    Section(2:(Narrative(Summary)Background On May 23, 2017, violent clashes took place when the Armed Forces of the Philippines raided the hideout of a commander of Abu Sayaff, a local militant group that pledged allegiance to the ISIS, in Marawi City, Mindanao Island. Soon after the violent clashes, residents of Marawi and adjacent municipalities have evacuated to "safer" zones. According to the consolidated report of the Philippine Humanitarian Country Team (HCT) last June 7, 228,278 individuals have fled in various directions, northwards to Iligan City and Cagayan de Oro, or westward to nearby municipalities of Marantao and Balindaong. Of these, only 17,700 individuals (7.8%) are staying in evacuation centers (ECs) and more than 210,578 (92.2%) individuals are staying with relatives or concerned hosts in ARMM. Of those in ECs, it is estimated that half are in makeshift non-government accredited ECs. The number of IDPs are swelling as the area of coverage of the fighting is widening. IDPs do not prefer to stay in ECs because of issues on protection, health and sanitation, religion and cultural sensitivity. Most of the IDPs are women and children who hastily fled and did not bring with them extra food and clothes, sleeping items, and their identification cards, if they have one. Without these, the IDPs are more vulnerable to security risks, exposure to natural elements, hunger and disease, among others. Men who left Marawi came from communities heavily attacked by both the Maute group and the government. According to HCT as of June 6, around 2,000 individuals are estimated to have stayed or were left behind in Marawi City most of them men to protect their belongings, some wounded and critically-injured persons and the elderly and the sick from poor families that did not have the means to evacuate their relatives. Until this time, only the IFRC was given access by government to Marawi City to rescue civilians. While both civilians and military are being fired at, bias is being shown by the Maute group against Christians to drum up the conflict as a religious war. The Government through the Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) has already provided 606,454 USD of food and 1.1 million USD non-food items (dignity kits and hygiene kits). However, these are only concentrated in government designated evacuation centers in Iligan City, Bal-oi in Lanao del Norte, and Saguiaran and Malabang in Lanao del Sur. The greater gap is in the swelling number of home-based IDPs and in makeshift non-government accredited ECs. As violence continues on Mindanao Island, it is not clear when the IDPs can return to Marawi. Despite not being able to attend to over 90% of the IDPs needs, the Government has not called for international assistance. Only the ARMM has requested from the UN for augmentation. Food shortage will escalate after Ramadan, especially when farmers have lost their harvest and do not have resources to plant by July (corn) and September (rice). Recovery of IDPs will also be a serious concern as a large portion of the city has already been destroyed. The strong military response by the State also runs the risk of adding to social divisions, encouraging further radicalisation and long term destabilisation of the area (i.e. more violence and crisis). Considering the clannish character of the Maranaos, there is a very high tendency for post-crisis inter-clan violence as clans whose properties were damaged will seek retribution from clans from which the militants came from. The destruction of several mosques and madrasahs (educational institutions) could also intensify anti-government sentiments from moderate Islamic leaders who are already discontented with the Philippine State’s limitation on the implementation of the Shariah Law which could easily be used by the militants to expand its influence. Furthermore, the projected Muslim-Christian conflict will have a long-term impact, necessitating solidarity action from faith-based organizations such as ACT Alliance.

    Humanitarian)Needs)) Capacity)to)Respond))The NCCP and Christian Aid and their partners have been closely monitoring the situation and have conducted preliminary assessments in the affected areas. The results from the preliminary assessment show that the priority needs for the IDPs in various locations are the following •!Food security / livelihoods – IDPs can no longer

    meet their basic food needs and do not have access to income generating activities. As it is Ramadan, food needed for breaking the fast (Iftar and halal) foods are not provided in the regular food packs from the government.

    •!Non-food items – sleeping materials (malong and sleeping mats), cooking /kitchen sets.

    •!Water, Sanitation and Hygiene – lack or absence

    of potable water, basic hygiene items, and in many non-accredited evacuation centers and homes, water treatments and washing facilities are inexistent or insufficient due to high congestion in these areas. Moreover, washing facilities for the Muslim rituals are very important especially during Ramadan.

    •!Shelter – Homes are severely damaged or

    destroyed and no longer provide protection against weather and privacy for IDPs (especially an issue for women and children). Shelter kits will be provided to IDPs that have gone back to areas that have been declared safe.

