The Political Economy of Shock-Responsive Social Protection: Analysis from Malawi

Using social assistance systems to address acute needs arising from wide-scale shocks – commonly known as ‘shock-responsive social protection’ (SRSP) – raises significant political economy questions. Previously, acute needs caused by disasters across sub-Saharan Africa have primarily been met by humanitarian actors alone. SRSP disrupts the status quo by reducing humanitarian actors’ access to and control over humanitarian funding. This raises significant political questions; likewise, the introduction by SRSP of greater accountability and transparency into the implementation of humanitarian responses. This article addresses a current gap in the literature: the politics of SRSP. Referencing the concept of political settlements, the article asks what explains the evolution of SRSP in Malawi by examining the actions of domestic and international actors. It finds that there is scant evidence of national ownership of SRSP and that lack of consensus among international actors is a key obstacle to the concept becoming embedded within the political settlement.

Politicization of Humanitarian Aid Allocations by Global Donors and Implications on Selected Non-Governmental Organisations’ Performance in Nigeria

Organisations that focus on humanitarian concerns usually rely on voluntary donations and largesse from multiple ends, without which their operations cannot be implemented. The premise of the paper was established on the fact that humanitarian aid is ultimately complemented by humanitarian funding, which is in itself reliant on donors from multiple ends. As a result of this, it has become difficult to divorce the political nature of the influence of donors’ interests in the allocation and focus of the humanitarian funding offered. This has resulted in a dilemma. The study focused on the issue of the politicization of humanitarian funding and how it affects the delivery of humanitarian aid in selected non-governmental organisations in Nigeria. Using a qualitative approach, 10 participants, working with different NGOs in Nigeria and occupying different positions, were recruited to derive data on the topic. Semi-structured interviews were utilised. The data obtained were analysed via thematic analysis to decode the data and derive recurrent themes from it. The results of the study showed that there is a consensus among the participants on the virtually inevitable role of politics in the acquisition and subsequent distribution of humanitarian funding to address issues related to conflicts and disasters among diverse communities across Nigeria. This often negates the principle of independence and autonomy that NGOs should work by where, in most cases, the acceptance of humanitarian funding from donors often leaves their hands tied. The study offered recommendations along the lines of creating mechanisms of transparency and accountability from both donors and recipient NGOs, having local NGOs seek support from their communities to be more involved in humanitarian missions, and heightened collaboration between humanitarian actors to make funding easier, more effective, and less politicized.

Community Empowerment Through Environmental Care and Disaster Relief Programs at Zakat House in Bintaro, Tanggerang Selatan

<p>In Islam, zakat is an act of worship to purify, cleanse the heart, for Allah SWT. In Indonesia, there is an institution, namely Rumah Zakat, an institution that helps community empowerment. Rumah Zakat is a national amil zakat institution belonging to the people of Indonesia which manages zakat, infaq, alms, and other humanitarian funds through a series of integrated programs in the fields of education, health, economy and the environment, to create happiness for people in need. Of the many programs in certain fields, we focus on the disaster sector. In the field of disaster, it is very interesting for us to discuss, because the country of Indonesia experiences disasters almost every year, especially floods, landslides, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, etc. And the many natural disasters that occurred caused Indonesia to lose hundreds of thousands of lives. The most important thing is that this zakat house has a form program in it to develop the community and help the community. With this program, the institution donates funds in the form of money or goods to the people affected by the disaster. As a form of community empowerment, we as researchers conducted research on the zakat house. The forms of these programs include emergency response programs, pre-disaster programs, community programs that receive clean water, and programs such as the community obtaining plant seeds for reforestation. This study aims to find out what forms of programs are carried out by zakat houses for people affected by floods. We as researchers use qualitative research. The method we use is like observation through the media. With this activity, researchers want to know the work process of the program and what impact it will have on the community. And in the results we found that the community was happy with the participation of an institution that was responsible for managing the disaster that occurred. We hope as writers that this institution will increase in the process of community empowerment on the basis of environmental disaster.</p>

