Please briefly describe here:

  • the overall project

  • information on how CERF funding will be used to support life-saving/core humanitarian activities

  • the profile of project beneficiaries

  • how gender equality is mainstreamed in project design and implementation (ensuring that the needs of women, girls, boys, and men are met equally)

  • relevant assessments and assessment data.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In the wake of the presidential elections’ crisis in December 2010, the humanitarian situation has been degrading in Côte d’Ivoire. Post-election clashes led to forced displacement and an estimate 150 000 Internal Displaced Persons (IDPs) are currently living in the western region of the country in IDP sites or in host communities. Since May 2011, some families have returned to their village of origin where they live in very precarious conditions, often without any shelter and with no access to basic services. As schools and other public social services are not yet running in rural host and return communities, children are let by themselves/ unoccupied.

Women and children witnessed killing or torture of their relatives and were exposed to high level of violence, forced recruitment into armed groups/forces and at civilian checkpoints, sexual violence and exploitation, as well as involvement in political rallies and exposure to propaganda on radio and television inciting violence. The ongoing displacement situation and insecurity in area of return results in serious psychological and social consequences for women and children but also for their families and communities. During focus group discussions, women and children often mentioned that they cannot sleep at night which demonstrates their psychological distress.



Access to information and psychosocial assistance for women, youth and children is critical along with enhanced protective community mechanism and access to adequate services for survivors of violence, and women and children most vulnerable such as women/child head of household, children and women with disabilities or children and women living with HIV or widows.
Access for affected women and children to psychosocial assistance is critical and needs to be strengthened in all affected areas, in particular areas of return, through a community based approach. The third level of psychosocial support (psychological care) needs to be strengthened. The coverage outside the IDP camps would need to be expanded and scale up to ensure that host communities and people returning to their village also receive psychosocial support. Recreational activities for children outside IDP camps are very limited. Specific activities and approach need also to be developed to ensure that Youth and adolescent access to PSS adequately. Critical needs includes CFS, recreational activities, counselling units, psychological services and assistance to victims/most vulnerable children and women, strengthening of caregivers capacities to care for their children presenting trauma, and of child protection mechanisms at the community level.
Responding to the immediate protection needs of children and women who are affected by the crisis and highly exposed to violence and abuse contributes directly to minimize the loss of life, as well as both short- and long-term physical and psychological damage. This CERF project has been designed with these criteria expressly in mind.

11. Implementation Plan: Please include information on the mechanisms for implementation, grants to cooperating partners, the duration for implementing CERF-funded activities, monitoring and reporting provisions.

CERF funded activities will be implemented for a period of six months, in partnership with NGOs such as Save the Children, Care, Caritas, Asapsu. Activities will be implemented in coordination with the Regional Decentralized Department of Ministry of Social Welfare and CP Sub Cluster, and based on sector response plan.

Throughout the project duration, both qualitative and quantitative data collection methods will be used. Regular field visits will also be conducted to beneficiaries and partners to ensure that activities respond to the objectives and indicators of the project. An end of project report will be prepared showing how expected targets have been met, shortfalls as well as recommendations.

Annex I – Budget Guidance

Each CERF project proposal must include a budget which details the costs to be funded by CERF and which strictly adheres to the CERF budget template and CERF budget guidelines (see below).

The budget should reflect activities described in the project narrative, and include sufficient detail to provide a transparent overview of how CERF funds will be spent. Budget lines should be itemized wherever possible, including quantity and unit prices of items to be procured whenever possible.

Budgets should not include government staff salaries, recurrent costs for regular agency operations (i.e., maintenance costs), prevention activities, or stockpiling. Capacity building and training should not be included, unless related to direct implementation of emergency response, and then only at minimal levels. Staff and travel costs should be kept to a minimum.



If more than one agency will implement a project, separate budgets must be completed for each agency. There will be a separate disbursement to each agency, as CERF funds may not be passed from one agency to another.

1 The CERF Life-Saving Criteria, which specify sectoral activities that the CERF can fund, are available at http://cerf.un.org.

2 SMART indicators are: specific, to avoid differing interpretations; measurable, to allow monitoring and evaluation; appropriate to the problem statement; realistic and able to achieve; time-bound indicating a specific period of time during which the results will be achieved. Indicators must be designed to enable you to identify the different impacts (intended and unintended) your project has on women, girls, boys, and men.
