Subject line: “[PD-ADN-00669] – Application – Early Action Protocol Development Yemen – Name of company”
Objective :
Action Against Hunger is committed to strengthening anticipatory action mechanisms that enable communities and humanitarian actors to take early action before predictable crises escalate. Drawing from international best practices, ACF aims to develop contextualized Early Action Protocols (EAP) for Taiz and Hodeidah governorates that establish clear triggers and predetermined actions to mitigate the impact of identified hazards on vulnerable populations.
Recap :
The aim of this consultancy is to develop comprehensive, multi-hazard EAPs that integrate community feedback, government actions, leverage existing early warning systems, and enable timely anticipatory action to reduce humanitarian impacts on vulnerable populations.
More specifically, it will be:
- To review the existing multi-Hazards assessment conducted in Yemen and conduct a complementary assessment, if needed based on the review results, to enable a complete analysis
- To integrate findings from the ongoing detailed mapping assessment of existing Early Warning Systems (EWS) and their functionality and define the communication channels
- To engage communities and local stakeholders through participatory approaches to incorporate contextual knowledge, indigenous early warning indicators, and feedback into protocol design
- To develop hazard-specific trigger mechanisms based on predefined thresholds
- To design a tiered activation system with clearly defined early actions mapped to each trigger level and define roles, responsibilities, decision-making authority, and activation mechanisms for the EAP
- To establish monitoring, verification, and learning frameworks including After-Action Review protocols
- To propose financing mechanisms, budget allocations, and resource pre-positioning strategies for anticipatory action
