The interventions were implemented in the provinces of Iloilo and Capiz, with the bulk going to the municipality of Carles, Iloilo. The program is funded by SHO (Dutch Cooperating Aid Agencies). SHO-SCNL’s Typhoon Haiyan’s program was undertaken in two phases—phase 1 focused on emergency and early recovery and phase 2 focused on recovery. The first phase of the SHO funded intervention consists of providing shelter and non-food items and also providing direct conditional cash transfers to replace boats and other fishing inputs. The second phase of the SHO funded intervention has three components: food security and livelihood (FSL); education; and, water, sanitation and health (WASH). The FSL component consisted of providing resources to a thousand vulnerable households in the fishing communities, including non-boat owning households, geared at recovering their livelihood and/or starting an alternative livelihood. It also provided support to fishing associations to aid in coral recovery, and to small-scale traders for market recovery. The education program includes activities aimed at resuming learning and school activities. Moreover, the education component includes institutional and capacity building support to the education cluster. The WASH activities consists of repair or construction of WASH facilities in seven schools and provision of latrines to more than a thousand vulnerable households. The program has ended in June 2015 and this final external evaluation is needed for accountability
