Haiti Assistance to affected population by Tropical Storm Isaac and Hurricane Sandy – HTI121

Appeal Target: US$ 2,412,521

Balance Requested: US$ 1,675,884

Geneva, 26 November 2012

The tropical storm Isaac hit Haiti in August. The storm crossed the entire nation, north to south; all departments in Haiti were affected, which entailed heavy rains and wind. Afterwards, in October Hurricane Sandy affected Haiti from October 23 to October 27, covering all departments of the country.

A total of 1.8 million Haitians have been affected by the Hurricane, based on the latest report by the UN. Hundreds of cases of cholera have been reported in the week following the impact of Sandy. Sandy struck both the areas which were previously already affected by Isaac, such as West, Sud and Sud-Est Departments, but also severely affected Grande Anse, which was not as badly hit by Isaac. The Haitian government has declared a state of emergency in the country, continuing throughout the month of November, and has requested international assistance to help the victims of Sandy & Isaac.

All this takes place against a background of Haiti being a highly vulnerable to natural disasters such as hurricanes and storms. Both urban and rural areas are still recovering from the 2010 Earthquake. Cholera still prevails in the country and there are risks of exacerbation in the days and weeks after the impact of the hurricane. Livelihoods in highly vulnerable rural areas have been lost, and the affected communities have limited capacity to recover without external support.

The ACT Haiti Forum has decided to issue an appeal, where MISSEH, LWF, DKH and FCA, as requesting members, incorporated the response to Sandy emergency with the assistance to population affected by tropical storm Isaac.

THE CRISIS Tropical Storm Isaac affected the entire country, but the worst affected areas include the Sud, Sud-Est, Nord-Ouest and Ouest departments (OCHA, Conseil National de Sécurité Alimentaire). Two months after the impact of Isaac, Hurricane Sandy passed over the neighbouring countries Cuba and Jamaica, but severely affecting Haiti which had suffered from tropical storm conditions, including heavy rain for 72 hours. According to reports from the Haitian government, UN agencies and NGOs so far, the impact of Sandy was even worse than the impact of Isaac, in terms of deaths as well as damage to the agricultural sector.

PRIORITY NEEDS Early recovery & livelihood restoration; WASH; health (cholera prevention); psychosocial support; shelter & settlement (rehabilitation of roofs and repairing or rebuilding houses); education (reconstructing and furnishing schools); emergency preparedness

 by ACT members outside the Appeal

LWF is implementing an immediate relief response (distributions of food and hygiene kits) to Isaac and Sandy funded bilaterally by PWRDF (93,500 USD), and a response to Isaac funded bilaterally by LWR (25,000 USD).

UMCOR's core operations are in the West Department and responding to immediate needs of beneficiary communities.

DKH is planning to implement 2 other humanitarian responses to Sandy and Isaac: a food security intervention in Bainet (South East Department) with Atepaze, and possibly a house rehabilitation project in Camp Perrin (South Department) with Koral. Furthermore, within the scope of an on-going Disaster Risk Reduction project, 2 local partners, Concert Action and Crose are just about to distribute NFIs (i.e. hygiene kits, tarpolins, tents, blankets, and jerry cans) to 500 households in Jacmel, and 300 households in Petit-Goave.

Norwegian Church Aid (NCA) has focused its assessments of the damages caused by Tropical Storm Sandy in the region of Les Palmes, where NCA is implementing long-term projects in the field of water, sanitation and hygiene. NCA has so far provided emergency hygiene kits to 222 families in the Leogane area, and will continue to monitor cholera incidence rates in the rural communities of Phillipe and Belle Vue.

Church World Service (CWS) has supported agricultural cooperatives in the Northwest and Artibonite regions of Haiti for seven years. CWS will continue programming in this region that focuses on helping these communities become more resilient to disasters, including frequent droughts and nearly-annual hurricanes.

