CAMP COORDINATION AND CAMP MANAGEMENT CLUSTER · 5/14/2014 · welcomed the deployment, in the initial phase of disaster response, of a large number of countries’ military assets.

As of 28 April 2014, the Displacement Tracking Matrix (DTM) identified 5,830 families (26,523 individuals) in 66 open displacement sites across Regions VI and VIII. Findings also show that a majority of displaced families (71 per cent) have been provided with transitional shelter (bunkhouses), while the remaining caseload of families (8,234 families) remains in evacuation centres (ECs), tent cities and spontaneous settlements.

The DTM identified the need for continued transitional shelter assistance and relocation support for the caseload of IDPs still remaining in ECs, tent cities, and spontaneous settlements. There is also a need to establish communal facilities such as women- and child-friendly spaces, health stations, and multipurpose halls as well as sustained camp management assistance in the newly opened bunkhouse sites.

OVERVIEW

URGENT HUMANITARIAN NEEDS

The Camp Coordination and Camp Management Cluster tracks and monitors displacement flows in all displacement sites in order to define caseloads, identify vulnerable groups, monitor and coordinate service provision and advocate durable solutions for IDPs.

The CCCM Cluster, led by the Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) and the International Organization for Migration (IOM), has been working closely with government units at the national and municipal level, and with clusters and local and global private sector partners to ensure that the multi-sectorial needs of the displaced are met in an adequate and timely manner.

CAMP COORDINATION AND CAMP MANAGEMENT CLUSTER

CLUSTER RESPONSE

The CCCM Cluster, in close coordination with DSWD and local government units (LGUs), is training Displacement Management Focal Points within LGUs to ensure coverage of the caseload of families outside ECs in host communities or makeshift shelters within their barangays of origin. This is achieved by conducting community-level needs assessments and by monitoring population flows in and out of barangays. As of 25 April, the CCCM Cluster has given camp management training to 2,126 individuals, including site managers from IOM, DSWD and LGUs for the effective and coordinated delivery of services.

The Cluster has played a key role in the discussions, advisory services and advocacy regarding the proper implementation and use of bunkhouses. Upon the Government’s request, the Cluster has taken the lead in the assessment of all completed bunkhouses to identify gaps and required upgrades according to Sphere standards. To date a total of 9,368 households (44,623 individuals) have benefitted from camp management assistance and site improvement and mitigation activities, including the installation of storage shelves and kitchen counters, post reinforcement, drainage improvements, and the construction of communal activity centres, places of worship, women- and child-friendly spaces, and health consultation rooms. The Cluster has also facilitated the transfer of 3,938 families to transitional sites (bunkhouses) in Roxas, Ormoc, Tacloban and Guiuan while they await durable solutions.

In partnership with LGUs, the Cluster has embarked on a search for more lands to be used as transitional sites, particularly in Tacloban City and the heavily affected municipalities in Leyte. Municipal land-search committees are being set up for this purpose. Further, the Cluster continues to lend its support to the Government and other actors in the rehabilitation of damaged evacuation infrastructure across Haiyan-hit areas.

The Cluster has also recently provided support to DSWD in its Civil Registration Caravan project, wherein Haiyan victims with lost loved ones are given assistance in obtaining death claim benefits through the reconstruction of their lost legal documents, such as death certificates, marriage licenses, death certificates, etc. The assistance given was the reproduction of National Statistics Office forms, and information, education and communication materials such as primers and tarpaulins.

CHALLENGES

The lack of scale of recovery shelter and transitional settlement options are factors prolonging displacement. Solutions must include the rapid scale-up of recovery shelter provision for those in so-called “build zones” while at the same time ensuring appropriate transitional sites and solutions are found for those in “No-Dwelling Zones”. The lack of clarity on the implementation of the No-Dwelling Zone policy leads to protracted displacement and prospective new caseload of displaced families. There is also a pressing need to begin to identify land and support for long-term, durable solutions for permanent return and/or relocation to avoid recurrent or prolonged displacement.

Background on the crisisTyphoon Haiyan (known locally as Yolanda) swept through the central Philippines on 8 November, killing over 6,000 people and displacing some 4 million people, flattening homes and damaging schools, health centres and other infrastructure. Some experts estimate the storm was among the strongest ever to make landfall. On 9 November, the Government accepted the UN offer of international assistance. The Government also welcomed the deployment, in the initial phase of disaster response, of a large number of countries’ military assets. The humanitarian community’s one-year Strategic Response Plan calling for $788 million has been released and is closely aligned to the Government’s Yolanda Recovery and Rehabilitation Plan launched on 18 December.

Six months after Typhoon Haiyan, three Communications with Communities (CwC) good practices or models were achieved. In Tacloban and eastern Leyte, the largest working group established to date has an enhanced capacity to implement various CwC activities. In Guiuan and the province of Eastern Samar, the CwC working group has operated as a service provider to humanitarian partners for disseminating key messaging and gathering community feedback to enhance the

humanitarian response. In Ormoc and western Leyte, CwC was positioned as the conduit to affected communities, barangay councils and civil society organizations (CSOs) through community consultations and working with the Protection Cluster.

The working groups (WGs) have collaborated with the Philippine Information Agency and other media groups, and CSOs have been proactive as well, reaching the most affected, marginalized, vulnerable, and least visible and less vocal members of the community through face-to-face communications and media such as radio and print.

