4 Consolidated Appeals Process (CAP) The CAP is much more than an appeal for money. It is an inclusive and coordinated programme cycle of: Strategic planning leading to a Common Humanitarian Action Plan (CHAP); Resource mobilisation (leading to a Consolidated Appeal or a Flash Appeal); Coordinated programme implementation; Joint monitoring and evaluation; Revision, if necessary; and Reporting on results. The CHAP is a strategic plan for humanitarian response in a given country or region and includes the following elements: A common analysis of the context in which humanitarian action takes place; An assessment of needs; Best, worst, and most likely scenarios; Stakeholder analysis, i.e. who does what and where; A clear statement of longerterm objectives and goals; Prioritised response plans; and A framework for monitoring the strategy and revising it if necessary. The CHAP is the foundation for developing a Consolidated Appeal or, when crises break or natural disasters strike, a Flash Appeal. Under the leadership of the Humanitarian Coordinator, the CHAP is developed at the field level by the InterAgency Standing Committee (IASC) Country Team. This team mirrors the IASC structure at headquarters and includes UN agencies and standing invitees, i.e. the International Organization for Migration (IOM), the Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement, and NGOs that belong to ICVA, Interaction, or SCHR. NonIASC members, such as national NGOs, can be included, and other key stakeholders in humanitarian action, in particular host governments and donors, should be consulted. The Humanitarian Coordinator is responsible for the annual preparation of the consolidated appeal document. The document is launched globally each November to enhance advocacy and resource mobilisation. An update, known as the MidYear Review, is to be presented to donors in July Donors provide resources to appealing agencies directly in response to project proposals. The Financial Tracking Service (FTS), managed by the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA), is a database of donor contributions and can be found on In sum, the CAP works to provide people in need the best available protection and assistance, on time.

7 BURUNDI EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The past year witnessed important milestones in the country s progress towards consolidation of peace and economic recovery. These include the signing of a ceasefire agreement by the last remaining rebel faction, the National Liberation Forces (Forces Nationales pour la Liberation [FNL]), on 7 September 2006, and the launch of longterm development planning frameworks such as the Poverty Reduction Strategy Paper (PRSP). At the same time, the consequences of the decadelong conflict and the government s weak delivery capacity warrant continued humanitarian attention. Important humanitarian challenges remain in 2007, including the need to mitigate the negative sideeffects of the expected return of approximately 100,000 Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) and more than 390,000 refugees in view of the already scarce resources, in particular land. BASIC FACTS Burundi ranks as the 8 th poorest country in the world in the 2005 Human Development Index; 68% of the population lives under the poverty line; 41% of the population is chronically malnourished; More than one million people will require food aid in 2007; There are 100,000 IDPs and an estimated 395,000 Burundian refugees in countries of asylum, most of them in Tanzania. The Burundi CAP 2006 included many early recovery and peacebuilding activities in addition to the more traditional humanitarian projects in order to support the new government s momentous task of rebuilding a country emerging from a protracted crisis. Following the progress made in national planning for medium and longterm development activities however, the CAP 2007 will focus solely on core humanitarian concerns and is guided by the following three strategic priorities: 1. Surveillance of the humanitarian situation and early warning, with particular attention to the needs of displaced persons and returnees; 2. Rapid response to localised humanitarian emergencies; 3. Reduction of the vulnerability resulting from the lack of access to basic services. The Burundi CAP 2007 requests an overall amount of US$ million to implement its planned humanitarian activities. 1 All dollar figures in this document are United States dollars. Funding for this appeal should be reported to the Financial Tracking Service (FTS, fts@reliefweb.int), which will display its requirements and funding on the CAP 2007 page. 1

