INTRODUCTION:

Disaster Management has been a new discipline in Sikkim over the last few years. With increasing frequency and intensity of disasters and large number of people coming in their way, the subject needs a more systematic attention and a planned approach. State Disaster management Act, 2007 mandates the development of comprehensive disaster management plan at the state level.

A lot of efforts have been going on for development of plans at different levels by different agencies. The documents largely remain limited to knowledge and information manuals rather than practical action plans for the stakeholders. There has also been a significant change in our understanding of disaster management from National to the grassroot levels in the last few years. Hyogo Framework for Action and later National Disaster Management Act 2005 brought a paradigm shift in disaster management from a reactive relief based approach to a more proactive disaster risk reduction approach.

The evolving understanding of the subject of disaster management, lessons learnt from the existing plans and the mandate provided by State Disaster Management Act, 2007 to DDMA's for developing comprehensive disaster management plan provides an excellent opportunity for modelling plans and a standard process for development of district disaster management plan for replication in different parts of the country.

Sphere India, National Coalition of Humanitarian Agencies in the country, in collaboration With SSDMA and technical support from GOI-UNDP and its member agencies like IAGs initiated the process to develop the state plan. The figure below illustrates the timeline and process followed for the same.

Plan developed on : 2014-2015 Next review and updation due in : April 2016 Database updation schedule : Every April and October months (Every six month) Mock drill schedule : May month of every Year.

Annexure 8: Guidance Note- Rapid Joint Needs Assessment – Phase 01 (INDIA)

Phase 1 – Initial Days (1-25 days in the immediate aftermath of a disaster) Disclaimer: Whilst every effort has been made to ensure the accuracy of the information contained in all our information updates, human error at times does get in. please let us know of any typo errors within the document

Proposed Guidance Document Carrying out the Rapid Joints Needs Assessment Phase 1 – Initial Days (1-25 days in the immediate aftermath of a disaster)

1. Purpose of this guidance This guidance is intended to support assessment teams in carrying out rapid needs assessment in the immediate aftermath of a disaster, as well as completing the rapid needs assessment report. It is guidance only, and assessment teams can follow their own processes, or adapt the proposals here to suit their own needs. For any questions about the assessment process, please contact a. your Regional Programme team leader or b. Refer the nearest state level Inter Agency Coordinator or c. Reach out to the Sphere India platform at the national level,

2. Objectives of the review process The assessment process is intended as an immediate reflex action for programmes and their partners to reach out to the affected communities through informed decision making backed by credible information on needs and identified geographies, in relation to the commitments made under the actions mandated by humanitarian imperative. The core objective of phase 1 Rapid Needs Assessment is to provide a rapid overview of the disaster and the needs for assistance. The assessment will serve the following purposes: a) Information collected through this format to form the basis for decision making in the initial stages of a disaster, including the need for more detailed assessments. b) This format is designed to assist in the completion of a Phase 1 joint report which is intended to be ready within five days of a sudden onset disaster. c) To provide opportunities for reflection and learning between the programme team, partners and other relevant stakeholders in order to synthesize and interpret data, and build ownership and shared understanding of results and priorities d) To challenge ourselves to perform even better and provide greater value for money and to ensure decisions are informed by evidence e) To hold ourselves accountable for the commitments we have made to the communities we work for, our partners, supporters, funders and others

Note: This format is presently for use in primarily in Rural areas but can be contextualized for Urban settings as well. The data collection ought to be completed in three days and reporting in the two following days. The format compiles information from several sources such as MIRA, JNA formats, Individual agencies RNA etc. 118

3. Needs Assessment process The rapid needs assessment will follow the ToR developed for this process, (please refer the ToR in the Annexure 01) Once the assessment has been agreed, the following steps will be taken by the Assessment Team to complete the phase 1 format: . Visit the affected geographies / communities in all disaster affected Villages . Fill in one format for each Village visited . Consult government officials and elected representatives (Village committee members, elected representatives) to fill out this format . Consult other civil administration officials, Aid agencies, I/NGOs and Philanthropists groups, private companies operating in the affected Village(s) to confirm findings and/or address gaps in knowledge . Finalise the formats and update the data compilation spread sheet . Report back by sharing the filled in format(s) to the compilation teams

