Nevertheless, humanitarian challenges will continue in pocket areas in the northeastern and southeastern parts of the country where the seasonal rainfall performance was poor. Moreover, food security will likely continue to deteriorate in areas affected by various hazards during the latter half of 2014. An estimated 2.9 million relief food beneficiaries are identified to require emergency relief food assistance in 2015. Additionally, an estimated 381,000 people may be in need of food assistance in the coming belg season, subject to verification at the mid-year review. The total gross emergency food and non-food requirement for 2015 amounts to USD 386 million. Considering available resources amounting to USD 41 million, the net total requirement stands at USD 344 million. The net food and TSF requirement totals to 353,269.78 MT, estimated to cost around 277 million. In addition, a total of net USD 67.9 million is required to respond to the non-food needs of identified beneficiaries in the health and nutrition, WASH, agriculture and education sectors.

INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUND 1.1. 2015 Annual Humanitarian Requirements Document The humanitarian needs projections in this document are based on the findings of the 2014 multi- sector and multi-agency meher assessment and on secondary data analysis. Close to 200 experts from Government, UN, donors and NGOs took part in the three-week meher assessment. The annual belg assessment will act as a mid-year review, at which point a review of the context analysis and the beneficiary figures will be conducted. The annual HRD is in line with the Government’s DRM policy focusing on baseline information, monitoring tools, and preparedness using regular Early Warning, monitoring and satellite imagery analysis such as the Livelihood Early Assessment and Protection (LEAP), the Livelihood Impact Analysis and Seasonality (LIAS) and the Woreda Disaster Risk Profiling (WDRP). The annual HRD and its release aims to facilitate resource mobilization and to enable earlier pre-positioning of essential items in strategic stores at federal and regional levels allowing a swift response to sudden onset emergencies. 1.2.
