Résumé
September 2023 – On September 10, Storm Daniel hit northeastern Libya with heavy rains and flash floods, affecting various cities, including Al Marj, Benghazi, and Derna. As of September 14, the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) indicates that 884,000 people need humanitarian assistance. Several factors influence and exacerbate the severity of humanitarian needs, including pre-existing conditions, deteriorating socio-economic situations, and logistical and access constraints to certain areas. Before the storm, 300,000 people in Libya were assessed to require humanitarian assistance, according to the 2023 Humanitarian Overview. With GAC’s support, the Canadian Red Cross and the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC) are working to save lives and help reduce the suffering of people affected by flooding. Project activities include: (1) providing multi-purpose cash to meet basic needs and avoid negative coping strategies; (2) distributing in-kind relief items such as food, non-food items, and emergency shelter support; and (3) providing emergency healthcare and protection services, including mental health and psychosocial support.

Description (French)
Septembre 2023 - Le 10 septembre, la tempête Daniel a frappé le nord-est de la Libye avec de fortes pluies et des inondations soudaines, affectant plusieurs villes, dont Al Marj, Benghazi et Derna. Le 14 septembre, le Bureau de la coordination des affaires humanitaires des Nations Unies (BCAH) indique que 884 000 personnes ont besoin d'une aide humanitaire. Plusieurs facteurs influencent et exacerbent la gravité des besoins humanitaires, notamment les conditions préexistantes, la détérioration des situations socio-économiques et les contraintes logistiques et d'accès à certaines zones. Avant la tempête, 300 000 personnes en Libye ont été évaluées comme ayant besoin d'une assistance humanitaire, selon l'aperçu humanitaire 2023. Avec le soutien d'AMC, la Croix-Rouge canadienne et la Fédération internationale des sociétés de la Croix-Rouge et du Croissant-Rouge (FICR) s'efforcent de sauver des vies et d'atténuer les souffrances des personnes touchées par les inondations. Les activités d e ce projet comprennent : 1) la fourniture d'argent liquide polyvalent pour répondre aux besoins de base et éviter les stratégies d'adaptation négatives; 2) la distribution d'articles de secours tels que de la nourriture, des articles non alimentaires et des abris d'urgence; 3) la fourniture de soins de santé d'urgence et de services de protection, y compris en santé mentale et l'aide psychosociale.
Expected Results
The expected outcomes of this project include: (1) increased access and availability of emergency health and protection services; (2) improved access to multi-purpose cash assistance to meet basic needs and to emergency shelter; and (3) mobilized in-kind humanitarian supplies successfully distributed to support flood-affected populations. The expected ultimate outcome is lives saved, suffering alleviated, and human dignity maintained in countries experiencing humanitarian crises or acute food insecurity.
Expected Results (French)
Les résultats escomptés de ce projet comprennent : 1) l'amélioration de l'accès et de la disponibilité des services de santé et de protection d'urgence; 2) l'amélioration de l'accès à l'aide financière polyvalente pour répondre aux besoins de base et aux abris d'urgence; 3) la mobilisation de fournitures humanitaires distribuées avec succès pour soutenir les populations touchées par les inondations. Le résultat final attendu est de sauver des vies, d'alléger les souffrances et de préserver la dignité humaine dans les pays en proie à des crises humanitaires ou à une insécurité alimentaire aiguë.
