Gaza Risk Reduction and Mitigation (GRRAM)
Project overview
Catholic Relief Services received funding to create a viable model for designing and implementing DRR projects in complex humanitarian emergencies that occur in urban, conflict-prone areas with non-state actors.
Project solution
This project offers [specific solution or intervention] to tackle [challenge]. By implementing [strategies, tools, or innovations], the project aims to achieve [desired outcomes]. The approach is designed to [specific actions or methods] to bring about meaningful change in [community, region, or issue area].
Expected outcomes
This project aims to achieve [specific outcomes], such as [measurable results, improvements, or changes]. The expected impact includes [benefits to the target community, advancements in research or innovation, or long-term effects]. By the end of the project, we anticipate [specific changes or milestones] that will contribute to [broader goals or objectives].
WHAT IS THE HUMANITARIAN NEED?
- Limited experience of DRR in complex humanitarian emergencies that occur in urban, conflict-prone areas with non-state actors
- No guidelines for designing and implementing DRR projects in such contexts
- Little capacity to adequately manage disasters in Gaza
WHAT IS THE INNOVATIVE SOLUTION?
The aim of this project is to create a viable model for designing and implementing DRR projects in complex humanitarian emergencies that occur in urban, conflict-prone areas with non-state actors. Plus enhancing DRR learning and practice to reflect different contexts.
WHAT ARE THE EXPECTED OUTCOMES?
- Reduce disaster risk at the point where three major variables intersect: urban-settings, conflict-prone areas, and non-state actors
- Develop, implement and diffuse a “How-To-Guide on DRR Programming in Urban, Conflict-Prone Areas with Non-State Actors”
- Hazard mapping, vulnerability and capacity assessments (VCA), disaster risk reduction planning, and implementation of DRR initiatives in Gaza
