Consolidated Appeals Process (CAP)

The CAP is much more than an appeal for money. It is an inclusive and coordinated programme cycle of:

Strategic planning leading to a Common Humanitarian Action Plan (CHAP); Resource mobilisation (leading to a Consolidated Appeal or a Flash Appeal); Coordinated programme implementation; Joint monitoring and evaluation; Revision, if necessary; and Reporting on results.

The CHAP is a strategic plan for humanitarian response in a given country or region and includes the following elements:

A common analysis of the context in which humanitarian action takes place; An assessment of needs; Best, worst, and most likely scenarios; Stakeholder analysis, i.e. who does what and where; A clear statement of longer-term objectives and goals; Prioritised response plans; and A framework for monitoring the strategy and revising it if necessary.

The CHAP is the foundation for developing a Consolidated Appeal or, when crises break or natural disasters strike, a Flash Appeal. Under the leadership of the Humanitarian Coordinator, the CHAP is developed at the field level by the Inter-Agency Standing Committee (IASC) Country Team. This team mirrors the IASC structure at headquarters and includes UN agencies and standing invitees, i.e. the International Organization for Migration (IOM), the Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement, and NGOs that belong to ICVA, Interaction, or SCHR. Non-IASC members, such as national NGOs, can be included, and other key stakeholders in humanitarian action, in particular host governments and donors, should be consulted.

The Humanitarian Coordinator is responsible for the annual preparation of the consolidated appeal document. The document is launched globally each November to enhance advocacy and resource mobilisation. An update, known as the Mid-Year Review, is to be presented to donors in July 2007.

Donors provide resources to appealing agencies directly in response to project proposals. The Financial Tracking Service (FTS), managed by the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA), is a database of donor contributions and can be found on www.reliefweb.int/fts

In sum, the CAP works to provide people in need the best available protection and assistance, on time.

Appealing Agency ACTION CONTRE LA FAIM (ACF)Project Title Cash for Work in the provinces of Kayanza and NgoziProject Code BDI-07/A02Sector Agriculture Objective Provide support to household revenue for the most vulnerable

householdsBeneficiaries Total: 6,000 households

Other vulnerable groups: food insecure households with few manpower, few access to land, to cattle, to cash crops (as coffee or tea), with family member sick (including child coming from Therapeutic Feeding Centre (TFC) or Supplementary Feeding Centre (SFC) recently) or disabled.

Project Duration February - November 2007Funds Requested $280,000

SummaryIn the provinces of Ngozi and Kayanza, the majority of the population lives in rural areas and its revenues come practically exclusively from agriculture. Availability of products on the market varies in accordance with the agricultural season and the production level of the last harvest. The prices for the basic staple foodstuffs constantly rise since the needs for financial liquidity of the household is such that (without any other sources of revenue besides agriculture) they push for a rapid monetarisation of their production, which leads to inflation. Consequently, access to food is weak due to lack of sufficient revenues outside the sector of agriculture.

ActivitiesAnti-erosion measures, rehabilitation of marshland and of infrastructure, catchments of rainwater.

IndicatorsThe common activities which serve the entire community (identified based on needs) are realised and the amounts distributed to households, which participate in works, are used for the purchase of foodstuff and for the reimbursement of debts. Revenue sources are diversified for the most vulnerable households targeted by the project.

Objective To improve the access to higher quality and/or more diverse seed varieties for vulnerable households in rural Burundi

Targeted Beneficiaries 100,000 families with a focus on returnees, displaced, and other highly vulnerable households

Implementing Partners Bureaux du Développement, Non-Governmental Organisations (NGOs), Ministry of Agriculture, local administration

Project Duration Agricultural Seasons 2007-B and 2008-AFunds Requested $2,250,000

SummaryThis program aims at improving Burundian communities’ food and livelihood security through improved access to seeds and other essential household items (tools, etc.) through the implementation of market-based seed fairs in which local vendors of seeds and other items are invited, to make their wares available to identified vulnerable families using a voucher payment system in lieu of cash.

Project objectivesSeed and livelihood fairs will be organised to improve access for 100,000 households to high quality and more diverse seeds, as well as farming tools and other household needs at the beginning of agricultural seasons 2007B and 2008A. These fairs place Burundian subsistence farming households at the centre of the process through offering them choices to meet their seed and household needs. Seed vouchers and fairs also strengthen local seed systems, stimulate local agricultural markets, and support social community development.

