SUMMARY:Asian Ministerial Conference on Disaster Risk Reduction (AMCDRR) | 2-5 November 2016 | New Delhi\, India
DESCRIPTION:6th AMCDRR in New Delhi\, India \nRisks and vulnerabilities go beyond national boundaries. Regional platforms provide an opportunity to address trans-boundary issues around disaster prevention and preparedness by providing leadership\, by addressing disaster risks and building the resilience of communities and nations in the region. \nIn Asia\, the regional platform mainly consists of the Asian Ministerial Conferences on Disaster Risk Reduction (AMCDRR) and the ISDR Asia Partnership (IAP) forum as its mechanism for consultation and technical support. Established in 2005\, the AMCDRR is a biennial conference jointly organized by different Asian countries and the United Nations Office for Disaster Risk Reduction (UNISDR). \nThe AMCDRR serves as a forum for stakeholders to take a shared responsibility and make actionable commitments towards implementation of DRR in the Asia region through the exchange of experiences on successful practices and innovative approaches in reducing and managing disaster risk. \nThe AMCDRR is an established regional mechanism for disaster risk reduction. Its success is largely due to the joint leadership of hosting governments and their partnership with UNISDR who provided the technical support. As a result\, the AMCDRR has been instrumental in increasing political commitment and strengthening the disaster risk reduction agenda at all levels. \nThis AMCDRR is the first one held after the advent of the Sendai Framework\, hosted by the Government of India in November 2016. \nLast week\, representatives from the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement\, including thirteen National Societies\, joined senior-level government delegations and experts at AMCDRR to exchange experience and chart the way forward to build resilience and reduce disaster risk across the Asia region. The Movement called for greater investment in local actors and new partnerships to reduce disaster risk and increase community resilience. \nThe objectives of the AMCDRR 2016 conference are as follows: \n\nTransforming the commitment of governments and stakeholders made in Sendai during the WCDRR into national and local action.\nSetting the direction to accelerate regional implementation and monitoring of the Sendai Framework\n\n  \nOutcome documents: \n\nNew Delhi Declaration: A political declaration consolidating the political commitment of governments towards preventing and reducing risk as well as strengthening resilience by accelerating implementation and monitoring of the Sendai Framework in the region.\nAsia Regional Plan for Implementation of the Sendai Framework – a plan endorsed by the countries for the Asian region.\nStakeholder action statements – voluntary statements of action of stakeholder groups towards a ‘shared responsibility’ approach in implementation of the Sendai Framework. See IFRC Stakeholder action statement and Children and Youth Stakeholder Action Statements (IFRC is part of the Stakeholder Group)\n\n  \nRelevant document: \n\nAsia Pacific National DRM Strategy towards Community Resilience 2016-2020\n\n  \nFor more information\, please see this press release by IFRC.