10 BURUNDI IN REVIEW Following its inauguration in August 2005, the new government embarked on a series of early recovery and development initiatives as it was eager to demonstrate the dividends of peace and to rebuild a country ravaged by the decadelong crisis. In support of these efforts the CAP in 2006 included early recovery and peace building activities in addition to humanitarian projects. 2.1 GOALS AND PRIORITIES The overarching goals and priorities agreed by humanitarian partners in late 2005 were to: Assure and strengthen early warning and rapid response to populations at risk; Support the process of transition from relief to development with an emphasis on short to mediumterm programmes focusing on population reinsertion and community recovery; Reduce disparities among different population groups and regions, especially concerning access to basic services and resources at the household level; Monitor protection and human rights issues affecting populations, human rights dissemination and promotion. The four most likely scenarios outlined in the CHAP 2006, notably stabilisation of the security situation, high vulnerability due to structural deficiencies, high level of repatriation and continuing return of IDP populations, remained accurate (with the exception of predicted returns of 150,000 Burundian refugees, which was revised downward to 55,000 as part of the midyear review process). Consequently, the overarching goals were maintained and interventions were not radically changed throughout the year. 2.2 EVENTS AND ACHIEVEMENTS The signing of a ceasefire agreement by the last remaining rebel group, FNL, was a major development in 2006 and led to a significant improvement of the protection situation of populations in the provinces of Bujumbura Mairie and Bubanza. Still, a continuous flow of cases of arbitrary arrests, killings and torture as well as sexual and gender based violence have been reported throughout the year. The gradual withdrawal of the United Nations (UN) peacekeeping force, due to be completed by the end of the year, is another sign of the improved security and protection situation. In order to replace the peacekeeping mission and to support the government s efforts in consolidating peace, the Security Council adopted resolution 1719 (2006) on 25 October 2006, which establishes the United Nations Integrated Office in Burundi (BINUB) effective 1 January BINUB s mandate focuses on core security and governance issues such as disarmament, reconciliation and human rights. Support for peace consolidation will also be the focus of the recently established UN Peace Building Commission (PBC), which has adopted Burundi as one of its first two focus countries. Despite these positive developments however, 2006 was characterised by a low level of return of displaced populations. At the time of writing it is doubtful whether the downwardly revised target of 55,000 Burundian returnees will be achieved (about 28,150 having returned by early October). This despite the Tripartite Commission for the Voluntary Repatriation of Burundian Refugees (Government of Burundi (GoB), Government of Tanzania and United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR)) having decided to shift from facilitation of repatriation to promotion on 20 June in response to the stabilised situation in Burundi. Nonetheless, other unforeseen movements were recorded, including the arrival of Rwandan asylum seekers, the return of Burundian asylum seekers from Tanzania, and the expulsion of Burundians living without refugee status in Western Tanzania. The number of Rwandan asylum seekers peaked around March at 20,000 in three sites in Ngozi and Kirundo provinces. A coordinated response involving numerous humanitarian actors (GoB, UN, NonGovernment Organisations (NGOs)) allowed the government and UNHCR to conduct individual refugee status determination. These were completed by the end of August. Approximately 5,000 refugees are still awaiting a decision on their status. 133 persons received the refugee status and the remainder were repatriated to Rwanda. In early April about 13,000 Burundian asylum seekers arrived within a week in Ruyigi province having fled to Tanzania due to food insecurity and the dire socioeconomic circumstances. They were forced to return, as their situation did not warrant a refugee status. Moreover, other Burundians have been 4

11 BURUNDI 2007 expelled from Tanzania over the course of the year. At the time of writing the number of registered expulsions was close to 3,000. A response was initiated with the support of the GoB, the Burundian Red Cross (BRC), UNHCR, World Food Programme (WFP), United Nations Children s Fund (UNICEF) and Norwegian Refugee Council (NRC), which will remain important in A key development in humanitarian response was the launch of an Emergency Programme in February by the government to bridge emergency actions with the start of activities under the PRSP. Although half the activities featured in the programme were identical to projects incorporated in the CAP, cooperation and coordination between the government and the humanitarian community improved in the course of the year. In particular improvement was noticed at the central level through the National Aid Coordination Committee (NACC) and at the provincial level through the joint OCHA NACC missions in support of the focal point coordination system. The humanitarian community was able to conduct early warning and rapid response activities throughout the year, notably in the area of food security, agriculture and nutrition as well as in regard to population movements. In the health sector related activities were conducted through programmes against localised cholera, meningitis and malaria outbreaks, as well as through the improvement of epidemiological surveillance and referral systems. Rapid assessments and response mechanisms functioned well during the hailstorms and floods around April and May Some key humanitarian developments and achievement in priority sectors are outlined below. Food and agriculture: The beginning of the year was already marked by a bad 2006A harvest, which required a significant response in the areas of emergency agriculture and food aid. Until the beginning of the 2006B harvest, the distribution of food, seeds and tools conducted by all partners facilitated a better second harvest in the year. Similar activities were maintained for the 2006C season and in preparation of the 2007A season. In the latter case, approximately 15% of the Burundian population received agricultural assistance. Health: In May 2006, the GoB s decision to provide free health care to children under five years of age, strained an already poor health care infrastructure. To alleviate some of the new demands on the sector the humanitarian community, with the support of the European Community Humanitarian Office, provided threemonths of emergency stocks from October December 2006, pending a longerterm solution. Response to natural disasters and early warning activities: The humanitarian community responded to localised natural disasters such as rain, hailstorms and floods, the most serious of which occurred in April and May. These localised natural disasters were followed by immediate assessment missions and targeted distributions of the Catholic Relief Services (CRS) and the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO). The World Health Organization (WHO) has undertaken early warning and response activities to outbreaks of epidemics such as cholera and malaria through established mechanisms like the food security early warning and control system (SAPSSA). WHO and FAO have jointly undertaken the surveillance of suspected bird flu cases and the establishment of national response structures. Education: 2006 also witnessed the end of the first school year after the implementation of the presidential decision to render primary education free of charge. Although UNICEF coordinated a response to absorb the massive increase in primary school children, an estimated 150,000 children could not be integrated into the first year of school. This had a knockon effect in the new school year that started in late September 2006 when the remainder of these children had to be integrated into classes. 2.3 CUMULATIVE RESULT IN TERMS OF REDUCING VULNERABILITY OR RISK Burundi continues to have enormous structural deficiencies and challenges, which made a reduction in vulnerability and risk difficult. Moreover, any humanitarian shortterm activities have to be complemented by longterm development activities to resolve the root causes of the recurring humanitarian crises in Burundi, which was not possible to achieve through the CAP alone. The two most significant sectors in which humanitarian response can not only save lives, but also contribute towards a reduction of vulnerability, are the food security sector and the multi sector. With regard to food security, it should be noted that even though the 2006A season production was the worst since 1995 due to the lack of rain and cumulative cyclical and structural weaknesses in the 5

