our PlayMatters home-based learning package, these younger learners will be engaged through structured, child-friendly content. For older children aged 10–14, the project will implement the Accelerated Education Program (AEP), in line with Ethiopian education policy, which mandates AEP for children out of school for over two years at this age. Targeting this age group (7-14) is a strategic and high-impact investment, as they are developmentally ready for rapid learning and reintegration into formal education systems. To strengthen learning outcomes and ensure continuity, the AEP will be complemented by Radio Education Program interventions. These broadcasts will extend academic support beyond the classroom, reinforcing key competencies and reaching children in remote or underserved areas. ltbrgtThis project is 100% focused on education, targeting out-of-school children through the provision of quality, inclusive, and accelerated learning opportunities. While the core of the intervention is firmly rooted in education, the project will systematically integrate cross-cutting child protection components—particularly Mental Health and Psychosocial Support (MHPSS) and Social Emotional Learning (SEL) as essential enablers of safe and effective learning. These elements will be embedded within teacher training, classroom instruction, and the overall learning environment to ensure that children not only access education but are also supported to heal, thrive, and remain engaged. ltbrgtlt/pgtPlan InternationalPlan InternationalCOCEthiopia Humanitarian FundEducation201923.08298076.92500000.00Ethiopia Humanitarian FundPlan International500000.00Ethiopia Humanitarian FundPlan InternationalXM-OCHA-CBPF-CBPF-ETH-25-S-INGO-35988United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian AffairsltpgtThe proposed action will be implemented in targeted woredas of Beninshangul Gumuz Region (BGRS) (Bulen woreda of Metekel zone and Mao Komo Special woreda) with the aim of enhancing protection, resilience, and dignity for GBV survivors while strengthening local systems for long-term impact through provision of technical support for local organizations and government sectors.nbspThe action will ensure age- and gender-responsive approaches by employing participatory assessments to customize interventions to the various needs of women, girls, and other vulnerable populations.

The intervention is based on a pre-project needs assessment (annexed) conducted in ltbrgtGuto Gida Woreda in June 2025. The proposed intervention, which is designed with input from communities, sector offices, and other humanitarian actors, will directly benefit 34,990 conflict-affected persons (17,495 F, 17,495 M). A strong focus will be on returnees (22,078 persons) and host community members (12,912 persons). A total of 4,289 persons with disability (11%) will benefit. ltbrgtViolent conflict led to severe human, asset and infrastructural damage, leaving the population in Guto Gida Woreda isolated, underserved and extremely vulnerable. In this scenario of high humanitarian needs, the two Project Partners, who have direct presence of staff and logistics, have consulted communities and local authorities to identify the prioritized sectors for intervention. As a result, Agriculture and Health were identified as high priority sectors. The project was designed strictly following the Ethiopia Priority Humanitarian Response and Critical Gaps document for February-April 2025 and Cross Cutting Directive.ltbrgtThe integrated Agriculture and Health response in Guto Gida Woreda aligns with respective Cluster Objectives and HRP 2025 priorities. Beneficiary selection will be fair, transparent and inclusive, and feedback and compliant mechanisms will be established. The agriculture component will support 18,505 people, including returnees, through seed distribution, poultry restocking, and sustainable farming training to restore livelihoods and improve food security. Emergency livestock support includes vouchers for treatment, veterinary drugs for four facilities, and three vaccination campaigns to protect productive assets. Health activities, benefitting 25,232 people, led by Mobile Health and Nutrition Teams (MHNTs), will provide essential services including outpatient care, immunization, and malnutrition screening, alongside health messaging and hygiene promotion. Disease surveillance will be strengthened via training, community-based early warning, and immunization campaigns, while damaged health facilities will be rehabilitated to restore local health systems.ltbrgtA Risk Management Plan has been developed for this project (annexed). The project was designed in coordination with relevant UN Clusters which provided their inputs and feedback. The local government is fully supportive of the proposed project (recognition certificate annexed). Due attention was given to complementarity with other ongoing interventions, including other projects funded by CERF/CBPF.ltbrgtlt/pgtSwiss