Despite Sierra Leone’s limited absorption capacity, the Government of Sierra Leone (GoSL) has ensured that refugees are accommodated in camps and urged the relocation of refugees from border areas.

3 YEAR IN REVIEW II. YEAR IN REVIEW CHANGES IN THE HUMANITARIAN SITUATION:

In 2002… “Safe and unhindered access has enabled humanitarian agencies to provide assistance throughout the country. However, coverage remains imbalanced Peace enabled over 250,000 displaced between chiefdoms” Sierra Leoneans to return home Kanja Sesay, Commissioner NaCSA for the first time in years The significant progress in the consolidation of peace in Sierra Leone during 2002 opened up greater opportunities for humanitarian action, especially in assisting tens of thousands of displaced persons and refugees to return home and to begin rebuilding their lives.

In January, following the completion of the disarmament programme, the civil war in Sierra Leone was declared over. United Nations Peace-keeping Mission in Sierra Leone (UNAMSIL), the Republic of Sierra Leone Armed Forces (RSLAF) and Sierra Leone Police (SLP) progressively deployed in all districts, including border areas. Many government officials and civil servants returned to their provincial and district posts. These achievements enabled the National Yet 35,000 more Liberians fled civil war in Resettlement Assessment Committee to Liberia to seek asylum in Sierra Leone declare over 99% of chiefdoms in Sierra Leone ‘safe for resettlement’ according to agreed criteria. As a result over 150,000 IDPs and 100,000 returnees were resettled in their home areas.

The stability along the western Sierra Leone – Guinea border permitted the two countries to reach an agreement to facilitate the overland repatriation of some 13,800 Sierra Leonean refugees from Guinea.

As the situation in Sierra Leone stabilised, the situation in Liberia continued to deteriorate. This led to an influx of over 35,000 new Liberian Refugees and the return of over 32,000 Sierra Leonean refugees. While extending its hospitality to the Liberian refugees, the Sierra Leone Government nevertheless expressed its concern about the infiltration of Liberian dissidents and combatants within the refugee population and their potential for destabilising the country.

HUMANITARIAN & THE SITUATION IN SIERRA LEONE RECOVERY CONTEXT Political: The Presidential and Parliamentary elections held in 2002 were the first violence- free elections held in Sierra Leone since independence, demonstrating the Consolidating peace and security … overwhelming desire and determination of the people to secure peace and stability. Over 2.3 million Sierra Leoneans registered to vote and over 1.8 million went to the polls on Election Day. The ruling Sierra Leone People’s Party (SLPP) won over 70% of the ballots, gaining 83% of seats in Parliament. It will be a major challenge for the government to ensure political inclusion and the participation of all actors in the political process. Most importantly, the government must ensure that it delivers the dividends of peace that it promised including improved

living conditions.

Security: The capacity of the Sierra Leone

The current total police strength is 6,500 (68% of the 9,500 planning figure for 2004). Both security organs are dependent on the presence of UNAMSIL and British support to provide security within and along the borders. It is expected that UNAMSIL troops will gradually draw down from its current 17,500 strength depending on the prevailing situation. The deteriorating situation in Liberia calls for increased patrolling along the border and the prevention of cross-border raids as well as strengthening of the capacity to screen incoming refugees and ensure that combatants are identified and adequately dealt with. To address sub-regional instability,

the governments of the Mano River Union (MRU) states have been meeting in an effort to reduce tensions. It is hoped that a political process led by the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) will facilitate peaceful sub-regional solutions.

Economic: The economy continued to recover thanks to improvements in the security situation, increasing consumer and investor confidence, reduction in barriers to domestic mobility and trade, stepped-up resettlement and rehabilitation activities, increase in agricultural output and expansion

Initiative “decision point” which pro vides interim debt relief. This relief would be made permanent should Sierra Leone continue to perform well under its International Monetary Fund (IMF) Poverty Reduction Growth Facility Programme over the next couple of years. With enhanced HIPC assistance, Sierra Leone’s debt service to export ratio would drop from 74% in 2002 to 5% in 2005. Debt savings would amount to about US$ 37 million per annum during 2002-2005. These favourable developments notwithstanding, the overall economic situation remains fragile and dependent on continued stability and security.