12 BURUNDI 2007 postconflict context, efforts undertaken by FAO, WFP and its partners in preparation of the 2006B and 2006C seasons resulted in decent second and third harvests. It kept households active and prevented them from slipping away from fragile yet important stability. Consequently, the 2006B harvest was the best harvest of a B season in two years. Still, looking at 2006 as a whole, the production was down by 1%. Forecasts for the near future indicate that climatic patterns will be less erratic and allow for a decent 2007A season. Multi sector activities that had been undertaken by UNHCR and partner NGOs continued to play a vital role in the provision of assistance in shelter construction. As a result returning families were prevented from entering the vicious circle of lacking land, subsequently being forced into renewed displacement and experiencing increased vulnerability. A total number of 16,300 houses have been constructed by UNHCR alone, though the needs remained much higher than the envisaged assistance. 2.4 LESSONS LEARNED FOR THE CAP 2007 The most important lesson learned for the CAP 2007 is that the multitude of appeals and framework documents created confusion and affected the implementation of the CAP. As such, despite good initial intentions, the CAP 2006 proved too farreaching and a number of projects were not implemented as planned, particularly in the sectors of reintegration and economic recovery. The Emergency Programme, which was presented by the government in February 2006, was falsely perceived as a competitor to the CAP. To avoid such confusion in 2007 the IASC Country Team, in close consultation with the government, decided to jointly elaborate a downsized CAP that focuses on humanitarian activities. The CAP 2007 is consistent with government priorities for humanitarian action. This underlines the larger development frameworks such as the PRSP, which is expected to come into force in early In order to locate the gaps humanitarian activities should address, it is important to recall the four strategic areas of the PRSP for Burundi: 1. Improvement of good governance and the security situation; 2. Promotion of durable and equitable economic growth; 3. Development of human capital; 4. Fight against Human Immunodeficiency Virus/Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (HIV/AIDS). This is expected to address and improve the situation of six vulnerable groups: Populations living in extreme poverty; displaced populations (including IDPs and refugees); households affected by HIV/AIDS; childheaded and femaleheaded households; children and older persons; as well as disabled persons. 2.5 FUNDING The revised 2006 CAP for Burundi of $117,800,086 was 45% funded at the time of writing. The best funded sectors were multi sector, education and agriculture with 84%, 30% and 33% of the required funds received for each respective sector. Some of the least funded sectors included heath, with only 9% and mine action and water and sanitation with a mere 14% of required funds received. It should be highlighted that Burundi benefited, as one of the most underfunded emergencies, from two rounds of allocations of about $2 million each from the newly established Central Emergency Response Fund (CERF). The total CAP funding mentioned above already includes the CERF funds. 6

13 BURUNDI THE 2007 COMMON HUMANITARIAN ACTION PLAN 3.1 THE CONTEXT AND ITS HUMANITARIAN CONSEQUENCES 3.1.A The context The context of humanitarian action in Burundi has changed significantly in 2007 in two main areas: (1) the signing of the long awaited ceasefire agreement between the GoB and the last rebel group on 7 September 2006; and (2) the submission of Burundi s PRSP due for approval in early Despite these positive developments however, extreme structural poverty and declining humanitarian and development indicators continue to plague the country. Burundi is one of the most densely populated countries on earth (just under 300 persons / km 2 ) without any particular natural resources worth mentioning. The population of Burundi is growing rapidly (22.5%), whilst its economy has been shrinking in net terms over the last decade (the Gross Domestic Product of Burundi dropped by 20% in real terms between 1993 and 2002). The newly elected government has launched many initiatives despite its important capacity limitations and has found goodwill among the international community. The biggest challenge will be to respond to the needs of the population quickly in order to decrease vulnerability and consolidate peace. The government plans to work with the International Monetary Fund s poverty reduction growth facility and the debtrelief process for highly indebted poor countries on the basis of a validated PRSP. If approved, this process could earn the country $1.5 billion in debt relief in nominal terms and free up investment for poverty reduction. As a result of the expected rollout of these frameworks, the CAP in 2007 will not address early recovery issues and has been limited to core lifesaving activities. Moreover, the PBC has selected Burundi, along with Sierra Leone, as primary focus of its work. The commission will launch and fund activities in the areas of: (1) promotion of good governance; (2) reinforcement of the rule of law and the security sector as well as; (3) community development with an emphasis on youth, street children, land conflicts, access to resources by women, IDPs and excombatants. Even though the operational component is not clearly defined yet, it is clear that the PBC will make considerable sums available to Burundi from its $142 million fund. This must be taken into consideration to better focus CAP activities. It will have an important impact for instance on human rightsoriented activities in the CAP as a whole. Even though protection will still feature in the CAP 2007, it will be concentrated on specific vulnerable groups such as returnees, IDPs, refugees, expelled persons, asylum seekers and vulnerable children. Due to the positive political developments in the country, it is inevitable that the capacity of humanitarian actors to deliver basic services would decrease as they either withdraw their activities or transition to more longterm development programmes. This important aspect should be considered in the development of a contingency plan in case of a deterioration of the political and socioeconomic situation in the country. It should also be noted that there will be a nominal change in the CAP Food aid, which is provided by WFP, used to be appealed for via the Great Lakes Region CAP. As such, food aid did not feature in previous CAPs for Burundi. WFP now decided to change this practice, which has lead to a disproportionate increase in the Burundi CAP 2007 budget for food aid. The overall Burundi CAP 2007 requirements, however, still reflect a significant decrease of 28% in comparison to the Burundi CAP 2006 (including the food aid component previously registered under the regional appeal). 7