II. OPERATIONAL CONTEXT

1. The crisis

Tropical storm Isaac hit Haiti in the evening and night of August 24, continuing into the morning of the next day. Heavy rains and wind continued until midday August 26. The storm affected the entire country, but the worst affected areas include the Sud, Sud-Est, Nord-Ouest and Ouest departments (OCHA, Conseil National de Securite Alimentaire). Heavy rain was reported over much of the country with accumulations of 8-12 inches. Wind gusts of close to 70 miles were also registered. Mountainous communities were highly affected by wind, landslide/runoffs, while communities in the lower land/plains were affected by flooding. On August 28, 24 persons had been reported dead, with 42 injured and 3 missing (OCHA). 180 camps were affected by the storm. 6,000 people in IDP camps lost their shelters. According to OCHA and the Conseil National de Securite Alimentaire, as well as reports from ACT members, the agricultural sector was severely hit by the storm. According to WHO, cholera outbreaks have been reported in several parts of the country, including in Grand Goave, following Isaac. According to the education cluster situation report dated August 29, 152 schools were reported to be damaged or completely destroyed, most of these in the Sud-Est and Ouest departments.

Two months after the impact of Isaac, Hurricane Sandy passed over the neighbouring countries Cuba and Jamaica, but severely affected Haiti which suffered from tropical storm conditions, including heavy rain for 72 hours. According to reports from the Haitian government, UN agencies and NGOs so far, the impact of Sandy was even worse than the impact of Isaac, in terms of deaths as well as damage to the agricultural sector. In some places up to 70-80 % of agricultural fields have been damaged. The Haitian Government has warned that there is a large risk of famine in vulnerable parts of the country during the coming months, due to the double impact of Isaac and Sandy on agricultural production. According to Haitian Government reports, around 200,000 people are currently suffering from damage or complete destruction of their houses. A total of 1,8 million Haitians have been affected by the Hurricane, based on the latest report by the UN.1 Hundreds of cases of cholera have been reported in the week following the impact of Sandy. Sandy struck both the areas which were previously already affected by Isaac, such as West, Sud and Sud-Est departments, but also severely affected Grande Anse, which was not as badly hit by Isaac.

The Haitian government has declared a state of emergency in the country, continuing throughout the month of November, and has requested international assistance to help the victims of Sandy & Isaac.

2. Actions to date

2.1-2.2 Needs and resources assessment/Situation Analysis

MISSEH Hurricane Sandy/ Isaac have greatly hit the communal section of Balan and have accentuated the economic challenges faced by families already living in extreme vulnerability. The damages worsened the economic situation of the region, already marked by a high incidence of poverty. The combined effect of wind and flooding has caused extensive damage to agriculture and the Social Mission of Haitian Churches (MISSEH), from an assessment of the losses at the communal section of Balan, has found that the most colossal losses have been recorded in the agriculture sector where the damages speak for themselves, with almost two hundred and sixty heads of cattle (cattle and goats) and more than 80% of crops destroyed (banana, corn, gardens and other seasonal crops).

TS Isaac / Hurr. Sandy, Haiti: Assistance to affected pop. – HTI121

Currently, the purchasing capacity of people is virtually zero, and households are as poor in food as economically. Then, MISSEH, involved in the area Balan in projects of Peace and Tolerance and Support for the rehabilitation of the environment and the promotion of gender equality, consider it is urgent to promote actions with quick impact on the purchasing capacity of families in order to stabilize their situation and help restore their livelihoods.

LWF After both Isaac and Sandy, LWF and its local partners have conducted rapid needs assessments in the following areas: - Palmes 9 and Palmes 10 in Petit Goave, Palmes Region, Ouest Department - Tete a Boeuf, Grand Goave, Palmes region, Ouest Department - Foret des Pins/Fonds Verettes in Ouest Department - Thiotte, Belle Anse, Grand Gosier, Anse a Pitres in Sud-Est Department - Jeremie, Moron and Chambellan, Grande Anse Department

The damage was worst in the first four areas after Isaac, whilst Sandy affected all of the above. LWF has worked with local partners CODAB, RODEP, FNGA and RSFP, as well as trained DRR brigades, the national Agency for Civil Protection, and local authorities, in performing the needs assessments. Information has been shared with ACT members, OCHA and other UN agencies and international NGOs working in the same intervention areas. During the two months following Isaac, LWF has implemented an immediate response including distribution of 640 food kits and around 3,000 hygiene kits in Palmes Region and Foret des Pins/Thiotte, bilaterally funded by PWRDF and LWR respectively. PWRDF is funding a similar response, also covering Grande Anse, following the impact of Sandy.

