Result / Programme Outcome

(1803)

  1. 400 community members received cash for work assistance to support livelihood recovery through latrines and physical accessibility construction works as well as through their involvement in community disaster preparedness and resilience training and outreach 3.1. Community-based committee for disaster preparedness and resilience strengthened in 20 villages 3.2. 10.000 community members receiving outreach on WASH, disaster preparedness and resilience building 3.3. 300 primary school teachers skilled to conduct disaster preparedness learning in their schools and equipped media to support the learning sessions 3.4. 27,000 students are able to practice disaster preparedness knowledge and skills through school evacuation drill 4.1. 5 local disabled people organisations (DPOs) with at least 20 personnel capacitated to support the project and government in delivering inclusive disaster preparedness and resilience building- related activities within early recovery context at community and school settings 4.2. 30 government and non-government stakeholder representatives working on recovery for Central Sulawesi received relevant data and information to feed their recovery plan and works (1804)
  2. Core Humanitarian Standard (CHS) The review shows that the project satisfactorily performs appropriate and relevant humanitarian responses. Whereas water and sanitation become the most priority needs of the IDPs beside food and shelter, the project endorses water provision through the SkyHydrant installation where people can drink instantly, and the accessible latrines. The project is also likely to succeed in undertaking humanitarian response based on communication, participation and feedback. The responses are considered effective and timely, strengthen local capacities and avoid negative effects, and are coordinated and complementary. However the project’s beneficiaries are aware of their space to submit complaints, but since they have no reason to complain yet, the team is unable to review the effectiveness of the project's complaint mechanism. The project provides a hotline service number but is likely not recognized widely.
  3. Humanitarian Inclusion Standard (HIS) The community (project’s beneficiaries) consider that the project has given safe and equitable access to older people and people with disabilities, as well they are not negatively affected, are more prepared and resilient, and are less at risk. However, as any of the respondents are not the older people and people with disabilities, they are unsure whether the project ensures the older people and people with disabilities know their rights and entitlements, and participate in decisions that affect their lives.
  4. Local organizations (Pokja OPDis Pasigala) performance The Pokja Pasigala’s staffs positively responds that the project has significantly improved their personal capacity and self-confidence. They think the project is well managed and in fact support them to well perform in the day-to-day implementation of activities. The project is considered to effectively achieve its objectives, doing a relief service with a special attention to the most-at-risk people. However, its effectiveness to their organization is still arguing given the fact that they are not originally addressing issues as the project does.