However, since the decision to launch a CAP in 2007 was taken late, a comprehensive integrated assessment could not be undertaken. Statistics and data on expected or most likely humanitarian consequences are therefore derived from sectoral consultations supported by lead agencies. The following sections describe the situation per sector in detail showing the humanitarian consequences where measurable. The food aid sector was combined with Agriculture, whereas the sector of Economic Recovery was left out since no project was included for Food Security, Agriculture and Food Aid In the food security sector, household vulnerabilities are most apparent, particularly since 90% of the population live in rural areas. The 1% decrease of gross agricultural production in 2006 compared to 2005 continues to leave a big gap between food production and needs, which have continuously increased. Currently, 65% of the total population in Burundi lives below the minimum standard of daily calorie intake (2,100 kcal / person). This means that only about one third of the Burundian population has an acceptable diet. The population will also continue to face a food deficit even if all harvests in 2007 are good. This is compounded with high food and seed prices. In addition, the cassava mosaic disease (Ugandan strand) and diseases affecting banana plantations continue to affect parts of the harvests. Yet, coordinated and sustained emergency agricultural assistance in 2007 should allow humanitarian and development actors involved in Burundi to build on this significant albeit shortlived, household livelihood stability in order to move towards addressing more structural issues. Health / Nutrition Burundi is one of the countries where health indicators continue to feature as among the worst in the world. Malaria remains a primary public health concern. Despite the significant drop in costs further to the implementation of the National Protocol, the mortality rate remains as high as 47% for children under 5 years. Moreover, localised cholera and meningitis epidemics are certain to occur at the known intervals with a couple of thousand cases to be tested and possibly treated. Infections often are fatal because medical staff is inadequately trained, due to the absence of efficient control systems, poor performance of epidemiological surveillance systems, or underequipped laboratories. The rate of severe malnutrition is below the critical level of 10%, but this is offset by widespread chronic malnutrition (currently at 43%). The monthly average of admissions to supplementary feeding centres remains around 14,000. Malnutrition fluctuates according to the season and is contingent on topographic, climatic and other public health factors. The zones most at risk are large parts of Muyinga, Kirundo, Cankuzo and Karuzi. Whilst the decision on making aspects of health care free of charge is being implemented through the National Health Policy and the fiveyear National Health Development Plan, it will be important that humanitarian actors mitigate the negative consequences and the results of widespread vulnerability. 2 Food Aid was appealed for via the Great Lakes CAP 2006 and the amount has to be deducted from the total to arrive at the amount appealed for in the Burundi CAP

16 BURUNDI 2007 The population has been confronted with access constraints: many of the patients (8090%) go into debt or sell their belongings to pay for medical costs (policy of cost sharing varies from one province to the other); access to second level referral services still remains a serious problem without a solution; the capacity to carry out emergency surgical procedures is limited; the costs of a surgical intervention (a caesarean section for example costs between $150 and $400 in the public hospitals) are unaffordable; the referral system is only functioning in five provinces; many hospitals do not have the personnel and/or equipment to respond to emergencies. Admissions to SFC and TFC SFC admissions TFC admissions SFC TFC Jul05 Aug05 Sep05 Oct05 Nov05 Dec05 Jan06 Feb06 Mar06 Apr06 May06 Jun06 Jul06 Aug06 Month Year 0 Refugees / Repatriation (Multisector and Family Shelter) It is expected that in 2007 some 80,000 Burundian refugees will return to their country of origin. The majority of them will return to the Eastern and Central provinces. If the ceasefire holds and translates into concrete improvements of the situation on the ground, then returns to formerly conflictprone provinces are also expected to increase. Moreover, some 12,500 campbased and an estimated 18,500 urban refugees and asylum seekers from the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) will remain in Burundi at the beginning of the year, taking into account the ongoing repatriation of some of the Congolese refugees that make up by far the largest part of the refugee population. It is envisaged that about 8,000 houses will be constructed for returnees and multisectoral assistance will be provided to receiving communities as well as to refugees. Moreover, the low level of returns of Burundians expelled from Tanzania is likely to continue, requiring continuation of the current response involving the government, the Red Cross, UN agencies and NGOs. 10

