Pakistan floods: One year on


In July 2010, heavy monsoon rains triggered the worst floods to hit Pakistan in modern history, leaving a fifth of the country under water and displacing millions. Plan ramped up its local operations to provide emergency relief for a quarter of a million people, and will reach out to provide recovery and rehabilitation support to over 1 million people in the worst affected areas.

One year later, Plan is working with a consortium of local organisations to help those affected, especially children, recover and rebuild their communities through a variety of projects.

Donors around the world entrusted Plan with US $24.5 million to help those affected by the floods. As of May 31, 2011 Plan has invested US $15.1 million to help flood survivors recover and rebuild their communities. The remaining funds will continue to support flood-affected families and their communities over the coming months and years.

In the immediate wake of the floods, Plan provided emergency short-term food, water and shelter, as well as health and sanitation training and facilities.

Children are affected by natural disasters in complex, far-reaching ways, and their wellbeing is key to communities’ long-term recovery. To help the children process the tragedy and recover, Plan and local partners set up child-friendly spaces where they can play, share and talk freely.

Executive Summary

Plan International July 2011

Pakistan Floods: One Year On

The floods hit the most vulnerable the hardest, and Plan is now focussing on longer-term projects to better prepare communities to face natural disasters in the future.

Plan will continue to work with local partners to help reopen 390 schools, to roll out 23 cash-for-work schemes, and to undertake other long-term rehabilitation and disaster preparedness initiatives.

Where we’re workingPlan has been working in the worst-hit parts in the south and east of the country, home to those affected by the floods.

In the province of Sindh, in the south-east, our efforts have been concentrated in Ghotki, Khairpur, and Thatta, three of the province’s 23 districts.

In the eastern province of Punjab, Plan’s projects are in the districts of Layyah, Muzaffargarh, and Rajanpur, the worst affected of the province’s 36 districts.

Supporting flood survivors • The first step was the immediate provision of shelter, clean and safe drinking water, cooked food and dry rations to over a quarter of a million people.

• In the weeks following the floods, Plan and partners conducted awareness-raising campaigns on health and hygiene, child protection and livestock management.

• In the recovery and rehabilitation phase Plan has launched or is establishing: - A Getting Children Back to School project in three flood-affected districts of southern Punjab, targeting 390 damaged primary schools and 58,000 children

- Early childhood care and development (ECCD) for 5,000 children aged 3-5 years

- Provision of school bags, books, uniforms and stationery for 25,000 children who had to interrupt their schooling because of supply shortages

- 23 cash-for-work schemes, providing labourers with much-needed income in return for rebuilding damaged infrastructure

Plan’s partnersPlan’s efforts to support flood survivors to date have only been made possible by collaboration with the Indus Consortium of local aid organisations, consisting of the Rural Development Policy Institute, which also played the role of lead organisation, the Doaba Foundation, Help Foundation and Laar Humanitarian Development Programme.

Specific programme support for Plan’s education in emergencies efforts was provided by: Doaba Foundation, Help Foundation, Mountain Institute for Educational Development (MIED), Sudhar, Rasti and Children’s Global Network (CGN).

Support for Plan’s rural sanitation and hygiene efforts is being provided by: Punjab Rural Support Programme (PRSP), Integrated Rural Sanitation Program (IRSP), Agha Khan Rural Support Program (AKRSP), National Rural Support Program (NRSP), and Islamic Relief.

Key Achievements

Emergency aidThe floods hit the most vulnerable the hardest, with many households losing their bedding, clothes, cooking utensils, food grains and crops, and livestock. With survival the first priority, Plan provided emergency food and shelter to those in the hardest-hit areas.

More than a quarter of a million people received 2 hot meals a day for about 10 to 12 days, while tens of thousands also received communal tents, tarpaulins or other shelter material.

In addition, Plan distributed dry rations including rice, sugar, dal, and cooking oil to around 18,000 families, and the children of 29,685 families were also provided with high energy biscuits.

Ensuring Child ProtectionChildren are particularly vulnerable to the impact of any crisis which displaces large numbers of people. Plan supported projects to help those distressed by the floods, and took measures to address the increased risk of abuse, violence and neglect facing displaced children.

Plan set up 301 child-friendly spaces where 20,387 children could learn, play, and feel safe. Psychosocial support sessions – in essence emotional first aid – were also provided to children experiencing nightmares and distress caused by the disaster.