Human Rights: The ongoing peace-building efforts are creating an environment “The newfound peace and successful conducive to the protection and promotion of elections has brought a stabilized human rights. However, the long institutional situation in Sierra Leone, which may lack of respect for human rights as well as tempt the international community the devastating effect the war produced on to withdraw prematurely.

No cases of serious violations of human rights and grave breaches of international humanitarian law have been reported in 2002. The systematic and impartial administration of justice in the provinces and pre-trial detention are challenges to the rule of law that need urgent attention. Considerable progress has been made in preparing for the establishment of accountability mechanisms namely the Special Court and the Truth and

Reconciliation Commission. These initiatives may cause tensions in communities and “The promotion of sustainable livelihoods hamper reintegration and reconciliation is a mean for consolidating security and efforts. rebuilding communities.”

Best Case Scenario: Unlikely

The capacity of the SLP and the RSLAF is rapidly augmented to sufficiently maintain security within Sierra Leone and along its border regions and as a result UNAMSIL troops can withdraw earlier than expected; state authority is consolidated and is able to deliver high quality social and judiciary services throughout the country; all ex- combatants are successfully reintegrated; the resettlement of all IDPs, returnees and refugees is Worst Case Scenario: Unlikely completed; illicit mining and smuggling of Serious dissatisfaction with the government leads diamonds stops; the TRC/Special Court to riots or a coup attempt; indictments or processes are implemented without incident; judgments handed by the Special Court lead to donor funding and disbursement grows rapidly; violent reactions; the SLP and RSLAF are unable the economy achieves double-digit growth; the to maintain security and UNAMSIL forces have to situation in Liberia improves significantly; be reinforced; the fighting in Liberia further elections in Guinea are free and fair intensifies and spills over to Sierra Leone with the

There is a large measure of stability across the country but the SLP and RSLAF remain dependent on UNAMSIL to maintain security along the border and respond to sporadic domestic disturbances; state authority is further extended but services are limited especially in remote areas; some dissatisfaction of civil society especially among youth over the modest progress towards achieving the dividends of peace promised during the elections; resettlement is largely completed, but land, housing and mining disputes in areas of return and the reluctance of some ex-combatants to return home impedes the

11 HUMANITARIAN & RECOVERY CONTEXT STRATEGIC GOALS & PRIORITIES

In order to promote peace, stability and progress our relief and recovery interventions aim:

1. To promote the voluntary repatriation of Sierra Leonean refugees in safety and dignity.

2. To ensure protection and services for Liberian refugees and other potential displaced populations in a manner that addresses the impact on the host community and ensures a peaceful co-existence.

3. To contribute to the rebuilding of viable and peaceful communities through the facilitation of community based reintegration and reconciliation of IDPs, returnees, ex-combatants and separated children in home communities.

4. To target identified vulnerable groups, especially malnourished children, pregnant and nursing women and the disabled.

5. To improve access to and quality of the provision of basic social services, especially in the health, education, water and sanitation, shelter and food sectors.

6. To contribute to the restoration of household food security and livelihoods to ensure people’s “right to food” through the stimulation of agricultural production and the rural economy.

7. To support the restoration of state services throughout the country in order to ensure that communities and citizens are afforded equal access to administrative and legal facilities.

8. To raise awareness and mitigate the spread of HIV/AIDS.

9. To build and sustain a culture of human rights in Sierra Leone.

ENSURING PROTECTION & IV. EMERGENCY RELIEF SERVICES FOR LIBERIAN RESPONSE PLAN REFUGEES AND HOST COMMUNITIES

This section of the Appeal sets out the Analysis of needs priorities and requirements for emergency support of In September 2002, some 60,000 Liberian refugees were seeking asylum in Sierra Leone. Of the total 8,200 arrived during the 1990’s and are residing in the urban centres of Kenema, Bo and Freetown. There are currently 37,000 refugees accommodated in six refugee camps in Kenema, Moyamba and Bo districts. An estimated 13,600 are residing in border areas in Kailahun and Pujehun and are in the process of being relocated to camps away from the border as per security and assistance criteria. Of the total Liberian refugees 54% are women, 55% are under the age of 18 and 11% are under-five. By end 2002, it is expected that the number of refugees in camps will increase to 50,000. With the potential for further deterioration of the Liberian refugees, situation in Liberia it is expected that the outflow of refugees will continue at a steady but low rate. Contingency plans have been put in place to address the needs of up to 125,000 refugees. The planning figure for refugees in the country during 2003 anticipates an increase from 75,000 in January 2003 to some 140,000 in December 2003 with up to 100,000 of these accommodated in camps.