18 BURUNDI 2007 Education For 2006 it was predicted that the negative humanitarian consequences would be high as a result of the presidential decision to provide free universal primary education starting September Even though the needs have increased and will continue to do so into 2007, there is ever less justification to consider this humanitarian consequences and needs. Initially, it was termed such, due to the shortterm nature of the response. However, one year on, these activities were taken off the CAP and are now seen as urgent development needs, though no longer humanitarian. As a result, humanitarian consequences in the sector are limited to emergency education and peace education of displaced populations including refugees, IDPs as well as for returning populations of certain vulnerability. Water and Sanitation The water and sanitation sector is marred by structural deficiencies, with some 50% of the rural population lacking access to potable water within a reach of 500 meters. Moreover, 70% are believed to be without proper sanitation facilities. This of course aggravates humanitarian consequences in many other sectors, in particular health and nutrition. Since the rehabilitation of the water and sanitation system will be: (a) a long and drawn out process, and; (b) a focus of development activities as of 2007, activities as part of the CAP will only focus on emergency response type initiatives. Protection The humanitarian consequences in the protection sector are limited even though the overall protection situation is still characterised by postconflict problems including torture, arbitrary arrests and killings. However, since the armed conflict has stopped with the conclusion of the ceasefire agreement, the most pressing humanitarian protection issues such as night time displacement and access do not arise any longer. This means that the humanitarian consequences in the protection sector will remain very limited in 2007 but will continue to be monitored and addressed if need be by the Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR). The signing of a ceasefire agreement between the government and the FNL movement early September 2006 immediately had a positive impact on human rights in the provinces of Bujumbura rural, Bubanza and Cibitoke. The overall number of violations (mainly looting, extortion and disappearances) has significantly declined as rebel forces have remained quiet and officially allowed to get food supplies at the local markets without intervention from the national defence forces or the police. By contrast, little progress has been made in the field of transitional justice despite several high level visits to Burundi to establish a Truth and Reconciliation Commission. Discussions continue within the framework of the new PBC, which has chosen Burundi as one of its pilot countries. No CAP 2006 projects related to this topic have been implemented or at best only partially. Internal displacement has practically stopped. While most provinces have enjoyed relative security, apart from the occasional armed banditry, the number of IDPs returning to their homes has remained low. Harsh economic and agricultural conditions and lack of sufficient trust among communities may explain this status quo. But other factors, such as new opportunities and livelihood found in sites or villages may also contribute to this slow return. The overall number of IDPs in sites or villages is estimated at around 100,000 (no OCHA survey was conducted in 2006 to allow for precise comparisons). A greater number of persons still live with relatives or neighbours (socalled dispersed persons ) and are not accounted for in this figure. Lack of means to rebuild houses remains an additional obstacle to the return of both IDPs and returning refugees and is consequently a priority in the PRSP and PBC frameworks. In view of the evolution within the country, protection and human rights projects for the CAP 2007 will focus on specific groups directly affected by the conflict like returning refugees and IDPs. Mine Action Preliminary findings of the survey conducted by the Swiss Demining Foundation (Fondation Suisse de Déminage [FSD]) on the mine risk in all collines in Burundi show the contamination is much less severe than was previously thought. The FSD gathered accurate data on more than 97% of all communities and identified 192 mine/ Explosive Remnants of War (ERW) hazardous areas. In total 3.3% of the collines are affected and a total of merely 0.27% of the total population are directly affected. However, Suspected Hazardous Areas (SHA) are located in the vicinity of public places such as schools, markets, medical facilities or churches. About 50% of those SHA are believed to 12