This project proposes to respond to the need to restore the productive capacities of the most affected households in Burundi. The interventions outlined in this proposal will complement the on-going FAO, World Food Programme (WFP), CRS and other NGOs activities throughout the country. The cumulative results of the combined efforts of all actors in the agricultural sector will ease the restoration of impoverished populations’ agricultural production capacities.

access (small livestock and vegetable seeds)Project Code BDI-07/A06Sector AgricultureObjectives Improve the diet of families in terms of quantity and quality and

expand household income by supporting small livestock productionBeneficiaries 18,000 households with limited land access living in suburban areas

of Kayanza, Ngozi, Gitega and Bujumbura ProvincesImplementing Partners WFP, United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF), NGOs, Ministry of

AgricultureProject Duration January – December 2007Funds Requested $770,000

Summary68% of total households in Burundi are at high risk of food insecurity in Burundi due to high population density and the decline in soil fertility. This situation is aggravated by the lack of livestock following years of conflict, in particularly in provinces of Kayanza, Ngozi, Gitega and Bujumbura Provinces where the average arable family land plot has dwindled to less than 20 acres.

The project aims to support the above populations and those affected by HIV/AIDS through small livestock breeding and market gardening.

Activities This project will provide vegetable seeds; fertilisers, pesticides and basic tools to 15,000

households with limited land access will get vegetable seeds, fertilisers, pesticides and basic tools. In addition 15,000 people will directly benefit from livestock activities;

Training on nutrition, agriculture and livestock breeding practices will be provided during the project. Associations of farmers will be favoured and supported so as to obtain lasting results;

Main indicatorsNumber of households supported, percentage of food needs covered, quantity of inputs distributed, and number of persons trained.

affected populations and to specific chronically vulnerable groupsProject Code BDI-07/A07Sector AgricultureObjective Provide agricultural inputs to the most vulnerable and disaster

affected populations and to specific chronically vulnerable groups during the three forthcoming agricultural seasons

Beneficiaries 340,000 households: returning refugees. Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) during their initial reinstallation and other specific groups (40,000 households for season 2007C, 150,000 for season 2008A and 150,000 for season 2008B)

Implementing Partners FAO, WFP, UNICEF, NGOs, MoA, Comité National de Coordination des Aides (CNCA)


SummaryA high number of households either affected by the conflict, erratic climate or plant diseases are unable to restart or maintain agricultural production activities, leading to food scarcity, exclusion from society and inactivity.

FAO’s estimate of the most vulnerable households can be divided in to five categories:1) 40,000 returning refugees or expelled migrants;2) 20,000 IDPs with access to their land;3) 90,000 chronically vulnerable due to climatic shocks and crop diseases;4) 60,000 structurally vulnerable with limited access to land (among them Batwa community);5) 30,000 with ‘inherited’ vulnerability from the conflict (single headed households, widows,

isolated elderly and chronically ill persons, etc).

Activities Identification of beneficiaries according to criteria established by the Food security technical

group; Purchase of agricultural inputs in local or regional markets; Distribution of inputs for agricultural season 2007C, 2008A and 2008B in close cooperation with

partners.

Appealing Agency FOOD AND AGRICULTURE ORGANIZATION (FAO)Project Title Rehabilitation of areas with high agricultural production potential for

populations recently reinstalledProject Code BDI-07/A08Sector AgricultureObjective Improve agricultural production by rehabilitating agro-hydraulic

infrastructuresBeneficiaries Rural communities: 8,000 householdsImplementing Partners Ministry of Agriculture, Ministry of Environment, WFP and the

private sectorProject Duration January - December 2007Funds Requested $1,265,000

SummaryRepeated climatic shocks (draught) in Bugesera, Buragane and Moso regions have resulted in poor harvests since 2004, particularly for the first agricultural season A. Moreover, a high population density (over 400 inhabitants per square kilometre) in Ngozi, Kayanza and Gitega provinces has gradually resulted in family plots of less than 2,000 square metres. This situation is further complicated by land issues, conflicts and the ongoing return of refugees and IDPs.

Therefore, it is crucial to expand cultivable land where it is still possible, in particular in areas with high agricultural production potential for populations recently resettled or returned and in zones bordering lakes in areas prone to prolonged draught. Planned rehabilitation work will be completed in a short time to ensure a quick impact for returning populations. These populations should be able to restart production in less than three months in order to increase their income.

