COVID-19 Response 2nd Activation in Solomon Islands AHP (SLB-0045)

This initiative builds resilience of targeted communities to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic in terms of improved food security and livelihoods and access to water, sanitation and hygiene, while ensuring inclusion and protection of vulnerable groups and community capacity to manage COVID related and other risks. The program is implemented by a consortium of AHP agencies working with an extensive range of local actors including local government, the biggest church denominations and networks in the country, local non-government organisations, associations and committees representing target groups and community based organisations. The program builds upon the partners’ extensive experience in disaster risk management in the targeted locations and sectors and the established consortium structure. The consortium ensures value for money through access to shared services, coordination and leveraging of the operational presence and current projects implemented by the partners including the DFAT funded regional Disaster READY Program and COVID-19 Pacific Preparedness project