As radio/TV stations, mobile phone signals and Internet connections have been restored to most affected areas, the role of the WGs will be to maximize both traditional and new technology communication channels for effective CwC in the coming months. Apart from prepositioning CwC in the preparedness and contingency planning of the local government units (LGUs), the end-goal is to create a resilient community environment.

OVERVIEW


As the Haiyan response moves into the early recovery and reconstruction phase, the need for CwC to be mainstreamed across municipalities is crucial. Government agencies, CSOs and even media groups need technical support for strategic communications planning. This includes using existing culturally appropriate and acceptable two-way communication strategies for communities.

CwC as an aid and service was instrumental in establishing an enabling environment for humanitarian actors to work together to communicate and be accountable to affected populations. However, sustaining the capacity of humanitarian actors in providing appropriate information and feedback remains a great challenge.

COMMUNICATIONS WITH COMMUNITIES


As of 14 May 2014

14 May 2014

To date, 8,000 radios were distributed in Tacloban (and the eastern part of Leyte), Eastern Samar province, Ormoc (and the western part of Leyte) and Roxas. CwC continues to advocate to other humanitarian agencies to include radios in non-food item kits, including as part of early recovery interventions. CwC continues to advocate for and assist in organizing community feedback consultations in Tacloban and eastern Leyte, stressing the importance of two-way communication as aid and as a form of accountability to affected populations.

The provision of technical support to clusters and LGUs in the process of integrating CwC into their plans and programmes is ongoing. As part of transition planning, the respective CwC WG will do another 3W (Who does What Where) mapping of all new CwC-related initiatives across the Eastern Visayas region.

CwC WGs will continue producing a series of briefing notes on early recovery interventions. The focus will be on livelihoods, cash transfer programming, disaster preparedness and risk reduction, shelter and relocation plans. CwC is working closely with Accountability to Affected Populations programming and the WGs have combined in many areas to reflect the close subject matter and common membership.

KEY CHALLENGES

CwC WGs must commit to improving the accessibility of information and communication services to affected communities. As a conduit to humanitarian actors, affected populations, CSOs, media and government agencies, CwC is the custodian of crucial information for affected communities. The CwC WG recently used agency staff in the dissemination of information by providing briefings on key issues for the humanitarian community.

Mainstreaming community feedback and improving referral pathways in Eastern Samar poses a challenge. Considering only a few CwC organizations and practitioners are currently working in the area, mobilizing them would take several months.

There remains a challenge as far as how to appropriately communicate with the affected communities regarding the message distinguishing “Safe Zones versus Unsafe Zones” and identifying “No-Dwelling Zones”. The same goes with reaching the GIDAs (communities with populations that are physically and socioeconomically separated from the mainstream) in Eastern Samar. The respective CwC WG will continue to coordinate its strategy and plans with the Shelter, CCCM and Protection Clusters (including the Protection Monitoring Relocation Taskforce) and the LGUs on the best way to communicate these issues and provide the necessary feedback platform.

OVERVIEW

Monitoring and reports have revealed that many children in relocation sites have stopped going to school because of the distance to school, lack of finance, trauma and other vulnerability issues. A rapid assessment conducted in conjunction with the Camp Coordination and Camp Management Cluster found that 60 per cent of these children are boys and over half the total number are high-school aged. DepEd and cluster partners are working to validate and assess the needs, in order to continue supporting catch-up learning programmes to successfully reintegrate out-of-school children into school and support their continued learning. Otherwise they will be at risk of not returning at all or subsequently dropping out.

There are more than 2,500 (totally and partially) damaged schools and more than 800 day-care centres partially or totally damaged. Although plans to repair and reconstruct all damaged classrooms and day-care centres are sought, there is an urgent need to reinforce temporary classrooms operating under tents and tarpaulins before the next typhoon season to avoid further destruction and disruption of schooling. Teachers and education personnel need to be trained on education in emergencies, and the resilience of schools and the education system needs to be strengthened in anticipation of future disasters.


Typhoon Haiyan caused extensive damage to schools and loss of school equipment and learning materials when it swept through the central Philippines on 8 November 2013.

According to data provided by the Department of Education (DepEd), more than 90 per cent of students are back in school, with lower rates for high schools. In preparation for the new school year beginning in June 2014, Education Cluster partners are using the summer holiday period to scale up the repair and reconstruction of classrooms and day-care centres and the establishment of makeshift classrooms. Training activities for teachers and day-care workers are also ongoing during

the summer break. In addition, summer catch-up classes, entitled “Summer Fun in School”, are being conducted to selected schools to better address the learning and psychosocial needs of children whose education has been disrupted since the Typhoon.

The Education Cluster is collaborating with DepEd and the Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) on the “Back to Learning Campaign” to ensure that all children, including those children affected by Typhoon Yolanda, can fully resume schooling and day-care services in June.

EDUCATION CLUSTER

CLUSTER RESPONSE

DepEd, DSWD and the Education Cluster are cooperating to ensure that all children can resume their schooling in June. The Back to Learning Campaign is being organized in conjunction with DepEd’s Brigada Eskwela Plus campaign on 21 May and is part of the larger effort to encourage children to return to school after the summer break by using communications and messaging to engage children, youth, parents and community networks at the barangay level.

Over 4,200 temporary learning spaces (TLS) have been established by Education Cluster partners and over 515,000 preschool and school-aged children (3-17 years) and teachers have received teaching, learning and recreational materials. Cluster partners are also accelerating the training of education personnel on Education in Emergencies, including on psychosocial support and/or disaster risk reduction (DRR); a total of 3,900 education officials have been trained to date.