Activities Rehabilitation of 700 hectares of swamps in the provinces of Cankuzo, Kirundo, Makamba,

Muyinga, Rutana and Ruyigi for 8,000 households; Support to the expansion of irrigation schemes by providing manual water pumps in areas

bordering lakes and rivers (in particular Bugesera, which is often affected by draught).

Beneficiaries 200,000 households: returning refugees and IDPs, unemployed young rural population, demobilised combatants and vulnerable persons

Implementing Partners FAO, WFP, MoA, CNCA, DPAE, NGOs and private and community sectors


SummaryRecent political developments in Burundi will likely initiate an important return of refugees and IDPs to their place of origin. These persons will encounter local rural communities still highly vulnerable in the aftermath of the conflict, climatic shocks and plants diseases. This project aims to improve the overall food production and restoring production capacities, particularly, to ensure a quick reintegration of returning refugees and IDPs through existing and operational community structures and associations.

affected communes through support in and agricultural toolsBeneficiaries Persons living in the communes of Bugabira, Kirundo and Ntega

totalling around 245,065 (63,615 which is 24% of the children under five). The beneficiary populations will be targeted particularly among the persons who are already displaced as a result of food insecurity.

Implementing Partners Ministry of Agriculture and livestock, communal organisationsProject Duration January – December 2007Funds Requested $110,600

SummaryThe province of Kirundo has been marked over the last years by strong climatic disturbances and by long periods of sunshine and a resulting rain level deficit. Agriculture, which is the principal source of both foodstuff for consumption and revenue for the local population, has been strongly affected. The consequences are diminishing harvests and the loss of hope for the renewing of entrants de production, which has caused massive displacement of populations fleeing food shortages.

The programme aims at the improvement of production capacity of the populations in the communes of Bugabira, Kirundo and Ntega in focusing on the lean cultures. The aim will be to facilitate their access to crop seeds, to agricultural tools and to obtain a minimum of training to guarantee good use of the distributed seeds.

Organization (WHO), WFPProject Duration January – December 2007Requested Funds $300,000

SummaryHIV and Malnutrition - The relationship between HIV and malnutrition is well documented. Each impacts on the other, with malnutrition increasing the risk of developing AIDS, and advanced HIV or AIDS increasing the risk of malnutrition. This complicated malnutrition is often accompanied by related disease and mortality. It has been noted in ACF nutrition programmes in countries with a high HIV prevalence, that there are increased numbers of complicated malnutrition and that there is a need for clearer messages on infant feeding (exclusive breast feeding versus HIV transmission). It is noted that infants under 6 months present to TFCs having not breast fed due to fear of transmission and those from 6-12 months are frequently presenting with malnutrition as a result of mothers responsibly following abrupt weaning recommendations from national Prevention of Mother to Child Transmission (PMTCT) programmes.

Through lack of nutritional emphasis in the current PMTCT programmes, infants are at increased risk of HIV infection, childhood malnutrition, morbidity and mortality. ACF would like to address this through better maternal nutrition and education on the dangers of mixed feeding under six months (support of exclusive breast feeding) and appropriate nutrition support to the HIV exposed child abruptly weaned at six months. As children exposed to HIV, even if they are not infected, have decreased development of immunity and higher risk of morbidity, these children also require nutritional follow up and possible support.

Specific Objective Support the households affected by conflict in their efforts to build shelter; improve the hygiene conditions through the construction of latrines; support the peaceful coexistence of returnees and internally displaced persons

Beneficiaries Total: 750 householdsChildren: 3,750

Project Duration Six monthsTotal Project Budget $432,805Funds Requested $349,036

SummarySince the month of August 2006, the rate of returns of Burundian refugees has increased considerably. About 2,000 returnees per week make their way home. Since the beginning of 2006, 26,000 returnees have come home with the assistance of UNHCR.