Despite Sierra Leone’s already strained absorption capacity as a refugee hosting country, the Government appears committed to granting asylum to new Liberian refugees and upholding its obligations under international conventions

and law. It is envisaged that the current position Repatriating and resettling populations of the GoSL with regard to the provision of land for refugee sites and mediation with local communities through NaCSA will remain positive. The Government also continues to advocate for the relocation of refugees away from border areas to official UNHCR camps in the interior. However, evident tensions with host communities, who perceive Liberians as agents of the outbreak of civil war in Sierra Leone and a continuing threat, need to be addressed. The need to separate combatants from civilian refugees, and thus preserve the civilian nature of asylum, is paramount and needs to be addressed by the government of Sierra Leone and its partners. Vulnerable populations and people at risk in Sierra Leone

If supported with transport of refugees from sensitive border basic seeds, equipment, tools, and facilities, areas to camps refugee women and girls could engage in simple food production, processing and marketing. A look at refugee livelihoods: Liberian refugees have limited food and income- generating opportunities and are currently heavily reliant on relief items to meet their basic needs. This has reduced the ability of families to provide basic care to their members as relief items alone cannot adequately meet their requirements. Women and young girls are particularly vulnerable because they play a leading role in providing food for the family. Food rations are allocated with the assumption that these will be supplemented with other inputs but the lack of availability of these inputs as well as limited livelihood opportunities predispose women to sexual exploitation and abuse. The presence of refugees is adding pressure to marketed surplus and consequently food availability to local households. In fact, in Adequate shelter, water and sanitation services refugee hosting areas, admission rates at are essential needs for survival. Recently, Therapeutic and Supplementary Feeding Centers overcrowding in camps compounded by are higher than average, and rose to 500 and inadequate health and sanitation services directly 2,500 children respectively. affected morbidity and mortality rates.

School aged children account for 44% of camp population, therefore primary and secondary level education will be required to ensure that children are granted their right to education. Rapid response education programmes in accordance with the standard Liberian Curriculum will be required. Teachers are also amongst the refugee population and should be considered as resources.

Wood is currently the main source of domestic fuel in Liberian refugee camps. Surveys reveal that 17% of income earned by impoverished refugee households is gained through wood cutting and selling. In the long term, these activities will place pressure on local timber resources and have a negative impact on the environment. Some refugees have basic artisan skills, such as blacksmithing, that are useful to the community. Harnessing these skills and

Main Activities Some 100 women groups within the farming community will be assisted in each camp. The groups will be trained in agricultural and soil improvement practices. Rice seed, 40 MTs; groundnut seed, 32 MTs; vegetable seed kits, 32,000; sets of hand tools, 800 will be distributed. The project will construct a processing centre in each camp and provide simple equipment: one medium-size rice mill and one cassava grater. One agricultural tool production and training centre will be established in each camp. Ten trainees nominated by women’s groups will be trained in blacksmithing, welding, tinsmithing, and maintenance of small farm tools every three-month period. The centres will also produce tools and offer repair services to the camp and community. Each camp will be sensitised on environmental concerns and will be trained to construct and use cheap, energy-saving technologies such as eco- stoves. They will be mobilised to plant approximately 80,000 fast growing trees to protect soil in areas worst affected by woodcutting.

Expected Outcome A minimum of 340 MTs of milled rice will be produced. 210 MTs of shelled groundnut and 640 ha of vegetables will be cultivated for consumption and sale in community markets. Improved storage and processing will increase shelf life of perishable foods and reduce storage losses. The project activities will increase household income, household food availability and improve nutrition. Children, pregnant and lactating mothers will benefit most. A minimum of 3,200 refugee households will adopt energy saving eco-stoves. Appropriate trees will be planted on degraded soil, which will then be protected from erosion. 320 artisans will be trained to improve the level of tool production and maintenance services in the communities. This activity will further contribute to post war rehabilitation of community artisans.