    •!Security and protection – in affected regions of

    Mindanao Island, the “no-ID, no entry” rule is being enforced. Many of the IDPs left Marawi in a haste and were not able to bring their identification documents with them. Others do not possess one at all. IDPs in government-recognized evacuation centers are required to register. Some leave the evacuation centers because of this requirement to avoid being targeted in clan wars or are suspicious at how the information will be used. Awareness-raising on IDPs rights is very important to protect the safety and security of the IDPs.

    NCCP member churches – such as the IFI, ECP, LCP, UCCP, and UMC – are already situated in the affected areas. With their prior experiences in relief response, they have the capacity to identify needs, procure supplies, mobilize volunteers, and implement relief distribution to the disaster affected population. Because of their strong presence in the affected areas and track record in emergency response, NCCP member churches will be the direct implementers of the response. NCCP members and CA partners MuCAARD, ECOWEB and PHILSSA network members, IMCC ICES-DEV and Xavier University are Mindanao-based organizations. MuCAARD has extensive emergency response capacities and experience both in natural and man-made disasters delivering food, NFIs and WASH to 17,100 IDPs in Lanao del Sur and Norte during the All Out War in 2000-2001; food, NFI, WASH facilities and mobile clinics for more than 16,000 IDPs during the 2008 MILF conflict in Lanao del Sur; food, NFI and cash transfers in January 2011 Tail End of the Cold Front in Lanao del Norte; and, NFI and livelihood support in September 2013’s Zamboanga siege. Since Day 1 of the conflict, MuCAARD has assisted the evacuation of some of its partner communities from Marawi. ECOWEB, has earned the 'Gawad Kalasag' (KAlamidad at Sakuna LAbanan SAriling Galing ang Kaligtasan) Award for years 2013 and 2014 as best CSO for region 10 and among the best CSO awardee at the national level. This award is a recognition of ECOWEB’s contribution to building CBDRRM capacity of communities in partnership with the government. Currently, ECOWEB’s Executive Director also serves as the sectoral representative of the Victims of Disaster and Calamities (VDC) sector, one of the 14 basic sectors recognized by the National Anti-Poverty Commission. ECOWEB has implemented several emergency responses that include 2010 Kolambogan conflict, 2011 TY Sendong, and 2013 STY Haiyan in food, NFI, WASH and DRR. IMCC ICES-DEV has had prior experience in humanitarian response, especially during the TY Sendong (TY Washi) in 2011, where they were among the first responders and facilitated the distribution of food and non-food items, as well as

    Evacuation centers and homes are congested and in some areas, there is no electricity. Women and children do have a private space for bathing and changing clothes. The Maranaos are very protective of their women. Disrespect for women by a member of another clan can already trigger a clan feud. A more comprehensive assessment is under way and is expected to generate more detailed data in the following days. )((

    constructed bio-sand filters for evacuation centers in Iligan City. They were also involved in the immediate relief distribution (first three days) for TY Yolanda (TY Haiyan) victims in Tacloban City, and were able to raise funds for Bohol earthquake victims. They also responded to a conflagration incident that happened in Pagadian in 2016. IMCC ICES-DEV also has a roster of volunteer faculty and students that they can mobilize for humanitarian responses. They also have an existing partnership with United Iligan, a non-government organization made up of doctors and lawyers, as well as Xavier University Social Development Office (XU), and Mindanao State University – Iligan Institute of Technology (MSU-IIT). Xavier University Social Development Office (XU) has extensive experience in responding to disasters (TYs Washi, Bopha, and Haiyan, Bohol Earthquake, and Zamboanga siege). Their usual responses range from provision of food packs and setting up of community kitchens, medical missions and WASH through their School of Medicine, and psychosocial support. They also have strong links with the Archdioceses in Mindanao, as well as a roster of staff and volunteers who can be readily mobilized for emergency response. For this response, MuCAARD and ECOWEB will focus on home-based IDPs while ICES-Dev will focus on non-accredited evacuation centers in Iligan City. •! Food security – Through local generation of

    resources, NCCP member churches - the UCCP, UMC, and LCP - were able to provide food relief to the Marawi IDPs in small evacuation centers - which are not government enlisted - in Iligan City and Baloi. Meanwhile, ECP is already coordinating with the other member churches for their support to existing humanitarian initiatives, through the provision of sacks of rice. EcoWEB has initially provided rice to cluster of home-based IDP’s in Baloi and some communities in Iligan City. These families have nothing to eat before fasting as they have bring nothing when they evacuated. The families hosting them were also poor that only the children can be accommodated in their homes.