Over the course of the year 2006, only 16,000 returnees have been able to receive assistance in terms of shelter, whereas others remain in deplorable and disconcerting conditions. In some areas, the IDPs are more numerous than returnees and have benefited from less assistance. This situation risks creating tensions between the two populations in displacement. It is as a result of this that APADE will build 750 houses with latrines for vulnerable returning refugees and IDPs. APADE will first identify the beneficiaries. Except for the manual labour, which will be provided by the beneficiaries in the areas of brick construction, APADE will provide construction material, including doors, windows, corrugated iron sheets, nails, parches hooks and technical expertise in the domains of masonry and carpentry.

associationsProject Duration March – December 2007 Funds Requested $276,458

SummaryThe political and socio-economic crises that prevailed in Burundi have caused a high number of orphans and other vulnerable children, many of whom are now returning to their collines. These orphans have to find foster care by families who are extremely poor and sometimes in such a precarious situation that they cannot provide protection or assistance. Unaccompanied children and orphans (including child-headed households) who return from exile or are forcefully expelled from Tanzania thus require a particular short-term emergency assistance.

The project aims at the protection and assistance of these highly vulnerable groups of children and at responding rapidly to their short-term needs. The number of beneficiaries will be 5,000 in the border area with Tanzania, where most returnees remain. They will receive short-term emergency assistance upon integration into foster families which is comprised of the following: Identification; reception and counselling; Food aid; NFIs; Seeds and tools (and small livestock where appropriate), and; Advocacy support (e.g. protection or schooling).

The guiding evaluation principles are: the number of beneficiaries; the quantity of distributed assistance; and the number of training sessions held.

Implementing Partner OCHA, UNHCR, UNICEF, UNDP, United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organisation (UNESCO)


SummaryOne of the consequences of the progress made in the Burundi peace process is the will, on the part of the Burundi refugees and IDPs to return or to resettle in their former home villages. Some of the refugees have started returning, and the internally displaced have at least resumed contacts with their former neighbourhood and communities. Whereas this trend to return may be accelerated by the recent signing of the cease-fire between the GoB and the Forces Nationales pour la Libération (FNL), the resettlement environment is unfortunately not yet free from threats on the life of these returning populations. The threats are linked to, among others, long standing land disputes and the massive presence of weapons in the hands of civilians. In this respect, OHCHR will implement this project of sensitisation and advocacy, with a view to preventing the attempts to the life of these conflict affected population, especially in the areas of massive return and resettlement.

Activities Production of sensitisation material and advocacy tools; Regional human rights sensitisation sessions; Undertake human rights culture-grounded activities for resettled communities; Organise solidarity camps in the resettlement communities; Awareness raising campaign on the respect for the right to life.

SummaryThe return of war affected Burundians to their communities in a sensitive environment, whereby the civilian population and the most vulnerable fear the reoccurrence of violence is an issue of concern. In many areas in Burundi, ‘resident’ populations, returnees, former internally displaced, demobilised, former prisoners live together peacefully. It is likely that other prisoners, members or sympathisers of the FNL will soon be released. Mandated actors in Burundi are busy assisting the war-affected with resettlement, however, it remains crucial that the context of resettlement is closely monitored before, during and after the return of the war-affected populations to ensure their protection. OHCHR will continue to monitor the human rights situation in the areas of potential and actual return, in order to ensure that the rights of the most vulnerable populations are protected.

Activities Field monitoring visits; Regular updating of the database on the human rights violations and an analysis of trends; Drafting and publication of ad hoc and periodic reports on the human rights situation.

Expected Outcome Violence and human rights violations are prevented or curbed in resettlement areas, especially for the most vulnerable war affected, including returnees, former internal displaced persons, combatants, and prisoners, as well as ‘residents’.

SummaryProtecting the rights of the most vulnerable remains a sensitive issue, which calls for concerted action and attention. In Burundi, this concern is rendered urgent by the fact that the institutions in charge of human rights protection do not have sufficient capacity in this area. OHCHR has set up local networks for the protection of human rights, namely the network of National Human Rights Observers, the network of Women Leaders of Grassroots Communities committed to combating violence and abuse against women, and the Local Human Rights Association Forum. Another network composed of human rights journalists is about to be established, its members are currently being trained on human rights matters. During 2007, OHCHR will strengthen the operational capacities of these community level networks, so as to better equip them to prevent human rights violations of the most vulnerable in their communities, especially the war affected populations.

Activities Provide training and logistic equipment to the local human rights networks and launch the journalists’ network. Work closely with the human rights networks to ensure coordination.

Expected OutcomeLocal human rights networks are better equipped to carryout an independent human rights protection work. The human rights of the most vulnerable are better protected at community level.