Partners, Coordination Mechanisms and Relationship to other projects The project will be implemented in close collaboration with UNHCR, NGOs and Ministry of Agriculture and Food Security (MAFS). The FAO’s ongoing blacksmith rehabilitation project will provide technical support for this project. Activities will be coordinated through the camp management committee.

Targeted Beneficiaries 12 000 vulnerable farm families: 8,000 returnees and 4,000 host community members 40% female, 30% male, and 30% children Districts Kailahun, Kono, Kambia, Bombali, Koinadugu Implementing Partners Ministry of Agriculture and Food Security and NGOs (LWF, Africare, CRS, CES, Caritas, ACF and World Vision) Project Duration March – October 2003 Funds Requested US$ 740,000

Main activities: 8,000 returnee families and 4,000 host community families, in all major areas of return, will be provided with 40kgs of rice seeds, 20kgs of groundnut, one kit of assorted vegetable seeds, and one set of hand tools (hoe and cutlass). The seeds provided will enable each farm family to cultivate a minimum area of one hectare. The availability of appropriate agricultural inputs will be assessed and local suppliers will be selected to provide the inputs required. The capacity of farmers will be strengthened through training on basic agronomic practices. The training will be conducted immediately after input distribution to the farmers. Monitoring and supervision of project activities will ensure that standards are maintained. The project will be implemented in collaboration with partners operating in the respective areas of return. A crop survey and impact assessment will also be conducted to determine farmers’ production levels and the impact of the project on food security.

Expected outcome: 12,000 vulnerable farm families (returnee and host community); will be provided with essential agricultural inputs. The inputs provided will enable each participating family to cultivate at least one ha of land, resulting in a potential 12,000 ha of land being brought under productive cultivation. The production of 4,924 MTs of milled rice and 2,400 MTs of groundnut will ensure an increase in the availability of staple foods in the project areas, and hence will improve food security. The milled rice will be sufficient to feed more than 60% of the vulnerable farm families throughout the year.

Partners and coordination mechanisms: FAO plays a leading role in the coordination of all emergency agricultural activities. The Organisation collaborates closely with the MoA and Food Security, UN agencies, international and national NGOs, and Community-based Organisations (CBOs). A coordination mechanism exists through the National Agriculture Committee and the database of the coordination unit. The database contains the operational areas, and activities of all the stakeholders in the sector. FAO’s support will fill the gaps, which will not be filled by the resources available to NGOs. Support to overall strategy and relationship to other projects The project implementation will be in line with the country’s strategy, which aims to free its population from hunger by 2007. Stakeholders including UN agencies and NGOs will be fully involved to ensure consistency of approaches and avoid activity duplication. The project will build on FAO experience over the last three years and compliment achievements made in similar projects implemented during the period.

Project Duration January – December 2003 Funds Requested US$ 320,000

Main activities: Emergency support will be provided to 1,000 farmers for the production of quality seed rice, covering an area of 800 ha (550 ha in upland areas, 250 ha in lowland areas). 2,000 farmers will be trained in quality seed production methods. Seed fairs, where neighbouring farmers from each growing area can exchange seeds with each other, will be promoted. Seed processing facilities and quality control laboratories at Rokupr Rice Research Station (RRS) and at the Seed Multiplication Project (SMP) will also be rehabilitated. Development of 75 ha of lowland areas, involving improvement of soils, water management, and rehabilitation of small-scale irrigation will be implemented.

Expected outcome: 1,000 farm families will benefit directly from technical guidance and training in seed production. Reliable sources of good quality seed will be available for further multiplication and contribution. A minimum of 2,000 MTs of seed will be produced. This will seed 40,000 ha for the following cropping season. The capacity of RRS and SMP will be improved to meet their mandate of producing good quality seed for Sierra Leonean farmers.

