REQUESTING ACT MEMBER INFORMATION § National Christian Council of Sri Lanka (NCC/SL) II. IMPLEMENTING ACT MEMBER AND PARTNER INFORMATION The National Christian Council of Sri Lanka has been in existence for approximately forty five years and promotes joint action in many areas of the life and witness of the churches. The Programmes of Peace & Reconciliation, Relief & Rehabilitation, Christian Education, Communication, etc. are some concerns where the Council generally co-ordinates the activities on behalf of all its members. However, the members are also free to initiate activities on their own. The churches and institutions belonging to the members are spread throughout the island and consist of both Sinhala and Tamil congregations. Since 1983 the Council has been systematically involved in Relief and Rehabilitation work in all affected areas in the country. The Council has a separate unit to implement such work and has served all communities. It is also recognised by the State and has the approval to work in the “un-cleared” areas. The membership of the National Christian Council of Sri Lanka consists of the following Churches & Institutions. MEMBER CHURCHES: Ø Church of Ceylon – Diocese of Colombo Ø Church of Ceylon – Diocese of Kurunegala Ø Methodist Church of Sri Lanka Ø Sri Lanka Baptist Sangamaya Ø Church of South India Ø Dutch Reformed Church Ø The Salvation Army Ø The Presbytery of Lanka MEMBER INSTITUTIONS: Ø Young Men’s Christian Association(YMCA) Ø Young Women’s Christian Association(YWCA) Ø Ceylon Bible Society Ø Christian Literature Society(CLS) Ø Student Christian Movement The drought relief and rehabilitation will be implemented in the Hambantota district in association with the Church of Ceylon – Diocese of Colombo and the Methodist Church situated in the towns of Tangalle and Hambantota. A Programme Co-ordinator from the National Christian Council of Sri Lanka will ensure that the programmes are carried out efficiently & effectively. Sri Lanka Drought Relief & Rehab. 4 Appeal No. ASSL12 III. DESCRIPTION of the EMERGENCY SITUATION Background Sri Lanka, a country which continues to suffer due to the ethnic conflict, is occasionally hit by natural disasters too. Certain parts of the country have not had any rain for the past 22 months which has resulted in people losing their livelihood and living in miserable conditions. People have been unable to cultivate crops for a long time and whatever was grown was destroyed by the drought resulting in loss of a basic income which has in turn increased poverty. The worst affected districts are Hambantota, Monaragala & Puttalam while Badulla, Batticaloa & Ratnapura, districts are also affected. According to official statistics, 354,000 families are suffering from the devastating drought that prevails in the country. This totals around 1,770,000 persons about 10% of the total population of Sri Lanka. Current Situation Many in the drought stricken areas barely have one meal a day resulting in increased malnutrition rates and illness. Should this situation continue, thousands of people will soon face starvation. Two NCC/SL of our staff members carried out an assessment mission, meeting the drought victims as well as the priests and government agents in the area. Impact on Human lives Due to the drought, people have insufficient water even for drinking let alone cooking, washing, sanitation facilities, cultivation etc. This situation has lead to transporting drinking water in bowzers and bottled water from other areas. Hardy crops such as coconut plantations, in the Weeraketiya area, have been completely destroyed due to lack of water. Since most agricultural crops have been destroyed, people have lost their basic means of income and employment. People have been unable to cultivate for almost four main cultivating seasons which has caused many difficulties. The drought has not only severely undermined the livelihood of the people but has brought it now to a stage where it could lead to possible outbreaks of diarrhoea and cholera. Water supplies from outside sources transported in bowsers intensifies this problem as this water is not purified. The NCCSL, through its churches situated in the Hambantota district, has already embarked on providing dry rations to affected families and facilitated the supply of water from bowsers in some villages. Details see below. PROJECT AMOUNT (Rs.) IMPLEMENTED THROUGH NATURE OF WORK 41/01 35,000 NCC Staff Welfare Society Drought Relief 44/01 35,000 Methodist Church DSR Drought Relief 45/01 200,000 Bishop of Colombo Drought Relief 46/01 20,000 Methodist Church, Colombo South Drought Relief Circuit Sri Lanka Drought Relief & Rehab. 