DepEd and cluster partners have been working together to run the “Summer Fun in School” (catch-up learning) programme in Region VIII during the summer holidays to reintegrate out-of-school children, address children’s psychosocial needs, and bridge the learning gap in various subject areas for children whose education has been disrupted across the Typhoon-affected region. The programme takes place in a more relaxed atmosphere than formal classrooms, focusing on literacy, numeracy, DRR and life skills mixed with recreational activities. In conjunction with the Child Protection Working Group, the Education Cluster completed a joint assessment to identify reasons for children not attending schools, gain feedback from key informants on the current education response and inform future programming.

CHALLENGES

In Region VIII, four schools are still being utilized as evacuation centres (ECs) in Tacloban City and currently house 578 families. The numbers of internally displaced people in the schools are dropping as families found alternative accommodation. The Education Cluster is working with the CCCM, Shelter and Protection clusters and DSWD to ensure that no family has been forcibly evicted from the schools, that children’s protection issues are addressed, and that alternative solutions are prioritized for those unable to leave ECs. The Cluster, in collaboration with DSWD, is providing messaging to all the caregivers/parents in bunkhouse facilities to continue sending children to school while assuring caregivers/parents that local public school heads welcome the placement/enrolment of children.

Forty-six day-care centers in Tacloban City have not reopened since Yolanda due to the unavailability of day-care workers’ salaries, leaving approximately 1,500 children without early childhood care and development, which could harm their development later on.

There is a general sense that livelihood activities are lacking and concern regarding the seasonality of income sources has been raised by communities. The urgency to fast-track alternative and sustainable livelihoods and provide information on how to access opportunities needs to be communicated to local groups. In Roxas, community consultations have indicated fatigue with short-term assistance. The preference is for livelihood interventions with longer-term impact. Many have requested capital to start small-scale economic activities. Also, vulnerable groups such as women and the elderly have expressed their need to be included and provided with livelihood support. Unless funds are raised and livelihood programmes accelerated, the situation may lead to renewed humanitarian needs. In addition, many local government units (LGUs) have been seriously affected, particularly in Region VIII, and the lack of resources is hindering the delivery of basic services and recovery planning. Strengthening of DRR systems requires a systematic and comprehensive approach and it should be informed by lessons from the Haiyan response.

OVERVIEW


Typhoon Haiyan caused extensive damage to livelihoods, leaving local economies vulnerable and joblessness rampant. An estimated 5.9 million workers lost their sources of income and livelihoods, of which 60 per cent were men and 40 per cent women. An estimated 49 per cent worked in the service sector, which includes retail, trade, transportation, accommodation and food service. The industry sector, including mining, manufacturing, electricity, water supply and construction, accounted for 13 per cent of the employed, while the agriculture, forestry and fishing sectors comprised 38 per cent. Even before Haiyan, 2.6 million people were already in vulnerable types of employment. Many micro, small and medium enterprises were destroyed or unable to continue, with assets lost and capital depleted.

The immediate early recovery objective is to help individuals return to normalcy by providing much-needed livelihoods through immediate short-term employment for debris-clearing activities and the repair and reconstruction of public infrastructure and urban economic structures. It then shifts to providing more sustainable sources of income through skills training and support for enterprise recovery with the aim of gradually giving men and women decent work. The Typhoon also raised the concern over linkages between disasters and climate change and thus the need to improve Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR) systems, especially at the municipal and barangay levels.

EARLY RECOVERY AND LIVELIHOODS CLUSTER

CLUSTER RESPONSE

As of 30 April, a total of 97,448 people have either been targeted for or completed ongoing and planned activities of Strategic Response Plan members under the Early Recovery and Livelihood (ER&L) Cluster. Fifty-eight per cent (58%) of those who benefitted were men and 42 per cent were women. Of these, 78,587 people completed immediate short-term employment, while 18,861 were provided with livelihood support such as skills training and micro-enterprise assistance implemented by cluster members across Regions IV–B, VI, VII and VIII. The purchase of local materials and services and its multiplier effect stimulated local economies, while capacity-building for improved basic service delivery and DRR has reached 16 LGUs. Debris-clearing activities resulted in renewed access and the restoration of 589 schools, 33 hospitals, 223 rural health-care units, 529 barangay/municipal halls, 545 day-care centres, 1,472 km of road, 1,139 km of drainage canals, 50 dump sites, and 323 other public places including churches, public markets, bus terminals, slaughterhouses, waiting sheds and chapels. Although debris-clearing of fallen coconut trees will continue to be a priority, there is a gradual shift to increasing alternative sources of income through skills and micro-enterprise development for the most vulnerable groups.

Infrastructure repairs, including on barangay halls and government facilities, continues. Market assessments and the identification of key economic sectors using a value-chain approach are being pursued. ER&L Cluster members are supporting LGUs and community-based organizations in rehabilitation planning and providing capacity-building through DRR orientation and workshops. The Cluster is developing enhanced 3W maps and tables that include ongoing and planned activities of local governments and partner organizations.

CHALLENGES

ER&L activities are underfunded, with 27 per cent received out of the $117 million required. For programmes that are funded, there is a lack of systems and consistency in communicating with communities on the types of livelihood programmes available and the criteria for selecting beneficiaries. Accountability to affected populations needs to be further institutionalized and integrated into programmes. Other challenges include encouraging implementing partners to ensure that minimum wages and social protection benefits are provided for emergency employment participants. There is inadequate information on key employment-generating industries and requirements for skilled workers in each region. There is limited local government capacity in disaster risk management and limited planning and information on vulnerability and hazard mapping. It is also important to strategize the transition from early recovery to full recovery and sustainable development, taking into account pre-disaster poverty conditions.