To raise awareness among the communities of the importance of child protection, Plan conducted 417 sessions with the total participation of 19,555 people. Banners to increase awareness of child protection issues were also developed and displayed.

Getting Children Back to School The flood damaged or destroyed thousands of schools across the country, including many in the areas where Plan conducted flood relief work. Getting these back up and running is key to the children’s welfare, and to the communities’ long-term rehabilitation and development.

Plan has launched a project to reopen 390 primary schools in the three districts of southern Punjab, to welcome 58,000 children. The programme addresses water and sanitation, shelter, solar energy, education, health and hygiene, and teacher training, as well as disaster risk reduction, child protection and attention to psychosocial issues.

Of those children, 58,000 are to be provided with school bags, books, uniforms and stationery by Plan, which is also distributing play and sports equipment to the schools.

The project is being implemented in collaboration with the national Education Departments and local partners. The objective is not only to restore the education facilities in those areas, but also to achieve higher and more sustainable enrolment and attendance ratios.

Cash for WorkPlan supported the establishment of cash-for-work schemes, paying people affected by the floods to carry out work on public infrastructure. To date:

• 3 such schemes have benefited 394 people including 56 women in southern Punjab• 5 additional schemes are under way, involving 894 people• 15 more schemes planned

These projects not only provide much-needed income to the labourers, but allow much-needed repairs to be carried out on roads and other infrastructures quickly, using available resources.

AdvocacyIn addition to its own projects, Plan campaigned for a focus on child protection in the wider aid effort.

International organisations: As a member of the UN clusters2 for education, heath, community restoration, food security, nutrition, and water and sanitation, Plan held awareness-raising sessions on child protection and distributed relevant leaflets.

National government: Plan produced 10,000 charts, posters and leaflets on health and hygiene, and passed them to the National Disaster Management Authority for wider distribution.

Local government: Plan approached social welfare departments at district level regarding missing children, the identification of found children and their reunification with their families. Plan also advocated for measures aimed at children with special needs.

Health During the crisis, it was essential to educate the survivors about the importance of basic hygiene, especially given the difficult conditions of displaced people living in flooded areas.

Information, education and communication: Plan conducted 772 health and hygiene awareness sessions, which were attended by a total of over 38,700 individuals. Plan also developed and produced information leaflets on health and hygiene.

Medical materials: Medical supplies were also badly needed. Plan delivered 101 pallets of medicines to the Pakistani authorities for distribution. These supplies, over 35 tonnes in total, and worth nearly US $1.4 million, included antibiotics, anti-fungal creams, rehydrating salts and other hospital supplies. These supplies were distributed over the whole affected area, not restricted to the zones where Plan is active.

Maternity: For expecting mothers, 8 newborn baby kits were provided in the camps of Layyah and Muzaffargarh, in southern Punjab, as well as 148 clean delivery kits in neighbouring Rajanpur.

Across the area of activities supported by Plan, 48,460 health and hygiene kits were distributed among 47,771 families. These kits included soap, toothpaste and sanitary supplies, and water purification tablets.

Two medical camps in Ghotki district, Sindh province, were established by partners with Plan’s support.

Water, Sanitation and Hygiene Clean water is a key part of any humanitarian crisis response, to avoid diseases and malnutrition. Plan implemented measures for the supply of water, and supported sanitation initiatives to make sure the water stayed clean enough for safe use.

In the aftermath of the floods, an immediate concern was that due to the contamination of thousands of wells and other water sources many of the displaced would be at high risk of diarrhoea, cholera, malaria, dengue and respiratory infections.

Plan installed 544 hand pumps and carried out 213 deliveries of water by truck to communal tanks, supporting thousands of families.

The hand pumps allowed water to be drawn from depths of 12 to 15 metres, compared to the 3 or 4 metres’ depth of the wells and pumps many survivors were using. The deeper water is much cleaner and safer, and was tested for contamination. Around 3,800 families benefitted from the extra hand pumps.

The water tank deliveries to communal tanks supplied over 7,000 families with water for over 30 days.

Plan and its local partners installed 1,234 pit latrines across all districts. Separate latrines were installed for women and girls, who also received their own hygiene education sessions.

Other health and hygiene initiatives, including the distribution of washing kits and leaflets, and awareness-raising sessions, also contributed to improving the sanitation of the environment in general and the water supply in particular.

To address the sanitation problem more widely, Plan has initiated a community-led total sanitation approach which will reach over 1 million people in rural areas across 30 flood-affected districts. Water contamination and sanitation are estimated to be responsible for 60 per cent of child mortality cases in Pakistan, where 45 per cent of the rural community defecate in the open.