    IMCC has already distributed 5,000 food packs and sleeping materials (linoleum and malong) in evacuation center in Saguiaran and Balo-I and food packs to 80 families in Mahad Al-Nur Al-Islamiya.

    •! NFI – NCCP has an existing procurement system for the NFIs from their prior emergency response experiences. On the ground, through its member churches, contacts to local suppliers have already been established.

    •! Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene – UMC and LCP were able to distribute hygiene kits and clean clothing items to families in small evacuation centers in Iligan City. IMCC personnel have experience in installation of Bio-sand filters around ARMM communities.

    •! Shelter – Existing local organizations and other ecumenical partners may take the lead in the implementation of shelter kits distribution and monitoring, since they have already established their presence and connection with the communities.

    •! Cash grant – EcoWEB and its partner decided to concentrate on the unattended home-based IDP’s scattered in the various communities in the municipalities of Lanao del Sur, Lanao del Norte and Iligan City. As of May 28th, EcoWEB concentrated on documenting and identifying the unattended communities that are unlikely reached by government and non-government agencies. EcoWEB capitalizes on the network it has with groups based or have contacts in Lanao del Sur. It has started to organize Self Help Groups (SHGs) composed of IDPs and their hosts. Using the survivor led response, some of the plans of SHGs received cash grants from ECOWEB which came from another CA supported project. ECOWEB has already gotten the commitment of CORD Aid and Muslim Hands to implement SLR among IDPs.

    •! Security and protection – Kalinaw Mindanao, a peace coalition of Christian churches, Moro groups and other CSOs, has been carrying out interfaith responses to Mindanao crises, including massive displacements, in the past. Kalinaw Mindanao is currently organizing a humanitarian mission which aims to document and collate the human rights situation in Marawi and other parts of Mindanao; and express

    interfaith solidarity and unity with IDPs. NCCP is one of the convenors of the interfaith group.

    Christian Aid has a current partnership with the Initiatives for Dialogue and Empowerment through Alternative Legal Services (IDEALS) in another project. Said project includes dissemination of information on the benefits and entitlements of disaster affected individuals. IDEALS has already produced information materials for students affected by the Marawi conflict. Other information materials will follow. NCCP and Christian Aid have its own Child Protection Policies that the organizations adhere to. Both also advocate for gender mainstreaming through the e.g. provision of women-friendly spaces, organizing of women’s groups, awareness raising on women’s rights, and etc.

    Proposed response Does the proposed response honour ACT’s commitment to Child Safeguarding?

    Yes No

    The proposed response aims to contribute in the overall efforts to improve the living conditions of the internally displaced persons (IDPs) from Marawi City and other nearby areas affected by the ongoing military operations. The response will target IDPs living in smaller evacuation centres and with host families with the provision of relevant assistance that complements the existing distribution from the government and other actors. The NCCP and CA will work as a consortium and will ensure that local partners coordinate and /or collaborate on the ground to identify gaps and avoid duplications. The proposed response has two principle outcomes:

    1.! Reduced suffering of the conflict affected people and the host families through the provision of immediate relief assistance

    Food assistance Contribute to alleviating hunger through the provision of culturally-sensitive (halal) food baskets to 4,500 affected HHs. The food baskets cover the basic, supplementary food needs for at least two weeks, and are compliant with the Sphere humanitarian standards. Each food basket consists of rice, sardines/corned beef, legumes, sugar, dried fish, salt, cooking oil, and biscuits. Fruits which are traditionally taken during Ramadan for breaking the fast or Iftar will also be considered. Water, Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH) To reduce health risks associated with the lack of access to basic hygiene items through the provision of hygiene kits to 3,000 HHs. These hygiene kits will contain a pack of tissue, toothbrushes, a tube of toothpaste, shampoo, bath soap, laundry soap, under wears, and a pack of sanitary napkins. 500 IDPs will

