The disaster and the Red Cross and Red Crescent response to
date
25 April 2015: earthquake
measuring 7.9 magnitude on
the Richter scale strikes
area between Kathmandu
and Pokhara

Epicenter located 80 km
northwest of Kathmandu,
with hundreds of
aftershocks registered

Initial (preliminary) reports


indicate more than 2,500
deaths, with at least 634 in
the Kathmandu Valley. The
death toll is rising quickly
and the number of
casualties is expected to increase significantly. More than 5,000 houses have collapsed; major damage to
basic infrastructure; many historical landmarks such as the UNESCO World Heritage temples at Basantapur
Durbar Square

27 April 2015: based on the Government of Nepal declaration of a state of emergency and calls for
international humanitarian assistance and a request from the NRCS, Emergency Appeal launched on a
preliminary basis for CHF 33.4m, with Disaster Relief Emergency Fund (DREF) of CHF 500,000 as start-
up funding. The IFRC is in the process of deploying the following global disaster response tools to support
the NRCS: a Head of Operations (HEOps); a 12-person Field Assessment and Coordination Team
(FACT) including Regional Disaster Response Team (RDRT) members; Emergency Response Units
(ERU’s) in the form of Basic Health Care Units (with surgical capacity), Rapid Deployment Hospital,
Logistics, Relief, and an IT / Telecom ERU

The operational strategy


Based on preliminary assessments, the information currently
available, and the evolving nature of the situation, this operation
seeks to provide immediate and subsequent support to the
population most affected by the earthquake. The approach
adopts a ‘One Plan’ by Movement partners so as to ensure well-
coordinated efforts. Recovery interventions will be detailed once
assessments have been undertaken. The initial appeal budget
makes provision for recovery to enable allocation of resources
as needed.

Needs assessment and beneficiary selection


Initial rapid assessments have been conducted by NRCS district
chapters in coordination with the District Disaster Response
Committee (DDRC) in the affected districts. In addition to these
rapid assessments, NRCS has based its analysis of needs on
review of secondary data and situation reports by clusters and
media reports. Assessments indicate needs in the following
sectors:

· Non-food relief and cash: essential relief will be Nepalese Red Cross volunteer providing
provided in the most affected communities. Cash assistance.
interventions will be undertaken to complement relief
item distributions as markets resume operations.
· Health and care: to ensure continued delivery of life-saving health interventions in severely affected areas,
there is a need to support health facilities and local health teams with the deployment of basic health care
units and a rapid deployment hospital. In the medium term, rehabilitation of damaged health facilities will need
to be undertaken, together with re-stocking. The needs will be detailed after assessments.
· Psychosocial support: there is the need to provide psychosocial support, including critical incident stress
management for adults and play therapy for children in affected communities. Responders, some of whom are
directly affected by the quake, will also need stress debriefing and other support in the coming weeks.
· Water: There will be a need to ensure that affected people have access to safe water, pending restoration of
supply. In the medium term, rehabilitation of water systems will need to be undertaken. The needs will be
detailed after assessments.
· Sanitation: Clearing of rubble needs to be done in a manner that will not lead to accumulation of debris,
which combined with stagnant water as a result of potential rains during the season, may pose public health
risks. Clearing of rubble may be done on cash-for-work basis, which would provide participating community
members with a means to earn modest income during the days they play a part in the clearing or recycling
works. Such work will need to take into account the capacity of dump sites to absorb the nature and volume
of debris.
· Hygiene promotion: Disease prevention and health promotion activities at evacuation centres and at
community level need to be undertaken immediately in order to protect health, and prevent the occurrence of
outbreaks of diseases, including water and vector-borne diseases. There is also the need to promote safe
water and food handling, and to provide hygienic items to reinforce practice.
· Shelter: Shelter is a top priority. Damage to shelter and adjoined sanitation facilities, is significant, although
the total numbers will be obtained after assessments. In view of the widespread damage to people’s homes –
and considering that many survivors are apprehensive of returning to their homes or going inside concrete
buildings for fear of aftershocks – the scale of shelter needs is massive. Some affected families are currently
living outside their collapsed homes in open spaces, roadsides, gardens and public spaces. There is a need
for emergency shelter solutions, including tarpaulins and tools. In the medium to longer-term, it will be
necessary to support those whose houses have been damaged to get back to their houses by providing them
with assistance to repair or rebuild applying ‘building back safer’. Shelter assistance has health benefits
because it will contribute, in part, towards reducing the risk of some diseases because inadequate shelter
exposes people to the elements which can in turn increase health risks, including acute respiratory infections,
especially in children.
· Livelihoods: While the livelihoods of people who rely on farming and livestock rearing are not expected to be
significantly impacted by the quake, opportunities for those who rely on labour – especially skilled and non-
skilled workers – will be impacted. That is because their places of work have either been damaged or
destroyed. Interventions aimed at creating income-earning opportunities by the workers who usually rely on
labour to meet their household needs need to be supported, where possible linked to shelter and
water/sanitation activities. For instance, skilled workers such as carpenters can be provided with toolkits and
Page |3

