A steady growth in climate-related disasters and their consequential costs has been observed for decades. We therefore support climate change mitigation and adaptation measures and help communities protect themselves against the effects of natural hazards. We thus work to ensure that the negative impacts of shifts and shocks are averted or minimised 1. Reduced social, economic and environmental impact of shocks and stresses resulting from natural disasters and/or climate change on vulnerable and marginalised people 1. Increased capacity to avert and limit the impact of natural disasters and climate change 2. The resilience of livelihoods is strengthened 3. Reduced ecological pressure and negative impact on the environment 1. Natural disaster and climate change threats, risks and vulnerabilities have been analysed and understood 2. Early warning and quick-response mechanisms have been put in place 3. Number of men and women trained or advised on prevention and preparedness against natural hazards 4.

3 FIELD OF ACTIVITY 3: Humanitarian Aid Relevance Objectively verifiable indicators of achievement Means of verification Monitoring General objective: To contribute to alleviating the suffering of vulnerable and marginalised people affected by natural or man-made humanitarian crises through emergency relief, rehabilitation and/or recovery, including reconstruction work Specific objective 3.1: To provide direct support to vulnerable and marginalised people affected by natural or man-made humanitarian crises by effectively responding first to their immediate needs and subsequently to their intermediary and long-term needs Result 3.1.1: Human and animal lives and livelihoods have been saved and the dignity of vulnerable and marginalised people has been upheld Result 3.1.2: Emergency relief is linked to development through rehabilitation and/or recovery, including reconstruction efforts for long-term solutions Increasing numbers of people are affected by humanitarian crises, to which East African and Horn of Africa countries are particularly prone. This is, on the one hand, due to the growing frequency of catastrophic events but above all to the increased exposure of people and property to threats, both natural and man-made. We therefore support victims of humanitarian crises: we do this by providing emergency relief but also by implementing reconstruction and rehabilitation projects. We take a clear development-oriented and crisispreventing approach in our humanitarian work by applying principles of Linking Relief, Rehabilitation and Development 1. The lives, livelihoods and dignity of vulnerable and marginalised people affected by natural or man-made humanitarian crises are restored and built back better 1. Relief activities have been quickly, effectively and professionally provided to vulnerable and marginalised people in acute need 2. A quick transition is made from relief to rehabilitation and/or recovery, including reconstruction 3. Effective coordination with local communities, authorities and other sector stakeholders has taken place 1. Number of men and women benefiting from emergency aid activities (e.g. water, non-food items, shelter, food aid, fodder, etc.) 2. Number of collective tents provided (e.g. for schooling, medical assistance, etc.) 3. Number of men and women benefiting directly from rehabilitation activities (e.g. reconstruction, livelihood recovery, etc.) 4. Number of male and female-headed households whose houses were rehabilitated or reconstructed 5. Number of public facilities rehabilitated or reconstructed (e.g. water sources, sanitation facilities, health facilities, schools, etc.) and the number of men and women, boys and girls benefiting from them statistics and reports on natural or man-made humanitarian crises, UNOCHA reports, baseline and survey reports Monitoring and evaluation reports, emergency relief, rehabilitation and/or recovery, including reconstruction impact reports from the Government of Kenya, UNOCHA and other stakeholders, meeting minutes Rapid assessments, coordination meeting minutes, progress and final project, training, and activity reports, pictures, case stories 1. Emergency relief and subsequent rehabilitation and/or Project proposals, progress and final recovery, including reconstruction projects are designed project, longterm planning documents with a long-term orientation towards development and ensure that processes of development are promoted, or at least not hindered 2. Wherever possible, emergency relief is integrated into existing programmes 3. Wherever possible, dependency is avoided and selfempowerment is promoted

