Sudan - ACT: 08-Mar-01

Actikon by Churches Together (ACT) Appeal for Sudan Relief & Rehabilitation - AFSD-11 Appeal Target: US$ 594,749 Geneva, 8 March 2001

This is the third and final relief appeal to assist the people of Wau who were affected by the severe famine which forced many to converge on Wau town in December 1997. The four camps set up and managed by ACT (NCA and SCC) have now been turned into permanent villages as the people living there are not willing to move from these camps. Since the ACT program began in Wau in 1998 the internally displaced people have achieved better shelter, food security, health services, and education. The activities in this appeal are meant to finalise some of the ongoing relief programs and also prepare the people for the longer term development activities especially in food security if peace and calm is maintained in the area. The Norwegian Church Aid (NCA) and the Sudan Council of Churches (SCC) therefore, propose to continue assisting the IDPs in Wau in the following sectors: Nutrition Health Care & Medical Inputs Agriculture & Food security Education Project Completion Date: 31 December 2001.

Rudolf Hinz Director ACT Coordinator Director WCC/Cluster on Relations LWF/World Service REQUESTING ACT MEMBER Sudan Council of Churches (SCC) Norwegian Church Aid (NCA) IMPLEMENTING ACT MEMBER & PARTNER INFORMATION Sudan Council of Churches (SCC) is an indigenous ecumenical Christian organisation. It supports the Sudanese churches in developing their spiritual, intellectual and resource capacity. SCC was formed in the 1940's to bring the churches together to help the spread of the Gospel and render services to the needy. In 1972 the Relief and Rehabilitation Commission was formed to rehabilitate the returnees from the neighbouring countries and the internally displaced people after the Addis Ababa Agreement. Norwegian Church Aid (NCA) is an ecumenical relief and development aid organisation. It is based on the values of justice, participation, compassion and peace. NCA has had fifty years of global experience, responding to emergency situations and working on development agendas. NCA played an instrumental role in co-ordinating and implementing ACT's relief efforts in Wau in 1998/99. The Episcopal Church of Sudan (ECS) is one of the major Protestant churches in the Sudan. ECS is a member of the Inter Church Committee - Wau and is providing education for IDP students and conducting a feeding program for these students at its school. The Roman Catholic Church (RCC) is defined as a universal church. RCC in Wau is one of the agencies which was the first to respond to the needs of the internally displaced persons (IDPs) and returnees when they started to flood into Wau town in April 1998. The catholic Church has been extremely active during the past year, providing medical services to the IDP population of Wau via their three clinics and the mobile clinic that travels t the two camps of Baryar and Mariel Ajiith. It has absorbed thousands of IDP children into their existing educational facilities in Wau town, as well as building temporary school classrooms in the above named camps. DESCRIPTION OF THE EMERGENCY SITUATION Background The four states which form Bahr el Ghazal have an estimated population of 2.2 million. The semi-nomadic, pastoralist Dinka are the main group while several minor tribes, such as the Fertid and Jur are dependent on agriculture. Civil war, drought and occasional floods have contributed to the catastrophe. Many people have had to abandon their homes either in search of food or to escape the fighting. Many arrived in Wau, the capital city or neighbouring villages where several NGOs were involved in providing relief to these people. The IDPs arriving in Wau come from an area where they had very little food and where they had to exist on wild fruit and herbs. Many were starving when they arrived in Wau and many died en route. The Act-Wau Emergency Project is a joint operation between NCA and SCC. The Project is implemented through local co-operating partners (churches). During the famine and unrest in Bahr el Ghazal an ACT-appeal was launched with very good response. The Act-Wau Project started its operations in the autumn 1998 during the famine in Bahr el Ghazal. The ACT-appeal focused not only on the hunger situation but also on the situation for the many that had become internally displaced due to unrest and fighting in the region. The main aim was to feed the hungry and start assisting them in building shelters. Four sites were demarcated for IDP-camps in the outskirts of Wau town. The Project was extended to December 2000 and it has been funded by donations through Action of Churches Together (ACT) for this period. The NCA/SCC project concentrates on helping the IDPs. Action of Churches Together (ACT) has already supported this programme for two years and this appeal will make it 3 years . It is therefor of the greatest importance that other donors can come in to assist the IDPs to further develop their camps, which have turned out to become more like local villages. When IDPs are asked if they want to go back to their home areas, they say they have no place to go and want to remain in the camps. Even if the harvest had been good this year and they have enough to eat, the need to assist them in developing health and educational services is still an urgent issue which needs to be addressed. GOALS AND OBJECTIVES