Church Aid/HEKS-EPER EthiopiaSwiss Church Aid/HEKS-EPER EthiopiaFayyaa Integrated Development OrganizationEthiopia Humanitarian FundFood SecurityHealth208791.21291208.79500000.00Ethiopia Humanitarian FundSwiss Church Aid/HEKS-EPER Ethiopia200000.00Ethiopia Humanitarian FundSwiss Church Aid/HEKS-EPER Ethiopia150000.00Ethiopia Humanitarian FundSwiss Church Aid/HEKS-EPER Ethiopia150000.00Ethiopia Humanitarian FundSwiss Church Aid/HEKS-EPER EthiopiaXM-OCHA-CBPF-CBPF-ETH-25-S-NGO-35830United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian AffairsltpgtEthiopia continues to face persistent humanitarian challenges driven by conflict, displacement, climate-induced shocks, and socio-economic vulnerabilities. Amhara region is one of the most emergency-affected regions of Ethiopia. Internal conflict, displacement, climatic shocks, and service disruptions are the key drivers of the region's compounded humanitarian crises. A recent MIRA assessment led by ASDEPO (May 2025) in Bugna, Habru, Lasta and Raya Kobo Woredas revealed that there is a significant, reduction in maternal and child health services and increase in rates of malnutrition due to limited access to food and proper nutrition, burden of infectious and non-infectious illness, inadequate access to clean water and sanitation (WASH), fragile agricultural livelihoods, and an increase in gender-based violence.lt/pgtltpgtThe report further highlighted the presence of poor health services including partial or full destruction of the health facilities and infrastructures, severe shortage of key/life-saving medical supplies, lack of capacities to provide number of critical medical services and significant health hazards due to poor IPC management and limited access to clean water and sanitation facilities Habru woredas. The nutrition assessment finding indicated that Habru woreda had 12,367 children screened for malnutrition of which 2,789 were identified with MAM cases and 925 SAM cases. Out of the 2,189 PLW screened, 680 were identified MAM and 8 SAM cases. The agricultural activities and livestock output are severely impacted and resulted in a catastrophic impact on food security, crop yields, cattle breeding, as well as adverse market conditions. Assessment findings in BG and Afar region (ASDEPO, May 2025) indicated that the most commonly reported types of GBV cases are rape, physical and emotional violence, psychological abuse, sexual exploitation, early marriage, and denial of resources or opportunities including severe consequences of fistula and uterine vaginal prolapse (UVP). Despite the prevalence of GBV cases, there are limited access to protection services in the targeted woredas including case management, MHPSS and referral l services provided for victims and survivors of SGBV. In response, the project aims to meet the humanitarian needs of vulnerable communities through multisectoral intervention in nutrition, WASH, agriculture, health and protection. To carry out the project, ASDEPO will collaborate with best fitting NNGOs and INGOs. In this regard, ASDEPO will directly manage health and nutrition components as well as protection, while ZOA Ethiopia will oversee WASH and agriculture sectors in Habru woredas. Furthermore, for the protection sector, ASDEPO will be responsible for the Kamashi and Zaye, woredas of BGR, while the Ethiopian Women with Disabilities National Association (EWDNA) will oversee the Miziga woreda and the Development Expertise Center (DEC) will manage the Afdera and Bidu woredas of Zone 2 in the Afar region. Besides, ASDEPO will participate and channel funding to 3 CBOs in the project namely, STEM plus Community Development Charitable Association in the Amhara region, Benishangul Gumuz Youth Association in the BGR and ADO Integrated Development Association in the Afar region. Cross-cutting issues like gender, disability, age PSEA and accountability will be considered during the intervention. ltspangtThe proposed activity will lt/spangtltspangtdirectlylt/spangtltspangt benefit an estimated 122,412 beneficiaries (60% female, 40% male and 47% children beneficiaries) in the target areas. lt/spangtltspangtThe total project cost of the project is estimated to be 2,357,316.40$. lt/spangtlt/pgtAction for Social Development and Environmental Protection OrganizationAction for Social Development and Environmental Protection OrganizationZOA EthiopiaDevelopment Expertise CenterEthiopian Women Disability National AssociationEthiopia Humanitarian FundFood SecurityHealthNutritionProtectionWater, Sanitation and Hygiene964945.451392370.952357316.40Ethiopia Humanitarian FundAction for Social Development and Environmental Protection Organization1885853.12Ethiopia Humanitarian FundAction for Social Development and Environmental Protection Organization471463.28Ethiopia Humanitarian FundAction for Social Development and Environmental Protection OrganizationXM-OCHA-CBPF-CBPF-ETH-25-S-NGO-35863United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian