WaSH Daily Worker

TERMS OF REFERENCE

Daily workers for WAP assessment – WAP DW

BACKGROUND

In Lebanon, Action against Hunger (AAH) has been present since the second half of 2006, where it has implemented an emergency project following the 2006 summer conflict.

Action Against Hunger has been implementing water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) activities in the last years, supporting more than 44,000 most vulnerable refugees in Bekaa area and Aarsal. The organization field work observations, data from VASyR 2018 and sector assessments indicate that the target populations will experience a degradation in situation and that there are increasing risks of public health outbreaks in the informal settlement (IS) and collective shelters (CS) locations due to an overdependence on water trucking and desludging services and lack of sustainable infrastructures. Weakened households and systems are also leading to higher risks, especially for the acutely vulnerable, including the elderly and children.

As part of the response plan to the Syrian refugees’ situation in Lebanon and with the underlying aim of combating hunger, Action Against Hunger is implementing WASH projects in the Bekaa Valley targeting Syrian refugees and Lebanese hosting communities. Due to the migration of more than one million refugees to Lebanon following the Syrian crisis in 2011, the pressure on Lebanon’s resources has increased affecting mostly water, sanitation and solid waste management. Good hygiene practices are the base of the healthy situation of the refugees, to avoid diarrhoea sickness and any epidemic that can affect Syrian refugees and Lebanese hosting communities.