    also have access to bio-sand filters for their water. Two evacuation centres will have access to simple washing facilities and bathing/changing rooms for women and children. Non-food items (NFIs) To improve the living condition of IDPs through the provision of NFI kits consisting of sleeping materials to 3,000 HHs. Each NFI kit will contain a blanket, malong (a clothing used in variety of ways, common in Filipino Muslim communities), family-size sleeping mat, mosquito net and pillow. Cooking sets will also be provided to IDPs and communal kitchens will be set up in two evacuation centres. Unconditional cash grants ECOWEB will provide cash grants to Self-Help Groups (SHGs) for IDPs living with host families. The SHGs will design, implement and monitor the use of the CGs. Initially, 250 HHs will have access to the cash grants. Learnings from ECOWEB’s cash transfer program and further assessments shall be conducted to determine whether cash transfer programming is more appropriate or to distribute in kind. Road conditions in some towns are not passable for large delivery trucks, making cash transfer programming in areas where markets are open and transport of goods through smaller vehicles more feasible. Security and protection measures will be developed based on the final modality of the emergency response. This will also enhance security conditions in the communities. All these activities are expected to complement the emergency response commitments of the national government (food, CCT for shelter) towards early recovery. The proposed response aims to contribute in the overall efforts to improve the living conditions of the internally displaced persons (IDPs) from Marawi City and other nearby areas affected by the ongoing military operations (those staying in government-designated evacuation centres, other facilities/holding areas and home based IDPs), through the provision of relevant assistance. The response will complement or augment the existing government and other actors’ relief distribution.

    2.! Improved the resilience and economic well-being of the disaster affected and host communities by restoring livelihoods

    Livelihoods Majority of the IDPs belong to communities wherein agriculture and vending are the primary sources of income; and where skills developed among the community members are agriculture-based. Agricultural and livelihood intervention will start once the situation of the IDPs improved and the crisis has been stabilized. As a post-crisis intervention for the early recovery of the affected population, agricultural assistance, through seeds dispersal and provision of farm tools, will be given to 350 HHs. Livelihood support will also be given to 200 HHs. This will be in the form of cash support to small-scale commercial/trading businesses. This intervention will be monitored by existing local organizations and ecumenical partners in the target area. Further information and details on the agricultural and livelihood context of the area will be acquired to ensure the delivery of relevant intervention. Shelter Provision of materials for repairing and/or rebuilding damaged homes will be provided to 300 HHs whose homes were severely damaged/destroyed by the armed conflict. This support will be given once the situation has stabilized and the target population are able to return to their homes. In this post-crisis intervention, priority will be given to poor families whose houses were totally destroyed. Shelter materials will include galvanized iron sheets, nails, ridge rolls, timber and plywood. Materials will be provided to HHs who will undertake repair or construction of their own houses. Cross-cutting issues The response will be designed in such a way to prevent affected populations to resort to negative coping mechanisms (e.g., loan sharks; lesser food consumption especially for women and children; trafficking) that

    will increase dependence on government /local power holders and hinder recovery. In all areas of operations, community participation will be maximized for beneficiary selection and determination of appropriate needs. Visibility and information sharing will be important components of the response. Multi-channel complaints response mechanisms will be established and post-distribution monitoring & evaluation will be conducted to assess the response and to gather learnings. Community Based Psychosocial Support (CBPS) and quality and accountability (Q&A) will be mainstreamed throughout the response in order to strengthen the target communities’ resilience, coping mechanisms and psychosocial wellbeing through community-based psychosocial support. *The beneficiaries will be involved in the identification of priority needs, the system of distribution, identification of the specific forms of agriculture and livelihood assistance, planning the repair of houses through series of meetings and consultation. Coordination For this response, NCCP and CA are coordinating at the national, regional, provincial, and municipal level, and will strengthen coordination on the ground. This is to ensure that NCCP and CA partners are sharing information, exploring complementation of response, and not duplicating efforts. NCCP as a registered and accredited agency by the Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) will take the lead in coordinating with its member churches present in the area, and will link with other networks at the national and local level, as necessary while Christian Aid and its local partners are coordinating with the Philippine INGO Network (PINGON), UNOCHA, and the Humanitarian Country Team (HCT). CA also coordinates with the START Network where in the Philippines it leads the Transforming Surge Capacity Project. CA is also one of the members of the steering group for the Financial Enablers Project. To ensure that the affected population is at the centre of the response and that their voices are amplified and heard, NCCP and CA will advocate for the respect of human and IDPs’ rights in the on-going conflict and the declaration of martial law in the island of Mindanao. This advocacy will be carried out as we engage with our members, partners, and other networks. To strengthen the consortium, for this response NCCP and CA will collaborate on a response in 1-2 non-accredited ECs. Joint actions will be undertaken where it will enhance efficiency, effectiveness, economy, and equity. Note that, based on the experience of different consortiums in previous emergencies, “enforced” joint action can sometimes hinder rather than facilitate effectiveness and economy. For instance, joint procurement will not be conducted where centralization hinders recovery of local markets and delays delivery to remote communities. Further, standardized packages prevent provision of differentiated needs to diverse communities. The forum members will ensure co-branding based on the ACT visibility and co-branding policy.