AffairsltpgtDevelopment through Adult and Non-Formal Education (DANFE), a women-led national NGO with over two decades of experience in Ethiopia, proposes a 12-month emergency education intervention targeting 5,600 out-of-school children—including 560 children with disabilities—and 160 teachers and Facilitators in the conflict-affected woredas of Raya Kobo and Guba Lafto, North Wollo Zone. The project aims to restore access to inclusive, quality education services disrupted by recent and ongoing conflict affected children, addressing both the immediate learning needs and the long-term recovery of vulnerable children. The intervention aligns with Ethiopia’s Education Cluster priorities and the Humanitarian Response Plan, with a strong emphasis on gender equity and disability inclusion. The project is structured around four integrated components. First, it will deliver Accelerated and Catch-Up Education through the proven Speed School model, enabling out-of-school children to complete four years of primary education within a single academic year. this will be implements in 14 newly established and rehabilitate Temporary Learning Centers (TLCs) located within ten existing school compounds, averaging 10 class room per site. Second, the project will provide essential teaching and learning materials to both students and teachers, including school kits with notebooks, pens, and pencils. Third, 140 teachers and 20 Supervisors will receive comprehensive training on content delivery, trauma-informed pedagogy, Mental Health and Psychosocial Support (MHPSS), Social Emotional Learning (SEL), and inclusive education approaches. Finally, children with disabilities will receive tailored support, including assistive devices, individualized learning plans, and access to inclusive classrooms. To ensure a safe, protective, and inclusive learning environment, each TLC 52% will be constructed from locally available materials and the rest  42% will rehabilitate with minor maintenance to functionalized the current class room. These facilities will include gender-sensitive WASH components, such as separate latrines for boys and girls, handwashing stations, and menstrual hygiene management (MHM) materials. A community-based approach will be applied throughout implementation, engaging Parent-Teacher Associations (PTAs), local education offices, education clusters and community leaders in planning, mobilization, and oversight. The project will utilize routine monitoring tools, including school visits, teacher feedback sessions, and community meetings, to track progress and make adaptive adjustments. By the end of the project, DANFE will have re-established access to quality education for thousands of displaced and vulnerable children, strengthened teacher capacity to respond to crisis-related learning and psychosocial needs, and improved community resilience through inclusive and sustainable learning spaces. Certification of learning outcomes and coordination with education authorities will support smooth transitions into formal education pathways. The holistic design ensures the intervention not only addresses immediate educational disruptions but also lays the foundation for long-term recovery and development in the conflict-affected communities of North Wollo.ltbrgtlt/pgtDevelopment Through Adult and Non-Formal EducationDevelopment Through Adult and Non-Formal EducationEthiopia Humanitarian FundEducation292307.69407692.31700000.00Ethiopia Humanitarian FundDevelopment Through Adult and Non-Formal Education210000.00Ethiopia Humanitarian FundDevelopment Through Adult and Non-Formal Education280000.00Ethiopia Humanitarian FundDevelopment Through Adult and Non-Formal Education210000.00Ethiopia Humanitarian FundDevelopment Through Adult and Non-Formal EducationXM-OCHA-CBPF-CBPF-ETH-25-S-NGO-35871United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian AffairsltpgtThe proposed STAR project (Supporting Transformative Action and Resilience) women-led initiative by ELiDA  and sup-IP (UEWCA), is designed to address critical GBV (prevention and response) needs for 41,641 women, girls and other vulnerable communities aiming to reduce the prevalence of Gender-Based Violence (GBV) and enhance the safety, well-being, and resilience of women and girls in the conflict-affected North Wollo Zone of Amhara Region, specifically within Raya Kobo, Habru, Lasta, and Bugna Woredas. As a leading women-led organization with deep operational presence in the proposed Woredas, we are uniquely positioned to implement this vital program with our implementation methodology is inherently on human right based approach centering women's, girls and disability, feminist and participatory, a community-centered approach, recognizing local community structure as vital pillars of protection and change. lt/pgtltpgtPrevention efforts begin with a rapid protection risk analysis, tailored to the specific vulnerabilities in the four Woredas, ensuring contextual relevance.

