Contexte |
Mozambique is extremely prone to recurring hydrometeorological hazards and its population is at the same time highly vulnerable due to gaps in basic and social services, underlying poverty, and deprivations. The frequency of severe floods, droughts and tropical storms including cyclones has been increasing in Mozambique. The Global Climate Risk Index 2021 assesses impacts of extreme weather events (fatalities and economic losses) and ranks Mozambique as the 5th most affected country for the period of 2000-2019. |
Objectifs | Mortality and morbidity are reduced through scaling up WASH emergency preparedness and response during natural disasters and/or in areas prone to water-borne diseases. |
Groupes cibles |
Direct: 1,600 men, women through capacity building initiatives targeting policy makers, directors, managers within the relevant state institutions and humanitarian and development partners Indirect: 20,000 men, women and children through preparedness actions including prepositioning of water treatment supplies and emergency response |
Effets à moyen terme | The main objective of the contribution is to strengthen preparedness and response in natural disaster and/or water-related diseases prone areas of Mozambique through WASH in Emergency bottleneck analysis and capacity building, as well as procurement and prepositioning of WASH supplies. |
