Summary: This operations update extends the operation timeframe by an additional 2 months with an additional budget allocation of CHF 128,832 to;
Reinforce public outreach / awareness-raising activities in the six localities, which were included in the EPoA (Bibemi, Figuil, Guider, Mayo-Oulo, Pitoa, and Touboro), in an effort to improve the populations’ sanitation and hygiene practices and thus combat the cholera epidemic in 12 districts (six additional districts) of the North Region of Cameroon
Extend these activities into the six localities where new cases have been reported (Garoua I, Garoua II, Gashiga, Golombé, Rey Bouba and Tcholiré).
The RDRT will provide support to both the MDRCM018 and MDRCM020 operations, which are being implemented concurrently in the Far North and North regions of Cameroon. In total therefore, the RDRT will be deployed for 5 months, 2 months are budgeted against MDRCM018 and 3 months are budgeted against MDRCM020 since this operation closes a month later.
By February 2015, it is expected therefore that the DREF operation will have assisted an additional 26,000 people, increasing the target population to 52,380 across the 12 localities. The DREF operation will end on 5 February 2015, and a final report will be made available by 5 April, 2015 (Three months after the end of the operation).
On 8 September 2014, the IFRC allocated CHF 179,304 from the Disaster Relief & Emergency Fund (DREF) to support the CRC response to the needs of the flood affected population as well as those affected by the Cholera epidemic over a period of three months.
The DREF operation was intended to support about 10 per cent (26,380 persons) of the affected population of 255,214 inhabitants in the six affected localities of Bibemi, Figuil, Guider, Mayo-Oulo, Pitoa, and Touboro. To date, over 75 per cent of the activities planned have been implemented.