The woreda has a total population of 158,000 and hosts one of the largest numbers of returnees and internally displaced persons (IDPs). Recent assessments indicate that there are approximately 14,598 returnees and 21,725 IDPs in the woreda, of which 11,378 are female (Positive Action for Development [PAD], 2025).ltbrgtThe ongoing conflict has severely impacted livelihoods, with many returnees losing their farmland, livestock, and other sources of income, contributing to alarming levels of malnutrition. A recent screening of children under five revealed a Global Acute Malnutrition (GAM) rate of 34%, with a Severe Acute Malnutrition (SAM) rate estimated at 17%, both of which exceed the emergency threshold (PAD, 2025 Woreda Health Office, 2025). Although therapeutic feeding programs are partially operational, they frequently face stockouts of essential supplies, such as F-75 and F-100. The assessment report also highlighted that Maternal, Infant, and Young Child Nutrition (MIYCN) services are non-functional, exacerbated by a critical shortage of trained staff and outreach capacity. Additionally, road blockages caused by ongoing conflict continue to restrict movement and access to essential services within the woreda.ltbrgtCommunities face significant challenges in accessing clean water, sanitation services, and health care. Currently, 70% of health facilities are partially damaged, while 22% are completely non-functional (Woreda Health Office, 2025). Furthermore, 15 Water, Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH) facilities are not operational in the target woreda (PAD, 2025).ltbrgtIn response to these challenges, PAD and the Action for Social Development and Environmental Protection Organization (ASDEPO) have designed a project aimed at improving the nutritional status of affected communities through cross-sectoral interventions in Nutrition, Agriculture, WASH, and Health. The proposed interventions align with the 2025 Humanitarian Response Plan (HRP) and directly contribute to cluster objectives. The project will support Strategic Objective One (SO1) by addressing the needs of people affected by conflict and violence, and Strategic Objective Two (SO2) by ensuring agile support for basic service provision in hard-to-reach areas. Additionally, it will contribute to Strategic Objective Three (SO3) by providing critical assistance to communities displaced in 2024 and earlier, who are still recovering from the ongoing conflict in the target area. This initiative is closely aligned with the priority areas outlined in the Emergency Health Fund (EHF) 2025 First Standard Allocation Paper and reflects the priorities of both the Regional Government and the targeted woreda.ltbrgtThe project will be implemented from August 1, 2025, to July 31, 2026, in Gida Ayana Woreda of East Wollega Zone, with a total budget of $1,000,000. The implementation will be carried out by PAD and ASDEPO in collaboration with local stakeholders. A total of 62,781 individuals will be targeted in this project, of whom 58% (36,392 individuals) are female. Among the total beneficiaries, 4,278 individuals will be people with disabilities, with females accounting for 2,828.