Based on continued assessment and analysis of the situation, livelihoods, disaster risk reduction, psychosocial support and cholera prevention are key areas which will require additional resources in the vulnerable targeted regions. The damage inflicted by Isaac was severe, but Sandy has made the situation acute. Neither the Haitian government nor the international community are responding sufficiently in the remote geographical areas where LWF works, and there is a clear gap to fill.

DKH Following both Isaac and Sandy, DKH and its partners (Atepaze, Acded, Koral, Gadel, Concert Action) have carried out assessment needs in their respective areas of intervention, covering 8 communes in the Sud-Est and Nord--Ouest departments.

Directly in the trajectory of Isaac, Bainet has been one of the most severely affected communes in Haiti: - nearly 1,500 houses were destroyed (230), damaged (958) or flooded (230) and these families displaced in temporarily shelters; - 15 schools, and 13 churches were damaged; - the quasi totality of the agriculture production (banana, avocado, manioc, fruits, bean, pea, millet) was lost or destroyed: 118.7 out of 144.4 km2 of cultivating land; - significant loss of life stock: 2,256 animals died, mainly goats (77%) but also chicken (6%), ovine (5%), cow (4%) and pork (4%).

Then Sandy has worsened the level of destruction in Bainet: according to a report released on 31st October by the GoH (Système National de Gestion des Risques et des Désastres), Sandy killed one person, and affected significantly 540 additional families: 70 houses were destroyed, 450 damaged and 10 flooded.

Until now the commune has not received any external assistance. Only DKH continues to distribute drinkable water (from water taps built at DKH-office) to the population of Bainet town since the only

TS Isaac / Hurr. Sandy, Haiti: Assistance to affected pop. – HTI121

other source of drinkable water in this commune was damaged by Isaac. For those affected communities who have lost their livelihood and assets, the next 3 months will be critical.

FCA After Isaac, Finn Church Aid sent a team of engineers and specialists in education to assess the situation of schools in Sud-Est department, where 88 per cent of the schools that were reported to be destroyed by the storm are situated. The storm caused damage in an area that it is still recovering from the January 2010 earthquake that caused massive damage in the education sector. Especially those schools that were functioning in makeshift structures or school tents were hit hardest by Isaac. The storm destroyed several light infrastructures, among which schools, especially in the Sud-Est department. A field assessment conducted by FCA revealed more than 85 schools have been affected (22 schools needing minor repairs, 10 requiring significant repair while 44 schools were completely destroyed and need to be re-constructed), threatening resumption of school activities.

Hurricane Sandy, which passed near Haiti 2 months later, exacerbated the situation. More schools that were already in precarious situation have been further affected. Therefore FCA is maintaining the initial plan and if possible financially will seek to scale up its activities to additional schools. Following its strategy, FCA, in collaboration with the education cluster, decided to renovate 10 schools while building 15 semi-permanent schools after the passage of Isaac.

Though at the time schools were closed (on holidays), the damages mean up to 21,126 of students won’t be able to resume school activities in decent conditions; some will altogether miss education opportunity if nothing is done, unless resorting to extreme measures such as studying under trees and such other extreme measures that are not conducive to good quality of education, even if education is one of the 5 priority areas of the current government and as well one of the solution to the country’s chronic poverty and vicious cycle of violence, disease, environmental destruction, etc.