19 BURUNDI 2007 contain mines, the other 50% locations of Unexploded Ordnance. The geographical distribution of SHA indicates that the provinces of Bubanza, Bujumbura Rural, Makamba, and Ruyigi are the most affected. The most prevalent resource blockages are agriculture and pasture land. Since mid2006 is the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) the key facilitator in the coordination of the mine action sector through its support for the Burundi Mine Action Coordination Centre (BURMACC). The sansaddresse of Kinazi In May 2006, the GoB made the site of Kinazi (Muyinga province) available so that UN and NGO partners would be able to assist Burundian nationals who have been expelled from Tanzania and have no place to go to in their home country. Many of them left Burundi with their parents as a result of: food shortage; lack of resources or land. Others were born in Tanzania but never regularized their stay. Ezechiel used to be a cobbler in Bukiriro in Tanzania, but one day he returned home only to Elias and his family in front of their community shelter in Kinazi find his wife and three children chased from their house by locals. He had to hide for three days in a forest before making his way across the border himself. The family is separated and their lives destroyed. When he arrived in Kinazi he was told that they had come through and left to join their family in Bugabira. Ezechiel is lost: I don t know her family and I don t even know where Bugabira is. Many of the individuals or families who arrive in Kinazi share similar stories. They have no connections to Burundi any longer. Few know where their relatives live, and even fewer have resources to sustain themselves. Elias, who returned to Kinazi with his wife and five children, says: I thought I could go to the community of my parents [Giteranyi] to settle, but the local administrator did not know how to help us and sent us back to Kinazi [transit site]. They have been stranded there since. Many new arrivals report others being forced to leave and the 3,000 who have come back so far, only seem to be the tip of the iceberg. Nobody knows for sure how many Burundians live in Tanzania without having regularized their stay, but most estimate around 150,000 persons. This will remain a key challenge in 2007, especially since the new arrivals need assistance and in particular socalled sans addresses like Elias, who hopes that the Burundian Government can find us a plot of land where I can build a house and send my children to school. Overall and across all sectors it should be reiterated that the structure of humanitarian consequences is conditioned by high structural vulnerabilities where minor disturbances (climatic, security or otherwise) could have an important impact. A good example of this is the household food security. According to the WFP Vulnerability Analysis and Mapping 2004, 16% of the Burundians live in chronic food insecurity, while on the other hand; only 16% of Burundians are considered food secure. The remainder will be able to stabilise and possibly improve its food security status only with the absence of drought and stable security conditions. The potential for absorption of such shocks remains extremely limited in Burundi and vulnerability patterns can deteriorate in a very sudden and rapid manner. 13

21 3.2 SCENARIOS BURUNDI 2007 Based on reviews by the interagency contingency planning team (UN agencies, International Non Governmental Organisations and humanitarian donors), five emergency profiles have been identified: Population Influx Population Movement within Burundi Scenarios Epidemics (cholera, malaria, meningitis) Natural Disasters / Catastrophes Mass Repatriation Trigger Problems in the aftermath of the DRC elections Continuing food insecurity and localised security problems Structural deficiencies (notably water and sanitation, and interdependence situations and potential arrival of avian influenza Increasing demographic pressure combined with lack of land and climatic disturbances and interdependence with other situations Shift from facilitation to promotion in June 2006; combination of push and pull factors (e.g. expulsions from Tanzania and signing of ceasefire) Most likely case and/or operational objective Worst case and/or operational objective Smallscale influx of a couple of hundred refugees Assist 30,000 persons immediately (water, shelter, food, health, protection) Limited population movements (less than 10,000) largely due to food shortages. Ensure assistance to 140,000 persons initially over a twomonth period Seasonal localised epidemics with a limited caseload Largescale epidemic The operational objective depends on the type of epidemic Limitedscale disasters requiring sporadic assistance a total of 2,000 households mainly due to heavy rains Emergency assistance to between 200,000 and 500,000 persons About 80,000 returnees over the year and 10,000 expelled Burundians. Between 50,000 returnees per week and 300,000 returnees in one month It should be noted that neither the government nor the humanitarian actors with their current existing capacity could adequately address the gaps in the mass repatriation scenario. This lack of capacity will critically affect the quality of the response not only during the immediate phase of returns but also during the initial phase of reintegration with host communities. 3.3 STRATEGIC PRIORITIES FOR HUMANITARIAN RESPONSE Although the PRSP puts a clear emphasis on combating poverty and structural development, it is understood that the slow onset of these activities will warrant continued humanitarian support to absorb shocks. A section on food security on the PRSP reiterates this by stating that: whilst working towards growth in production and the restoration of food security as well as an improvement of the nutritional situation, emergency assistance will be sought in order to assist persons affected by food shortages. Activities conducted, as part of the CHAP shall therefore complement those carried out under the PRSP. In addition, sectoral approaches might keep coherent with longer term oriented programmes so that the former do not affect the effectiveness of the latter. The strategic priorities for humanitarian response will thus reflect the overall logic of the CAP 2007 for Burundi. It will especially address contingencies and gaps that can arise from the slow onset of development activities and counter extreme vulnerability with a clear emphasis on live saving activities. The three strategic priorities for humanitarian response have been defined as follows: 1) Surveillance of the humanitarian situation and early warning with particular attention to the needs of displaced persons and returnees; 2) Rapid response to localised humanitarian emergencies; 3) Reduction of the vulnerability resulting from the lack of access to basic services. 15