4 Cross-Cutting Issues Relevance Objectively verifiable indicators of achievement Means of verification Monitoring 1. Capacity building Partnerships and collaboration with professionally sound, wellstructured and effective actors are an essential condition for the efficient and effective implementation of the Kenya Programme and its projects. In addition, engaging in 1. Partner assessments for all partners are available 2. The capacities of the partners and their respective organisations involved in project implementation are strengthened Workshop, conference and symposium reports, staff, partner training and review reports, staff annual performance appraisals,. All cross-cutting issues are to be duly incorporated and addressed in each project and will be monitored according to objectively networking and cooperation activities, bringing together 3. The organisation is consolidated and recognised as a project monitoring and evaluation verifiable indicators of achievement different actors, enables an exchange of knowledge and experiences which opens up new perspectives and possibilities for all actors. Both organisational development and networking lead to a broadening of the capabilities and opportunities for action. Moreover, the Kenya Programme is keen to systematically promote, train and support its staff and is equally keen to train the staff of partners competent civil-society actor in its fields of activities reports, audit reports included in project logframes 2. Gender Despite successes, the empowerment of women remains greatly constrained in all areas of life, ranging from the sociocultural, political to the economic. Poverty has a female face. We are therefore sensitive to gender issues and strongly believe in gender equity. We realise the risk of programmes that do not target both men and women equally and thus actively support equality between the sexes at different levels by calling for equal opportunities within our organisation as 1. Programme and project documents analyse the interests and needs of men and women 2. Programme and project data is sex-disaggregated 3. Partner organisations competently address gender issues 4. Men and women can preserve their physical and psychological integrity 5. Men and women have the same legal rights well as those of our partners by raising awareness among men 6. Men and women have equal powers of participation, about the issue of gender equality and endeavouring to make them assume responsibility for it and by calling for equal participation by both men and women in programmes and decision-making representation and decision-making 7. Men and women have equal access to, and equal control over, resources and information 8. Men and women have equal opportunities for personal development and shaping their own lives 3. Conflict-sensitivity Due to the demographic, socio-cultural, political and economic complexity of the contexts we operate in, a conflict-sensitive approach must be adopted in order to ensure that our activities do not increase the risk of conflicts, particularly violent conflicts. Rather, we strive to reduce or maintain tensions by means of applying Do-No-Harm principles 4. Environmental sustainability Population growth and corresponding increase in consumption, development and the effects of climate change are accelerating environmental impacts through increased waste and pollution, loss of biodiversity and greater pressure on limited natural resources. Many resources are being consumed faster than they can be renewed, or are finite. We are therefore committed to promote environmental sustainability by ensuring that natural resources such as air, water, soil, animals and plants are preserved in their substance and diversity, so that they will be available to future generations and so that they are enabled to realise their freedoms and development opportunities 1. The Do-No-Harm concept was appropriately applied 2. The complex interactions between poverty, justice, resource allocation and conflict in our programmes and projects are analysed and understood 3. Adequate conflict-sensitive measures aimed at preventing and mitigating the consequences of tensions are incorporated in our work 1. Natural resources such as water, soil or forests are gradually used more sustainably managed and are not overexploited 2. Reduction in environmental pollution 3. Reduction in the emission of greenhouse gases through the promotion of renewable energy and methods for the efficient use of energy Gender analysis and gender impact reports, project monitoring and evaluation reports, all of which include sex-disaggregated data on beneficiaries, participants, project activities and staff of the organisation as well as partners, workshop and training reports Conflict analysis and conflict impact reports, project monitoring and evaluation reports, workshop and training reports Environmental analysis and environmental impact reports, project monitoring and evaluation reports, workshop and training reports

5 Synergies, learning and innovation Relevance Objectively verifiable indicators of achievement Means of verification Monitoring 1. Synergies in the above fields of activities and cross-cutting issues are systematically sought and exploited within Kenya, with our programmes in the region and the Head Office 2. Increased institutional knowledge, specifically on the following tropics: - Climate change - Disaster risk reduction - Drought cycle management - Working with pastoralist communities - LRRD and the contiguum approach - Our cross-cutting issues Synergies will actively be sought and exploited in Kenya and the East/Horn of Africa region. Among other things, synergies will lead to the improvement of our programmes in terms of the impact of our aid; they promote thematic coherence and consistency, the use of uniform approaches, quality standards and mainstreaming of key issues. Refer also to the Nairobi