2.3 Capacity to respond

MISSEH MISSEH is a large network of sub-networks of Protestant churches. Each member is a Protestant Mission. The local committees established through churches will work for tasks monitoring of field activities in order to ensure the sustainability of the works by increasing local capacity to obtain outputs full of good technical perspective. As part of the response to Isaac and Hurricane Sandy, MISSEH wants to capitalize on these experiences by focusing in particular on its network of local partners. MISSEH also has an experienced staff, with extensive experience in emergency and mobilized to respond to the crisis. Moreover, its physical and institutional anchor in the community gives it a comparative advantage that will maximize the benefits to the project beneficiaries. Since the hurricane, the MISSEH’s team of Program’s Coordination actively participates in various meetings of Food Security Cluster. This allows us to be regularly updated on the situation and the actions of each other in these areas, in order to act complementarily.

LWF LWF Haiti has experienced staff in the targeted sectors (livelihoods, psychosocial, cholera prevention and DRR), and field staff in the targeted regions (field office in Leogane including warehouse capacity and a field office in Foret des Pins as well as in Jeremie). LWF also has significant capacity to respond through existing partners in these areas (RODEP in Palmes Region, FNGA in Grande Anse and CODAB/RSFP in Foret des Pins/Thiotte). LWF Haiti however requires additional external funding in order to implement the additional activities required in these sectors after the impact of tropical storm Isaac and Hurricane Sandy.

TS Isaac / Hurr. Sandy, Haiti: Assistance to affected pop. – HTI121

DKH DKH Haiti and Concert Action have been successfully working together on a large number of rehabilitation and construction projects in the South East Department since the earthquake of January 2010, including: 1) two projects for the construction of water points in Bainet, one funded by the Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ), one funded by DKH, 2) two projects for construction of houses and latrines in Petit-Goave, one funded by DKH, one funded by BftW, 3) a house construction project in Cote-de-Fer funded by BMZ and, 4) a DRR initiative in Jacmel funded by DKH.

FCA FCA has been active in the construction sector in Haiti since 2010, and has built hundreds of semi- permanent schools in the Palmes Region. Although it was initially assumed that they will be lasting for the next 4-5 years, recent assessment by our structural engineer shows that those schools will last till the next 20 years if no other major disaster happens, considering the high quality of the work. None of the semi-permanent schools built by FCA between 2010 and 2011 were affected by tropical storm Isaac or Hurricane Sandy, even if the eye of the storm passed over some of those schools. FCA has specialised in the construction of earthquake and hurricane resistant green schools. Our green model recently won a prestigious award in Canada, among the competition were reputed Canadian Firms. Our team of engineers (including project managers, architects and structural engineers) has in combination over 70 years of field experience, building schools and other public and private infrastructure in Canada, the US, Haiti and other spots around the world.

In this project, FCA will not be implementing itself but rather will design the models and use Haitian commercial companies as contractors, with bulk of the work being carried out by local carpenters and masons hired by the contractors. FCA’s role will then be of supervision and monitoring to ensure appropriate building codes and materials are used.

2.4 Activities of forum and external coordination

 Meetings within the Forum on a monthly basis (and more frequently the weeks following Isaac and Sandy)  Participation in Humanitarian Forum organised by OCHA  Specific meetings organised by the ACT members involved in this appeal  Contact with emergency focal points from the other agencies and organisations

2 These figures build on estimates, using demographic statistics for each commune/department of intervention, information form needs assessments, as well as LWF’s own gender/age selection criteria for certain interventions. Note: Women are specifically targeted for activities like psychosocial activities and livelihoods activities, thus giving a significantly higher percentage of women as beneficiaries of these activities. However, the reason why this is not clearer in the total beneficiary gender disaggregation is the imbalance/majority of men in Grande Anse (55% of the population). For some activities, such as distribution of hygiene kits, this will be done to families as a whole (not individual women), meaning that a slight majority of beneficiaries are likely to be men in Grande Anse, given the population imbalance in the favour of men. For this reason, the prioritization of women in certain activities does not have a dramatic effect on the gender distribution among the total beneficiaries.