22 3.4 RESPONSE PLANS 3.4.A Agriculture BURUNDI 2007 Agriculture Priorities Provide surveillance and early warning; Ensure and support rapid response; Assist vulnerable households. Objectives Provide immediate and quick support to populations who lose or have lost their means of production as a result of climatic shocks, crop pests, conflict and/or displacement; Support vulnerable populations during the lean period in order to ensure that agricultural potential during planting and harvest seasons can be drawn upon; Assistance in agriculture and small livestock to groups with special vulnerabilities, such as households without access to land, particularly IDPs and displaced persons as well as households with a vulnerability as a result of HIV/AIDS; Rehabilitation of rural infrastructure with a potential for high productivity including marshlands abandoned by fleeing populations. This will be prioritised in order to alleviate extreme vulnerability beyond the shortterm in order to limit emergency response interventions. Main Activities Coordination of agricultural activities will be ensured by FAO (Emergency and Rehabilitation Unit) and by WFP for activities in the area of food aid (see below). These are complementary and unified by common sectoral coordination mechanisms as well as common baseline data and methods. Concrete activities include: Distribution of agricultural supplies for the three agricultural seasons; Support through CashforWork programmes to the most vulnerable households in Burundi; Evaluation (twice a year) of harvests and supplies and deficits in terms of available food as well as the general nutritional situation. This will be done across the whole of Burundi in cooperation with the line Ministry, FAO, WFP, UNICEF and OCHA; Evaluation (twice a year) of the impact of joint distributions (seeds, tools, seeds protection rations) conducted by FAO and WFP; Participatory evaluation of the impact on particular communities benefiting from targeted assistance in a set number of provinces; Monthly early warning reports produced jointly by the provincial office of the line Ministry, UN agencies and NGOs within the SAPSSA framework. Main Partners FAO, WFP, UNICEF, OCHA, Direction Provinciale de l'agriculture et de l'elevage, CRS, Conseil pour l Education et le Développement (COPED), BRC, World Vision (WV), Solidarités, Action Contre la Faim (ACF), Action Aid. 3.4.B Coordination and Support Services Coordination and Support Services Priorities Coordinate monitoring of the humanitarian situation and early warning systems through implementation of the humanitarian reform agenda; Coordinate rapid and effective response. Objectives Strengthen IASC country team; Integration of coordination mechanisms into NACC structures; Properly functioning CERF mechanisms; Improved tools and services for integration with GoB and other frameworks (PRSP, United Nations Development Assistance Framework or other). Main Activities Conduct regular meetings (see underneath) in order to achieve efficient and effective humanitarian coordination; Conduct contingency preparedness exercise; Conduct joint rapid assessments and response; Coordination structures and fora will undergo a continued integration process with existing NACC structures. As it was already decided during the midyear review of the CAP 2006, NACC sectoral coordination and the aforementioned structures will be harmonised. NACC, which is already present via technical experts in each of the meetings, will gradually assume a more important role in the technical coordination meetings.

Objectives Improve access for children from vulnerable households, in particular returnee and displaced children, to quality primary education and primary school completion; Provide adequate infrastructure; Strengthen monitoring mechanisms to ensure adequate supervision of newly trained teachers and partners. Main Activities Primary school children from returning IDP and refugee families are provided with material and equipment to integrate in schools; Installation of additional temporary learning spaces using tents and plastic sheeting and rehabilitation of existing classroom units and latrines; Provision of training; Provision of teaching material and equipment. Main Partners UNICEF, UNHCR, WFP, NRC 3.4.D Shelter and NonFood Items Shelter and NonFood Items Priorities Alleviate suffering of the most vulnerable persons as a result of return of displaced populations; Mitigate humanitarian consequences of disasters. Objectives Support the voluntary repatriation of Burundian refugees in safety and dignity; Improve living conditions in areas of return through construction of shelters for returnees (and including displaced and other vulnerable families), based on a selfhelp scheme; Alleviate suffering of populations in destitute as a result of natural disaster (often microdisaster).

24 3.4.E Food BURUNDI 2007 Food Aid Priorities Provision of food aid to populations with emergency needs; Provision of food aid to most vulnerable households. Objectives Provide if necessary emergency food aid of populations affected by drought; Protect the limited means for subsistence and reinforce household capacity to absorb shocks; Contribute to an improvement of the nutritional status of vulnerable persons, in particular children and mothers; Facilitate access to basic services (notably education) with an emphasis on disadvantaged groups. Main Activities These interventions are completed by emergency response activities such as targeted distributions; selective nutrition for moderately and severely malnourished children; and the response programmes initiated via FoodForWork (FFW) and FoodForTraining (FFT) activities. Emergency interventions destined to meet the minimum food needs of vulnerable households incapable of producing sufficient amounts of their own, will decrease in favour of recovery operations. Recovery activities will allow to revitalise the means for existence of households and reinforce their capacities to resist eventual shocks. Food aid will be used to subsidise immediate needs of households engaged in recovery activities. FFW and FFT activities aim at reconstituting production means and improving access to basic services. In 2007, there will be 1,230,000 persons in need of food aid including emergency and recovery need. Main Partners Activities will include: Identifying and prioritising high quality projects; A better targeting process bringing together all stakeholders; A reduction of targeted distributions in favour of recovery activities (e.g. FFW and FFT); Launch of CashForWork activities; Close collaboration with partners, especially FAO and UNICEF; Resultsbased monitoring and evaluation; Conduct assessment of vulnerability and food security situation in Burundi, which will allow stakeholders to plan interventions beyond WFP, CARE, WV, CRS, BRC, Solidarités 18