Regional Liaison Office Strategy Learning is an overarching goal. We strive to improve our overall knowledge, experience and skills and practically applying these. The Kenya programme seeks in particular to gain institutional expertise on topics relevant to its above fields of activities and cross-cutting issues. See also cross-cutting issue 1, capacity building and refer to the Nairobi Office Strategy 3. Innovative solutions The rapid changes occurring in our fields of activity demand high levels of responsiveness and adaptability, continuous improvements and further development of the organisation 1. Synergies are systematically exploited and are evident in projects in Kenya and in the region 2. Synergies are developed through cooperation with external stakeholders and by interacting with governing entities 3. Refer to the Nairobi Regional Liaison Office Strategy 1. The link to the scientific discourse and the developments in the international cooperation community is ensured 2. The exchange of experiences and knowledge among practitioners is promoted 3. The knowledge and experiences gained are captured and made accessible for international cooperation practitioners 1. Our entrepreneurial and innovative skills are strengthened through targeted personnel training and recruitment 2. Innovative solutions to old and existing problems as well as to new developments are applied Projects, evaluation reports, crosscountry programme exchange reports, regional workshop meetings, other meetings minutes, partnership and cooperation agreements Training, workshop, conference and symposium reports, case studies, lessons learned, project documents, meeting minutes, correspondence Training, workshop, conference and symposium reports, case studies, lessons learned, project documents, meeting minutes, written correspondence Management objectives Relevance Objectively verifiable indicators of achievement Means of verification Monitoring 1. Professionalism, efficiency and effectiveness We continuously assess structures and processes for efficiency and effectiveness, as well as transparency and accountability, and optimise these wherever possible. Refer also to the Nairobi Regional Liaison Office Strategy, to all aspects of which we subscribe to and strive to contribute 1. The Kenya Programme is professionally managed and structure and processes, including financial processes, are optimised for maximum efficiency and effectiveness as well as transparency and accountability Management meetings minutes, revised programme documents and actions plans, internal control and audit reports, evaluations 2. Financial viability towards We ensure achieving the financial viability of the Kenya Programme by maintaining an appropriate financial turnover from diverse institutional donors ############################################# Project cooperation agreements, analysis of source of funding, audit reports, annual programme budgets and financial reports, written correspondence 3. Partnerships and networks We establish and maintain diverse effective partnerships and networks with institutional donors, the Caritas network, implementing partners, local communities, authorities, coordination mechanisms and other relevant sector stakeholders ############################################# Joint projects and activities, coordination and other meeting minutes, written correspondence, monthly Caritas regional director's lunches 4. Advocacy We carry out advocacy work related to our fields of activity and cross-cutting issues, namely in the locations of our geographic focus and on behalf of our target groups, with relevant donors, authorities and other stakeholders 1. Issues of public concern in our areas of predilection are raised 2. An active role is played in the initiation, development, implementation and dissemination of relevant policies 5. Integrated safety and security management Real safety and security risks exist in the contexts of our areas 1. Safety and security is properly integrated in our of operation. These risks must be adequately managed: they programmes should be mitigated and our exposure to them should be reduced in as far as possible and we must be prepared to adequately respond to any security incident 6. Geographic concentration We gradually concentrate our projects and activities geographically in order to achieve the greatest possible impacts in the longer-term and in order to increase operational efficiency 7. Responsiveness and adaptability The dynamic, emergency prone and continuously changing environment in which we operate requires us to remain flexible and to be able to adapt to our programmes quickly to respond to new needs and challenges 1. The specific target locations within our target Counties are reduced and the number of Counties we operate in is possibly reduced as well Policies, statements, meeting minutes, workshop reports, policy documents, written correspondence Kenya security plan, staff training certificates, proof of participation in the RedR security management pilot project, security reports, meeting minutes Project evaluation reports, Kenya Programme annual reports 1. New needs have been appropriately responded to Workshop reports, meeting minutes, written correspondence, internal review reports