3.3 Implementation methodology

3.3.1 Implementation arrangements

Each ACT member will implement the planned activities individually, partly through direct implementation, partly through contractors and local partner organizations. - MISSEH’s operational partners will be the Agricultural Department of Ouest (DDAO), and the Ministry of Environment with which MISSEH collaborates in the implementation of project activities. - LWF will implement through four partners in the three areas of intervention: FNGA in Grande Anse, RODEP in Palmes, and CODAB/RSFP in Thiotte/Foret des Pins. LWF will support each of the partners, building their capacity and enabling them to maximize their potential as partners in the implementation of the ACT Appeal. Thus certain financial support to each partner is envisaged as part of the ACT Appeal. The amount will be fixed and the same for each area of intervention; thus CODAB and RSFP will share the amount earmarked for partner support in Thiotte/Foret des Pins. - DKH proposes to implement through Concert Action, a local organisation that is already present in Bainet. - FCA will carry out the emergency reconstruction response in cooperation with a construction company that works under a sub-contracting arrangement and manages community works as cash for work for both unskilled and skilled labour if present in the communities.

3.3.2 Partnerships with target populations

Each requesting member has established relationships with the communities in which they plan interventions under this Appeal. Working through local partners (see above) contributes to building partnerships with target populations. Fostering a sense of ownership by local communities is a priority in all interventions.

ACT Haiti intends to emphasize its accountability to all its stakeholders both in the communities where ACT works at one end and the funding partners and their constituencies at the other end. Accordingly, communities will be involved in all stages of project planning, reporting, monitoring and evaluation. This will ensure that there are opportunities to discuss if implemented activities really respond to their primary concerns and produce the expected results, and result in such positive changes as they want in their lives.

ACT Haiti members subscribe to the SPHERE standards and the Code of Conduct for International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement and NGOs in Disaster Relief, as well as the HAP standards.

3.3.3 Cross-cutting issues

MISSEH MISSEH’s team is aware of impacts experienced by women in emergency situations, and will pay close attention to women. The project team will pay particular attention to cases of violence against women that may arise in this context of emergency. It will proactively detect and assist victims with the support of appropriate services. Those most exposed to violence include women and girls and unaccompanied

TS Isaac / Hurr. Sandy, Haiti: Assistance to affected pop. – HTI121

children, widows, single mothers, women heads of household, etc. MISSEH is fully aware of the importance of integrating women in all project activities. Referring to their previous experiences, the project teams will promote the participation of women in a transversal manner in all activities and that taking into account their specific constraints.

Participatory appraisals will be based on training needs in Management of Risks and Disasters (MRD) and environmental protection, but will also take into account related elements such as water contamination, garbage collection and other. Particular attention will be paid to the training needs of women and girls. A methodological guide will be prepared for the conduct of appraisals. Training tools include development of modules and training manuals. The training methodology will include a preliminary step to measure the level of knowledge of participants in order to compare to the results of final evaluation. Meanwhile, in collaboration with school officials and authorities (departmental directorates of education, inspectors, elected officials, etc.) a training program will be developed specifically for schools. This program will take account of other interventions in the school environment.

LWF Climate change will be mainstreamed into the LWF Haiti response to Isaac and Sandy through an integral DRR approach. Livelihood activities supported will not only contribute to early economic recovery but will also mitigate risks of future disasters, such as flooding (for example soil conservation activities) and enhance the resilience of communities in the face of disaster risks. LWF’s expertise and experience in the field of DRR will facilitate this approach.

Gender is an integral component of all LWF Haiti emergency and development interventions, linked to a rights-based approach. For certain activities, priority will be given to women as beneficiaries. For example, psychosocial training (for both men and women) will highlight the vulnerability of women, children, the disabled and the elderly in the face of emergency. Separate spaces will be created for women to discuss protection needs amongst themselves. Furthermore, women and women-headed households will be targeted specifically in key livelihoods activities.