technical training/orientation on building back better and safer. Support for diversification of livelihoods will
also support in enhancing the resilience of affected community members.
· Restoring Family Links: RFL needs in the aftermath of the quake are significant. A web-page has been set
up where people can search for missing persons and register themselves for family members to find them.
· Safe and dignified dead body management: Given the significant number of fatalities, there is a need to
support the authorities in ensuring safe and dignified dead body management that respects the cultural
practices of affected families.

Beneficiary selection: The vulnerabilities of the affected population are layered and multi-faceted. NRCS will ensure
that programmes are aligned with IFRC’s commitment to take into account gender and diversity, for example by
targeting women-headed households, pregnant or lactating women, and men and boys made vulnerable by the
disaster and forced to migrate. These groups will be considered according to level of impact and more priority will be
given to those who have lost their houses. Other aspects to be considered include prevention of sexual and gender-
based violence, and protecting children in all programmes.

Relief and recovery programmes will take into account women’s and men’s distinct range of roles and responsibilities
while disability inclusion will be promoted for all interventions, recognizing that people with disabilities have the same
fundamental rights as other members of the community. In all, the most vulnerable groups will be involved in
community engagement and local decision-making processes.

Coordination and partnerships

The Government of Nepal has declared a state of emergency and appealed for humanitarian assistance internationally
and allocated a budget from its emergency fund for the relief operation. The broader response to the earthquake is
being led by the Government through its Central Natural Disaster Relief Committee (CNDRC). The Red Cross Red
Crescent Movement, UN agencies and non-governmental organizations (NGOs) are working in coordination with local
authorities.

16 camps are being established in the Kathmandu Valley for temporary settlement of the displaced people.
International Organization for Migration (IOM) is coordinating camp management. Following activation of Inter-Agency
Standing Committee (IASC) Clusters for this operation, NRCS and IFRC will participate in relevant cluster meetings.
The IFRC is deploying a shelter coordination team as part of its commitment as co-convenor of the Shelter Cluster.
The team will be exclusively dedicated to the task of cluster coordination, independent of NRCS/IFRC operations
although it will be resourced through funds mobilized via this plan of action and emergency appeal.

Some public companies such as Pokhara food pvt. Ltd have sent ready to eat food and Sree Satya Shahi have sent
50 tarpaulins to Gorkha district in coordination with NRCS Kaski district chapter.

.
Programme support services
· Human resources: Prior to the earthquake, IFRC had a small team in-country, led by the Country
Representative. Based on an increased demand for technical and coordination support required to deliver
on this plan over the 18-month implementation period, a structure will be put in place to guarantee an
effective and efficient technical coordination to NRCS so as to deliver the commitments under this operation.
As such, a portion of the budget is factoring the need for recruitment and/or deployment of regional,
international and national staff as well as mobilization of volunteers. As well as the extending the Head of
Delegation position for an additional 18 months, other international staff positions will include specializations
in operations management, Movement coordination, finance and administration, planning monitoring and
evaluation, PMER, communication, logistics, field operations, shelter, health, water and sanitation,
information management, ICT, gender and protection, and grants management.