Figure 1. Needs Assessment Process

Consult Stakeholders to Visit the affected confirm findings geographies / Finalise formats Report back and/or address communities gaps in knowledge

• Fill in one format for each • government officials • Fill in/ update the data • By sharing the filled in format(s) Village visited • Elected representatives compilation spread sheet to the compilation teams • Civil administration officials • Aid agencies, I/NGOs and • Philanthropists groups, • private companies

4. Timeline of the needs assessment The rapid needs assessment is a contextual exercise that should ideally begin in the immediate aftermath of a disaster (ex post). However, there are times when the early warning supports preempt such actions to start prior to the event (ex ante) and help in saving quality time post event. The ideal timeline in a post disaster scenario suggests the following timeline a) Pre disaster preparedness actions: i. Training on the needs assessment formats ii. Identification of the teams iii. Demarcation of the vulnerable geographies iv. Collection of secondary data v. Agreements with the govt. officials and civil authorities, elected representatives etc. 119

vi. Identification of roles and responsibilities within the teams and the state IAG’s b) Day 00-01- process of readying for the needs assessment start c) Day 02-03- Assessment teams in the field start the assessments d) Day 03 onwards- early information starts coming in and data analysis starts at HQ level e) Day 04-05- consolidation of primary and secondary data for a detailed analysis and emergence of critical needs and geographies – simultaneous report writing starts f) Day 05-07- Release of the final needs assessment report for the event by the State IAG and Sphere Platform (national)

5. Methodology • It is important that interviews are conducted at the affected areas within the community habitations. • It is also important to try to make contact with the identified person/ community at least twice, if the first attempt is unsuccessful. Without these steps, it is very likely that certain types of people, such as the marginalized communities, elderly, Single / widowed women, homemakers, students or the unemployed, will be more likely to participate than would be the case in a truly random selection and the results may well be biased. • When introducing the questionnaire, the interviewer should make it clear that the intent of the questionnaire and the agency supporting the exercise is to understand the needs of the affected communities and does not in any way relate to a possible future response action either by the individual or the agency. • The interviewers should ask the questions in the order that they are laid out in the questionnaire, without changing the wording and they should immediately record the responses. • Participants will not be expected to read any of the questions or write down their answers, and they must never be put under pressure to answer anything that they don’t want to answer. • Inform the interviewer that they should not read out response category options or the answers in the boxes.

6. Question wise guidance The district format is a mix of secondary data needs and some primary data while the village data format has a higher degree of primary data needed. Complete the format using a combination of key informant interviews, field visits, and direct observation: Village level format

6.1 Village level format Total questions: 91 a) Q 1-7 – to be completed by the assessment team b) Q8 – to be filled on the basis of the Geo Coded photo taken with a GPS enabled smartphone camera or a digital camera c) Q9- & 11- to be filled by the assessment team in consultation with the partner agency or the state IAG d) Q10 &12- this data can be collected by the partner agency at the district / block level e) Q13-35, 38-41– fill these questions in mutual consultation with the villagers/ officials cross validated by field investigations where possible f) Q36- proper care and diligence while filling this questions

120

g) Q37- this question and other questions need specific knowledge of the context and are ideally filled based on observation and attention instead of simple questioning h) Q42 -44- these are in some ways leading questions and care must be taken to ensure that we do not end up raising expectations and lead to anticipated early actions due to reflective responses i) Q45-68- fill these questions in mutual consultation with the villagers/ officials cross validated by field investigations where possible j) Q69-83- these are in some ways leading questions and care must be taken to ensure that we do not end up raising expectations and lead to anticipated early actions due to reflective responses k) Q84- specific care should be taken to fill these question as the categories have a tendency of sounding like each other l) Information Sources data should be legibly written and the respondents assured that this data will be used strictly in confidence and will serve an academic interest only

6.2 District level format Total questions: 41 The district level format is to be filled by the partner agency or the district inter agency platform based on the secondary data available before hand and ex post data collection from the district headquarters. The district format has an iterative nature to it and may be refined/ revised twice in the lifecycle of the phase 01 Rapid Joint Needs Assessment

7. Good Practices . Visit a number of different locations in the affected Village . When there is conflicting information, the Assessment Team should fill the format in using their best idea at the time, based on their understanding of the disaster’s impact, their own professional experience, secondary data, and lessons learned from similar disasters . When accessibility is challenged, but where phone communication is possible, the format can be completed over the phone with the permission of the organization/team coordinating the assessment.

