Situation Report 11: Nepal Earthquake Emergency Response 06.08.2015
Situation Report 11: Nepal Earthquake Emergency Response 06.08.2015 Hundred and four Tool Kits Distribution at Haibung VDC benefiting 722 families. A porter rests after 5 hours long walk from the road head in The tool kit contains 14 items useful for the demolition of damaged houses Listi of Listikot VDC, from where distribution of sanitation materials will take place on Friday, 7th of August HIGHLIGHTS Overview of the Situation: Three months have passed since a devastating earthquake hit Nepal that was followed by another quake on 12 May. Medair and Mission East have been working hard to bring aid to the affected communities in Sindupalchowk District and the Relief Phase is now coming to an end. To reach communities who are not accessible by road, we have needed to utilize innovative aid delivery methods, such as the deployment of porters, as even air lifting is not always reliable due to unpredictable weather conditions. Politically, the government of Nepal is finalizing the process of drafting a new constitution. Regularly we are confronted with activists protesting in the streets of Kathmandu. The protests have not hindered any of our distributions. Situation Overview of Shelter and Water Relief Items: Last week we managed to start our activities in Listikot, one of the last remaining VDCs to finalize our distributions. Over 110 ho useholds have been served so far, and with the deployment of porters who will carry the items up hill (more than 17,500 kg) we hope to be able to finish distributions to a total of 1240 households this week. -

WASH Cluster Nepal 4W - May 12Th 2015
WASH Cluster Nepal 4W - May 12th 2015 Please find following the analysis of the 4W data – May 12th Introduction (Round 2) This is the second round of the 4W analysis. As this is the second round and still early in the emergency response, many agencies are still planning their interventions and caseloads, hence much of the data is understandably incomplete. In the coming week/s we will receive far more comprehensive partner data and will be able to show realistic gaps. In addition, we are receiving better affected population data and there are many ongoing assessments, the results of which will help us to understand both the response data and the affected population data and enable us to deliver a far more profound analysis of the WASH response. Please assist us as we have a lot of information gaps in the data provided so far and hence the maps are not yet providing a true picture of the response. We would like to quickly move to VDC mapping including planned/reached beneficiaries. Since the first round of reporting, agencies have provided substantially more VDC‐level data – as of today, of 740 WASH activities identified, 546 of these (74%) are matched to an identified VDC ‐ this is a big improvement from last week (which had VDC data for 192 of 445 activities, or 43%) The Highlights ・ 47 Organisations – number of organisations that reported in Round 1 and/or Round 2 of the WASH 4W ・ 206 VDCs – where WASH interventions taking place/planned (in 15 districts) 4W – WASH May 12th 2015 Water0B Spread of water activities ‐ targeted Temporary -
2015 Nepal Earthquake Response Project Putting Older People First
2015 Nepal Earthquake Response Project PUTTING OLDER PEOPLE FIRST A Special newsletter produced by HelpAge to mark the first four months of the April 2015 Earthquake CONTENTS Message from the Regional Director Editorial 1. HelpAge International in Nepal - 2015 Nepal Earthquake 1-4 Response Project (i) Unconditional Cash Transfers (UCTs) (ii) Health Interventions (iii) Inclusion- Protection Programme 2. Confidence Re-Born 5 3. Reflections from the Field 6 4. Humanitarian stakeholders working for Older People and 7-8 Persons with Disabilities in earthquake-affected districts 5. A Special Appeal to Humanitarian Agencies 9-11 Message from the Regional Director It is my great pleasure to contribute a few words to this HelpAge International Nepal e-newsletter being published to mark the four-month anniversary of the earthquake of 25 April, 2015, focusing on ‘Putting Older People First in a Humanitarian Response’. Of the eight million people in the 14 most earthquake-affected districts1, an estimated 650,000 are Older People over 60 years of age2, and are among the most at risk population in immediate need of humanitarian assistance. When factoring-in long-standing social, cultural and gender inequalities, the level of vulnerability is even higher among the 163,043 earthquake-affected older women3. In response to the earthquake, HelpAge, in collaboration with the government and in partnership with local NGOs, is implementing cash transfers, transitional shelter, health and inclusion-protection activities targeting affected Older People and their families. Furthermore, an Age and Disability Task Force-Nepal (ADTF-N)4 has been formed to highlight the specific needs and vulnerabilities of Older People and Persons with Disabilities and to put them at the centre of the earthquake recovery, rehabilitation and reconstruction efforts. -

Situation Report #13: Earthquake Emergency Response 08.10.2015 A beneficiary carrying High density Polyethylene (HDPE) pipe A team of Cash-for-Work laborers clear the debris of a demolished home in Gati for the rehabilitation of damaged community drinking water VDC. The damaged home was safely demolished under the technical supervision supply system at Listikot VDC. © Mission East of project partner, Disaster Waste Recovery. © Medair / Tanja Kisslinger HIGHLIGHTS Overview of the Situation: Five months have passed since two significant earthquakes hit Nepal. Medair and Mission East have been working hard to bring aid to the affected communities in Sindupalchowk District and are now transitioning from Relief to Recovery and Reconstruction. Recovery and Reconstruction will build upon the Relief phase by further reducing morbidity and safeguarding the survival of vulnerable households. Notably, to reach communities who are not accessible by road, we have continued to use innovative aid delivery methods, such as porters and helicopters. But monsoon rain, landslides, protests, and strikes (“bandh”) have continued to affect our movements in/through Kathmandu and surrounding areas this month. In fact, on 20th September, after 7 years of negotiation, Nepal finally promulgated a new constitution. This event was marked by both public jubilation and subsequent strike/social unrest in the Tarai (the southern plains adjoining India). The unrest has occurred in relation to minority groups in the Tarai and the Indian Government being dissatisfied with some of the provisions in the constitution (e.g. delineation of federal units and electoral constituencies). Specifically, an unofficial blockade was imposed on the Indian side of the border, which limits the import of essential goods from India and has caused a nationwide shortage of fuel. -