Project Management Practices and Implementation of Somali Humanitarian Fund Projects by Local Non-Governmental Organizations in Mogadishu, Somalia

The effective management and control of a project are fundamental to its success. In the context of intricate projects, such as those associated with the Somali Humanitarian Fund (SHF), strict adherence to a defined scope, schedule, and budget is crucial to attaining the desired outcomes. Humanitarian and Development (SHF) projects carried out by local NGOs in Mogadishu, Somalia. The specific goals of the study included scrutinizing the role of communication in SHF project performance, evaluating the impact of planning on project success, assessing the effects of financing on project performance, and determining the importance of monitoring and evaluation in the implementation of SHF projects. The study was grounded in the Theory of Change, Management by Objective Theory, Adaptive Structuration Theory, and the Theory of Constraints. Employing a descriptive survey design, the research involved a population of 50 SHF projects. Data collection utilized a semi-structured questionnaire, and the analysis was conducted using SPSS, with findings presented through mean scores, standard deviation, and percentages. The findings highlight the critical role of effective communication, comprehensive planning, adequate financing, and robust monitoring and evaluation (M&E) mechanisms in project success. Communication challenges were identified as hindrances to timely project completion, emphasizing the need for improved communication channels and strategies. Planning was deemed essential, but the recognition of inadequate planning as a challenge suggests a need for capacity building and best practice adoption. Financial support was seen as crucial, but there's room for improved assessment by financiers to ensure transparency. M&E processes were acknowledged as integral, yet areas like demonstrating corrective actions and aligning deliverables with objectives need attention for enhanced effectiveness and accountability. Recommendations include enhancing communication channels, bolstering planning capacities, improving financial management practices, and institutionalizing M&E processes. These steps aim to mitigate challenges, optimize resource utilization, and maximize the impact of SHF projects on vulnerable populations in Mogadishu.

Abstract PO5-10-11: BREAST CANCER DIAGNOSIS AND TREATMENT AMONG DISPLACED AND HOST POPULATIONS IN NORTH-WEST SYRIA

Abstract INTRODUCTION: The protracted Syrian conflict has forcibly displaced more than half the pre-conflict population of 22 million people with 6.7 million IDPs (internally displaced people.) 80% of IDPs are women and children. Given a lack of humanitarian funding for oncology services, NGOs like the Syrian-American Medical Society (SAMS), have used private funding to establish oncology services. We sought to explore differences in breast cancer diagnosis and treatment among IDPs and host populations in SAMS oncology centre in Idlib governorate. METHODS: Charts of women seen diagnosed with breast cancer at the SAMS Oncology Centre in Idlib governorate between March 2018 and February 2021 were reviewed. Clinicopathologic data was extracted, and non-parametric statistical analyses were performed to compare citizens vs. those who were displaced. RESULTS: Data for 188 patients were available; for 108/188 (57%) details of IDP versus host status was available. 61/108 (56%) were IDPs, 47 (44%) were host. The median age at diagnosis was similar between citizens and those who were displaced. Further, the clinicopathologic features and treatment between these two groups were similar. The time between onset of symptoms and diagnosis was imilar between the host population and IDPs (median 125.5 days vs. 77 days, respectfully, p=0.255), although there was a trend towards a shorter time from diagnosis to initiation of treatment for IDPs (median 19 days vs. 14 days, p=0.051). CONCLUSION: From this cohort study, it is notable that there were no significant differences in the tumor size, node positivity or grade at diagnosis. Further, although IDPs are usually considered to have more challenging access to healthcare services compared to host populations, it was notable that there was no significant difference between the time of onset of symptoms to diagnosis between the two groups, and a trend towards a shorter time to treatment. Although this may be related to the relatively small sample size, it may also reflect other commitments of host populations (e.g., employment) that may delay care, or the work of humanitarian organizations in reaching displaced populations. Further, given that in northwest Syria, more than 65% of the 4-4.6 million people in the area are IDPs, access to care between the two groups may be similar. Further work is required to explore this.

