This to be done peacefully living alongside host communities, for whom the impacts of the crisis need to be reduced and development opportunities provided. The programme marks a shift in FCDO’s (Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office) response to the crisis by providing longer term, predictable support to address the needs of both refugees and host communities. Whilst the focus will be on sustaining and improving the humanitarian operation through provision of quality basic services, there will be a specific focus on stimulating the economy, rehabilitating the environment, and promoting stability for both populations’ benefit.

Syria Independent Monitoring 2
UK - Foreign, Commonwealth Development Office (FCDO)
The aim of this programme is to provide independent monitoring of DFID-funded projects in Syria. Due to security risks, DFID has no presence in Syria and our staff manage projects remotely from Lebanon and the UK. This means we are unable to directly monitor the delivery and quality of DFID projects. Independent monitoring is our principal method of ensuring funding in Syria is being used as intended. It allows us to verify partners reporting and enhances the quality of our oversight. It is also instrumental to our risk mitigation and quality and control measures. The expected impact of this programme is to improve portfolio and programme delivery and performance, leading to improved development outcomes and stronger public and ministerial confidence in DFID Syria programming.
Zimbabwe Humanitarian and Resilience Programme (ZHARP) 2019-25
UK - Foreign, Commonwealth Development Office (FCDO)
This programme will provide a monthly unconditional cash transfer of USD $13 to at least 11,000 people with very high levels of food insecurity in urban areas. Each person (up to 5 in one family) will receive the transfer for a minimum period of 9 months, allowing them to purchase basic food stuffs and try to avoid resorting to damaging coping strategies during the peak lean season. In addition, the programme will work on synergies with WFP and other donors to pilot approaches to building the resilience of vulnerable urban populations to economic and climatic shocks. WFP will also further develop and mainstream the Toose GBV approach in a form that can be added or ‘layered’ onto WFP assistance programmes across Zimbabwe and potentially globally.

The SHAPP will address as many basic needs as possible of the most vulnerable including child protection, support to victims or survivors of gender based violence, food, nutrition, water and sanitation. Human rights and international humanitarian law will remain at the centre of the new programme by informing and driving SHAPP design and priorities.

Affordability of Food & Finance in Yemen
UK - Foreign, Commonwealth Development Office (FCDO)
Yemen’s economic crisis exacerbates humanitarian need and political instability. With 90% of Yemen’s food imported, prices are rising – a major factor behind famine risk. Meanwhile, rising public discontent over currency instability and food prices could trigger Government collapse, undermining the peace process. The programme will provide funding to preserve and strengthen institutional capacity, help maintain access to trade finance to enable the continued flow of imports and stabilise food prices. Improved policies will help to stabilise the exchange rate and macroeconomy, reduce food price inflation and avoid further escalation of humanitarian needs. The programme will benefit populations across the country, by lowering the cost of food and increase access to hard currency.

The LHP will provide critical and flexible humanitarian assistance to households across Lebanon, according to vulnerability rather than nationality. Recognising the need to ensure sustainability, the programme will also take a patient development approach as far as possible: providing technical assistance to support national systems and improve the efficiency of aid delivery.