The programme, supported by UN agencies, national organisations and NGOs, aims to reach over 3 million people in the next two phases, encouraging rural communities to build toilets and raising awareness of sanitation issues and water supply.

Child Friendly SpacesIn addition to the issues facing all survivors, children faced particular challenges and risks. The shock of displacement can hit them harder than adults, and many in addition had also lost or become separated from their parents. Furthermore, the risk of exploitation and abuse of children can be increased by the conditions of the displaced communities.

Plan made it a priority to set up safe spaces for children to allow them to get back to a normal life as quickly as possible.

With local partners, Plan established 301 child-friendly spaces (CFS) where 20,387 children had the opportunity to learn, play, and feel safe. This psychosocial support was supplemented with special sessions by trained staff – in essence emotional first aid – for children experiencing nightmares and distress as a result of the crisis.

The CFS held daily, two-hour sessions for the children, separated into three age groups: 3 to 6 years, 7 to 13 and 14 to 17. The children were also split into groups of boys and girls.

Each centre also received recreational kits for the two younger age groups. The kit for the 3- to 6-year-olds contained items for drawing and other creative play. The material for the 7- to 13-year olds included similar items, and also reading, writing and sports equipment.

Children’s Participation in Disaster Risk ReductionPrior to the 2010 floods, Plan Pakistan was engaged in disaster risk reduction (DRR) programmes across three districts, with an emphasis on the role and rights of children.

The programme established 90 groups of children or youths at village level, where they participated in conducting hazards assessments and preparing contingency plans, with particular attention paid to the rights, requirements and roles of children and young people in natural disasters.

Teenagers were encouraged to build raised platforms in their communities to provide a refuge for people, livestock and emergency provisions in case of flooding. Children were also taught to monitor water levels on barrages and levees, and inform the community by mobile phone. Plan and its partners would then publish the information about the rising water levels, allowing affected communities to take appropriate action. These initiatives allowed a weak spot in the levee protecting the Layyah city to be identified and reinforced in time, which probably saved the city from the floods.

Plan and partners also carried out emergency drills and swimming lessons.

Plan facilitated the establishment of networks between district coordination officers, officials from national government, civil society organisations (CSOs) and the children’s groups.

Plan also supported two training sessions for CSOs and NGOs, which were attended by 49 people in total. Another 255 sessions for the public on disaster risk reduction were held, with 14,212 participants. In addition, Plan supported 6 workshops for media professionals about the sensitivities of reporting during and after a disaster, which were attended by 58 journalists.

Eid packagesThe Pakistan floods struck just weeks before the Muslim fasting month of Ramadan, which ends with the feast of Eid.

In order to raise spirits and provide culturally appropriate aid, Plan distributed special Eid packages to 14,333 families, each including vermicelli, sugar and cooking oil - key ingredients for the traditional dessert of siwaiyaan. Clothes, shoes and other items were also distributed for Eid.

The Way Forward

The Pakistan floods of 2010 were a tragic reminder that disasters, however “natural”, are profoundly discriminatory: some people are always more vulnerable than others and poverty and vulnerability are closely linked. The majority of those who lost their lives or whose livelihood was completely destroyed by the floods were people and communities already living in poverty.

Through the concerted efforts of Plan and many other organisations, most of the 20 million people affected by floods have been able to start rebuilding their lives.

However, the silt, standing water and saturated soil the waters left behind continue to make rebuilding houses and restoring farmlands difficult and even impossible in some areas. Additionally, the vulnerability to future flooding remains high, with seasonal monsoons a yearly threat and the potential for this year’s rains to disrupt repair work on houses, croplands and flood defences.

Sanitation, education and livelihood problems attributable to the flood also remain widespread in the affected areas. Plan, its partners and other organisations are committed to continuing to tackle these problems together with national authorities.

Moving forward, Plan is focusing its recovery resources on water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) projects, in particular to improve children’s protection from diseases that could interrupt their education.

Plan is also taking a holistic approach to managing disasters, working in the most vulnerable districts of southern Punjab and Sindh, and putting children’s priorities at the centre. Using the lessons of the 2010 floods, and ensuring that children have a voice in the preparedness planning, Plan will work to strengthen local government systems and improve the effectiveness of civil society organisations. Plan will continue to advocate for the rights of children during disasters and will work in partnership with local organisations and governments so families and communities in Pakistan are better prepared for future emergencies.