Health and Medical Inputs Goal: to improve the health situation among the IDPs Objective: to decrease the prevalence of illnesses through easier accessibility to health services. Current Situation: The Project is assisting the Roman Catholic Church (RCC) in providing medical services to the IDP population. A 4x4 Land-cruiser pick up has been bought to use as a mobile clinic until the camps have been equipped with clinics. NCA is paying the running cost for the mobile clinic. Last year a clinic was erected in Marial Ajiit camp and a multi-purpose hall was built for TB-patients within the Health Training Institute premises. NCA has assisted RCC with the provision of essential drugs, laboratory equipment and in paying subsidies to 80 members of staff. The project also supports training, and updating of medical staff at the clinics. Planned Activities: Building one clinic in Khorukanda, and providing building materials for repair of already existing clinics. The clinic will be built of brick, because the Humanitarian Aid Commission and Ministry of Health want more permanent structures. Building contracts will be made with local companies and purchase of building materials will be made locally. Continue to pay monthly subsidies for 20 medical staff in the clinic. Run the Mobile clinic until other services are available. Continue to provide essential drugs for the clinics. Continue to assist and provide basic medical equipment. Finance and facilitate education and training for health personnel to upgrade the standard of services. Food Security and Agriculture. Goal: to promote sustainable and self-reliant food security among the IDPs. Objectives: Reduce gap of food and seed shortages. Increase yearly income from the sale of surplus from crops. Reduce nutritional disorders Current Situation: Accessible land in the outskirts of the camps cleared with the assistance from agriculturists, seconded from the Ministry of Agriculture. Seed bank established for all the IDP camps. Farmers assisted with tools and food for agriculture (DIA). Planned Activities: Continue to assist in clearing of land for agriculture facilitated through Food For Work (FFW). Last year 1,559 feddans (1 feddan is 60x70m) were cleared for cultivation, and the project proposes to assist in clearing around 700 - 800 feddans in addition which the authorities promised to make available. Continue assisting IDPs who would like to go into farming with seeds. Facilitate training in food processing techniques, and assist in conducting other food security workshops, i.e. fishing and processing, funded by UNICEF. Continue to support community services through Food For Work (FFW), and food for agriculture. Continue to provide tools for agriculture Education Goal: Increase education level and school enrolment among IDPs. Objective: To stabilise the number of school going children and increase the number of girl pupils. Ensure that all schools have qualified headmasters. Current Situation: All the schools in the camps have been built by the community with ACT assistance through Food For Work (FFW). The project has assisted the churches and Government of Sudan in running the schools by paying teachers subsidies, and also provide building materials for extension of the schools. UNICEF has provided most of the textbooks and material for uniforms. Planned Activities: The Project will continue to assist the schools with building materials, school materials, desks and uniforms. The schools are located as follows; one boys and one girl school in Eastern Bank and then one school in each of the following camps; Marial Ajiith, Korukanda ,Bar-Yar and ECS. Teacher's subsidies will continue to be paid - for 2001 and 124 teachers are budgeted for to ensure the possibility of education for the IDP children as this is their only possibility for education. Recruitment of qualified head masters for all 5 schools by introducing a special scale for incentives (Eastern Bank has 2 headmasters, one for the boys school and one for the girls school) - total of 6 headmasters. Extend the support of education services to Raja and Bagary (in Raja they have only one (1) university graduate for 1,200 pupils). Facilitate scholarships from other donors, for teachers to Teachers Training Colleges (at the moment most of the teachers are not trained teachers). Continue to support the school feeding provided by WFP. Nutrition Goal: Improve the nutrition status among sick children who are not able to recover from common illnesses, due to lack of balanced diet. Objectives: Provide the clinics with supplementary food. Current Situation: The Project has been monitoring the nutrition situation among IDPs in Wau through its involvement in the running of the clinics. Of late it has been observed that a number of children do not recover from common illnesses due to poor diet. This is a serious health problem for both mental and physical development for the children. Planned Activities The Project plans to assist the clinics with special food for children who are not able to recover from frequent attacks of malaria and worms - these attacks lower the child's health status (immunity) and renders them unable to recover and gain strength. The Project has been asked to provide BP5 biscuits, unimix, powdered milk and soyaflour. The food will be given after assessment and examination in the clinics and will be purchased from Khartoum and airlifted down to Wau TARGETED BENEFICIARIES