These organizations will combine their respective expertise and proven capacities to address the high protection risks and the prevalence of Sexual and Gender-Based Violence (SGBV) in the conflict-affected districts of Debremarkos, Michakel, and Mertolemariam in the Amhara Region.ltbrgtPreliminary data obtained from local government structures in these target areas indicates that SGBV survivors face significant challenges in accessing appropriate and survivor-centered services due to fragmented response infrastructures. Access to justice and tailored support remains severely constrained. To validate and deepen this understanding, the project will conduct a comprehensive protection risk and SGBV analysis during the inception phase.ltbrgtThe proposed intervention aims to improve SGBV prevention and response mechanisms and provide timely, dignified, and survivor-centered support to SGBV survivors in the three targeted districts. The project will directly reach 29,106 individuals—including women, girls, men, and boys—with 10% (2911) identified as persons with disabilities and other doubly vulnerable groups. Services will include mental health and psychosocial support (MHPSS), case management, distribution of dignity kits, and emergency cash assistance.ltbrgtThe project’s four interlinked outputs include:ltbrgt(1) Ensuring timely and appropriate support to GBV survivors and at-risk women and girls through case management, psychosocial support, emergency assistance, and provision of age- and context-appropriate dignity kits.ltbrgt(2) Strengthening referral pathways and coordination among SGBV service providers to deliver holistic, survivor-centered services.ltbrgt(3) Enhancing GBV prevention and response through improved service delivery and increased community awareness, including engaging men and boys.ltbrgt(4) Reducing institutional protection risks and strengthening the capacity of actors involved in SGBV response.ltbrgtBoth WE-Action and ESD have demonstrated experience in humanitarian response and long-standing presence in the region. They have successfully implemented projects in conflict-sensitive contexts, including the EHF 2024 First Standard Allocation in East and West Gojam zones. Their operational approach incorporates conflict-sensitive strategies that ensure the safety of staff and access to hard-to-reach areas.ltbrgtThe two organizations are Core Humanitarian Standard (CHS) Alliance members and actively participate in the Protection Cluster, adhering to the nine commitments for quality and accountability in humanitarian programming. Their technical expertise, community trust, and established partnerships with local actors position them well to coordinate and deliver impactful protection and SGBV services.ltbrgtA comprehensive risk mitigation strategy is in place, with a risk register regularly updated to reflect evolving challenges around security, financial management, and protection. The project applies an intersectional approach that considers the diverse identities and needs of affected populations. By targeting individuals based on vulnerability and promoting inclusivity, the project will benefit both direct and indirect beneficiaries within the broader community.ltbrgtSGBV is not only a gross violation of human rights but also a significant economic and social burden that undermines national development and the well-being of society. This justifies the request for a total budget of USD 450,000 to support this initiative under the 2025 EHF First Standard Allocation for the Amhara region and contribute to the national agenda of reducing SGBV and strengthening protection systems.ltbrgtlt/pgtWomen Empowerment-ActionWomen Empowerment-ActionEducation for Sustainable DevelopmentEthiopia Humanitarian FundProtection184203.30265796.70450000.00Ethiopia Humanitarian FundWomen Empowerment-Action180000.00Ethiopia Humanitarian FundWomen Empowerment-Action135000.00Ethiopia Humanitarian FundWomen Empowerment-Action135000.00Ethiopia Humanitarian FundWomen Empowerment-ActionXM-OCHA-CBPF-CBPF-ETH-25-S-NGO-36003United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian AffairsltpgtThe project titled “Integrated Response to Gender-Based Violence in Conflict-Affected Woredas of North Gojjam and South Gondar Zones of, Amhara Region” is designed to respond to the urgent and widespread protection needs of women and girls caused by ongoing conflict and displacement. A needs assessment conducted in May 2025 revealed extremely high rates of gender-based violence (GBV), including rape, intimate partner violence, and sexual exploitation. These incidents have been exacerbated by the breakdown of local protection systems and the near-total absence of GBV case management services, trained personnel, Women and Girls Safe Spaces (WGSS), and one-stop centers. There is also a critical shortage of emergency cash assistance, dignity kits, and community awareness on GBV, child protection, and Protection from Sexual Exploitation and Abuse (PSEA), resulting in stigma, fear, and underreporting.ltbrgtThe overarching goal of the project is to reduce GBV risks and improve access to comprehensive, survivor-centered response services for conflict-affected women and girls. The project specifically aims to restore GBV case management and referral pathways, expand access to Mental Health and Psychosocial Support (MHPSS), provide life-saving multi-purpose cash assistance, and raise community awareness to shift social norms that tolerate or normalize GBV. To achieve this, the project will implement a set of integrated and context-specific strategies. These include training caseworkers and community health professionals in survivor-centered approaches and trauma-informed care delivering Psychological First Aid (PFA) constructing and equipping four Women and Girls Safe Spaces and strengthening the GBV response capacity of health centers and Women and Social Affairs offices. Additionally, the project will distribute dignity kits to address the hygiene and protection needs of women and girls and will offer emergency cash assistance to 1,000 GBV survivors to help remove economic barriers to accessing safety and essential services.ltbrgtCommunity engagement is a central component of the project. Through community-led dialogues and targeted sensitization campaigns, the project will raise awareness about GBV and available services, promote reporting, and challenge harmful gender norms. The project is scheduled to run for 12 months, from July 15, 2025, to July 14, 2026, in six conflict-affected woredas: Semen Achefer, Debub Mecha, Mecha, Gonje, Ebnat, and Menametewa. It targets internally displaced persons (IDPs), returnees, and host communities, with a strong focus on the inclusion of older women and persons with disabilities, who often face heightened vulnerability in humanitarian settings.ltbrgtBased on the needs assessment, the project aims to reach a total of 39,847 people, disaggregated as follows: 21,916 women (aged 18 and above), 9,961 girls (under 18), 5,180 men (aged 18 and above), and 2,790 boys (under 18).