5 Appeal No. ASSL12 Locations for the Proposed Response DISTRICT SECRETARIAT SELECTED Distance Closest Distance DIVISION VILLAGE from town from the Hambantota closest Town (km) town Hambantota Hambantota Katanwewa 20 Hambantota 20 Hambantota Hambantota Bundala 16 Hambantota 16 Hambantota Hambantota Bellagaswewa 06 Hambantota 06 Hambantota Weeraketiya Kemegala 40 Tangalle 20 Hambantota Weeraketiya Wekedawala 45 Tangalle 25 North Three villages in the Hambantota Secretariat Division and 2 villages in the Weeraketiya Secretariat Division have been selected, all situated in the Hambantota district. They are approximately 10km from each other. The villages have been selected for the following reasons: Ø Large scale relief assistance has not reached these villages. Ø The villages are situated in remote areas, therefore access is difficult. Ø Since these villages are small in proportion very often they tend to be left out in the overall large scale programmes. Ø The churches have access to these villages through their relationship with the Temple. Ø Since they are small in proportion they are of a handle able size with regards to the resources available in the local churches and the NCCSL. IV. GOAL & OBJECTIVES The overall goal of the programme is to alleviate the suffering caused by the drought in selected villages where relief does not easily flow and to empower the most vulnerable to regain their self sufficiency. Objectives § Provide Immediate Food Relief. § To empower those affected to re-cultivate their land once the drought ends. § Create awareness on the causes of drought and encourage tree planting in villages. V. TARGETED BENEFICIARIES NCC/SL has earmarked the following villages in the Hambantota District for assistance, covering the total population as all are affected. SELECTED NO. FAMILIES POPULATION IN NO.OF CHILDREN VILLAGE AFFECTED EACH VILLAGE (Under 15 Years) Katanwewa 148 650 120 Bundala 98 545 100 Sri Lanka Drought Relief & Rehab. 6 Appeal No. ASSL12 Bellagaswewa 106 648 75 Kemegala 164 680 91 Wekedawala 135 650 48 North TOTAL 651 3173 434 Criteria used for beneficiary selection Almost all of the above families are engaged in farming. They are mainly small-scale farmers cultivating on land given on permit and some who work for daily wage in bigger agricultural lands. These families were selected because they have lost all means of livelihood and overall relief has not reached these areas for reasons mentioned earlier. These villages were identified through the Government Agents, Grama Sevaka (Village Helper), Churches etc. Number of villages selected for relief assistance = 5 Total Number of families residing in the selected villages = 651 Total Number of beneficiaries = 3173 VI. PROPOSED EMERGENCY ASSISTANCE & IMPLEMENTATION CRISIS PHASE ASSISTANCE Distribution of food commodities Essential dry rations such as rice, flour, sugar, dhal, milk powder etc. amounting to Rs.1,000/= will be provided for 651 selected families (the entire family including men, women & children) for three continuous months (from November 2001 to January 2002).

  • ICRC Sri Lanka COVID-19 Response: 2020
    ANNUAL ROUND-UP 2020 ICRC SRI LANKA COVID-19 RESPONSE MESSAGE FROM THE REGIONAL DIRECTOR In a year marked by the COVID-19 pandemic and its dire consequences for health care, economies and the well-being of populations around the world, I would like to share with you the contribution that the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) teams made in several critically affected countries in Asia and the Pacific during 2020. The efforts were aimed at supporting communities and the authorities in trying to prevent, control and manage the effects of COVID-19 on the most vulnerable. Though we have stepped into 2021, the pandemic is far from over. With the second and third waves striking many nations across the world, countries continue to rely on restrictive measures and lockdowns to mitigate the effects of the pandemic. As I write this, more than two million people have lost their lives to COVID-19 worldwide and the confirmed cases have surpassed 97 million. Of these, 14.5 million confirmed cases and more than 228,000 deaths have been reported from Asia and the Pacific. At the same time, there is a glimmer of hope in the vaccination campaigns that have unrolled in many countries. We are advocating to ensure that people affected by conflict and violence, who might otherwise be forced to the back of the queue, have an equitable access to the vaccine. Similarly, other marginalized communities like the internally displaced people, migrants, asylum seekers and detainees must be taken along in this journey towards immunization. The ICRC, together with our National Red Cross and Red Crescent Society partners, is ready to support national vaccination campaigns and facilitate access to the COVID-19 vaccine for those in difficult-to-reach vulnerable and marginalised populations in countries affected by armed conflict and violence.