8. Limitations This format is not a survey, rather it: . Provides a standard format for recording and comparing information about a disaster . Presents an understanding of the disaster’s impact by the Govt. officials and other stakeholders in the affected area . Outlines how the disaster is likely to unfold in the days and weeks to follow . Uses information based on local knowledge and past experiences . Uses estimations of the numbers/percentages of people affected in different ways (providing an estimate is challenging, but local authorities are in the best position to do this). . Informs the agencies to mount immediate disaster assistance in the affected geographies and builds the base for need based scalable multi sectoral detailed needs assessment in the days to come.

Some information in this format relates to the pre-disaster situation in the location. This can and should be completed from pre-crisis sources (either in New Delhi/ State capitals or in the districts). Do not waste the time of block officials by/ respondents asking questions that could be answered easily using other sources of information. 121

Annexure 9: TERMS OF REFERENCE JOINT RAPID NEEDS ASSESSMENT Area targeted Date Lead organization BACKGROUND OF THE ASSESSMENT  Short description of the disaster and affected area:  Short description of any ongoing DRR/CCA/Humanitarian response and assessments already conducted:  Background to the Sphere India’s decision to conduct JRNA (include when the decision was taken):

GENERIC OBJECTIVES TO RJNA 1. Pre crisis profile of the affected area and in-crisis information on the disaster  Summarize information about the disaster  Outline the pre-crisis situation of the affected area  Identify the underlying factors that could influence the vulnerability of the affected population 2. Profile of the affected population  Collate quantitative information on the number of affected population (based on GoI/ State Govt. official figures)  Provide an overview of the post disaster situation of the affected population  Provide a cross-sectoral analysis of the likely priority needs of the affected population (WASH, Food Security & Livelihood, Shelter, Education, Health, Nutrition (Malnutrition) Protection and Early Recovery) 3. Findings and recommendations  Provide recommendations for immediate response (including the need for response or not)  Provide a initial response gap analysis (based on-going response and the response capacities of GoI, UN, INGO, NGO and Community) 122

4. Scenarios and next steps  Identify potential constraints for humanitarian assistance (security, logistic, accessibility, administrative)  Develop scenarios or trends on the most probable evolution of the situation  Make recommendation for any further assessment (e.g. detailed sectoral assessments etc.)

SPECIFICS OBJECTIVES RJNA For each JRNA, please adapt the generic objectives to this specific assessment based on what is known about the disaster and Sphere India discussions. e.g: 1. To identify immediate humanitarian priorities in the aftermath of natural and manmade disaster 2. To identify and analyse the critical needs of affected communities, local coping mechanisms and through an understanding of the capacities (incl. response capacities) of the authorities, to respond. 3. To map existing gaps in needs and available resources and needs. 4. To identify challenges (Geographic, political, local, logistics, social) in providing immediate relief and response.

SCOPE: GEOGRAPHIC COVERAGE AND SAMPLING The Rapid Joint Needs Assessment will cover the following affected area (list geographic areas to be included and include map in annex X): It will further specify what is included in the scope of the JRNA and What is not District Panchayat Name of District no 1 Name of the affected Block Name of the affected Panchayat Name of District no 2 Name of the affected Block Name of the affected Panchayat Etc...

Information will be collected on each and every geographical unit (a decision about using block and panchayat information will be taken by the Sphere India based on the geographic scope of the disaster). No sampling strategy will be used in order to cover all the affected area.