Targeted Beneficiaries Direct: 10,000 beneficiaries belonging to 400 women’s groups Indirect: 80,000 household members Districts Kambia, Kono, Kailahun, Bombali, Koinadugu, Tonkolili, Kenema, Portloko, and Moyamba Implementing Partners NGOs and Ministry of Agriculture and Food Security (MAFS) Project Duration March 2003 – March 2004 Funds Requested US$ 600,000

Main activities 400 vulnerable groups, belonging to cooperatives or central women’s networks will be selected based on the number of returnees, ex-combatants, foster parents and caregivers to handicapped people in the group. These groups shall be organised around 40 focal communities for the distribution or construction of food processing equipment to facilitate management and promote access to services by the targeted groups. Each vulnerable woman will receive 20kgs of groundnut seed and one vegetable kit. 10 rice mills, 10 cassava processing machines, 10 palm oil presses, 10 salt storage centres with production inputs, 10 stores with drying floors, will be constructed or distributed to focal communities depending on the primary processing activity of the groups concerned. The groups will be given training in management and maintenance of equipment to ensure sustainability of the activities.

Expected outcome To be produced are 4,000 MTs of shelled groundnut. Fifty food-processing facilities will also be established thereby reducing post harvest losses, increasing supply of food and salt to returnees and other community members. This will facilitate economic reintegration of female returnees and ex-combatants leading to higher household income of the targeted groups. Through this support, poor foster parents and households with handicapped members will be able to provide better care level to their families. It is expected that the amount of time and labour spent in processing food will decrease living time for care giving roles. Ten thousand backyard vegetable gardens will improve supply of vegetables. This together with the provision of iodised salt; will be improved by reducing micronutrient deficiencies in the diet.

Partners and coordination mechanisms This project will build on the experience of the ongoing women’s household food security project implemented by FAO through MAFS and NGOs. Project activities will be coordinated through the National Agricultural Committee. There will also be close liaison with UNHCR, UNICEF and the Child protection Network partners. NRC and other members of the committee working with war-wounded will play a leading role in the identification of beneficiary groups.

Support to the overall strategy, and relation to other projects The project implementation strategy will support efforts in resettlement, and reintegration of returnees by facilitating livelihood opportunities to women and others caring for special groups. This project will support the work of UNHCR and other agencies involved in repatriation and resettlement of IDPs, returnees and handicap people by kick-starting basic agro based social services in the communities of origin. The activities are also consistent with national priorities, which aim to free the population of Sierra Leone from hunger by 2007.

SUMMARY There is continued threat of epidemic-prone diseases (Yellow Fever, Lassa Fever, Cholera, Meningitis, Shigellosis, Measles) in Sierra Leone, with potential to cause high morbidity and mortality among the population after the decade-long civil strife in the country. The ongoing Lassa Fever outbreak has claimed over 500 lives and is the severest and most protracted ever recorded. Liberia and Guinea have been afflicted by extensive outbreaks of Yellow Fever in 2001. The cross-border mass migration into Sierra Leone favoured by the prevailing peace and the worsening crisis in Liberia are factors that can lead to a spill-over of any epidemic or disease outbreak into the country. A recent case of Guinea worm was confirmed to have been imported from Guinea. Yaws thought to have been eliminated was observed among several communities in the Bombali and Port Loko districts. The prolonged rainy season and the subsequent severe flooding observed in the recent past, calls for disaster preparedness and response.

Main Activities ?? Training of staff on surveillance and control of epidemic-prone and re-emerging diseases; ?? Investigation and rapid response to epidemics; ?? Active case searches and control of guinea worm and yaws; ?? Provision of vaccines, drugs, equipment and supplies for epidemic preparedness; ?? Establishment of an emergency preparedness and response system.