Location The Project is located in Wau town, Bahr el Ghazal State, Southern Sudan. The town is under the Government of Sudan control and is "a little island" in an SPLA held area. The only access to Wau is by aircraft. Target group numbers. The number of IDPs in the four camps in Wau is estimated to 30,000. East of Wau is Eastern Bank camp, population 15,000. The target groups comprise the population in Marial Ajiit and Bar-Yar camps, population 14,500, situated North of Wau town. West of Wau lies the Khorukanda camp, population 1,800 and this is the third camp targetted. Criteria for selection of target groups. Norwegian Church Aid intervened in the hunger crisis in 1998, and has continued its support since then to the IDP camps in the area. The groups selected for assistance are people who have had to leave their home villages due to both famine and fighting between Government of Sudan forces and SPLA forces. They arrived in Wau with nothing so they had to be assisted, for basic needs, health and education. After creating hope for the future by providing them the life sustaining necessities, it would be meaningless to stop assistance now, and allow them to fall once more into despair. Target group composition. The target groups are tribes from Bahr el Ghazal State with great care taken to avoid tribal imbalances. NCA/SCC is therefore assisting the following tribes: Jur Chol, Dinka and Fertit. The Dinka tribe is pastoralists but Jur Chol and Fertit are farmers. The main target group is the IDPs in the 3 camps: Mariel Ajiit (population 6,300), Bar-Yar (population 7,000) and Khorukanda (population 1,800). The number of households is estimated to be around 3,500 - of which there are many households headed by women. All households in the area will be assisted in food security by the provision of seeds and tools. The whole IDP population is assisted in the area of health services through assistance and support to the 5 clinics run by the Roman Catholic Church. The schools to be assisted in the 3 IDP camps along with the Episcopal Church of Sudan, Sunday School have 3,457 pupils registered - out of them are 353 girls. Target group accessibility. The Project is located in the surroundings of Wau town which is only accessible by aircraft. The movement of staff in the surroundings of Wau is very smooth since all movements are monitored by Humanitarian Aid Commission (HAC), and co-oporation with them is very good. PROPOSED EMERGENCY ASSISTANCE & IMPLEMENTATION The strategies and activities will be implemented, by the two above mentioned NGOs, according to plan of action, and as listed in the goals and objectives. The Project is implemented in full understanding with the Humanitarian Aid Commission in Sudan Description of assistance. Assistance will be provided in the areas of education, health and food security. Education. The Project have budgeted to assist with the following: For school feeding the project intends filling the gap only where the World Food Programme is not able to deliver food on time. Also to provide cooking utensils, salt and cleaning materials (soap etc). Until this year, firewood has been provided for the cooking in the schools. From 2001 it is proposed that the pupils bring a piece of firewood to school once a week to decrease the expenses and encourage them to take more responsibility for their own wellbeing. A lump sum is budgeted for this line according to expenses in 2000. Reduced from US$55,000 in 2000 to US$20,000 in 2001. Provision of 150 desks at a price of US$60 per desk. Local carpenters are making the desks. Budget US$10,000. For school uniforms UNICEF is providing the material. Up to last year the material was only meant for girls and NCC/SCC project paid for the tailoring which is done locally. During 2000 around 6,500 uniforms were provided at a cost of US$ 4,750. For 2001 it is intended to start providing uniforms for boys as well at an estimated cost of SD 2,500 per uniform, and approximately 500 uniforms will be provided. The same number of uniforms will be provided for girls this year since it seems it is the only proper dress they have for going to school. This brings the budget line to US$10,000 for 2001. 10 new classrooms have to be built at a cost of US$ 2,000 per classroom, amounting to US$20,000. The remaining amount will be used for maintaining the existing school buildings. The schools are built in local materials and are constantly in need of maintenance. The population in the camps carries out the work and they are compensated with Food For Work. Pay subsidies/incentives to 124 teachers in the IDP schools. The subsidies are a motivation for the teachers to go on teaching and earn a wage. The school system is now functioning very well. Teachers training, or courses to update the teachers and inform them on new curriculum developments is very important. It is done locally by calling in resource persons. Two workshops at a cost of US$ 4,000 each + US$ 8,000 have been budgeted A motorbike for the Education Field officer is required since the camps are spread around Wau this will decrease the wear and tear on NCA vehicles. Health and Medical inputs. There is still a need for laboratory equipment and after discussions with the Health Co-ordinator for RCC Health Commission in Wau, they requested the same contribution as in year 2000 for special laboratory equipment. The project only contributes to what the Roman Catholic Church