PROJECT BRIEF |
This project promotes inclusive, gender-responsive and whole-of-society approaches to Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR) and Climate Change Adaptation (CCA), contributing to the Sendai Framework, the Paris Agreement and the SDGs. It is a regional initiative implemented jointly with Indonesia and the Philippines; in Bangladesh it works across 18 wards of Rayenda and Southkhali Unions in Sharankhola Upazila, Bagerhat District. The approach centers on building the leadership and active participation of women and persons with disabilities in DRR and CCA planning, implementation and advocacy. Through capacity building, evidence-based research, ecosystem restoration and livelihood diversification, the project reduces disaster and climate risks while strengthening sustainable, climate-resilient livelihoods. It also supports policy review and advocacy to mainstream gender and disability perspectives into DRR/CCA frameworks, and facilitates regional learning exchanges among government, NGOs, academia and community-based organisations. The project directly benefits 2,760 people, including 1,520 women and 375 persons with disabilities — including Ward officials, Disaster Management Committee members and household members from the local community. Expected changes: communities and decision-makers identify and act on climate and disaster risks in a coordinated, inclusive way; women and persons with disabilities gain economic resilience through protected ecosystems, nature-based solutions and diversified climate-sensitive livelihoods; and organisations of women and persons with disabilities coordinate more effectively with state actors, NGOs and academia for inclusive DRR and CCA. |

Objectives/Outcomes/Long-term Results |
Overall Impact: Contribute to the implementation of the Sendai Framework (SFDRR), the Paris Agreement and the SDGs through an inclusive, whole-of-society approach to disaster and climate risk reduction, promoting leadership of women and persons with disabilities in DRR/CCA at local, national and regional levels. Outcome 1: Households, communities and decision-makers identify climate and disaster risks, factor them into coordinated action, and actively involve at-risk groups such as women and persons with disabilities. Outcome 2: Protected ecosystems and natural resources, diversified and climate-sensitive livelihoods, and improved access to clean water contribute to the economic resilience of women and persons with disabilities. Outcome 3: Organisations of women and persons with disabilities, state actors, NGOs, academia and other stakeholders learn from each other and coordinate the planning and implementation of inclusive DRR and CCA. |

| PROJECT BRIEF (Narrative – 500 words max including project aim/goal, approach, beneficiaries, intended changes etc.) |
The ever-expanding and immense humanitarian needs require the humanitarian system to search for adequate solutions. Typically, local actors, as members of civil society, are the first to respond following a shock. The efficacy and efficiency of humanitarian efforts can be enhanced by leveraging local knowledge, trust, and other complementary capabilities, thereby increasingly empowering local actors. Despite the essential work provided by local and national humanitarian organizations, they often function as mere implementers of strategic and operational decisions made by international humanitarian organizations. Supporting local actors in enhancing their operational preparedness and response capacity, organizational and institutional capabilities, securing sufficient funding, and integrating into pertinent humanitarian coordination mechanisms is paramount. Furthermore, transforming the roles of various actors within the humanitarian system is equally significant.To bolster the capacities of local actors in humanitarian response, preparedness, coordination, and advocacy the Towards Greater Effectiveness and Timeliness in Humanitarian Emergency Response (ToGETHER) project is being implemented in Bangladesh with the support of Malteser International where Centre for Disability in Development (CDD) is one of the Local Humanitarian Partners (LHP). Under this project, the CDD will have the opportunity to develop capacity thus enhancing its institutional and operational capabilities to respond to humanitarian crises effectively. ToGETHER strives to transcend organizational limitations, enabling all local and international partners involved to collaborate in developing solutions to humanitarian challenges. Starting with a review of the localisation workstreams and a mapping of the existing capacity development initiatives, the programme will design and implement country-specific activities to increase the representation of local actors in the national humanitarian system and to shape their advocacy in relevant policy processes at country level as well as global level (like Charter4Change, Grand Bargain etc.). Throughout the program, CDD will have the opportunity to develop its humanitarian response capacity based on self-defined needs and priorities and the larger humanitarian context in the country. During the course of the programme CDD will have access to funding for implementing innovative humanitarian approaches and applying acquired capacities in actual crises situations. The programme will further provide technical support and advisory services to CDD and facilitate the creation of platforms for knowledge exchange, learning and evidence-based good practice. |
| Objectives/Outcomes/Long-term Results | Objective The main objective of the Programme is that Local Humanitmian Parhrers (LHP) take responsibilities and actions in the humanitarian system of the country for an effective and timely, accountable, and principled humanitarian action. Output 01. LHP assumes a leading role in strategic decision making and the efficient and accountable implementation of the programme,02. Institutional and operational Emergency Preparedness, Response and Coordination Capacities of LHP are strengthened, and03. Knowledge exchange, learning and advocacy enhance quality humanitarian aid programming of LHPs and their role in the humanitarian system |
| Major Activities | · Develop and implement capacity strengthening plan.· Review and develop new policies, procedures, guidelines, for effective and inclusive humanitarian action.· Mentoring, training and workshop· Exchange knowledge and learning through workshops, conferences and South-South-Exchange.· Establish MEAL system including a Complaint Response Mechanism (CRM)· Support other LHPs in the country on inclusion of persons with disabilities in humanitarian action.· Capacity strengthening of stakeholders on the understanding of localization and disability inclusive humanitarian action.· Support disaster affected community through Humanitarian Operation and Innovation Facility (HOIFA) fund.· Introduce People-first Impact Method (P-FIM) as a tool for effective community engagement.· Advocacy for localization. |

PROJECT TITLE |
Sustainable Education Support for Deaf Children in Bangladesh |
|
Abbreviation |
SES-DCB |
|
PROJECT BRIEF |
The project aims towards creating a deaf-friendly model for pre-primary education at six Government schools by system strengthening and capacity building of stakeholders including parents. It also envisages enabling parents/family members of deaf children in primary schools for providing communication and literacy support at their homes. This would help in establishing sustainable support mechanisms for deaf children at home as well as in schools. The idea is to influence the national Government to adapt the model and integrate it within their pre-primary education system by strengthening networking and collaboration with government departments and non-government organisations. |