123

ASSESSMENT TASKS 1. Coordination  Decide on assessment lead organization (Sphere India)  Lead organization should form assessment core group (specific to this assessment) composed by maximum of 6 organizations. This should be done in the first 4 – 8 hours from an assessment trigger.  Communication / information to Sphere India/ IAG on the progress of the assessment  Communication to District and block level officials regarding assessment plans  Ensure broad ownership of the Rapid Joint Needs Assessment (communication with all). 2. Secondary Data Review5  Collect and analyze pre-crisis secondary data to compare pre crisis and current situation of the affected area.  Collect and analyze in-crisis secondary data to complement the primary data collection.  Collect and analyze a 3W matrix of the ongoing response for the gap analysis  Collect and analyze quantitative information on the affected population from government officials and sit-reps 3. Primary data collection  Define/establish a list of affected geographical units (based on selection of panchayats and blocks as determined by the Sphere India/ IAG for the specific assessment). Assign organizations to these.  Ensure that all the information collected in each geographical unit (panchayat or block) during field visits, meeting with local authorities will be compiled in one template per geographical unit (panchayat or block). 4. Data processing and interpretation  Collate all assessment formats (i.e for all panchayats and blocks) in one datasheet.  Production of tables, graphs and maps based on the primary data collected and quantitative information from government officials 5. Joint Analysis  Facilitation of a Joint Analysis consultation (this would normally be expected to be very light and conducted through email and phone calls due to the time frame but could be via a meeting if possible) with multi-stakeholder, multi-sector representation.  Based on the graphs and tables produced from the raw data (above), secondary data, baselines and pre-crisis knowledge stakeholders agree on findings, priorities and recommendations.  Production of the findings and recommendations in a format to be shared (ppt, report

5Sources of information for this will include pre-crisis information such as population figures, demographic breakdown, poverty profile, agricultural and livelihood knowledge; qualitative information about the affected region or population from documents such as lessons learned from past events or other studies and in-crisis information from sources such as assessment reports, media coverage, government sit-reps, weather reports. 124

etc) 6. Findings and Recommendations dissemination  Presentation of the findings and recommendations to the IAG/ Sphere for decision- making.  Presentation of the findings and recommendations in Government and donors meeting as required  Dissemination of the report through a pre defined mailing list  Publication of the report in the Sphere India website  Sphere India Inter Agency Coordination Committee will continue debating on the analysis and progressive changes in the humanitarian situation. Core Group or separate team from members may be convened for the purpose if needed. 7. Lessons Learned workshop  At a future time which is suitable to as many stakeholders as possible, the coordinating agency should arrange a lessons learned event in order to capture the key learning from the assessment so that this can improve future assessment tools and practice. ASSESSMENT APPROACH AND METHODOLOGY This assessment will follow the Rapid Joint Needs Assessment approach. The methodology is a multi sectoral and multi stakeholders approach based on the utilization of secondary data and RJNA format data collection and joint analysis of findings.

EXPECTED OUTPUT / DELIVERABLE  Short narrative report (including map, tables, graphs, 5 to 10 pages max) which detail the assessment findings and recommendations (according to outline report)  Presentation with the main findings and recommendations; triangulated with government assessment and plan.  Dataset (database) with primary data collected and quantitative data compiled (available to all via Sphere India) The administrative and logistic arrangements, such as transport and accommodation  Agency contribution of staff, logistics for participation. Participants: Each assessor should be thoroughly familiar with the data collection process and the information elicited by each question. Each should have received notes to explain key terminologies and outline site sampling.  Consolidation and analysis: Using expert judgment, team members assess the situation (identifying priority needs, concerns, groups, etc.) based on formal and informal elements of the visit, and justify or expand on their conclusions.  Report writing and dissemination to include drivers of the crisis and underlying factors, scope of the crisis and humanitarian profile, status of populations living in affected areas, national capacities and response, humanitarian access, coverage and gaps, strategic humanitarian priorities

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:

AVERAGE GLOBAL POPULATION STRUCTURE

The following table gives an indicator of the average global population structure broken down by age. However, it is important to note that this is context-specific and can vary significantly. For example, in some rural communities, out-migration of middle generations has resulted in disproportionately high numbers of older people caring for children. In case of relief camps, the percentage of women may be little higher than men.
