Background

UNDP Drylands Development Centre (DDC) is currently implementing the Building Drought Resilient Dryland Communities in the Horn of Africa (HoA) Project (hereafter the project) with the financial support from the Humanitarian Aid and Civil Protection Department of the European Commission (ECHO) under the framework of ECHO’s 2012 Drought Risk Reduction Action Plan (DRRAP). The overall objective of the project is to reduce drought disaster risks and improve human livelihoods in the drought-prone communities in the HoA by establishing an integrated enabling DRR planning and programming framework at national and regional levels in the region, effectively promoting local resilience building and vulnerability reduction. In particular it focuses on quantifying the results of development and humanitarian interventions for drought in the HoA region, inter alia Ethiopia, Kenya and Uganda.

The project is designed around three interlinked components:

Development of a Quantitative Impact Assessment Methodology: This component focuses on developing a rigorous conceptual framework and standardized methodology, i.e. Community Based Resilience Analysis (CoBRA), through which to identify and measure resilience characteristics at community level and examine the impact of community-based DRR and other interventions on local resilience building. To date, based on the extensive literature review, rounds of key resource persons' interviews, group discussions and the first pilot CoBRA field testing in Marsabit, Kenya, and Karamoja, Uganda, a draft CoBRA Conceptual Framework and Methodology has been developed (available for download at http://www.disasterriskreduction.net/drought-online/documents/detail/en/...). The methodology is required to be further trailed and rolled-out at scale both in the same areas for continuous monitoring (i.e., Marsabit for Kenya) and in the new locations (i.e., Turkana and Kajiado for Kenya) for further validation, verification and refining.

Capacity development to implement the CoBRA Methodology: This component aims at improving the capacity of local /national /regional disaster management institutions to plan, implement and monitor drought interventions against their contributions to long-term community resilience building, particularly for the most vulnerable populations. To date draft Implementation Guidelines for the CoBRA Methodology have been developed based on the results and lessons from the first pilot field testing in Kenya and Uganda. This guideline is expected to serve as the important reference document for practitioners and scholars who will participate in the future CoBRA field testing, by providing detailed procedures and instructions for the CoBRA application. Training sessions will be provided in the respective intervention countries prior to the field testing, which combine desktop exercise and field exercise.

Policy advocacy: This component intends to develop a policy brief based on the outputs and findings from the Result Areas 1 and 2 in support of the evidence-based advocacy efforts of the DRRAP partners in order to increase awareness of, and stimulate discussions among, a broad spectrum of DRR stakeholders on the roles and potentials of resilience-driven community DRR towards the achievement of the Governments' short-/long-term vulnerability reduction objectives as well as of broader sustainable development goals. The brief will address the issue of how to improve the policy, institutional and planning frameworks in the HoA to spur innovative and entrepreneurial capacities of drought-affected dryland communities so that they are better able to deliver higher and more sustainable results.