Effective partnership and in-country resource mobilization in Sudan for cVDPV2 outbreak response amid multiple emergencies in 2020-2021.

During 2020 and immediately prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, Sudan was experiencing multiple emergencies including violence, seasonal flooding, and vector-borne disease outbreaks. After more than ten years since its last case of wild poliovirus, Sudan declared a circulating vaccine-derived poliovirus type 2 (cVDPV2) outbreak on 9 August 2020. cVDPV2 outbreak response data and programme documents of the Federal Ministry of Health and WHO were reviewed. Surveillance data was verified through WHO-recommended procedures for detecting and characterizing polioviruses from stool and sewage samples collected from acute flaccid paralysis (AFP) cases and the environment. This outbreak in Sudan led to a total of 58 confirmed cases of cVDPV2 from 15 of the 18 states. Two nationwide vaccination campaigns were held to increase immunity of children under-five against poliovirus type 2. Funding challenges were overcome by intense additional resource mobilization from in-country sources. The funding gap was bridged from domestic resources (49%) sourced through GPEI partners, and in-country humanitarian funding mechanisms. During an outbreak response and challenge of funding shortfall, mobilizing in-country resources is possible through coordinated approaches, regular communication with partners, disaggregation of needs, and matching in-kind and financial support to fill gaps. A cVDPV2 outbreak requires a fast, resourced, and quality response to stop virus circulation.

Qualitative perspectives of middle and high skilled workers on humanitarian crowdfunding for poverty reduction in selected organization of Islamic cooperation

Crowd humanitarian fund, otherwise termed as mutual fund, has overwhelmingly been discussed by many scholars and researchers in western countries. There is obscurity in existing literature in Islamic countries with respect to the interconnectedness between various Islamic financial concepts within the Islamic legal framework and the conceptualization of crowd humanitarian funds. The primary objective of this paper is to address this obscurity by investigating the perspectives of middle- and high-skilled workers among members of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) with respect to the crowd humanitarian fund. Hence, the central research question (CRQ) was formulated as follows: How do the middle and high-skilled workers perceive the generation of crowd-humanitarian funds for the purpose of helping the less privileged citizens in Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) countries? The qualitative method was used as the methodology of the study. In order to collect data for the study, an open-ended interview was employed, and a total of 22 participants were interviewed. Three major themes were generated from the interview, namely: An overview of crowd humanitarian funds, categories of less privileged people in OIC countries, and the use of humanitarian funds for poverty reduction. The findings indicated that the traditional method of collecting funds from crowds is to assist with any humanitarian issue is still applicable in many Muslim countries. In addition, the unity in contributing to the humanitarian fund from the crowd, that is, common practice in Muslims’ culture is what Western society terms as crowdfunding. It is further revealed that there are different categories of people, such as the poor, the needy, and people with low incomes, who can benefit from crowdfunding, especially by using it for investment purposes. In addition, crowdfunding is considered an essential monetary relief to less fortunate individuals or communities in order to have a sustainable life. It can also be used for provision of social amenities such as food, shelters, clothes, hospitals, schools, and job opportunities.

Using the household hunger scale to improve analysis and classification of severe food insecurity in famine-risk conditions: Evidence from three countries