Expected Outcome ?? Timely detection and response to epidemics, guinea worm and yaws; ?? Enhanced capacity of health staff in emergency response; ?? Quality and affordable services provided at primary and referral health care facilities to war affected population; ?? Capacity for preparedness and response to disaster response available

Sixty-three percent of pre- war artisan fishing vessels is functioning and rehabilitation efforts are targeting up to 2,124 artisan fisher folk, which will bring production to pre-war levels. There is a need to improve the distribution of fish to central inland markets in areas away from the coast. Developing market links between fisher folk groups who have received support through emergency activities with inland market traders, as well as providing fish storage and preservation facilities at inland markets is vital to jump-starting marketing channels and availability of fish to community households. Youth are still a very vulnerable group and potential source of renewed instability. This calls for a rapid expansion of employment opportunities needed but also a systematic

Targeted Beneficiaries Up to 1,800 fisherfolk returnee families and their host communities Districts Kambia, Pujehun, Moyamba, and Bonthe Districts Implementing Partners FAO in collaboration with the Ministry of Fisheries and Marine Resources (MF&MR) Project Duration January - December 2003 Funds Requested US$ 150,000

Main activities 1,800 beneficiaries in eight communities in Kambia, Pujehun, Moyamba, and Bonthe Districts will be identified using participatory rapid appraisal methods. Basic marketing infrastructure in the form of fish smoking houses with ovens will be constructed in each of the selected coastal communities. In order to ensure effective utilisation of these infrastructures, a minimum of eight workshops will be organised in fish handling and preservation, and the efficient use and maintenance of the smoke ovens.

Expected outcome At least eight well-organised women’s groups involved in fish marketing will be established. Eight improved smokehouses with ovens will be constructed and handed over to the communities involved, two smoke houses in each of the four-targeted districts. About 75% of the women involved in fish processing and marketing will be trained in improved fish processing techniques and maintenance of the smoke ovens. The consequent increase in the shelf life of the fish will also increase fish supply to distant markets at affordable prices, thus improving household nutrition and food security. The improved-design smoke ovens will reduce fuel wood consumption and increase the profit earnings of women fish processors and marketers.

Partners and Coordination mechanisms To avoid duplication of efforts, FAO will work in collaboration with the Ministry of Fisheries and Marine Resources in the implementation of this project. The project will ensure effective cooperation with relevant UN agencies, NGOs active in the project areas, fishing cooperatives, traditional authorities, and beneficiary committees. They will be involved in the planning, implementation, and assessment of all project activities.

Support to the overall strategy and relationship to other projects The implementation of this project will capitalize on the experiences gained during previous emergency assistance projects, which benefited a large number of fisherfolk in the project communities.

Project Duration September 2002 - September 2003 Funds Requested US$ 599,950

Main Activities: Liaison with MRU Joint Security Committee, Border zone confidence building units. Information exchange, dissemination assistance to local police, RSLAF. Appropriate community buildings rehabilitation, Migrant Centres. Economic activities (e.g. local market rehabilitation). IOM will support rehabilitation of necessary feeder roads for access with a view to re-establishing normal border zone communications and regular economic and social activities.

Expected outputs: The project will reduce border insecurity resulting from war, mercenary activity, foraging raids, and unemployment particularly among young males, food shortages, crime and looting. Through extension of existing resettlement and shelter activities, the project would further build confidence between the security forces and community representatives, as positive interventions by an IOM’s intergovernmental presence enhanced local security. The project will improve feeder road accessibility to the Mano River Border Zone Migration Centres from both sides of the border through acquisition of essential materials for delivery to the local and national road maintenance authorities (SLRA). The project will bring lasting awareness on HIV/AIDS, STDs, Malaria and general health amongst the MRU border communities, eventually contributing to reducing the mortality rate in the region. Activities focusing on women, particularly head of household women will underpin their position in society and reduce vulnerability in the unstable community environment.

Partners and Coordination Mechanisms: In collaboration with the MRU Secretariat in Freetown and with the coordination of MRU National Sub-Offices in Monrovia and Conakry and pursuant to the Fifteenth Protocol to the Mano River Union Declaration, dated May 9th 2000, in conjunction with local actors and counterparts, national, community, governmental and non-governmental, IOM will seek to foster community stabilization through support based on the Border Zone Migrant Centre (BZMC) concept.

107 ANNEXES INTERNATIONAL FEDERATION OF RED CROSS AND RED CRESCENT SOCIETIES

APPEAL TOTAL: CHF 3,526,004 (USD 2,382,083 or EUR 2,412,614)2

For details please refer to the Federation's website where the entire 2003 Annual Appeal will appear on 12 December, 2002.

