Introduction In September 2010, FHI 360 was awarded a USAID Cooperative Agreement No. AID- OAA-A-10-00051 for a five-year period designed to help expand integrated neglected tropical disease (NTD) control efforts in highly prevalent focus countries in Asia. This Workplan Year Three outlines the goals, objectives and activities to be implemented by FHI 360 during the third year of this agreement, October 2012 to September 2013. FHI 360’s End Neglected Tropical Diseases in Asia program (END in Asia) will focus on assisting the national NTD control program in selected countries to strengthen and expand their NTD control efforts through a variety of support activities to fill in crucial gaps in their national programs, as well as to expand mass drug administration (MDA) as preventive treatment to at-risk populations in endemic areas where needed. These efforts will focus on six of the seven priority NTDs: Lymphatic Filariasis; Soil Transmitted Helminthes (hookworm, roundworm, and whipworm); Schistosomiasis; and Trachoma. Given the absence of Onchocerciasis in Asia, efforts to control this disease will not be included in the END in Asia Program. FHI 360 has been requested by USAID to focus activities during the third year within five countries in Asia, Bangladesh, Cambodia, Laos, Papua New Guinea, the Philippines, and Vietnam; with possible expansion into Burma depending on available resources and agreement with the host country government. In addition, END in Asia may be given the opportunity by USAID to expand support to other national NTD programs in Asia through the funding of strategic short-term activities that respond to specific needs within the selected programs. Country programs that are being considered for this limited assistance include India and Indonesia, though other countries may be considered based on discussions with local USAID missions and WHO representatives across the region. Examples of strategic activities that could be funded include disease mapping, prevalence and other types of surveys, IEC material development, training, organizational meetings/workshops, and local or regional technical assistance, as well as the procurement of supplies and pharmaceuticals. Following assessment visits, a list of proposed activities and associated budgets will be developed for each country for review and approval by USAID before commitments are made and implementation begun. Also included in this document is a Summary Budget (Annex I) outlining all associated costs expected during the second year of the program, a Schedule of International Travel (Annex II) proposed during the second year, and a Gantt Chart (Annex III) showing the timing of major program activities throughout the year. Key Principles Implementation will be guided by several key principles: • Country ownership: END in Asia will support the leadership and ownership of each national government in scaling-up integrated NTD control, through a well- 1 managed national NTD control program including the organization of an Intra- country Coordinating Committee and the development of a National NTD Strategic Plan and Annual Implementation Plans. The Program will encourage high-quality oversight, implementation and monitoring of field MDA activities. • Collaboration: END in Asia will collaborate with national NTD control programs, technical agencies and local organizations working on NTD control to strengthen integration, achieve cost efficiencies and maximize the impact of program resources. All END in Asia program strategies and activities will be linked to each country’s national strategic plan and implementation through the national program. • Transparency and accountability: END in Asia will use FHI 360’s existing performance-based grants management systems to deliver transparent and accountable results, with national governments directly involved in the process. This will be strongly linked to proactive oversight of grantee internal controls related to financial administration, implementation, and reporting to prevent and detect leakage, fraud, or misuse of program resources. • Capacity building for sustainability: the END in Asia team will encourage each national NTD program to take part in a structured approach to build their managerial capacity, including initial assessments, training and mentoring, proactive oversight, collaborative identification of Technical Assistance needs, provision of managerial and financial technical assistance; monitoring progress in building managerial capacity; and evaluation of capacity building efforts. • Additionality: END in Asia will ensure that all resources allocated to integrated NTD control in each focus country will increase the total resources allocated in the country, adding to, rather than displacing, existing resources. The key steps to ensuring additionality include a clear base-line identification of national government and donor resources allocated to NTD control in each country at the start of the Program. The effectiveness of additionality will be demonstrated through increased number of treatments, number of persons treated, and geographic coverage. • Integrated programs: END in Asia will strongly support the USAID and WHO initiative to integrate the design and management of control programs for the six selected NTDs at the national level, with an emphasis on the ambitious scale-up of the integrated approach to preventive chemotherapy (PCT) in all focus countries. II. Goals and Objectives Overarching END in Asia has been designed to contribute directly to USAID’s goal to reduce the prevalence of seven of the most prevalent NTDs by at least 50% among 70% of the world’s affected populations. The program will also directly contribute to the achievement of USAID’s global target of delivering one billion treatments through integrated NTD programs by 2013. 2 Box 1 Overarching Objective Significant increases in the proportion of the overall “at-risk” and “eligible” populations treated with appropriate preventive chemotherapy through the END in Asia program. END in Asia will support and assist the national NTD control program in each focus country in its efforts to: • Promote political commitment by disease-endemic country governments to integrate

  • Summary Report of Social and Environment Impact Assessment
    Poliamba Limited Proposed Lamendauen Plantation Kavieng District New Ireland Province Summary Report of Social and Environment Impact Assessment 1.0 Executive Summary New Ireland Province is situated in the north-eastern corner of Papua New Guinea. The main island, also known as New Ireland, is the second largest in the Bismarck Archipelago. Other islands within the province include New Hanover, Tigak, Djaul, Tench, Emirau, Mussau, Tabar, Lihir, Tanga and Anir. New Ireland is a narrow and mountainous island geographically aligned NW to SE. It is approximately 250km long and varies from 15 to 50km in width. The island can be divided into northern and southern New Ireland at 4oS latitude. For political and public administration, New Ireland Province is divided into two districts: Kavieng in the north and Namatanai in the south. Kavieng district is sub-divided into four Local Level Government (LLG) areas: Murat Rural, Kavieng Urban, Lavongai Rural and Tikana Rural. Namatanai district is made up of four LLG areas: Namatanai Rural, Nimamar Rural, Tanir Rural and Konoagil Rural. Kavieng town is the administrative capital of the province. The total land mass of the province is 9,557km2 and the population recorded in the 2011 National Census was 161,165. Geologically, northern New Ireland consists mostly of karst limestone with raised coralline limestone forming the flat lowlands along the coast. The two main soil types as Inceptisols (young, well-drained and moderately weathered soils) and Mollisols (high organic matter limestone-based soils). The region has a predominantly hot, humid, tropical climate with year round rainfall. Oil palm is currently grown on the coastal lowlands along the western and eastern coasts of northern New Ireland.