Emergency Telecommunications Cluster (ETC) activities in the Philippines have now come to a close. The ETC was activated to provide security communications, Internet connectivity and coordination services to the humanitarian community after Typhoon Haiyan severely disrupted national telecommunications capacity.

With the World Food Programme (WFP) as the lead agency, ETC partners, including emergency.lu, Ericsson Response, the Swedish Civil Contingencies Agency, IrishAid, Save the Children, Plan International, OCHA, GSMA, Global VSAT Forum and NetHope (and their partner BT), supported the provision of shared communications services with personnel, equipment, information and operating space.

Commercial telecommunications providers are now operational in almost all areas. Emergency equipment has been demobilized and the ETC has migrated humanitarian organizations from short-term emergency Internet infrastructure to local services. Radio communications services have been handed over the United Nations Department of Safety and Security (UNDSS).

OVERVIEW


CLUSTER RESPONSE

In the six months since Typhoon Haiyan devastated much of the central Philippines, the ETC provided vital emergency telecommunications services to the humanitarian community responding to the crisis. At the height of the response, the ETC was providing Internet services in 33 locations across 11 towns and cities. Over 6,500 humanitarian workers registered to use ETC wireless networks, the highest number ever recorded. Radio telecommunications, ICT helpdesk, printing and coordination services were also delivered.

The ETC will continue to contribute to the preparedness capacity of the Filipino Government. Telecommunications and data connectivity equipment has been handed over to WFP in the Philippines to assist with emergency training and it will be prepositioned in three locations to facilitate a rapid response to future crises.

An estimated 5.6 million people are in need of life-saving food assistance and support to prevent food insecurity and restore agricultural and fishing livelihoods. Food Security and Agriculture Cluster (FSAC) partners need to help over a quarter of a million vulnerable small-scale farmers (in the coconut sector) build alternative livelihoods through intercropping, crop diversification, and livestock or poultry-raising activities.

The most vulnerable rainfed and upland rice farmers and corn farmers need support for the May to June planting season through the provision of certified rice and corn seeds and fertilizer. In terms of food assistance, the emergency relief phase has phased out and operations have transitioned into targeted and conditional assistance (cash-for-assets and food-for-assets) to reach the most vulnerable groups.

OVERVIEW


The agriculture and fisheries sectors were devastated when Typhoon Haiyan swept through the central Philippines on 8 November 2013. Coconut farming suffered the most, especially in Eastern Visayas where an estimated 33 million trees were damaged or destroyed and more than a million coconut farmers were affected. Replanted coconut trees will take six to eight years to return to full production.

The immense damage to the fisheries sector spans the entire value chain, from catch to market, with the destruction including everything from fishing boats and gears, aquaculture ponds, onshore facilities and markets, to seaweed farming. About 30,000 fishing boats were damaged, of which 10,000 were completely destroyed.

FOOD AND AGRICULTURE CLUSTER

CLUSTER RESPONSE

Working closely with the Government, especially the Department of Social Welfare and Development, figures show that FSAC members reached 3.65 million affected people through the distribution of immediate food assistance. Nearly 759,000 people were also targeted though unconditional cash transfers. The well-coordinated response has had a positive impact; the total percentage of the target population with a household food consumption score of greater than 42 increased from 68 per cent in December to 77 per cent in the monitoring period. After consultations with key stakeholders, general food distributions were scaled down in March/April to target the most vulnerable groups such as the elderly, not able-bodied workers and those living in remote, hard-to-reach islands with limited market access. Cash-for-assets activities will commence in May targeting approximately 40,000 households in Eastern Samar (Eastern Visayas) and Aklan Province (Western Visayas).

Some 80,000 farmers benefited from the distribution of seeds and UREA fertilizer. Post-distribution monitoring was conducted for 44,000 beneficiary farmers in Regions VI and VIII (Western and Eastern Visayas). Based on estimates, by June the 44,000 farming households monitored should harvest enough milled rice to feed 800,000 people for a year. Support is being provided to an additional 6,800 rice and corn farmers for the May/June planting season. Cluster partners are working to secure the means to help affected households build alternative livelihoods, and planned activities will enable around 30,000 affected households across Regions IV-B, VI and VIII to secure regular income and restore self-sufficiency, building resilience to withstand future disasters.

On average, two kits of assorted vegetable seeds are being provided to supported households. Farming production support, including the provision of post-harvest equipment and carabao (water buffalo) as draft animals, will help farmer groups rebuild their livelihoods. Activities targeting women farmers’ groups include supplying them with small start-up food processing equipment. To date, cluster partners have distributed 9,700 fertilizer bags in Region VI, 55,229 fertilizer bags in Region VIII and 4,663 fertilizer bags in Region IV-B. Cluster partners also distributed 5,250 hand-farming tools in Region VI, and now, in close collaboration with the Department of Agrarian Reform, the beneficiary criteria towards the distribution of another 3,000 hand-farming tools in Region VIII are being finalized. A further 5,000 hand-farming tools will be distributed in Region IV-B.

Major gaps in funding for livelihood recovery activities targeting coconut farmers stand in the way of meaningful recovery. Small-scale coconut farmers are among the most severely affected and poorest communities in the Philippines and need urgent support. As a result, there is an increasing gap in support to livelihoods as food assistance scales down.

