BACKGROUND 1.1. Context Madagascar is a country particularly exposed to high impact weather phenomena and with each southern summer (November to April), the Big Island is regularly affected by intense rainy episodes, as well as an impressive stormy and electrical activity. Madagascar is also one of the countries most impacted by cyclones in the world. This year, in January 2020 Madagascar’s West Coast has been struck by a large and long-lasting tropical depression characterized by heavy rains of up to 100 litres per m² within one hour, ssince the beginning of January 2020. In December 2019 the same area was affected, as cyclone Belna made landfall in the regions of Boeny and Melaky, which influences the situation and creates thus a complex disaster The floods have caused massive damage and death and the government of Madagascar on 25th January 2020, declared the floods a national emergency. The Government of Madagascar launched an appeal on January 24th to all national actors and international partners, to call for assistance to support emergency aid activities, early recovery, rehabilitation and reconstruction. The heavy rain and floods have resulted in road cuts, ruptured dikes and landslides were observed in the regions of Madagascar´s West Coast (Sofia, Alaotra Mangoro, Boeny, Betsiboka, Melaky, Analamanga and Diana). According to Relief web (05 Feb 2020) and the first rapid assessment drawn up by Madagascar National Office for Risk and Disaster Management (BNGRC) at least 16,031 persons are displaced, 9 are missing and 31 persons are confirmed to have lost their lives . These figures are further to rise, as especially the remote areas with difficult access have not been able to voice their needs and losses. Between February 4th to 9th a multi sectoral assessment will be conducted by BNGRC and this assessment will provide more detailed information. Before this, the two requesting ACT members have collected information through their volunteers and local churches using a data/information sheet developed by National Disaster Authority and other respective authorities. In the long term, at least 106,846 persons will be affected negatively by the extreme flooding. The report also confirms that 67 public schools have been completely destroyed, 28 publics schools partially destroyed and 18 schools are currently being used as evacuation centers. The requesting ACT Forum members plans to target areas not served by other stakeholders and the forum volunteers have been collecting data through local churches using a standard format jointly developed with Madagascar National Disaster Authority, even though access to information in the most remote areas remains hampered. 1.2. Needs In Madagascar, the immediate effects of flooding include the loss of human life, extensive damage to property, destruction of crops, loss of livestock, and deterioration of health conditions owing to waterborne diseases. Communication lines in affected areas have been cut off since roads and bridges are also damaged and normal travel is disrupted. Economic activities have also been disrupted especially for displaced persons and normal life is disrupted. Water contamination threatens seriously the health status of the population, especially of the most vulnerable. Malaria and Dengue fever caused by mosquitos breeding in now stagnant water areas add to their vulnerability. Apart