SUMMARY:Southeast Asia Behavior Change Training: Risks\, Attitude\, Norms\, Abilities and Self Regulation (RANAS) Approach | 8-9 November 2016 | Cambodia
DESCRIPTION:Risks\, Attitude\, Norms\, Abilities and Self Regulation (RANAS) training was conducted in Siem Reap\, Cambodia\, on 8-9 November 2016\, by Swiss Red Cross\, IFRC and Cambodian Red Cross. \nThe 2-day workshop was participated by water\, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) practitioners from Southeast Asian National Societies of Cambodia\, Indonesia\, Laos\, Malaysia\, Myanmar\, Viet Nam\, Philippines and IFRC. \nThe training course module consists of an introduction into the planning\, design\, and evaluation of systematic behaviour change campaigns. \nThe participants learned about how to conduct a quantitative survey measuring the behavioural factors\, how to identify the required behaviour change techniques and how to verify their effectiveness. The course targets practitioners interested in behaviour change\, especially in water\, sanitation and hygiene in developing countries. The objective was achieved through lectures\, practical experience from the projects\, group exercises\, and plenary discussions. \nThe Risks\, Attitudes\, Norms\, Abilities\, and Self-regulation (RANAS) approach to systematic behaviour change is an established method for designing and evaluating behaviour change strategies that target and change the factors influencing a specific behaviour in a specific population. In brief\, it is an easily applied method for measuring behavioural factors\, assessing their influence on behaviour\, designing tailored strategies that change behaviour\, and measuring the effectiveness of these. Although it was originally developed to change behaviour in the water\, sanitation and hygiene (WaSH) sector in developing countries\, it is applicable to a range of behaviours in various settings and populations. \nTraining documents: \n\nSystematic Behavior Change in Water Sanitation and Hygiene – A practical guide using the RANAS (Risk\, Attitude\, Norms and Self Regulation) approach.\nMethodological Fact Sheets – RANAS (Risks\, Attitudes\, Norms\, Abilities and Self Regulation) approach to systematic behavior change\nFor more information\, refer to this external link.\n\n  \nOutcome document:  \n\nTraining Report

SUMMARY:Roundtable Discussion on Housing\, Land and Property (HLP) Regulatory Barriers to Shelter & Settlements: Philippine Red Cross Experience | 22-23 November 2016 | Manila\, Philippines
DESCRIPTION:Roundtable Discussion on Housing\, Land and Property (HLP) Regulatory Barriers to Shelter & Settlements: Philippine Red Cross Experience \nThe Philippine Red Cross (PRC) held national level rollout of the recently developed IFRC pilot training on “Regulatory Barriers to Shelter and Settlements in Disaster Contexts in Asia Pacific”. The Philippine rollout\, entitled “Roundtable Discussion on Housing\, Land and Property (HLP) Regulatory Barriers to Shelter & Settlements: Philippine Red Cross Experience”\, was jointly organized by the PRC-IFRC Disaster Law Programme\, PRC Shelter and Settlements Unit\, and IFRC APRO Shelter and Settlements Coordinator last November 22-23\, 2016. \nPRC shelter officers and technical/operations field staff from select Haiyan-affected areas—Tacloban\, Leyte\, Capiz and Aklan—recounted the regulatory barriers that they had faced in providing adequate shelter assistance to disaster-affected households. Most of the identified barriers concerned lack of access to suitable land for core shelter and inflexible land tenure prerequisites for households seeking shelter assistance. PRC participants identified “key points” for an organizational HLP Strategy that will map out advocacy and mitigation actions to address or remove these barriers in future humanitarian interventions. \nPartner National Societies Japanese Red Cross and British Red Cross\, as well as shelter cluster members IOM\, Habitat for Humanity and Catholic Relief Services joined the discussion and teamed up with PRC to identify key points for an overall HLP strategy for the Philippine humanitarian community.

SUMMARY:Second Humanitarian Week by Singapore Red Cross | November 2016 | Singapore
