Project Name: Empowering Local and National Humanitarian Actors (ELNHA) Project

Project Introduction:
The current humanitarian system has saved countless lives over the past 50 years, but is overstretched and underfunded – unable to meet rising needs of crisis affected countries and providing assistance to communities that is often insufficient, inappropriate and late. There is growing support for a shift of power and resources to local and national humanitarian actors. Local and national actors are the first responders when crises hits, know the local context. Oxfam is promoting local actors with the right resources and support which will help communities become better resistant to crises and the effects of climate change.

The ELNHA program runs on the principle of putting Local and National Humanitarian Actors in the driver’s seat to define their agenda and strategies, and influence international humanitarian actors for their support.

The project is covering the most vulnerable 9 districts of the country and these are Barguna, Dhaka, Gaibandha, Kishorganj, Kurigram, Patuakhali, Satkhira, Sirajgonj and Sunamganj. These districts are selected focusing on different hazards, these are:

• The urban district (Dhaka) exposed to regular urban water logging, fire and earthquakes
• The coastal districts (Barguna, Patuakhali and Satkhira) exposed to cyclone, tidal surge, water logging
• The remaining districts (Sirajgonj, Gaibandha, Kurigram, Kishoregonj and Sunamgonj) are highly exposed to multiple hazards including regular monsoon flood, flash flood and river erosion.

The project is being implemented in these districts to empower local and national actors and support their efforts in dealing with crises situations. Dhaka Ahsania Mission is implementing the project in urban areas of Dhaka North City Corporation targeting 3 wards (nos. 10, 11 & 12) with the financial support of Oxfam in Bangladesh. The project has scope to work with local and national humanitarian actions i.e., government, NGOs, institutions, etc. for strengthening their capacity as well as promoting localization of resources.

Project Introduction:

The hills, a part of the Arakan Range, was covered by thick Garjon and other native tree species like Amloki, Bohera, Chapalish, Dharmara, Dewe, as well as medicinal plants like Olot Kombal and Tokma. Over time; the hills got totally denuded due to severe human intervention.  Many of the above tree species regenerate profusely but are extracted by the local poor people who sell those as fuel wood in the local market to meet their both ends and survive at the margin of life. Arannyak Foundation has initiated a project entitled: “Restoration and Conservation of Biodiversity in the Denuded Hills of Banskhali, Chittagong” focused primarily on stopping resource extraction from the hills and allowing natural regeneration through people’s participation.

The Rohingya crisis started in Myanmar’s Rakhine state since 25 August 2017 and had made it the world’s fastest growing refugee crisis. The speed and scale of the influx of Forcefully Displaced Myanmar Nationals (FDMN) in Cox’s Bazar has resulted in a critical humanitarian crisis including the host communities in Cox’s Bazar.

Project Name:  Promoting Climate Resilient Education, Faridpur

Project Introduction:
This pilot project intends to inspire students, teachers and school management committees to promote a culture of safety in schools and to increase the resilience of schools to climate shocks. It will help create and maintain a safe school environment conducive to learning for students and staff including three focus areas as follows: school profiling; crisis preparedness through awareness building and learning; and emergency action plans. The proposed pilot project will provide classroom-based learning activities to 1,000 students in two targeted schools. An inclusive risk assessment process will be one of the most important initial steps in the pilot project. It will work towards resilient communities with the active involvement of children. The process will be conducted in two targeted schools and will analyze climatic shocks, trends, risks, resources, capacities and existing practices in the schools and local community. Based on the participatory analysis, a coping strategy will be developed which the schools and community will adopt through practice for future adaptation measures. The project approach has been developed recognizing that the sustainability of project interventions is best achieved by ensuring local ownership, in this case ensuring that children, schools and local communities are driving climate change adaptation and mitigation plans.

Project Name: Building Resilient Urban Communities (BRUC)
Promoting Urban Climate Change Resilience in Selected Asian Cities: Development of Pilot Activities and Project Development Support” (BRUC) Project.

Project Introduction: The Project attempts to contribute to a climate resilient urban future through community led resilience building initiatives that are integrated in institutional planning systems and processes. This is done by taking an urban systems approach that supports climate change integration into city planning, project development and implementation, knowledge sharing and capacity building. In particular, it aims to help ensure that poor urban dwellers in the cities, especially vulnerable groups, are able to realize their rights and improve their well-being despite the impact of different shocks and stressors including climate change. The community and concerned stakeholders have examined the community’s key hazards, vulnerabilities, and capacities in addressing their risks; and facilitate a resilience planning process where the local stakeholders identify a pilot community-led project for implementation through “The Community Assessment and Resilience Planning (CARP) workshop”. A feasibility study has been facilitating on “Climate Resilient Park and Training Academy at ward no. 09, Faridpur Municipality” by external consulting firm named “ENVIROSHED”. The feasibility study analyzed the technical, environmental, social, financial and economic and sustainability of the proposed community led project (CLP).
