    1. Highlight the concrete actions taken between 1 January – 31 December 2017 to implement the commitments which contribute to achieving this transformation. Be as specific as possible and include any relevant data/figures.

    In 2017 Cordaid continued working in eight conflict affected countries in/on fragility contributing to reduced vulnerability and strengthened capacity of communities and systems and thereby contributing to stability. Cordaid contributed through he following programs:  health, health systems strengthening and sexual and reproductive health and rights, community resilience, security and justice and humanitarian aid. 

    During 2017 Cordaid invested in strengthening links and synergies between humanitarian aid and development programming that will further enhance contributions to stability. In Afghanistan and South Sudan plans have been developed for linking humanitarian and development have been made and are being implemented. In the Central African Republic (CAR) an LRRD (linking relief, rehabilitation and development) strategy for education was developed. 

    LRRD is included as a major theme in the Cordaid strategic planning 2018-2021.

    2. A. How are you measuring progress toward achieving your commitments? Only the categories selected by the organisation will be seen below.
    • Through existing, internal systems or frameworks for monitoring, reporting and/or evaluation.
    • Through multi-stakeholder processes or initiatives (e.g. IASC, Grand Bargain, Charter for Change, etc).
    B. How are you assessing whether progress on commitments is leading toward change in the direction of the transformation?

    Progress in LRRD is monitored by management, the fact that specific sessions on LRRD were included in the strategic planning at Cordaid overall and at country office level shows Cordaid is moving in that direction.

    3. A. Please select no more than 3 key challenges faced in implementing the commitments related to this transformation. Only the categories selected by the organisation will be seen below.
    • Funding amounts
    • Funding modalities (earmarking, priorities, yearly agreements, risk aversion measures)
    • Joined-up humanitarian-development analysis, planning, funding and/or response
    B. How are these challenges impacting achievement of this transformation?

    Project based funding and silos between humanitarian aid and development donors hamper contributions to stability and longer term engagement. Longer term predictable financing and/or more synergy between humanitarian and development donors (respecting humanitarian principles) would greatly help. 

     

    4. Highlight actions planned for 2018 to advance implementation of your commitments in order to achieve this transformation.

    Cordaid is further focusing work on fragile countries and will continue to invest in developing synergies between humanitarian aid and development programming while respecting humanitarian principles. 

    5. What steps or actions are needed to make collective progress to achieve this transformation?

    More advocacy with donors (non-governmental organization (NGO) to donor) but also donor to donor to challenge donors to change the silosystem to be more supportive ot LRRD. 

    6. List any good practice or examples of innovation undertaken individually or in cooperation with others to advance this transformation.

    In discussions with the DRA (Dutch Relief Alliance, an alliance in humanitarian aid which Cordaid is part of), the Dutch Government decided in 2017 to change the year based project funding into a more predictable longer term funding for the DRA for protracted crisis. This is a good example for other donors.

    1. Highlight the concrete actions taken between 1 January – 31 December 2017 to implement the commitments which contribute to achieving this transformation. Be as specific as possible and include any relevant data/figures.

    The Jeune S3 program is ongoing and contributes to protection and empowerment of young girls through the provision of a full comprehensive sexuality education (CSE) education package in 60 schools and 40 youth organisations in North and South Kivu, Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) and  17 schools and 33 youth organisations in the Central African Republic (CAR). Topic included among others, gender, relationships, sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR), personal lifeskills and rights.

    In addition the programs creates, in the same target areas, a more enabling community environment concerning the rights of young people and their access to SRHR services. 

    The use of the Minimum Initial Service Package (MISP) (SRHR) is explored in CAR and South Sudan. The health Results-Based Financing (RBF) program promote inclusion of women in all health committees. Cordaid prepared a presentation on SRHR and gender-based violence (GBV) in humanitarian context for  a workshop with the Dutch relief alliance and gender organisations. This is part of a broader exploration of synergies between health and humanitarian aid with regard to SRHR and GBV..

    • Buy-in
    • Field conditions, including insecurity and access

    B. How are these challenges impacting achievement of this transformation?

    Developing innovative programming between health and humanitarian units takes time and there is no cost recovery. 

    Humanitarian programs are often in insecure areas where access an be a problem - SRHRand GBV related services (like a basic health system) are often non or hardly exisiting. Often SRHR is not seen as a priority.       

    4. Highlight actions planned for 2018 to advance implementation of your commitments in order to achieve this transformation.

    Development of an integrated approach for GBV combining health, security and justice and humanitarian aid interventions and services. An intern has been recruited to support this. 

    The Jeune S3 program will continue. 

    5. What steps or actions are needed to make collective progress to achieve this transformation?

    More access and coordination around kits SRHR .

    Maintaining a minimal level of health services in areas affected by protracted crisis is important. Development donors should be less risk averse and (continue) support even in crisis (crisis modifiers) and immediately after crisis pick up the longer term support. 

    6. List any good practice or examples of innovation undertaken individually or in cooperation with others to advance this transformation.

    Getting together with three units and develop a TOR for an intern was a supportive activity.