27 4. STRATEGIC MONITORING PLAN BURUNDI 2007 The humanitarian community in close collaboration with the GoB agreed as part of the CHAP 2007 to integrate monitoring activities under the leadership of the NACC. In terms of concrete coordination mechanisms it was recommended by the NACC and maintained by the humanitarian community in Burundi to: Create a consultation framework which will bring together on monthly basis NACC, the IASC country team and key donors to continuously assess and review the implementation of humanitarian activities; Maintain and reinforce the three Thematic Groups (Food Security/Food Aid/Nutrition, Repatriation/Reintegration and Health/Nutrition) and ensure NACC cooperation and presence; Hold monthly IASC country team meetings including humanitarian donor representatives to monitor the humanitarian situation and response in Burundi; Maintain the provincial coordination mechanisms via the Focal Point meetings, under the coordination of the decentralised NACC antennae. It should be noted that the GoB has put an important emphasis on proper reporting structures and even though the CAP 2007 does not account for reporting mechanisms except for the FTS, it was agreed that reporting systems will be reinforced in terms of regularity and standardisation of reports by humanitarian actors and in terms of information management, sharing and guidance by the NACC. The aforementioned monthly meeting of humanitarian stakeholders will also take concrete action on assessment and evaluation of the humanitarian situation in Burundi, with the aim to arrive at an objective basis for humanitarian decisionmaking in 2007 and beyond. The strategic monitoring indicators against which the humanitarian community will monitor and measure progress include: 1. Quarterly acute and moderate malnutrition rate; 2. Percentage of households requiring agricultural assistance and/or food aid family ration; 3. Delay between early warning, and coordinated response; 4. Decisions implemented stemming from joint IASC Country Team/NACC consultation framework; 5. Epidemic mortality rate (cholera, meningitis, malaria); 6. Funding coverage per sector; 7. Ration of number of returnees re settled on their hill compared with the number of those staying in transit accommodation beyond a week; 8. Mother and child health consultations rate and % of birth medically assisted. 5. CRITERIA FOR PRIORITISATION OF PROJECTS The criteria for CAP project prioritisation will be based on their relevance to strategic priorities and sector objectives as defined. Moreover, the following criteria will be considered for prioritisation: 1. Alignment with the CHAP 2007 priorities and complementarities with other frameworks of intervention; 2. The project conducts lifesaving activities; 3. The project follows IASC country team recommendations; 4. The appealing agency has experience in the sector and ideally a track record in Burundi. In line with section four above, a comprehensive joint evaluation of the humanitarian situation shall be conducted next year following tools such as the Needs Analysis Framework. This would provide an objective, quantitative as well as qualitative basis for the prioritisation of humanitarian activities, but shall also allow highlighting linkages, gaps and complementarities between the humanitarian response and development programmes. 21

35 BURUNDI ANNEX I. INTERNATIONAL FEDERATION OF THE RED CROSS AND RED CRESCENT SOCIETIES BURUNDI APPEAL TOTAL FOR 2007: CHF 3,584,043(US$ 2,854,623 or EUR 2,249,465) Note: This budget figure is subject to change as the appeal is currently being revised. Please refer to for details on the Appeal where the updated narrative and budget will be issued shortly. National society context and priorities in 2007 Given its immediate past history, the primary strategy of the Burundi Red Cross (BRC) at this stage is to renew the goodwill of the Federation, the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) and bilateral partners to harness technical support for rebuilding its leadership, management, programme development and implementation capacity. In addition, development of a local resource base is high on the national society s list of priorities to facilitate the impact of service delivery to the communities it serves. Through such impact, the national society will demonstrate is reliable to deliver assistance to the most venerable by both Movement and nonmovement partners. In order to make a meaningful contribution towards the realisation of the Federation s Strategy 2010 and the Algiers Plan of Action and meet the characteristic of a wellfunctioning national society, another priority for the Burundi Red Cross Society is to have a strategic plan in place in early 2006 to chart out the direction for the national society for the next four years. However discussions are ongoing. The vision for the Federation Secretariat during the period is to strengthen the BRC into a wellfunctioning society. Federation support will, therefore, focus on addressing capacity issues at all levels including governance, management and operational levels. Organizational development: The national society will develop a strategic plan to chart out directions for the period based on the plan and develop a cooperation agreement strategy. Some of the activities include: Develop a staff development strategy to include intensive field managers induction and refresher courses at regular intervals. Disseminate and equip field managers with tools such as policy documents, guidelines standard procedures to facilitate their work. Hold quarterly meetings between headquarters staff and field managers to review programme management and take advantage of the forum for inservice training and coaching. Coordination and management: The Secretariat will continue to promote Federation and Movement policies, standards, tools and provide support for the Burundi Red Cross to continue with the Movement/Federation global and/or regional commitments. The evolving humanitarian order means, amongst other things, that to be a wellfunctioning national society must expand its partnership and resource base beyond the Movement. To this effect, support for the establishment, nurturing and the coordination of strategic nonmovement partnerships will be a major activity for the Federation Secretariat. 29