DKH DKH and its partners follow a gender approach:  At the needs assessment stage, by ensuring the full participation of women;  In the design project stage, by ensuring that specific needs of women are taken into account;  At the implementation phase, by involving and recruiting women whenever possible, including for non-traditional roles;  During the monitoring and evaluation of the project, by ensuring that at least 50% of the persons interviewed are women.

FCA Equality will be addressed through community work (cash for work activities) targeting equal representation of men and women (unskilled and skilled labour present in the community, managed by the contractor). Disability is addressed through the school design, which will enable access to all. Class rooms have good natural lighting, helping people with weakened visibility to attend classes. The construction of schools contributes to addressing child rights (e.g. access to safe and quality education). In terms of protection, the schools will be constructed to be safe from the effects of earthquake and hurricane. Additional protection will be provided by separating girls’ toilets from boys’, easily accessible

TS Isaac / Hurr. Sandy, Haiti: Assistance to affected pop. – HTI121

while not being remote.

Disaster risk reduction is being addressed through the earthquake and hurricane resistance design.

All our construction materials are locally available and techniques are relatively easy to teach, which will raise the awareness of structural safety beyond the school projects. The main emphasis of the school design has been to produce a structure that can be constructed using local labor. The parents-teachers association will be reinforced for local ownership and participation in the management of the schools as per best practices from a rights-based approach point of view.

3.3.4 Coordination

ACT Haiti Forum Members meet on a monthly basis during non-emergency periods. The ACT members participating in the appeal will, apart from the monthly ACT Forum meetings, meet monthly during the initial months in order to ensure information exchange and coordination of activities. The ACT Haiti Forum has a part-time coordinator, who will facilitate communication between implementing members between meetings. ACT members participate individually in the relevant clusters and “Tables sectorielles” for this appeal.

3.3. 5 Communications and visibility

The part-time ACT Haiti Forum Coordinator and the ACT Haiti Forum Chair will share the responsibility for joint ACT communication activities during the implementation period. No additional human resources will be required. The ACT Haiti Forum has a plan for communications in the context of its Emergency Preparedness and Response Plan. Individual ACT members also have their own communications strategies and contact persons in place for member-specific media enquiries.

3.3.6 Advocacy

The ACT Haiti Forum is engaged in advocacy initiatives linked to climate change/disaster risk reduction, through the Joint CC/DRR Programme, as well as issues linked to housing and land rights, both of which are relevant to this appeal. Synergies between the appeal and ongoing advocacy initiatives will be sought where relevant. ACT members regularly support their local partners in advocacy initiatives, as part of their regular development programs. Supporting local partners’ advocacy skills will enable them to actively advocate for the Haitian government as well as the international community to take their responsibility vis-à-vis the Haitian people in the current emergency context. Advocacy initiatives linked to Sandy vis-à-vis the international community may also be pursued in cooperation with the ACT Geneva office and Head Offices of ACT Haiti Forum members.

3.3.7 Sustainability and linkage to recovery – prioritization

The strong focus on livelihoods, recovery and rehabilitation/reconstruction in this appeal intends to foster the long-term sustainability of the intervention. There is an emphasis on recovery rather than immediate relief, although the latter will also be part of the appeal. Similarly, the link to DRR emphasized by all requesting members takes into account future risks and natural hazards, making interventions more sustainable, whilst nevertheless addressing immediate needs and saving lives. Strong partnerships with local and national authorities in the coordination of the response further

TS Isaac / Hurr. Sandy, Haiti: Assistance to affected pop. – HTI121

contribute to its sustainability. The Haitian government has been taking a more active role in the response to Sandy, which is a positive development.

3.4 Human resources and administration of funds

Administrators and financial officers of each member will be responsible for the funds, according to regular institutional procedures and international accepted standards.

MISSEH Direct employees of the project will be a project coordinator and an agricultural monitor. The coordinator will work in the coordination, development and supervision of the activities of the project. Under the supervision of the coordinator, the agricultural monitor will accompany the mobilisers and beneficiaries in the implementation of activities. Employees of MISSEH as the accountant, the secretariat and the driver who have a role in the activities of the project will receive an allocation of the project.