Cluster partners will provide nearly 17,000 fisher households with key fishing gears and activities ranging from boat-building trainings to post-harvest and aquaculture. Due to the damaging effects of traditional hardwood boat keels to natural resources, hybrid prototype boats will be developed and cluster partners plan to train fisherfolk on how to build, maintain and repair both fibreglass and wooden boats. A survey will be conducted targeting fisher households to establish the baseline to compare the progress of interventions in the fisheries sector. Coconut and fisheries Technical Working Groups like those in Region VIII are being established in Region VI to coordinate work in these areas of intervention. Cluster partners are also collaborating with the Forest Management Bureau to rehabilitate agroforestry and mangroves to support nearly 5,000 vulnerable small-scale upland farmers with agricultural inputs, including fruit tree seedlings.

CLUSTER RESPONSE

There is a critical need for further environmental clean-up with a focus on removing all disused containers, tyres and other debris, where stagnant water can accumulate and provide a breeding place for mosquitoes. All organizations and people are strongly advised to develop and promote strategies to raise public awareness on the importance of participating in mosquito-density-reduction activities to control dengue.

All containers that hold water, including cement tanks and plastic drums used to harvest rainwater, should be treated according to Department of Health (DoH) and World Health Organization (WHO) guidelines and cleaned regularly.

OVERVIEW


The level of devastation and damages to infrastructure caused by Typhoon Haiyan had a severe impact on the provision of health services, which are now gradually being restored. The rainy season is fast approaching, however, and preventative measures need to be taken now to minimize, as much as possible, the conditions that allow for the spread of dengue fever.

HEALTH CLUSTER

CLUSTER RESPONSE

The response to dengue following Typhoon Yolanda has been multifaceted. Cash-for-work programmes have been implemented to assist in the clearance of debris (where mosquitoes may breed), refresher training has been implemented for limited numbers of clinicians, and training has started for sanitary inspectors to assist them in recognizing mosquito types and the most effective way to respond when suspect dengue cases are reported. In addition, enhanced surveillance has been implemented in some areas to assist in gathering a baseline of the number of dengue cases across Yolanda-affected areas of Region VIII. The mapping of identified suspect cases has also assisted in targeting mosquito-reduction activities in real time.

A shared dengue preparedness and response plan for Region VIII, in order to mitigate the health risks associated with outbreaks and the spread of dengue and to prioritize interventions for maximum effect is currently in its final phase of preparation. The Health Cluster is working in collaboration with DoH, Health and Hygiene Promotion coordinators, and other partners and has secured funding for initial trainings and the purchase of Information, Education, Communication (IEC) materials and technical equipment.

The Cluster also remains committed to supporting Dengue Barangay brigade re-establishment to increase community-level participation in the fight against the deadly disease.

CHALLENGES

With the Oxfam medical team working in Leyte terminating their services in a few weeks, it is not clear that there is sufficient health staff available to meet the expected increase in dengue fever cases. The training of health-care workers to support them in gaining an understanding of the standards and procedures for managing reported dengue cases is also needed, to address potential gaps in service delivery.

OVERVIEW

CLUSTER RESPONSE

Operating out of six strategic locations (Manila, Cebu, Tacloban, Guiuan, Roxas and Ormoc), the Cluster carried out the following actions:

• There was 5,132 Metric Tons of humanitarian cargo shipped through the Coastal Shipping Service.• There were 244 flights carrying 3,148 passengers and serving 82 humanitarian partners as well as 12 Metric Tons of cargo carried by the United

Nations Humanitarian Air Service.• There were air dispatches through military assets, with 117 requests resulting in 146 shipments comprising of 823 Metric Tons of freight on 84 flights

through eight different air forces. Thirty-four humanitarian organizations were served. The primary relief items dispatched were on behalf of the Shelter, WASH, Food / Nutrition and Health Clusters.

• There was 28,297 Metric Tons of cargo transported by road with the use of 1,164 trucks.• The Cluster received 239 requests for warehouse space and provided storage at strategically located warehouses. Storage facilities comprised of

mobile storage units (MSUs) and fixed structures in the following locations and with the following dimensions: Tacloban = 1200 M2; Ormoc = 5,760 M2; Guiuan = 5200M2; Cebu = 540 M2; and Roxas = 1500M2 undercover and 1500 M2 open storage.

• A total of 4,185 Metric Tons of relief cargo was stored on behalf of the humanitarian community. • Eight logistics-related assessments were carried out.• Service requests for the use of cargo-handling equipment in the Guiuan, Roxas, Tacloban and Palo hubs were received and fulfilled for nine

humanitarian organizations. • Eighty-two operational maps comprising routes and operations were produced for use by the humanitarian community.• The Logistics Cluster implemented logistics operational training sessions developing partners’ capacity through the transferring of knowledge (total

number of people trained: 145; total number trained in Tacloban: 118; total number trained in Roxas: 27). These included the Logistics Cluster Standard Operating Procedures Training (in Tacloban) and the Certification of Forklift Operators by the Technical Education and Skills Development Authority (in Tacloban and Roxas).

• The Logistics Cluster implemented trainings for which the following certificates were issued: i. Generator Use and Maintenance; ii. Warehouse Management in Emergency Operations; iii. First Aid and GPS Training; iv. Logistics Cluster Basic Induction Training.