Health Commission is buying. Estimated amount for year 2001, US$6,000. For drugs and syringes it is very difficult to stipulate, but, according to statistics from the clinics, an average of 6,000 to more than 8,000 patients are treated in the clinics per month. Half of the patients are children under 5! Most common diseases are: RTI, malaria, and diarrhoea, skin diseases and sexually transmitted diseases (STD). The budgeted amount has been increased for 2001 to US$20,000, and it is intended for essential drugs in the clinics run for IDPs. Fuel and maintenance for Mobile clinic: The Mobile Clinic is operating 5 days per week in Marial Ajiith. For the year 2001 it is planned for the Mobile Clinic to go to Khorukanda as well, until the clinic has been set up in the camp. The Project pays for all staff in the Mobile clinic - included in the line for staff support. 5 gallons diesel per day is budgetted, at a price of SD2,000 (in Wau). The maintenance will be minimal since the car is new. Staff support is meant to cover the salaries for staff that are difficult to find in Wau, i.e. GMT, mid-wife, laboratory technician, nutritionist etc. These are staff required for running a clinic according to Ministry of Health regulations. The project contributes to 20 staff salaries. Training of Health Workers. The project will pay for training of Community Health Workers in 2001, a 3 week workshop, at a cost of US$ 5,000. In addition to that two refresher courses are planned for staff in the clinics at a cost of US$1,500 each. A clinic will be constructed in Khorukanda IDP camp at an estimated cost of US$ 4,000. The building will be constructed in bricks with zinc roofing sheeets, since both HAC and Government authorities request permanent buildings. Their plan is to turn the IDP camps in to peace villages since they count on most of the people staying even after peace returns. Local entrepreneurs will be contracted, and most of the material will be bought locally. Food security and Agriculture. For food security and agriculture the Project will provide seeds and tools along with Food For Work. As much of the seeds as possible will be bought from local sources. If not available it will be bought from Khartoum. The same goes for tools, since most of them are available in the local market they will be purchased locally. Sorghum seeds will be provided, local variety and 250 90kg sacks at a price of SD15,000. Groundnut seeds will be provided, 250 50 kg sacks at a price of SD 5,000/sack. But due to good recovery of groundnut seeds these might be reallocated to buy more sorghum. But it depends on the IDPs and if they have eaten the groundnut seeds. Vegetable seeds will be provided at a cost at average of SD 25,000 per sack of 50 kg. The Project will provide 30 sacks of different seeds, i.e. okra, cucumber, watermelon. Tools (500) will be provided, i.e., pangas, hoes, rakes, sickles, spades at an average price of SD 1,000 per piece. This should be sufficient since there are still some in stock from last year (DIA donation). Food For Work has to be budgeted as a lump sum and based on the activities from last year. Since activities will not be increased the same amount will be budgeted as from 2000. Implementation Description Per Activity The Project staff will implement the activities and the implementing ACT members will act as a liaison/enabling body to assist the churches in fulfilling their role in the areas of health, education and food security. The staff need for year 2001 is 15 (reduced by 2 since 2000, since the NCA Emergency Co-ordinator is taking over the Project Manager's role). Sudan Council of Churches employs staff - the budget shows salaries, benefits, insurance, etc. External Support Required: Support for the Project will continue from Khartoum. The Emergency Co-ordinator, employed by NCA will replace the Project Manager. Vehicles and Equipment rental: The Project is based in Wau and there is a need for one computer. The pick-up will continue to be rented from SCC. Material transport, storage, warehouse and handling: Since some of the items required have to be brought in from Khartoum by air, there is a need to include both material transport, on hired trucks, in the budget. This is also the case in the local market because items have to be purchased when available and then transport to the warehouse. All warehouses are rented, either from the RCC or from local merchants. For the handling, off and on loading, casual workers are hired. Airlifts for cargo is meant for all the goods not available on the local market, i.e. spare parts for vehicles, things for repair in Khartoum, BP5 biscuits and other items for the project. Non-ACT Donor Input WFP is providing food for the IDPs, and will continue to provide food for school feeding. For the programme to be successful, precautions have to be taken to ensure that food supplies do not "run dry". Thus, contingency plans have been made and budgeted for, to ensure the availability of supplies should the WFP not be able to help. FFW for people to do extra work such as clearing agricultural land, growing crops, maintaining the buildings in the community and assisting in the educational programs has also been budgeted for. Transition from Emergency Since the Project started its activities in Wau 1998 a great difference has been achieved in the area of shelter/housing, food security/agriculture, education (implementation of a functioning