EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Since 2016 the Sabancaya volcano has registered permanent eruptive activity with emissions of gases, ashes and earthquakes, which together with other natural phenomena such as frosts, intense rains and landslides, interrupt local development and affect thousands of people in the province of Caylloma. For this reason, the project aims to integrate disaster risk reduction into institutional management tools of local governments in the Province of Caylloma, with the participation of the population and collaboration at the regional and national levels. The project called "Allichakusun ante desastres" (“Prepared for disasters”) is implemented in two sectors and the reached for the length of award is: (1) agriculture and food security with 545 beneficiaries, and (2) disaster risk reduction policy and practices with 10,014 beneficiaries sensitized, 392 beneficiaries trained, and 339 beneficiaries (54 belong to the community) involved in the development of contingency plans and others. In order to improve agriculture and food security in vulnerable agricultural populations, farmers' households were sensitized, trained and encouraged to implement in their homes (1) an Emergency Family Plan, (2) Emergency backpack, bag or lliclla1 with basic elements of first need, and (3) have food for emergency or disaster situations. In alliance with the Colca Valley Board of Users (of irrigators), the population was summoned to develop the "Allichalusun Family" contest. Sensitization to DRR issues was carried out through various strategies and local media, which were selected after a communicational diagnosis. The project identified nine awareness-raising strategies, such as: messages and recommendations on social networks, production of testimonial videos with beneficiaries, awareness-raising parades, promotion and participation in drills, information fairs with models, costumes and puppets, local radio programs on DRR, among others. Local authorities, officials and leaders, as well as young volunteers, strengthened their capacities in the management of instruments for disaster risk reduction, with the participation of regional technical and scientific institutions such as CENEPRED, INDECI, IGP, and INGEMMET. A Provincial Emergency Operations Center (COEP) was implemented, with furniture and computer equipment, communication, information technology, radio transmitter, portable VHF radio-repeater, electric auto generator, etc., for a better response to emergencies or disasters at the local level. Four low temperature contingency plans were prepared (03 district and 01 provincial). A Multi-Hazard Risk Scenario and the Provincial Disaster Risk Prevention and Reduction Plan are being developed. These are being developed with the participation of the community and local stakeholders, with 54 people belonging to the community are participating in discussions of DRR strategies, and 51 organizations and institutions involved.

PROJECT AREA INFORMATION The project team is installed in the capital of the province of Caylloma, Chivay, which is a centrally located town between the margins of the Colca Canyon, and connects to the capital of the Arequipa region located 166 km away. On the left margin of the Colca Canyon are the districts of Yanque, Ichupampa, Achoma, Maca, Cabanaconde, and Huambo, and on the right margin Coporaque, Lari and Madrigal.

REPORTE ANUAL: OCTUBRE 2018 – SETIEMBRE 2019 Sub – Sector 1: Improving Agricultural Production/Food Security Indicator 1: Number of months of household food self-sufficiency as a result of improved agricultural production programming. This indicator will be measured at the end of the project, due to the fact that the initial intervention strategy of sector 1 was modified, from working with the Community Promoters to strengthen families in the area of food security, to a contest "Allichakusun Families" and training for families through a specialist contest. It should also be mentioned that the activities in this sector were not aimed at improving agricultural production, but rather at improving food security in emergency situations and disasters. Contest "Allichakusun Families": Faced with the occurrence of emergencies and disasters that significantly affect the availability of food, the Project through the contest "Allichakusun Family" (prepared family), promoted the strengthening of the capacities of the inhabitants of the Colca Valley, in practices such as the implementation of the Emergency Family Plan, Emergency Backpack, techniques of transformation and storage of agricultural products (such as dried potato, mashka4, morón5, wiñapo6, grain flour, among others) in situations of emergencies or disasters to improve the availability of food at the family level. After a first call with political authorities of the province, with limited response, actions were coordinated with the community organization called Board of Users of the Colca Valley responsible for the distribution of irrigation water, who supported the call for beneficiaries in this sector. The evaluation of the implementation of the practices promoted by the contest was carried out through home visits, verifying the implementation of the emergency family plan, backpack, bag or lliclla, and food processing and storage practices, where it was appreciated that people applied techniques that have been executed for some time, which were reinforced and refined by the project. It was also observed that the participants store their products in pans or clay pots which give better conservation conditions to their dry grains and the potato is kept in fresh places free of direct light to prevent them from germinating or deteriorating.

  • Geosites and Geotouristic Attractions Proposed for the Project Geopark Colca and Volcanoes of Andagua, Peru
    Geoheritage (2018) 10:707–729 https://doi.org/10.1007/s12371-018-0307-y ORIGINAL ARTICLE Geosites and Geotouristic Attractions Proposed for the Project Geopark Colca and Volcanoes of Andagua, Peru Andrzej Gałaś1 & Andrzej Paulo1 & Krzysztof Gaidzik2,3 & Bilberto Zavala4 & Tomasz Kalicki5 & Danitza Churata4 & Slávka Gałaś1 & Jersey Mariño4 Received: 15 July 2016 /Accepted: 18 May 2018 /Published online: 7 June 2018 # The Author(s) 2018 Abstract The Colca Canyon (Central Andes, Southern Peru), about 100 km long and 1–3 km deep, forms a magnificent cross section of the Earth’s crust giving insight into mutual relations between lithostratigraphical units, and allowing relatively easy interpretation of the fascinating geological history written in the rocky beds and relief. Current activity of tectonic processes related to the subduction of the Nazca plate beneath the South American Plate exposed the geological heritage within study area. Well- developed tectonic structures present high scientific values. The volcanic landforms in the Valley of the Volcanoes and around the Colca Canyon include lava flows, scoria cones and small lava domes. They represent natural phenomena which gained recognition among tourists, scientists and local people. Studies performed by the Polish Scientific Expedition to Peru since 2003 recognized in area of Colca Canyon and Valley of the Volcanoes high geodiversity, potential for geoturism but also requirements for protectection. The idea of creating geopark gained recently the approval of regional and local authorities with support from the local National Geological Survey (INGEMMET). The Geopark Colca and Volcanoes of Andagua would strengthen the relatively poor system of the protected areas in the Arequipa department, increasing the touristic attractiveness and determine constraints for sustained regional development.

We wrote and published the original version of this guide to trekking Colca Canyon without a guide or a tour after our visit in May 2014. At the time, we found all of three blog posts to help us plan the trip (one of those is no longer live, as of this writing). So we wrote our own guide as a way to help all those who come after us. Since then, a number of other travelers trekked the Canyon on their own and wrote about it. Meanwhile, the article continues to be one of the most popular ones on our travel website Where Is Your Toothbrush?, pointing to its continued usefulness to hikers.