3.5 Planned implementation period

The activities will take nine months after the start date. The activities of some ACT members will have a shorter duration. MISSEH: 1st December 2012 to 28 February 2013 LWF: 1st September 2012 to 31 May 2013 DKH: 1st December 2012 to 31 May 2013 FCA: 1 January to 30 June 2013 However, certain activities have started already on August 25.

3.6 Monitoring, reporting and evaluation

Each ACT member is responsible for having its own M&E system in place to monitor activities under this appeal. Monitoring reports will be shared on a quarterly basis. A joint external evaluation is planned for the end of the Appeal.

Monitoring and evaluation is undertaken at three levels: i) Participatory monitoring of the outcomes of all the projects at the local-level, involving the local population to ensure also downward accountability; ii) Input and output monitoring related to project activities; and iii) Qualitative process and outcome monitoring undertaken eventually by the main stakeholders. The above levels of monitoring and evaluation will be based on the projects plans and the inputs will be fed into the program-level monitoring. The purpose is to ensure effectiveness and efficiency of the work and to enhance accountability to key stakeholders: primary focus groups, the program, the key partners and donors.

TS Isaac / Hurr. Sandy, Haiti: Assistance to affected pop. – HTI121

IV. THE TOTAL ACT RESPONSE TO THE EMERGENCY

LWF is implementing an immediate relief response to Isaac and Sandy funded bilaterally by PWRDF (93,500 USD), and a response to Isaac funded bilaterally by LWR (25,000 USD). These interventions include distributions of food and hygiene kits, but not any longer term recovery support.

UMCOR's core operations are in the West Department and responding to immediate needs of beneficiary communities. UMCOR is also working with Methodist Church of Haiti partners to assess and address need.

World Renew (formerly CRWRC) responded to TS Isaac by providing about $12,000 for building repair in the Jacmel area working with partner organization, the ECRH. There is an additional $12,000 available for TS Isaac response and discussions are being held with other local partners. For Hurricane Sandy, World Renew is preparing a proposal to the CFGB (Canadian Foodgrains Bank) to provide seeds to farmers who lost their crops in the storm.

Christian Aid (CA) has consolidated evaluations from partners and the situation is very critical in some areas. Christian Aid might intervene with three partners (KORAL, SSID and MISSEY) in the South and in the West departments. The actions will be around WASH, shelters and livelihood. Two fields visits have been carried that showed how community leaders did some good preparations that saved live in affected communities.

Norwegian Church Aid (NCA) has focused its assessments of the damages caused by Tropical Storm Sandy in the region of Les Palmes, where NCA is implementing long-term projects in the field of water, sanitation and hygiene. Despite the immediate damage to crops, households and transport links, there is greater damage expected in the form of destroyed livelihoods, hunger, and cholera. NCA has so far provided emergency hygiene kits to 222 families in the Leogane area, and will continue to monitor cholera incidence rates in the rural communities of Phillipe and Belle Vue. No damage has been observed in relation to NCA's regular WASH programme and activities will therefore continue as planned. To date, NCA has pledged approximately USD 13,000 bilaterally to local partner MISSEH’s planned intervention in the municipality of Ganthier. A total of approximately USD 25,000 has been released from NCA’s emergency reserve funding to respond to the damages caused by Isaac and Sandy.

Church World Service (CWS) has supported agricultural cooperatives in the Northwest and Artibonite regions of Haiti for seven years. This arid and remote region is often affected by hurricanes, and both Sandy and Isaac resulting in loss of livestock, gardens and farmlands, and damage to homes. CWS will continue programming in this region that focuses on helping these communities become more resilient to disasters, including frequent droughts and nearly-annual hurricanes. Current programs provide micro-credit through twelve agricultural cooperatives, which provide members of the community with

TS Isaac / Hurr. Sandy, Haiti: Assistance to affected pop. – HTI121

financial resources to recover from disasters. Some assistance may also be given to help farmers restore their farmlands and gardens.