As an operational partner working in close collaboration and coordination with UN agencies, the ICRC, and NGO's, the International Federation continues to provide support to the national society in Sierra Leone (as well as national societies throughout the west Africa region). Within this context, the Federation emphasizes the importance of and committment to the CAP, not only as an important strategic planning and coordination tool related to the CHAP, but also as an appropriate avenue to advocate on behalf of critical issues which impact humanitarian efforts.

Introduction Sierra Leone has the highest maternal mortality rate in the world (1,800/100,000), one of the highest under-five mortality rates (286/1,000) and infant mortality (170/1000), immunisation coverage has declined to 43% and HIV/AIDS prevalence according to the preliminary results of a WHO survey conducted in April 2002 now stands at 4.9% with the Freetown area reaching 6.1%. Unemployment and poverty also remain a major problem with only 20% of the economically active population being gainfully employed and 85% of the population currently living in extreme poverty. Sierra Leone still remains last of the 173 countries listed in the UN 2002 Human Development Index. This is due to the devastation caused by the 10-year conflict with more than half of the entire population displaced and economically impoverished.

Sierra Leone has a very strong and credible national society and the Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement intends to further reinforce the National Society’s reputation as the lead humanitarian organisation in Sierra Leone through assisting its health care, humanitarian, disaster preparedness and organisational development programmes.

Within Health and Care, the strategy will focus on improving the health status and well being of the most vulnerable. This will be achieved using the SLRCS network of volunteers, members and community participation in Primary Health Care, support to Traditional Birth Attendants, First Aid training, HIV/AIDS and Health education.

Faced with the high demand for humanitarian assistance in the crucial stage between conflict and peace, the Humanitarian Values strategy will focus on opposing discrimination towards people who have been involved in or affected by the recently ended conflict and promoting a culture of non- violence. This will be achieved through three projects: Job Aid for War Amputees (JAWA), Child Advocacy and Rehabilitation (CAR) and Community Animation and Peace Support (CAPS).

World-wide, the Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement is seen as one of the major agencies in Disaster Management. To ensure this in Sierra Leone, the Disaster Management strategy will focus on enhancing local capacity to provide timely and effective response to disaster victims.

National Context The disarmament process was completed mid-January 2002 and an official announcement on the end of the 10-year conflict was declared March 2002. A successful parliamentary and presidential election were held on 14 May 2002, with the incumbent President getting 70% of the votes. The election was carried out in an atmosphere of peace and tranquility, with election observers from all

108 ANNEXES parts of the world assisting. No major discrepancies were reported and the result has been accepted both internationally and locally by all contesting parties.

By end July 2002, most IDP camps have closed down as IDPs returned to their home areas, and many in time for the planting season. The number of registered IDPs reduced from 250,000 to 20,000. A major return of Sierra Leonean refugees from neighbouring countries is also ongoing with assistance from UNHCR and partners, among them the Disaster Management team of SLRCS.

To ensure a well-consolidated peace, there is a need for continued commitment from both national and international actors, assisting in the transformation from emergency relief to recovery, while simultaneously ensuring the introduction of sustainable development.

National Society Priorities The Sierra Leone Red Cross Society ( SLRCS ) programmes and priorities are based on the fourth and fifth Pan Africa Conference - Kampala and Ouagadougou Declaration, ARCHI 2010, Strategy 2010 and the workshop paper ‘Overall Strategy for SLRCS 2002-2005’ prepared in March 2001.

The SLRCS considers itself in a unique position to positively influence the reconstruction, resettlement and rehabilitation of the victims of the conflict in order to actively support the ongoing transformation from conflict to a peaceful civilised society. To facilitate this change, the National Society is undergoing a challenging restructuring process that will ensure a viable transformation from emergency assistance to a development one.

109 ANNEXES

The National Society has become one of the major players in advocacy and humanitarian values programming, with three successful projects: one targeting amputees (JAWA), one for children affected by war (CAR) and one for war ravaged communities (CAPS).