This initiative is designed to address the severe educational disruption faced by communities struggling with the dual crises of armed conflict and recurrent drought. Both Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) and host communities will benefit from targeted educational interventions.ltbrgtAn April 2025 GPDI assessment and data gathered during the project development revealed that there are over 400,000 displaced individuals across the East Borena and Guji zones due to the armed conflict. These populations, along with host communities, are experiencing critical food shortages resulting from successive failed rainy seasons, livestock decline, and widespread water scarcity due to insufficient pond water capture and non-functional water schemes.ltbrgtThe prolonged humanitarian crisis has devastated essential services, including education. Schools have been damaged, closed, or become inaccessible due to insecurity, forcing families to prioritize basic survival over their children's schooling. This crisis has disproportionately affected school-aged children, leaving them vulnerable to prolonged educational disruption, exploitation, and long-term psychosocial impacts. Existing formal education structures are often inadequate or non-existent/damaged in these areas, highlighting the urgent need for flexible, alternative learning solutions that also address children's holistic well-being.ltbrgtThis project aims to reach 20,570 individuals through comprehensive accelerated education programs. It will employ an inclusive strategy, actively mainstreaming protection, Gender-Based Violence (GBV) prevention, and Accountability to Affected People (AAP) throughout all interventions. Key protection outcomes include strengthening case management for at-risk children, GBV survivors, and other vulnerable children, alongside establishing functional referral pathways across all target Woredas.ltbrgtAligned with the Education Cluster's priorities, the project will implement a multi-layered approach to maximize efficiency. Core activities will focus on:ltbrgt Provision of non-formal education: Offering flexible learning opportunities outside traditional school settings.ltbrgt Home/community-based education: Bringing education directly to children within their communities.ltbrgt Distribution of teaching and learning materials: Ensuring children have the necessary resources for their education.ltbrgt Mental Health and Psychosocial Support (MHPSS) and Social and Emotional Learning (SEL): Addressing the psychological well-being of children affected by trauma and displacement.ltbrgt Inclusive education: Prioritizing access and support for all children, regardless of their background or circumstances.ltbrgtThis project represents a crucial step in providing essential educational opportunities and safeguarding the future of children in these highly vulnerable communities.ltbrgtltbrgtlt/pgtGayo Pastoral Development InitiativeGayo Pastoral Development InitiativeOromia Development AssociationEthiopia Humanitarian FundEducation230886.08369113.92600000.00Ethiopia Humanitarian FundGayo Pastoral Development Initiative240000.00Ethiopia Humanitarian FundGayo Pastoral Development Initiative180000.00Ethiopia Humanitarian FundGayo Pastoral Development Initiative180000.00Ethiopia Humanitarian FundGayo Pastoral Development InitiativeXM-OCHA-CBPF-CBPF-ETH-25-S-NGO-36027United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian AffairsltpgtltbrgtThe ongoing conflict in the Amhara region, creating a volatile and unpredictable security situation.