The currently accepted means of categorizing household food insecurity and identifying famine or famine risk is through Integrated Food Security Phase Classification (IPC) analysis. IPC guidelines set criteria for the measurement and determination of famine, but recent analyses in famine-risk countries have faced several challenges. Commonly used indicators capture different aspects of food security and often produce very divergent estimates of the prevalence of food insecurity. This led to the usage of the Household Hunger Scale (HHS) as the presumed “anchor” indicator for IPC acute food insecurity analysis, with all other indicators of food consumption calibrated to the HHS. But because there was no gold standard, only an “anchor,” this presumption had never been tested. Further, given that HHS was the only indicator that could specify the difference between the two most severe categories of IPC Phase Classification (Phase 4 “Emergency” and Phase 5 “Famine”), analysis of food insecurity at the extreme end of the IPC scale relies heavily on HHS, rather than the standard panoply of indicators used for acute food insecurity analysis at lesser levels of severity. This study sought to test how well HHS differentiates between IPC Phase 4 and Phase 5 and to investigate the validity of the usage of HHS as the “anchor” indicator across the spectrum of IPC analysis. Data was collected in seven different severely food-insecure areas of South Sudan, Kenya, and Somalia. The findings show that, overall, the HHS performs reasonably well as an “anchor indicator” across the IPC scale and is able to differentiate the majority of cases in Phases 4 and 5 but tends to over-classify (over-estimate the severity of food insecurity at the household level)—especially at the lower end of the IPC scale. At the high end of the scale, these results indicate that HHS is good at flagging highly food-insecure households but may require additional information to rigorously differentiate households in Phase 4 from those in Phase 5. The study identified ways to improve classification by HHS by some simple additional questions or observations to differentiate between Phase 4 and Phase 5. In an era of extreme scarcity of humanitarian funding, this has substantial implications for resource allocation and humanitarian prioritization.

Ensuring the constitutional right to housing of internally displaced persons in Ukraine and countries that have experienced armed conflicts: comparative legal characteristics

The article is devoted to the analysis of the constitutional right to housing and its provision to internally displaced persons in Ukraine and countries that have experienced armed conflicts (using the example of Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia and Georgia).
 The article analyzes the content of the constitutional right to housing and its implementation in Ukraine. An analysis of the main regulatory legal acts is presented, according to which the procedure for implementing and ensuring this right of internally displaced persons is carried out. The system of such documents consists of: the Constitution of Ukraine; Law of Ukraine "On Ensuring the Rights and Freedoms of Internally Displaced Persons"; Housing Code of Ukraine; The procedure for the formation of housing funds intended for temporary residence, accounting and provision of such housing for temporary residence of internally displaced persons; The procedure and conditions for providing subvention from the state budget to local budgets for the purchase, construction of housing for the purpose of transfer for temporary residence of internally displaced persons and the Procedure for providing housing purchased by the State Youth Housing Department at the expense of humanitarian and other aid funds for temporary residence of affected persons.
 Particular attention in the work is given to the analysis of the definition of internally displaced persons under the legislation of Ukraine and the countries whose practices are under consideration. It is argued that all the studied definitions justify the reason for the forced abandonment of a person's permanent place of residence and, as a general rule, such relocation occurs as a result of an armed conflict, due to military danger, a threat to the life of a person or a member of his family. The legal status of internally displaced persons in the countries under consideration is defined in relevant legal documents, such as: Law on Refugees from Bosnia and Herzegovina and Displaced Persons in Bosnia and Herzegovina; The Law on the Status of Displaced Persons and Refugees in the Republic of Croatia and the Law of Georgia on Internally Displaced Persons - Persecuted from the Occupied Territories of Georgia.
 It is argued that the widespread practice of ensuring the housing rights of internally displaced persons is the provision of temporary housing and the construction of a new one, attracting funds from international funds.

Criminal liability for humanitarian aid embezzlement during war: The case of Ukraine

The aim of the article was to reveal the content of the controversial elements of the illegal use of humanitarian aid, provided for in Article 201-2 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine; to clarify the validity of the introduction of this prohibition and, moreover, to discuss its impact on law enforcement. All of which in order to be able to determine the prospects for the development of criminal law in the field. Several research methods have been used in the article, such as: comparative, systemic-structural and legal-formal. Referring to the appropriate methodological basis has made it possible to delve into the issues of criminal liability for embezzlement of humanitarian aid funds in Ukraine. Based on the results of the comparative analysis, it has been noted that there are no special provisions on appropriation and embezzlement of humanitarian aid items in the legislation of certain European states. As a conclusion it has been argued that the introduction of article 201-2 in the Criminal Code, is an example of excessive criminalization because: in this case, the act, which is inherent in the social harmfulness necessary for criminalization, did not require criminalization, since criminal liability for it has already existed and is broadly typified in the law.