DESCRIPTION:Humanitarian Dialogue “The Advent of New Technologies on Warfare: Challenges in Respecting International Law” \nThe advancement of modern technologies has paved the way forward for humanity. Yet\, they also have the potential to unleash bloodshed and devastation of an unimaginable scale\, particularly when they fall into the hands of terrorists intended to waging war on humanity. \nThis was highlighted at a humanitarian dialogue on “The Advent of New Technologies on Warfare: Challenges in Respecting International Law” at The Atrium at Orchard Road on 23 November 2016. \nMore than 50 people gathered for the dialogue featuring esteemed panelists Dr. Rohan Gunaratna\, Head of International Centre for Political Violence and Terrorism Research\, S. Rajaratnam\, School of International Studies and Fiona Barnaby\, Regional Legal Adviser of the International Committee of the Red Cross. Chew Lip Heng\, Head of Operations Control\, International Services\, Singapore Red Cross moderated the dialogue. Red Cross News shares some insights from the panelists. \nTerrorists have leveraged cyberspace for fundraising\, hacking of websites\, procurement and recruitment. They have the resources to deploy modern technology like projectiles\, drones and nanotechnology to launch large-scale attacks worldwide. And sadly\, no one country is spared from the threat of terrorism\, since the world today is increasingly global and interconnected. \nGiven that modern technologies like drones lack emotion or judgement call\, the scale of devastation can be unimaginably catastrophic\, possibly resulting in widespread bloodshed\, loss of plausibly hundreds of thousands of civilian lives and extensive destruction of properties. \nThe challenge that modern technology poses on International Humanitarian Law cannot be underestimated. Modern technology may complicate the challenges faced by the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC). This is especially true given the potentially wider scale of devastation and the difficulty in negotiating with both the terrorists and politicians to ensure compliance with the International Humanitarian Law. \nIn recent months\, the terrorist attacks have been brought closer to home. \nIn Singapore\, six men in Batam together with Syrian-based Indonesian ISIS militant Bahrun Naim were planning a rocket attack on Marina Bay in August this year. Malaysian Yazid Sufaat is now believed to be one of al-Qaeda’s main anthrax researchers. He was also said to be the same person who conceived attacks in the US. \nHowever\, large-scale attacks on civilians are never justified. \nThe challenge is for governments to build up capabilities to prevent such attacks and to work together to destroy terrorists’ nucleus. Laws\, including the International Humanitarian Law\, are important and pragmatic. Punitive measures need to be put in place for those who flout the IHL laws. However\, that cannot be done in silos. Though it’s often easier said than done\, governments\, and even terrorists themselves\, have to play a role in protecting innocent lives by complying with IHL. \nYouth Leadership Humanitarian Camp \nMilitants from the Deldar Army made perpetual calls for attack. Tumultuous bomb blasts exploded in the air\, sending chills down the spines of those who heard them. Continuous gunshots reverberated in the background that fateful Friday morning. The fearful cries of citizens of Haddar\, held as hostages by Deldar militants\, lingered in the vicinity of the Red Cross Training Campsite. \nThe earlier scenario was part of a RAID CROSS simulation exercise\, held at the second Youth Leadership Humanitarian Camp (YLHC) on 24 and 25 November. It simulated the attack between two fictitious cities\, Haddar and Deldar. \nFor eighteen youth participants\, the camp provided them with the first-hand experience of being caught in an armed conflict – a situation that all were unaccustomed to. \nBesides RAID CROSS\, participants also gleaned insights into Humanitarian Education topics through classroom activities\, campfire and team building exercises. Topics learnt included lifesaving and evacuation skills\, Exploring Humanitarian Law (EHL) and modules from the Youths As Agents of Behavioural Change (YABC) programme by the IFRC. \nParticipants honed their leadership skills by taking on various key roles and appointments throughout the camp. \nAt the end of the camp\, awards were presented to seven participants who embodied the Movement’s Seven Fundamental Principles. \n“My favourite part of the camp would be the RAID CROSS activity. The simulations were well-planned and suited to the actual happenings in the world. The camp also taught me how to be a more effective leader. It is not always easy to be one but the courage to try and carry on is always better than not doing it at all. Overall\, it was an enriching experience for me\,” Andrew Amadeus Susilo\, recipient of the ‘Medal of Independence’ award. \nOrganised for youths aged between 15 to 18 years old\, the camp was aimed at strengthening the leadership capabilities and inculcating humanitarian values among youth leaders. This was achieved by exposing them to the various issues and challenges within the humanitarian field. \nHumanitarian Experiential Camp \nWhen some 40 Singapore Red Cross (SRC) adult volunteers and members attended a one-day camp at Red Cross Training Campsite on 26 November\, they expected it to be another engagement session to learn more about the work of the Singapore Red Cross. Little did they know that they were about to enter an ongoing conflict zone. \nThe day started quite peacefully with a series of team bonding activities. They