CHF 1St Allocation Tri-Cluster.Pdf
WASH Coord & Plan Shelter Health CHF First Allocation Tri Cluster Strategy – IDP settlement response, Mogadishu 1. Introduction At the CHF board meeting on 17th February 2012, $10.75 million was allocated for a tri-cluster response to address IDPs. More specifically the objectives of the funding were: i. improve living conditions of secondary displaced populations in Mogadishu, ii. respond to needs of newly displaced in Mogadishu and other priority areas, iii. mainstream protection and encourage protection based programming in all programmes focusing on IDPs. The Shelter/NFI, Health and WASH Clusters wrote a broad strategy which set-out how these objectives would be achieved and how the funding was divided between the Clusters. The CHF board accepted the strategy and so this follow-up paper attempts to operationalise the Tri-Cluster Strategy.1 On the 7th May 2012, representatives of the three Clusters met with Tri-Cluster partners and stakeholders to discuss the strategy and how it would practically work on the ground.2 There were a number of issues raised which this paper will address. The launch of the strategy on 20th June 2012 raised another set of concerns and issues. These have been addressed and consolidated in the 10 working principles of the tri-cluster, attached at the end of this document. 2. Coordination and Management The day-to-day management of the projects will be by the partners and reporting lines through the CHF will be maintained. However, as there are 14 partners and 16 projects and considering the challenging nature of Mogadishu to enhance the impact, a Tri-Cluster Coordinator (TCC) and Tri-Cluster Settlement Planner (TCSP) have been recruited3. -

Agulhas and Somali Currents Large Marine Ecosystems Project
Agulhas and Somali Currents Large Marine Ecosystems Project Capacity Building and Training Component National Training Plan for SOMALIA Prepared by: Mr. Hassan Mohamud Nur 1) Summary of key training requirements a) Skill training for fishers. b) To strength the scientific and management expertise c) To introduce an ecosystem approach to managing the living marine resources d) To enhance the local and international markets. e) To secure processing systems f) To upgrade environmental awareness and waste management and marine pollution control g) To create linkages between the local community and the international agencies 2) introduction: Somalia has 3,333Km of coast line of which 2,000Km is in the Indian Ocean south of Cape Guardafui and 1,333Km of north shore of Gulf of Aden. Surveys indicate high potential for fisheries development with evenly distributed fish stocks along the entire coastline, but with greater concentration in the Northeast. The fishing seasons are governed by two monsoon winds, the south west monsoon during June to September and northeast monsoon during December to March and two inter-monsoon periods during April/May and October/November. In the case of Somalia, for the last two decades the number of people engaged in fisheries has increased from both the public and private sector. Although, the marine fisheries potential is one of the main natural resources available to the Somali people, there is a great need to revive the fisheries sector and rebuild the public and private sector in order to promote the livelihood of the Somali fishermen and their families. 3) Inventory of current educational Capacity Somalia has an increasing number of elementary and intermediate schools, beside a number of secondary and a handful of universities. -