The action will be implemented in partnership with Concern Worldwide (CWW), an international NGO acting as sub-implementing partner. This multisectoral humanitarian response aligns with the EHF 2025 First Standard Allocation under Thematic Priority 1, addressing acute malnutrition and gaps in essential services in conflict-affected, hard-to-reach areas. The proposed project has a budget of USD 1, Million and a 12-month implementation period. It aims to directly assist over 68,007 individuals across four sectors: Health (30%) and WASH (25%) by FIA, and Nutrition (20%) and Agriculture (25%) by CWW, with an estimated 100,000 indirect beneficiaries in Central Gondar Zone. The intervention addresses urgent needs resulting from conflict, displacement, and systemic service breakdowns that have compromised access to healthcare, safe water, nutrition, and livelihoods. The targeted woredas are identified as EHF priority locations due to alarming rates of malnutrition, food insecurity, and deteriorating health outcomes. FIA will deploy Mobile Nutrition and Health Teams (MNHTs) to provide integrated primary healthcare, maternal and newborn care, immunization, and reproductive health services through the Minimum Initial Service Package (MISP). The health response includes community-level disease surveillance and risk communication to enhance early detection and prevention. The WASH component focuses on restoring essential services by rehabilitating non-functional water schemes, constructing gender-sensitive sanitation facilities near high-malnutrition areas, and distributing hygiene kits and water treatment chemicals to the most vulnerable households. Targeted hygiene promotion and behavioral change and communication (BCC) will engage caregivers and women-headed households to reduce disease risks. Concern Worldwide will implement Nutrition and Agriculture interventions using national protocols and global best practices. Nutrition activities include management of SAM/MAM, assessments, IYCF-E, cooking demonstration, community screenings, and commodity distribution tracking.  The Agriculture component aims to restore livelihoods through the provision of climate-resilient seeds, tools, small livestock, and veterinary services, targeting food-insecure households. These efforts aim to build community resilience and reduce long-term dependency on aid. All components will integrate cross-cutting protection measures, including GBV risk mitigation, inclusion of persons with disabilities and older persons, and Accountability to Affected Populations (AAP). Women and girls will participate throughout the project cycle to ensure safe, inclusive, and responsive programming. Feedback and complaints mechanisms will be accessible, confidential, and culturally appropriate. The nutrition strategy emphasizes early identification and treatment of malnutrition among children under five and pregnant/lactating women (PLW) through mass screenings and awareness-raising. Strengthening local health systems and referral pathways will improve treatment capacity for SAM and MAM cases. Health workers (HWs), Health Extension Workers (HEWs), and the Health Development Army (HDA) will receive support to promote key maternal, infant, and young child feeding (MIYCF) practices through social and behavior change (SBC) interventions. This cost-effective, evidence-based action is aligned with Cluster cost-per-beneficiary benchmarks.

The goal of the project is to address the humanitarian needs of conflict-affected IDPs through a multi-sectoral response that includes WASH and Nutrition, in Gutu Gida Woreda and Education in Haro Limu woreda of East Wollega Zone, Oromia region.ltbrgtBased on the MIRA Report 2023, The conflict in the Wollegas zone is the leading cause of displacement and other human rights violations. the East Wollega Zone, particularly Gutu Gida and Haro Limu Woredas, is experiencing significant humanitarian needs in various sectors including Nutrition, WASH and Education. Notably, 71% Can’t afford medical fees and Lack medicine (72%) in addition to Mental Health and Psychosocial Support (MHPSS) key findings show that 88% of the population in this location observed signs of distress in women, older persons, girls, and persons with disabilities respectively show more signs of distress 9 out of 10 key informants reported to have observed signs of distress among the different populations in their locations. ltbrgtAfter child labor, nutrition is the second most important issue among the top five concerns affecting children (MIRA2023).  Furthermore, food shortages brought on by displacement have caused the physical health of females to worsen or become malnourished.  