On the national supply chain:

• Infrastructure and commercial logistics services in the Typhoon-affected areas were developed to better serve the humanitarian communities’ overarching needs. This was evident in the increased availability of road transport and the rehabilitation of commercial warehouses in the regions.

• Operating out of Tacloban, the Cluster continues to: support partners within Regions VI and VII by facilitating and identifying access to key services in the logistics supply chain; contribute to the development of sustainable logistics services through local and regional organizations; help identify strategic, fixed and moveable assets; and foster information-sharing among partners and humanitarian organizations.

• The humanitarian warehouse hub at Palo, supported with cargo-handling equipment, was decommissioned in March, with MSUs, pallets and supporting cargo-handling equipment shipped to the strategically located warehouse storage hub in Cebu, which is in close proximity to port gateways.

• A number of organizations that loaned MSUs returned the equipment to the Cluster, which has also been transported to Cebu for storage.

The Nutrition Cluster developed a Strategic Response Plan (SRP) to guide the implementation of nutrition services in 81 municipalities in three regions (VI, VII and VIII) that were identified by the Department of Health (DoH) as priority areas affected by Typhoon Haiyan (locally named “Yolanda”) when it struck on 8 November 2013. Nutrition in Emergencies (NiE) activities have focused on

the protection, promotion and support of Infant and Young Child Feeding (IYCF), the treatment and prevention of acute malnutrition, and micronutrient supplementation, including the capacity development of nutrition and health workers.

The Cluster convened a workshop in April to plan for recovery phase transition and to initiate a revision of the SRP to increase the focus on preventative interventions targeting the 1,000 days window of opportunity for improved maternal and child nutrition outcomes. The programmatic shift was informed by the results of a nutrition survey using the SMART methodology and is considered cost-effective, sustainable and more likely to reduce rates of morbidity and mortality, as well as acute and chronic malnutrition. Preparedness measures are a priority, including systems strengthening and the establishment of community-based nutrition surveillance. The management of acute malnutrition will be continued in strategic locations with an appropriate referral system.

OVERVIEW

NUTRITION CLUSTER

Pre-Typhoon Haiyan rates of children with acute malnutrition account for the high initial targets set by the Nutrition Cluster early in the response.1

Cluster targets have since been recalibrated with new data that is reflected in the forthcoming Periodic Monitoring Review of the Haiyan response. Some 320,000 boys and girls aged 0-59 months and up to 210,000 pregnant and lactating women comprise the population subset from which the Cluster has calculated its targets. It is estimated that approximately 2,500 boys and girls aged 6-59 months in the priority areas will suffer from severe acute malnutrition, and up to 12,000 pregnant and lactating women will suffer from moderate acute malnutrition within a year from the onset of the Typhoon.


CLUSTER RESPONSE

Counselling services for appropriate IYCF practices are a determinant of the survival and lifelong development opportunities of a child. Targets for IYCF counselling (167,500 pregnant women and mothers/caregivers of children aged 0-23 months) remain high when compared with the achievements to date (46,150, or 25 per cent of mothers/caregivers). Women have been reached using the network of community health and nutrition volunteers, baby-friendly spaces, and mother support groups, and this activity can potentially reach scale through the Cluster’s integrated community-based nutrition response strategy (CNRS). Implementing partners are now distributing sachets of micronutrient supplements for 150,000 boys and girls, which will improve the quality of complementary foods throughout the “lean season” (July - September). Meanwhile, government partners continue to roll out routine vitamin A supplementation for children, deworming of mothers and children, and iron-folic acid supplementation for pregnant women.

The management of acute malnutrition for children aged 6-59 months is on track, with 47 per cent of the 12-month target for the admission of “severe” cases for treatment (1,237 severe cases) having been reached. Further screening is likely to increase the caseload beyond the targets calculated. To date, over 11,121 cases of acute malnutrition were identified, including 1,172 classified as “severe” and 9,949 as “moderate”. The aforementioned preventative measures aim to limit moderate cases from progressing to a severe status.

Cluster partners are leading a series of Training of Trainer activities for community health and nutrition workers to implement core NiE activities, including screening for malnutrition, referral to rural health units and other sites for the management of acute malnutrition, the distribution of vitamin A, micronutrient supplementation and the delivery of counselling services promoting optimal IYCF practices. The Nutrition Cluster is also supporting the Government with strengthening information systems in terms of its emergency and routine nutrition surveillance (Operation Timbang). Trainings are being planned with government partners on cluster coordination and information management, nutrition assessment using the SMART Survey methodology, and the foundation of NiE.

1. The National Nutrition Survey 2011 identified a Global Acute Malnutrition (GAM) rate of 7.8 per cent in Eastern Visayas (Region VIII). However, the recent SMART Survey of typhoon-affected areas in Regions VI, VII and VIII (March 2014) confirmed a GAM rate of 4.1 per cent.

Good maternal and child health and nutrition requires a measured and concerted effort; for example, behaviour change through IYCF counselling involves targeted messaging and follow up. Measuring changes in nutrition status and behaviour requires an appropriate and sustainable nutrition surveillance system. The current challenge in this regard is building a common vision, a standardized system of information management and a well-coordinated community mobilization strategy for follow up.

The Cluster still faces challenges in maintaining standard practices with the management of acute malnutrition as the Philippine Integrated Management of Acute Malnutrition (PIMAM) guidelines have not yet been approved by the National Department of Health. There are inroads, however, as Region VIII recently brokered an agreement with the regional Department of Health and reached a signed agreement on use of the draft PIMAM guidelines.

