Summary of Activities United Nations Maldives Summary of Activities JUNE 2006 UNDP Maldives Recovery Programme Recovery Programme Overview Working with the people of Maldives to ‘build back better’ Maldives When the tsunami struck the Asia-Pacific region in December 2004, the Maldives was among the most-affected countries. Waves up to four metres washed over the low-lying island nation. Homes, basic infrastructure, and livelihoods were swept away by floodwaters. In this island nation of 290,000, everyone was touched by the disaster. The tsunami’s impact on the Maldivian economy was enormous, with a direct loss equivalent to more than 60 percent of gross domestic product (GDP). Tourism, fisheries, and agriculture, which together comprise more than half of GDP, were among the hardest hit. Tourist numbers declined; fishermen lost their boats, and women their home-based fish processing businesses; and island farmers lost their harvest due to salt water contamination of agricultural land. As a result, government revenues declined and Maldivian livelihoods were threatened. Once the immediate relief needs were met, UNDP joined the national effort towards long-term recovery, focusing on five key areas of support. Restoration of Livelihoods Providing communities with tools to rebuild Shelter Response and homes, repair fishing vessels, and restart Recovery crop production; supporting cash-for-work Assisting affected families repair initiatives to generate income for villagers and rebuild safer homes, mobilising recovering from the tsunami; and providing communities to plan and participate micro credits to assist people to restart small in reconstruction efforts, and family businesses enhancing skills and capacities of local people and institutions Disaster Risk Management Working with the government to strengthen institutional and legal systems for disaster risk management, carry out Aid Coordination and multi-hazard disaster preparedness planning and mitigation activities, as well Resource Management as training and capacity building Improving coordination of aid activities; strengthening and streamlining resource management; improving transparency and accountability of the Restoration of Critical Infrastructure government; and improving partnership Supporting the government in the rehabilitation building with the external community and repair of island harbours, in order that island economies can be revitalised UNDP Support through the Recovery Programme Prior to the tsunami, UNDP was tsunami, UNDP embarked on a would be built more strongly, new already collaborating with the comprehensive programme of harbours would be better people and government of Mal- post-tsunami recovery. designed, island people and dives in the areas of democratic government would be better UNDP’s recovery programme is a governance, pro-poor policies and prepared for any future disaster, five-pronged response to help the environmental protection.

Houses June 2006 UNDP Maldives Regular Programme Overview Supporting the future of the Maldives Maldives The Maldives had a number of remarkable development achievements by 2004. Before the tragic tsunami that swept across the island chain on 26 December 2004, less than one percent of the population lived on a dollar a day. Net enrolment ratio in primary schools was near 100 per cent. Literacy rates were above 98 per cent. Maldivian girls outnumbered boys in lower secondary education. Prevalence of HIV/AIDS was very low and malaria had been eradicated. Use of solid fuels was declining and access to safe water was improving. Maldivians were recognized internationally as strong advocates for global environmental protection. The damage and devastation caused by the tsunami has put many of these achievements at risk. However, the people of this country have been strong and resilient, and have been determined to work together to regain the nation’s development momentum. UNDP’s activities in the Maldives are geared towards supporting the Government achieve the Millennium Development Goals and to help people build a better life for themselves. In the current climate of post-tsunami recovery and political reform, UNDP’s regular (non-tsunami) programmes in the areas of poverty reduction, democratic governance, and environment & energy are more relevant than ever. UNDP Country Programme The overall programme goal for all United Nations agencies in the Maldives is the balanced and equitable development of the Maldives through reduction in disparities. UNDP’s regular programme, which is based on the Country Programme for Maldives 2003-2007—formulated prior to the tsunami—has three overriding objectives: • to fight poverty by consolidating, extending and mainstreaming the experience in decentralized development planning achieved in the Atolls Development for Sustainable Livelihoods programme; • to strengthen the Government’s capacity to monitor and track its poverty alleviation programme; and • to provide strategic policy initiatives to support the Government’s short-, medium- and long- term policy formulation on development management. UNDP supports four thematic areas in the Maldives, each of which includes several projects. These are: • poverty reduction • democratic governance • environment and energy • tsunami recovery Several cross-cutting themes run through UNDP’s projects, including (a) community empowerment, a centrepiece of UNDP’s recovery strategy and regular programming; (b) good governance; (c) sustainable livelihoods and economic development; and (d) protection of the environment.