learnt about the Seven Fundamental Principles of the Red Cross Red Crescent Movement and Exploring Humanitarian Law (EHL) through brainstorming sessions and classroom activities. \nYet\, their quiet Saturday was disrupted when participants entered a simulated Prisoners-of-War (POWs) Camp\, where they had to step into the shoes of in-camp prisoners in order to get their lunch. \nAnd the chaos continues. \nWhile moving in groups\, participants played the roles of Psychological First Aid providers\, International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) workers\, war hostages and First Aid providers as they underwent a series of obstacle courses to complete their allocated missions. \nSome of the missions that they had to complete included clearing “mines” in a field\, rendering First Aid to help wounded soldiers\, providing psychological first aid to distressed victims and collecting dry food rations for sustainability. \nThe heavy afternoon showers towards the end of the day did not hamper the participants’ moods. As the day came to a close\, the participants bade their farewells to the facilitators and their newly found friends. They also gained knowledge and a deeper sense of appreciation towards global humanitarian issues. \n“When I received the invitation to the Humanitarian Education Experience\, I was really excited about registering for it. Yet at the same time\, I was worried about the (physical) activities that I might have to do. This one-day camp turned out to be a wonderful experience for me. I got the chance to play different roles in situations of war and conflict. I’ve learnt that we must not only be physically prepared for such violence but mentally as well. Further\, as a Volunteer and Member of the Movement\, the lesson on the Fundamental Principles serves to remind me of the values that I need to uphold\,” shared Aubrey Arguelles\, a SRC Member.

SUMMARY:Launch of DRR and Law: Checklist Assessment Report in Indonesia
DESCRIPTION:IFRC share recommendations from the DRR and Law Report with the Disaster Management Authority of Indonesia\, BNPB \nIndonesia continues to demonstrate its global leadership on disaster risk management\, with its recent launch of its Strengthening  Law and Disaster Risk Reduction in Indonesia: Checklist Assessment Report in Jakarta. The research undertaken by Indonesia Red Cross (PMI) and IFRC\, with financial support provided by the Government of Canada and Canadian Red Cross\, provides an assessment of Indonesia’s legal and policy framework for disaster risk reduction\, using the  Checklist on the  Law and DRR which was developed jointly by UNDP and IFRC.  The Checklist supports government and other stakeholders to assess their country’s laws and policies against ten key areas –  from how well integrated DRR is integrated in  sectorial laws like education\, housing  and land use planning to  how community participation is mandated in risk reduction decision making. \nTsunami\, including the development of a very sophisticated disaster management  legal system – there are some areas that require further attention. These issues relate to\, among others\, stronger institutional mechanisms for horizontal coordination on DRR across the sectors\, as well as vertical coordination from national to village level. There also needs to be greater priority placed on implementation\, particularly at the village level and ensuring communities are actively engaged in decision making. The report clearly lays out recommendations under each of the checklist questions on ways that risk reduction can be better integrated into the laws and regulations in Indonesia and provides a strong evidence base for future action. \nLaunch of the DRR and Law Report during the Partners for Resilience Events in Jakarta \nThe report was launched as part of the Partners for Resilience (PfR) event held in Jakarta on 30 November 2016.  Partners for Resilience is an alliance of humanitarian\, development\, climate and environmental civil society organizations globally\, including in  in Indonesia who work together to promote the application of Integrated Risk Management (IRM) to strengthen and protect livelihoods of vulnerable communities\, primarily against climate-related natural hazards\, and with special attention for inclusivity and the role of gender. The DRR and Law report provides a strong evidence base for their ongoing advocacy and influence efforts in Indonesia. PMI and IFRC will continue to work through this alliance to ensure that recommendations from the report are considered and acted on in Indonesia. \n  \nThis update is also published in ifrc.org at this link. \n  \nSee also:  \n\nStrengthening Law and Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR) in Indonesia – Checklist Assessment Report\nChecklist on Law and Disaster Risk Reduction\nStrengthening law and disaster risk reduction (DRR) in Indonesia – Consultation Workshop | 29 Feb 2016 | Indonesia