Exploring factors influencing the selection of primary health care delivery models in conflict-affected settings of North West and South West regions of Cameroon and North-East Nigeria: A study protocol.

In conflict-affected settings, access to health care for displaced populations is constrained by barriers including geographical, cultural, communication, logistical, financial and insecurity. A six year humanitarian crises in the North West and South West regions of Cameroon has caused 27% of health facilities to be non-functional. The eleven year crisis in North-East Nigeria, has caused the closure of 26% of health facilities. These closure of health facilities and population displacement led to health care delivery using humanitarian funding by multiple different agencies. However, there is a paucity of evidence on the selection and design of the primary health care delivery models used in humanitarian settings. To ensure efficient use of resources and quality of services, model of care selection should be evidence based and informed by the specific humanitarian context. This research protocol aims to explore how primary health care models are selected by humanitarian organizations. We will conduct a cross sectional quantitative survey to map the range of primary health care delivery models used by humanitarian organisations in Cameroon and Nigeria. Using in-depth interviews and focus group discussions with staff from humanitarian organizations and internally displaced persons, we will explore the factors influencing the selection of primary health care models in these settings and determine the coverage and gaps in services across the different primary health care models. Quantitative data will be analysed in a descriptive manner and qualitative data will be analysed thematically. Different models of care have been reported to be used by humanitarian organisations in conflict-affected settings, yet evidence on how different models are selected is lacking. A detailed understanding of the rationale for selection, the design and quality considerations of the strategies used to deliver health care will be obtained using a survey, in-depth interviews and focus group discussions.

The politics of Catholic humanitarian aid: missionaries and American relief in Algeria (1942–47)

Abstract This article examines the politics of the Catholic American aid delivered in French-controlled Algeria between 1942 and 1947. Using the archives of the White Fathers (Missionnaires d’Afrique), the Archives Nationales d’Outre Mer and the archives of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops at the Catholic University of America in Washington this article traces how humanitarian relief funds sent in support of missionaries in Algeria altered their status in the colonial order. The article focuses on the transformative aspects of this American intervention in a complex colonial environment. It argues that the American Catholic intervention, with its focus on indigenous patients rather than colonial settlers, renewed older and broader provisions of missionary relief in Algeria. American aid funded missionary work and resourced social work and later aligned Catholic relief with anti-communist activities in France.

Peculiarities of the National Agency for the Prevention of Corruption Activities under Martial Law

In the article, the authors identified and analyzed the main features of the activities of the National Agency for the Prevention of Corruption under martial law.
 The authors proved that after the full-scale invasion of Russia, the National Agency for the Prevention of Corruption, as well as most state bodies, has adapted to the changes in the state and society. The authors note that a wide range of powers and rights of the National Agency for the Prevention of Corruption are fixed at the legislative level. In the scientific article, the authors have conditionally divide the entire set of rights and powers of the National Agency for the Prevention of Corruption into types “depending on the scope of their implementation or depending on the function within they are carried out”. It has been emphasized that in the conditions of martial law, the National Agency for the Prevention of Corruption continued to fulfill its powers, using the rights enshrined in Article 12 of the Law of Ukraine “On Prevention of Corruption”. However, taking into account the military and political situation that has led to the emergence of new social relations or the change of existing ones (crossing the border by men of military age under martial law, the activities of charitable and humanitarian funds, etc.), the content of the powers of the National Agency for the Prevention of Corruption has been transformed to a certain extent. In the conditions of martial law, despite the partial temporary suspension of certain functions, the National Agency for the Prevention of Corruption not only continues to fulfill its mandate, but also redistributes resources for wartime needs. It has been proven that the essence of the activity of the National Agency for the Prevention of Corruption in the conditions of martial law has remained unchanged, ensuring the formation and implementation of the state anti-corruption policy, the formation of rules for the prevention of corruption and the improvement of the transparency of the public sector.
