AP Flood

ap flood

GOAL

To alleviate the suffering of the flood-affected families by strengthening their livelihood and food security support systems, linking the relief and rehabilitation to the development process

The Big Picture

The AP flood of 2005 made it double the disaster for the people. The coastal areas had been struck heavily by the south Asian tsunami just months earlier in December 2004, from which the people had barely recovered.

This made it mandatory for a re-think of the tsunami intervention strategy and some new-think on linking relief to development.

So the flood relief provided by CeFHA and partners went beyond relief and took into account the past and the future of the company.

Outcome

  1. Regularization of school in the Village and Continuation of children’s education
  2. Leadership building
  3. Formation of women’s groups, savings and income generation
  4. Empowerment of women
  5. Health consciousness

1. Food for Work Programme

Relief was planned for 15 days for 57 families through food for work programme - 400 meters’ of gravel road was relaid, and 155 feet and 330 feet of village drain and street drain were built.

2. Broad Non-Food Assistance

  1. School kits to 40 children
  2. Utensils 25 sets
  3. Temporary shelter materials to 25 families
  4. Construction of thatched huts for 16 families
  5. Repair of 10 tiled houses

  7. Livelihood support in the form of small round boats (puttie) to 35 families,
    fishing nets to 40 persons and livestock to 25 families

Food assistance was the immediate need which CeFHA and the partner organisations worked on. Food assistance had to be unconditional, purely humanitarian with no strings attached, but the CeFHA effort managed to tie it to an outcome, directed at letting the community see its self-worth
