Emergency Telecommunications Cluster (ETC) in the Democratic Republic of Congo Was Activated on 20 November 2017 Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) – Conflict ETC Situation Report #3 Reporting period 24/01/18 to 15/06/18 The Emergency Telecommunications Cluster (ETC) in the Democratic Republic of Congo was activated on 20 November 2017. Under the global leadership of the World Food Programme (WFP), the ETC is coordinating the ICT response with government, the private sector and humanitarian partners on the ground. Highlights The Emergency Telecommunications Cluster (ETC) is providing shared security telecommunications services to support humanitarian operations in the Kasai region, South Kivu and Tanganyika. These services are available in Kananga and Tshikapa (Kasai-Occidental), Mbuji-Mayi (Kasai-Oriental), Bukavu (South Kivu) and in Kalemie (Tanganyika). The ETC carried out assessment missions in Sud Kivu and Tanganika provinces in May 2018 to evaluate evolving needs and adjust plans Healthcare worker disinfects areas where cases of deaths from Ebola have been reported. accordingly. Photo: WHO Due to the Ebola outbreak in May 2018, the ETC has submitted a funding application to the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) to provide services in the affected areas in the North-West part of DRC. Situation Overview On 8 May 2018, the Ministry of Health of the Democratic Republic of the Congo notified the World Health Organization (WHO) of an Ebola outbreak in Bikoro Health Zone, Equateur Province. According to the Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA), the epidemic seems to be stabilizing with zero deaths and zero new cases since 21 May. Bikoro, Iboko, Wangata and Itipo, are affected health zones located in a dense forest intertwined by rivers and lakes in Équateur province. Access by road is limited to cars and motorcycles. Humanitarians are facing logistical and communications challenges as most parts of these areas are not covered by mobile network coverage. It has been reported that satellite phone are experiencing performance difficulties because of the density of the forest. The ETC is a global network of organizations that work together to provide shared communications services in humanitarian emergencies Page 1 of 3 ETC Response The ETC conducted an assessment in the provinces of South- Kivu and Tanganika provinces in the first half of May to identify evolving communications needs. [Full report in French is available here: https://www.etcluster.org/document/etc-assessment-report-sud-kivu-and-tanganika-provinces-may-2018- fr]. o The recommendation for South-Kivu was to deploy an inter-agency Communications Centre (COMCEN) in Baraka and Uvira. In addition, the installation of a radio repeater in Lusenda – covering Mboko- was recommended to provide security telecommunication services to humanitarians. o In Tanganika, it was recommended to upgrade the COMCEN in Kalemi upgrade radio room and to set up COMCENs in Nyunzu and Kabalo. In the Kasai region, the ETC has a minimum security telecommunications infrastructure operational in Kananga, Tshikapa and Mbuju-Mayi. Due to the Ebola outbreak in May 2018, the ETC is monitoring the situation and engaging with partners on the ground to evaluate needs. The ETC is preparing a plan for the next three months that includes prepositioning connectivity kits in Mbandaka, which can be deployed in surrounding areas if necessary. Planned Response Following the assessment conducted, the ETC will provide security telecommunications services in Uvira and Baraka (South Kivu) as well as in Nyunzu and Kabalo (Tanganyika). In Lusenda (South-Kivu), the ETC is planning to provide Very High Frequency (VHF) radio services to NGOs and UN agencies in the refugee camps area to facilitate humanitarian operations. Challenges Unstable security conditions in the affected areas is the main challenge that humanitarians are currently facing. Funding The ETC received US$600,000 from the Central Emergency Response Fund - Rapid Response (CERF RR) fund to further upgrade security telecommunications in Kasai, Sud-Kivu and Tanganyika provinces. As part of the Ebola outbreak, the ETC has submitted a funding proposal to USAID a for a three-month monitoring period in the Mbandaka area and coordinate deployment of communications services, if required, from there. Meetings The next Global ETC teleconference on the ETC activities in DRC, Central African Republic (CAR) and Nigeria will be held on 11 July 2018.

  • An Estimated Dynamic Model of African Agricultural Storage and Trade
    High Trade Costs and Their Consequences: An Estimated Dynamic Model of African Agricultural Storage and Trade Obie Porteous Online Appendix A1 Data: Market Selection Table A1, which begins on the next page, includes two lists of markets by country and town population (in thousands). Population data is from the most recent available national censuses as reported in various online databases (e.g. citypopulation.de) and should be taken as approximate as census years vary by country. The \ideal" list starts with the 178 towns with a population of at least 100,000 that are at least 200 kilometers apart1 (plain font). When two towns of over 100,000 population are closer than 200 kilometers the larger is chosen. An additional 85 towns (italics) on this list are either located at important transport hubs (road junctions or ports) or are additional major towns in countries with high initial population-to-market ratios. The \actual" list is my final network of 230 markets. This includes 218 of the 263 markets on my ideal list for which I was able to obtain price data (plain font) as well as an additional 12 markets with price data which are located close to 12 of the missing markets and which I therefore use as substitutes (italics). Table A2, which follows table A1, shows the population-to-market ratios by country for the two sets of markets. In the ideal list of markets, only Nigeria and Ethiopia | the two most populous countries | have population-to-market ratios above 4 million. In the final network, the three countries with more than two missing markets (Angola, Cameroon, and Uganda) are the only ones besides Nigeria and Ethiopia that are significantly above this threshold.

  • DRC Humanitarian Access East Provinces Sept-Nov 2017
    Democratic Republic of the Congo: Security-Related Humanitarian Access Overview (from September to November 2017) In Democratic Republic of the Congo, humanitarian access is impac- ted by sporadic security-related inci-dents reported in various areas of Central African Republic the country. From September to November 2017, there were more South Soudan than 130 security incidents (60 in October) in 92 locations, featuring conflicts over land control and exactions against civilians. In this Gbadolite 10 context, the ability of humanitarian actors to reach affected popula- 20 tions was reduced, as well as the affected population’s capacity to North-Ubangi Cameroon Gemena Haut-Uelet access assistance. As a result, over 1 million people in need had Bas-Uele limited access to aid. The most affected provinces remain the Kivus, Buta Isiro South-Ubangi where the situation has significantly deteriorated, totaling 54% of the Lisala reported incidents. 37 Mongala Ituri BBunia Uganda 134 92 28 1.26M Ts hop o unique Equateur incidents territories with limited access to aid due * Kisangani locations to security-related constraints Mbandaka 6 Number of security-related incidents by province and month Boende Congo 110 Province September October November Total Gabon NorthNorth Nord-Kivu 19 42 12 73 Ts hua pa Kivu Goma Sud-Kivu 24 7 4 35 Inongo Haut-Katanga 4 1 2 7 Rwanda Maniema Bukavu Ituri - 5 2 7 Maï-Ndombe Kindu SouthSouth Tanganyika 2 - 1 3 83 Bandundu 5 KivuKivu Burundi Kasaï-Central 2 1 - 3 Sankuru Maniema 2 - - 2 KINSHASA Ts ho po - 1 - 1 Kenge