school system) and accessibility and availability of health services. The situation in Wau was quite calm during year 2000, which made it possible to clear land for agriculture. The Project assisted the farmers with ground nuts seeds and the harvest was very good. Seed banks were established in every camp enabling them to have some seeds for the next farming season. There were high hopes for the sorghum harvest when the seeds were distributed, but the rains stopped too early so the sorghum harvest ended as a total failure. For 2001 the plan is to assist with seeds (sorghum, groundnuts, and vegetables) again, with a hope that the rain will be enough for a good harvest enabling the the IDPs to be self-reliant. The camps have turned into real villages where people take good care of their tukuls and maintain the surroundings. By asking randomly, when visiting the camps, if they want to go back to their home areas, the answer comes quick that the camp has become their home. Some of the pastoralists have even started to buy cows again. If the situation remains calm it is planned that this will be the last year for emergency assistance and SCC and NCA will have to consider whether to start development programmes from the year 2002. ADMINISTRATION, FINANCE, MONITORING & REPORTING As during the previous years, the overall direction for the activities of the ACT-Wau Project will be provided by the steering Committee in Wau, which is made up of members from the SCC, NCA, ECS and the RCC. The steering committee is essentially the Inter Church Committee of Wau, established by SCC. SCC will be the co-ordinating agency in the ACT 2001 Project. SCC will hire staff applying SCC recruitment procedures and principles. 2001 will be the final year the project can be run with the same staff. According to Sudanese Labour Law and Regulations, a contract can only be renewed once within the same project activity and if that is extended the employment will be indefinite. Administration Up to the end of April the Project will have a Project Manager, expatriate, employed by NCA. From May the responsibilities will be taken over by the Sudanese Emergency Co-ordinator employed by NCA. He will be in charge of both ongoing emergency projects and attend to new emergencies occurring in Sudan. The Emergency Co-ordinator will continue to be responsible to the Steering Committee in Wau. He is the one reporting to ACT-Geneva and is responsible for the Khartoum-based support. The ACT-Wau Co-ordinator is responsible to the Project Manager and the Steering Committee. The ACT-Wau Co-ordinator is a SCC staff who has provided leadership on the ground in Wau for the past two years, and has been seconded to the Project for the year 2001. The Emergency Co-ordinator is responsible for providing narrative and interim financial reports to ACT-Geneva. NCA is taking care of the accounting and financial channels. Finance Management and Controls NCA will, as before, be in charge of the finances, or flow of funds and the logistical support. During the previous years the system has improved and the reporting and accounting system have become more streamlined. Disbursement and control of ACT-Appeal Funds are made by the NCA finance office on direction from the Project Manager (Emergency Co-ordinator). Bookkeeping will be done according to NCA accounting principles and procedures and reports will be prepared as per ACT guidelines. Procurement of goods/services will be done locally if available. Otherwise items will be purchased from Khartoum and transported down. All procurement is requested by the Project Co-ordinator and approved by the Project Manager after necessary discussions with the NCA Finance office, if need be. Monitoring Procedures Continual monitoring will be carried out by the project and concerned staff. The Project Manager (Emergency Co-ordinator) will report to SCC, NCA and the Steering committee on monthly basis and to ACT-Geneva and back donors on quarterly basis. The Project Manager will visit the Project once per month. IMPLEMENTATION SCHEDULE The Project is for a period of one year, from 1 January to 31 December 2001. If nothing changes and the civil war continues the IDPs will remain in the camps. It is possible there may be a slight influx of IDPs this year due to lack of food in the surrounding areas of Wau. The assistance the Project is providing will be applied as need arises. Classrooms have to be built when it is new intake in the schools. Drugs provided for the clinics as soon as funds are available. Seeds distributed in time for cultivation. All other activities are ongoing through the year and will be attended to in a proper way. Maintenance of buildings and premises will be attended to when need be. CO-ORDINATION The Humanitarian Aid Commission (HAC) is the Government focal point, which co-ordinates humanitarian assistance to the affected population in the country. The Project has a very smooth and close corporation with HAC. The ACT Steering Committee, which comprises the SCC, NCA, RCC and ECS, monitors the situation of the IDPs in Wau, and provides the overall direction for the activities in Wau. UN-agencies, namely WFP and UNICEF provide food for general distribution. UN-agencies, INGOs and NGOs meet on a regular basis in Wau and Khartoum to share and co-ordinate relief efforts to avoid duplications. During the past year the ACT-Wau Project has chaired the Education Committee for IDP schools.