The preliminary results of a Protection Needs Assessment in Region VIII identified the following protection issues: a) lack of income-generating activities, b) damaged shelter and Housing, Land and Property (HLP) issues, c) lack of civil documentation, and d) lack of access to basic facilities. A joint assessment by Education and Child Protection (CP) partners also identified high rates of stress and behavioural change in children. Eighty per cent of districts surveyed reported behavioural changes in children, including fear of weather, crying and screaming.

OVERVIEW


Typhoon Haiyan swept through the central Philippines on 8 November, killing over 6,000 people and displacing some 4 million, including 789,000 children. It caused extensive damage to property and public social networks, destroying more than 550,000 homes. This raised important concerns for the safety of affected persons, especially those vulnerable to protection risks, including children, women, girls, the elderly, persons with disabilities, indigenous peoples and those displaced as a consequence of the Typhoon.

The Protection Cluster established hubs in Borongan, Cebu, Guiuan, Ormoc, Roxas and Tacloban. It is led by the Department for Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) and co-chaired by UNHCR and has 97 members. In accordance with global standards, sub-clusters on gender-based violence (co-chaired by UNFPA) and child protection (co-chaired by UNICEF) are an integral part of the Cluster.

PROTECTION CLUSTER

CLUSTER RESPONSE

In Tacloban, the Protection Cluster has initiated an inter-agency Task Force to monitor the relocation of IDPs and affected people to transitional sites (e.g., bunkhouses) and sites for permanent housing. The Task Force also monitors the evacuation centres and places of origin, such as “No-Dwelling Zones”. Similar monitoring mechanisms exist in other parts of Leyte, Samar, and in Region VI and VII. The Cluster has also initiated a Municipal Protection Profile to gather baseline protection data in Haiyan-affected areas.

The Free and Mobile Civil Registration project, carried out in 20 of the most affected municipalities, is making progress, with more than 44,000 documents having been processed out of a total target of 100,000.

The CP Sub-Cluster has reached 93,166 children (approximately 47,670 girls and 45,496 boys) with psychosocial support activities through 12 partners in 47 municipalities. It is active in 60 municipalities, covering needs in thematic areas such as child psychosocial distress, child labour, sexual violence, family separation and trafficking. About 1,031 front-line workers, including government officials, social workers, police officers and community members, were trained in a range of child protection in emergencies issues such as child-friendly spaces (CFS) standards and operations, family tracing and reunification, anti-trafficking and protection in displacement sites.

The Gender Based Violence (GBV) Sub-Cluster has established 22 women-friendly spaces (WFS) in 19 affected municipalities to help women and girls have a safe space to carry out activities ranging from skills training and psychosocial support. In addition, 261 local women facilitators, along with local officials, were trained to support running the WFS. Some 379 GBV awareness sessions were organized for affected populations, benefitting 32,577 women, girls, men and boys. Three community GBV watch groups composed of local women leaders were established. The watch groups will be on regular duty, augmenting existing security teams at the barangay level. To improve health services for rape survivors, four trainings benefitting 111 health-care professionals were organized.

CHALLENGES

Protection Cluster co-leadership responsibilities are gradually being handed over to the Philippines Commission on Human Rights (PCHR). The transition has already taken place in Regions VI and VII, with continued capacity-building as well as administrative and financial support, but it is more of a challenge in Region VIII where the PCHR’s capacity was directly affected by the Typhoon.

The CP joint assessment identified a number of significant gaps in the CP response to Haiyan. Many of the gaps reflected activities that were foreseen in the Strategic Response Plan (SRP) but were not part of the programmatic response of CP partners. A workshop from 13-15 May in Tacloban reviewed the CP Plan of Action in light of the needs assessment findings and gaps in meeting SRP targets, and made programming adjustments to bridge some of the gaps.

Meanwhile, the CP Sub-Cluster has established five technical working groups (TWGs) focusing on key areas of concern: anti-trafficking (in cooperation with GBV), adolescent protection, children in need of special protection, strengthening of the Barangay Council for the Protection of Children, and CFS harmonization. The initial findings of the TWGs will also feed into the mid-term review at the Tacloban workshop.

There is a need to continue advocating for a female police presence in relocation sites and bunkhouses: the services rendered by permanently-stationed female police officers supported by the GBV Sub-Cluster ended in March. This has created a vacuum in the bunkhouses currently being addressed by roving female police officers and barangay security guards.

OVERVIEW

Due to the scale and intensity of the Typhoon, the affected people are facing an ongoing shelter crisis that is expected to last well beyond 2014. Despite the rapid progress made by survivors with the support of the Government and humanitarian organizations, more than 2 million people remain at risk and without durable shelter.

While the Shelter Cluster found that many households have been able to repair or rebuild their homes to a point where they will provide protection from rain, many of these homes will not be able to withstand a major storm. There are also a number of people who are still living in decaying emergency shelters and are unable to recover without further assistance.

In addition, the Camp Coordination and Camp Management Cluster has found that many evacuation centres are still unusable. This means that many families will have no safe place to stay in the event of another typhoon. As the next typhoon season approaches, there is a high risk that this will lead to a new humanitarian crisis.


Typhoon Haiyan severely damaged or destroyed more than 1 million homes when it swept through the Philippines on 8 November 2013. This figure equates to more than 5 million people.

In response to the disaster, the Government has asked humanitarian organizations to address the shelter needs of 500,000 households. The remaining families will be assisted directly by the Government. The Shelter Cluster in the Philippines is led by the Government and co-led by the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies.