Severe Acute Malnutrition (SAM) and Moderate Acute Malnutrition (MAM) among children under five and pregnant and lactating women (PLWs) have increased in the woredas as a result of disruptions in the management of acute malnutrition caused by damage to health facilities. Among 14,495 children screened out Global Acute Malnutrition (GAM) is at 33%, SAM is at 9%, MAM is at 24%, and OPD screening results suggest that 11% and 9% of the people in Gutu Gida woreda are moderately and severely underweight, respectively, according to the most current needs assessment by ANE.ltbrgtThe water supply system issues such as insufficient water storage capacity (60%) and lack of available water (54%) in the East Wollega zone especially in Gutu Gida Woreda have been severely disrupted due to the conflict, resulting in 14% of the water supply schemes being non-functional (75). This has led to acute water shortages and increased risks of waterborne diseases for many residents.  Schools and health institutions in Gutu Gida currently lack WASH services, meaning they do not have adequate access to water and latrines as per spare standards.ltbrgtfragile recovery. ltbrgtIn Haro Limu Woreda access to education remains highly problematic for both internally displaced persons (IDPs) and host community children in the targeted woredas. Over the past 2–3 years, many schools have ceased functioning, and some remain closed altogether. After displacement, many IDP children dropped out due to a lack of access to scholastic materials and educational inputs. Where schools are operational, overcrowding is a major issue, with a classroom-to-student ratio of 1:97, a desk-to-student ratio of 1:5, and a student-to-books ratio of 1:5 at the primary level. There has been no provision of educational materials for IDP children, and financial constraints on families have further contributed to dropout rates, leading to a marked decline in the quality of education.ltbrgtANE will prioritize the involvement of local communities and organizations with its sub implementing partner Gurmuu development organization which is established in 2005, having robust operational presence and services to grassroots communities in the Oromia region specially in east Wollega zone. Gurmuu’s intervention related to education focuses on: basic education provision, promoting quality education and girls’ enrollment as well as encouraging community participation.

The project will train 60 frontline service providers including health workers, social workers, and legal focal points on Clinical Management of Rape (CMR), GBV case management, and referral protocols, ensuring safe and effective survivor-centered service delivery.lt/pgtltpgtltbrgtTo foster community ownership and tackle stigma and harmful norms, OWS-DF will implement 10 structured awareness-raising sessions using Somali-language IEC materials. These sessions will engage traditional and religious leaders, youth groups, and women’s associations to promote behavioral change and increase understanding of GBV, survivors’ rights, and available services. In parallel, 10 community-based protection committees will be established, trained, and equipped with toolkits to support localized GBV monitoring and referral, strengthening grassroots protection capacity. The project will also support the establishment of inter-agency referral pathways through service mapping, coordination meetings, and dissemination of Somali-language referral directories.lt/pgtltpgtltbrgtOWS-DF brings a strong presence and trusted relationships in the project area, particularly in Gabalu woreda, where it has successfully implemented a previous Health Cluster project. This presence facilitates deep community access, local partnerships, and a culturally informed approach to service delivery. An estimated 36,385 people will be indirectly reached through improved community awareness, enhanced protection infrastructure, and expanded access to information. Targeted investments in One-Stop Centers, feedback mechanisms, and localized complaint-handling systems will ensure accountability, build trust, and strengthen the humanitarian response. All activities are grounded in a survivor-centered, rights-based, and culturally sensitive approach, with emphasis on inclusion of persons with disabilities and other marginalized groups.lt/pgtltpgtThis project directly aligns with the Ethiopia Humanitarian Fund (EHF) 2025 strategic priorities by addressing urgent protection needs in hard-to-reach, underserved areas with no other GBV actors present. The USD 250,000 requested will enable OWS-DF to deliver timely, coordinated, and culturally appropriate protection services, reduce the risk of GBV, and restore dignity and resilience to the most vulnerable women and girls in Afdem and Gabalu.ltbrgtltbrgtlt/pgtOWS Development FundOWS Development FundEthiopia Humanitarian FundProtection125412.54124587.46250000.00Ethiopia Humanitarian FundOWS Development Fund125000.00Ethiopia Humanitarian FundOWS Development Fund125000.00Ethiopia Humanitarian FundOWS Development Fund