SLRCS intends to limit its priorities to the following ongoing programming: ?? Disaster Management ?? Community-Based Health Programme (CBHP) ?? HIV/AIDS ?? Humanitarian Values (JAWA, CAR and CAPS). ?? Organisational Development ?? Blood Bank (supported by Swiss Red Cross). ?? Relief (supported by ICRC). ?? Communication and Tracing (supported by ICRC)

Red Cross and Red Crescent Priorities International Federation: The SLRCS, with assistance from the Federation, was able to establish partnerships with a number of donors and their support enabled the National Society to carry out the projects it had identified in the 2002 Appeal. Out of a total 2002 Appeal budget of CHF 3.9 million, donors provided 96% of the required funding. This generous level of support resulted in the delivery of quality programming and services that assisted the most vulnerable throughout Sierra Leone. The National Society receives support from several Participating National Societies - including the British, Canadian, Danish, Finnish, Netherlands, Norwegian, Spanish, Swedish, Swiss Red Cross societies - as well as from the US State Department Bureau of Population, Refugees and Migration.

ICRC: As lead agency in country, ICRC is building the National Society’s capacity in health, relief and conflict preparedness, and tracing. Bilateral: The Swiss Red Cross supports the National Society’s blood bank operation.

Further development of the current programming will remain the priority for SLRCS during 2003 with a greater emphasis on organisational development and capacity building within the National Society including achieving national coverage. It is anticipated that a similar level of donor financial and technical support will be required for 2003.

In light of the recently ended 10-year conflict, the ICRC plans significant reduction of its activities within agriculture, relief and health - areas where the government is expected to assume responsibility. Consultations within the Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement including regular tripartite meetings will continue to ensure the current level of excellent cooperation is maintained.

The SLRCS will begin work on a formal five-year Strategic Plan in the last quarter of 2002 to be completed in 2003. A Cooperation Agreement Strategy (CAS) will then be developed and completed during 2003. Both documents will be developed with the participation and input of existing and potential partners.

110 ANNEXES Priority Programmes for Secretariat Assistance The Community-Based Health Programme (CBHP) part of Health and Care has been a traditional area of intervention for SLRCS, but this has been down-scaled in the 2003 Appeal due to government health facilities slowly being reactivated. Continued assistance is still foreseen especially at the community level, as needs are great. This is best illustrated by the very high infant, child and maternal mortality rates. SLRCS plans to continue with its nine basic clinics with more emphasis on mother/child and health education.

The preliminary result of the zero prevalence survey on HIV/AIDS published in April 2002, shows a national HIV prevalence of 4.9%, but it is more revealing that more than 50% of the sexually active rural population had never heard of HIV/AIDS. The strategy for preventing HIV/AIDS in the 2003 Appeal has therefore been to scale up and expand the capacity of SLRCS branches and Red Cross groups, enabling them to carry out more HIV/AIDS information campaigns with emphasis on the rural communities, using drama groups, peer educators and local radio stations.

Training within Disaster Management is increased in the 2003 appeal and provisions are made for active assistance to returnees coming from neighbouring countries. SLRCS capability to respond will also be enhanced through branch storage level of non-food items provided by the ICRC in 2002 as well as clear operational procedures.

With the 10-year conflict ended, SLRCS is undergoing a transformation from an emergency operating organisation to a development organisation, a transition that demands enhanced capacities in programme management and narrative and financial reporting. A decrease in the external funding within the next couple of years is also expected, which might necessitate a reduction in staff. This exercise, if embarked on at an early stage, can be smooth and effective. The 2003 plans therefore to put emphasis on a restructuring of SLRCS with special emphasis on human resources and financial capacity and development combined with reaching complete national coverage in all 13 provinces. Plans will also be formulated for a reduced Federation presence with a possible phase-out of the delegation within 2-4 years.

The support to the Humanitarian Values Programmes both technical and financial will continue. These projects promote the Fundamental Principles and humanitarian values, especially action to reduce discrimination, and represent a new and challenging field for SLRCS. Not only have these projects enhanced SLRCS reputation with the government and the general public both within Sierra Leone as well as outside, they also represent an essential part of ensuring a durable and lasting peace, by assisting some of the main victims of the conflict - war affected children, amputees and war ravaged communities.