· Logistics and supply chain: Two logistics ERUs are being deployed to support the arrival of supplies in-
country as well as to organize the supply chain for the required goods and distributions. Eventually,
professional logistics support will be provided by a logistics delegate, supported by the Zone logistics unit
(ZLU) in Kuala Lumpur. Logistics activities aim to effectively manage the supply chain, including
procurement, clearance, storage and forwarding to distributions sites in accordance to IFRC logistics
standards, processes and procedures ensuring full audit trail requirement also effectively supporting the fleet
to facilitate the movement of operational staff and supplies.

· Communications: IFRC communications activities have so far focused on media relations and generating
communications materials that support external positioning including regular stories and blogs on IFRC.org,
regular key messages and talking points, posts on social media platforms including Twitter and Facebook
and production of audio-visual materials. IFRC communications activities will continue to target international
audiences while also supporting the communications needs NRCS, in its domestic market. A proactive
media engagement strategy will be pursued with international news organizations in the region and
milestones in the operation will be identified to highlight the impact of the recovery efforts of the Red Cross
Red Crescent Movement towards building community resilience in Nepal.

· Information technology and telecommunications: To ensure that reliable information technology and
telecommunications services are available to the operation team, an IT telecoms ERU is being deployed.

· Information management: In this operation there will be an information management specialist as a


member of FACT. The IM focal person will support the collection of raw data in the field, consolidating
reliable data to input towards operational decision making, information products – such as maps and
infographics – and reporting. It is envisioned that the attention paid towards information management will
result in establishing a greater understanding of the operation among its audiences, both internal and
external.

· Beneficiary communication and accountability: NRCS has a long history of working and communicating
with affected communities taking into account gender and diversity sensitive needs. Measures will be put in
place to enhance community participation and improve programme accountability to beneficiaries in this
operation building on NRCS existing strengths. NRCS has an existing radio program that reaches 350,000
people each week and NRCS receives text or phone messages asking for advice or information so two-way
channels of communication like this will be built upon. Systems – including traditional — and processes that
capture feedback from beneficiaries and link them to respective programme sectors for analysis and follow
up will be enhanced. NRCS will disseminate important information and facilitate two-way communication,
so as to promote beneficiary participation and address grievances, with these processes being utilized within
all sectors.

· Security: The IFRC country office participates in regular Humanitarian Country Team meetings, convened
by the UN Resident Coordinator’s Office, and other forums in which national security is considered and
discussed. The NRCS works closely with communities and other actors in affected areas including National
Security Forces which will enable monitoring and adjustment of the security framework in order to minimize
potential risks. Overall, IFRC has a standard security framework, which will apply for IFRC-deployed
personnel. Given the number of ERUs deploying IFRC will consider a possible security delegate deployment
in the initial stages to support the HEOps and enable the establishment of effective security
coordination. This function can also support the identified need for Civil Military Coordination as required.

· Planning, monitoring, evaluation, and reporting (PMER): NRCS with the support of IFRC is responsible
for planning, monitoring and evaluation, and reporting (PMER) aspects of this operation. District chapters
carry out day-to-day monitoring of the operation in the field, while the headquarters, especially disaster
management department, supervises and monitors the activities of the district chapter in line with the EPoA.
NRCS PMER unit is responsible for drafting operation updates and pledge based reports to different donors
in close consultation with disaster management and other concerned departments. The unit was also
involved in the DMIS update, Information Bulletin and EPoA development.

· Administration and Finance: The IFRC, through the department of finance, provides the necessary
operational support for review, validation of budgets, bank transfers, and technical assistance to the National
Societies on procedures for justification of expenditures, including the review and validation of invoices.