SHELTER CLUSTER

CLUSTER RESPONSE

During the first six months of the response, Shelter Cluster partners provided emergency shelter materials such as tents and tarpaulins to more than 570,000 households (close to 3 million people). In addition, more than 133,000 households (approximately 675,000 people) have received tools as well as building and roofing materials that enable families to repair their own homes. A representative assessment has shown that 85 per cent of households who have received shelter assistance are satisfied with it.

Shelter Cluster partners also distributed 500,000 household non-food items such as blankets and mats, as well as close to 150,000 kitchen sets. Together with other clusters, the Shelter Cluster has been active in advising on a range of issues connected with housing, land and property rights. This includes guidance on relocation and beneficiary selection.

The Cluster is currently revising its guidelines on minimal standards for shelter recovery and is upgrading its guidance on key elements for building back safer in local languages. So far, 210,000 households have been reached with “Building Back Safer” messages.

CHALLENGES

The Government has recently adjusted its proposed blanket policy on No-Dwelling Zones and local authorities will now evaluate the situation based on hazards risk mapping. The Shelter Cluster welcomes this move. However, it is concerned that the discussion around No-Dwelling Zones continues to focus on very limited options for resettlement. The Cluster urges all stakeholders to prioritize alternative risk mitigation measures and to consider resettlement as only one possibility out of a range of options.

Additional challenges include the ongoing lack of good quality building materials. The Cluster also found that there are significant geographic differences in the degree to which building back safer techniques have been used by the survivors.

WATER, SANITATION AND HYGIENE CLUSTER



14 May 2014

Over the past six months, significant achievements were made in both the timely response of immediate life-saving aid and the provision of sustainable access to water, sanitation, and hygiene and health services. The absence of significant public health outbreaks is a reflection of the strong, coordinated public health response that was supported by adequate early warning surveillance. The Water, Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH) and Health Clusters started transitioning from life-saving interventions to early recovery planning and implementation in December 2013. This included not only the restoration of communal- and household-level water and sanitation facilities and healthcare infrastructure, but also the strengthening of governance and resilience capacities at local levels.

Jointly led by the Department of Health (DoH) and supported by partners, decentralized WASH and Health coordination systems have been established at regional, provincial and municipal levels. These Clusters are working together to provide access to essential preventive and curative services and to identify and respond to suspected disease outbreaks and other potential health risks. Significant investment has been directed towards the capacity-building of government staff at all levels. Improvements are evident in some areas; however, significant efforts are still required before the Clusters can fully transfer their responsibilities to the respective government counterparts.

As a part of the Sanitation Strategy, a WASH survey will commence, collecting detailed WASH data across 80 affected municipalities. The survey will assist in providing a clearer picture of gaps at the barangay level. The results are expected to show that coverage is lacking in remote hinterland and western Leyte municipalities compared to the eastern coastal municipalities of Leyte and parts of Eastern Samar. This will hopefully support the need to upscale household sanitation across the affected areas. Although emergency WASH needs are mostly met across the response, the rehabilitation of household sanitation facilities and increasing sanitation coverage to those areas which had low coverage prior to Yolanda remain priorities.

OVERVIEW


CLUSTER RESPONSE

The WASH Cluster has surpassed the humanitarian aid targets set for both Water and Sanitation across the response areas, achieved through the provision of one-month, family Water Kits and Hygiene Kits to more than 1.3 and 1.8 million persons respectively. Overall baseline studies have shown that the geographic distribution of emergency supplies was extensive, with 80.9 per cent of the 1,181 barangays surveyed declaring that their barangay received family hygiene kits, while 80.8 per cent had received water containers. Water disinfectant distribution covered 71.8 per cent of the assessed barangays and hygiene promotion activities 64.7 per cent.

Reflecting the swift transition from emergency to early recovery, the WASH key output indicators and respective targets have been reset to better reflect sustainable outputs such as water infrastructure upgrades (L1, 2 and 3), and WASH committees have been established at the barangay level with the aim of strengthening sustainable WASH governance through improved community participation, feedback and accountability.

To date, close to 220,000 people or 34 per cent of the target have been reached - a significant increase compared to the three-month mark, when only 8 per cent of the target population had been reached. The WASH baseline survey has shown that 9.3 per cent of private latrines were lost in Leyte during the Typhoon, 11.5 per cent in Samar, and 0.9 per cent in Cebu. However, as a result of interventions, particularly the construction of emergency communal latrines (typically one for every four households) to minimize open defecation, post-Haiyan access to sanitation facilities (private or communal latrines) has reached 60.6 per cent of the population, which is almost equivalent to the pre-Typhoon figure of 63.7 per cent for the baseline area. Seventeen more WASH committees have been established on Bantayan Island and in Daan Bantayan, and latrine rehabilitation has started in Madridejos with 130 household latrines being rehabilitated.

CHALLENGES

Further strengthening of the local structures at all levels to help create an enabling environment for a resilient and sustainable WASH response is required. Most government staff members lack the resources for transport, email communication and sufficient human resources required to enable full utilization of the available capacity.

As the response transitions to early recovery and immediate direct assistance, particularly as food- and cash-for-work activities scale down, significant portions of the affected population are left with reduced household incomes; coupled with poor sanitation, they will also be more exposed to public health risks. That 13.6 per cent of L1 and 6.1 per cent of L2 water systems were non-functioning prior to the Typhoon, there is also a need to focus on their maintenance and governance to ensure sustainability and improved access.
