Harnessing Civil Registration and Vital Statistics (CRVS) Systems in Conflict, Emergencies, and Fragile Settings OVERVIEW INTRODUCTION last on policymakers’ list of priorities, which puts the information and rights of entire generations at The first two decades of the 21st century saw a risk. For example, in a case where a Syrian couple significant increase in crises and emergencies lacks a marriage registration, the husband’s death due to conflict, climate, and disease. Today, in the conflict and the pregnant wife’s flight would as we continue to experience the COVID-19 prevent the woman from registering the children pandemic, no country or statistical system has born of that marriage with Syrian authorities. In been left untouched. Despite the hardships, life many contexts like this, a single mother cannot in conflict, emergency, and fragile situations goes register the child or transmit her nationality, which on – people are born, marry, divorce, and die. In bars the child from acquiring their nationality later, these contexts, civil registration and identification further complicating their potential return to Syria. are vitally important, even as significant strains are placed on these systems.

This would prevent people real risk of disappearance. Even in less drastic from accessing basic services guaranteed by circumstances, records are at risk of disappearing fundamental rights – the right to an identity, if a natural disaster occurs, making it difficult the right to a name, and so on. Access to these to account for deaths and to mitigate the services is critical; people rely on them for consequences of these disasters. In all these everything from humanitarian aid to health care, situations, it is critical that governments have education, and job training. robust disaster risk reduction plans in place that protect civil registration records. Protecting CRVS Conflicts and natural disasters pose a risk for the systems must be part of each country’s climate wholesale destruction of identification archives, change mitigation and adaptation plans to ensure such as Côte d’Ivoire experienced during its civil that natural disasters do not leave multiple war.1 This risk is compounded by the fact that in generations without access to rights and services. these crisis situations, CRVS systems are often 1 World Bank. 2016.

    FIJI METEOROLOGICAL SERVICE GOVERNMENT OF REPUBLIC OF FIJI MEDIA RELEASE No. 53 5pm, Tuesday, 14 January, 2020 HEAVY RAIN ALERT NOW IN FORCE FOR PARTS OF THE FIJI GROUP In anticipation of tropical disturbance TD04F, a “Heavy Rain Alert” has been issued at 9am today and remains in force for western half of Vanua Levu, Yasawa and Mamanuca Group and the western half of Viti Levu. At 3pm today, tropical disturbance TD04F was analysed approximately 1180 kilometres west- northwest of Nadi or 410 kilometres north-northwest of Port Vila, the capital of Vanuatu. TD04F is slow moving and is anticipated to make a southeast movement. The potential for this system to develop into a tropical cyclone is moderate to high in the next 24 hours and high in the next 48 hours. TD04F is expected to continue intensifying and become a Tropical Cyclone later tomorrow. Once named, it will be called Tropical Cyclone TINO. The system is anticipated to enter Fiji Waters on Friday. As the system moves closer towards the group, the onset of gale to destructive force winds is expected as early as Thursday night especially over the Yasawa and Mamanuca group, Viti Levu, Vanua Levu, Taveuni and nearby smaller islands. Coastal inundation from sea flooding may also be expected over the above mentioned areas and other parts of Fiji both from the contribution of storm surge and wind driven waves. Members of the public are advised to remain alert and vigilant. Take warnings and advisories from relevant authorities seriously when issued and remain prepared at all times.
