THE MEDICAL MISSION STARTED IN 2018 AND WAS EXTENDED INTO 2019 DUE TO THE HIGH PRESSING NEED FOR MEDICAL CARE. TREATMENT OF PREVENTABLE ILLNESSES, LIKE CATARACTS, LOW VISION AND LOW HEARING, IS ONE OF THE MOST EFFECTIVE WAYS TO LIFT PEOPLE OUT OF POVERTY, ESPECIALLY FOR VULNERABLE COMMUNITIES LIKE REFUGEES LIVING IN MAKESHIFT ENVIRONMENTS. THEY REGAIN THEIR INDEPENDENCE AND CONFIDENCE TO APPROACH ECONOMIC OPPORTUNITIES AND EDUCATION.GIFTS IN KINDUMR BOASTS A STRONG MEDICAL GIFT IN KIND SUPPLY CHAIN. WE WORK WITH PRIVATE MEDICAL PROVIDERS TO PROCURE MEDICAL SUPPLIES RANGING FROM DISPOSABLES SUCH AS GLOVES, BANDAGES, AND PRESCRIPTION MEDICATIONS TO EQUIPMENT CRITICAL TO THE SUCCESS OF A HEALTHCARE INSTITUTION SUCH AS X-RAY AND ULTRASOUND MACHINES. THIS IS A CRITICAL TOOL FOR CAPACITY BUILDING OF HOSPITALS AS IT FREES UP MONETARY RESOURCES TO HIRE NEW DOCTORS AND REDUCE THE COST BURDEN ON PATIENTS. NOTABLY, UMR WORKED DIRECTLY WITH THE WHO AND THE MINISTRY OF HEALTH TO SERVICE 11 PUBLIC HOSPITALS IN GAZA. GOODS PROVIDED WERE ANTIBIOTIC FOR COMMON ILLNESSES SUCH AS SINUS INFECTIONS AND ANTI BACTERIAL DRUGS FOR TREATMENT OF PNEUMONIA AND OTHER NCDS. SOME SHIPMENTS WERE TIMED TO LAND IN THE WAKE OF A DISASTER AS GAZA FREQUENTLY SUFFERS FROM BOTH NATURAL AND MANMADE CRISES. ALSO NOTABLE ARE SHIPMENTS TO YEMEN, WHICH FOCUS ON CHOLERA CLEANUP KITS AND ANTI-MICROBIAL MEDICATIONS DESIGNED TO STOP THE SPREAD OF AND CURE CHOLERA. UMR ALSO EQUIPPED YEMENI HOSPITALS WITH BASIC SUPPLIES NOT AVAILABLE LOCALLY SUCH AS BEDS AND MATTRESSES. SUPPLIES WAS TRANSFERRED TO LOCAL PARTNERS WHO PROVIDED LOGISTICAL SUPPORT TO DELIVER GOODS TO 1 HOSPITAL IN SANA'A, 2 HOSPITALS IN HODEIDAH, AND 2 HOSPITALS IN IBB PROVINCES.

FOOD SECURITY:TEN MILLION YEMENIS ARE 'ONE STEP AWAY' FROM FAMINE, 5.6 MILLION SYRIAN REFUGEES SUFFER DONOR FATIGUE IN A PROTRACTED CRISIS, AND SOMALI IDP POPULATION REACHED 2.6 MILLION IN MORE THAN 2,000 IDP SITES FLEEING DROUGHT AND LANDSLIDES. UMR MOBILIZED ALL POSSIBLE RESOURCES TO SHARE THE BURDEN, ALONG WITH STRENGTHENING THE CAPACITY OF LOCAL GOVERNMENT AND THE PRIVATE SECTOR. OUR RAMADAN AND QURBANI FOOD PROGRAMS PROVIDED FOOD PARCELS, AND A MIX OF IFTAR MEALS, EID AND ZAKAT CASH VOUCHERS TO 187,372 PEOPLE IN 2019, PRIORITIZING ROHINGYA REFUGEES IN BANGLADESH, ORPHANS AND WOMEN IN GARISSA KENYA, INTERNALLY DISPLACED SOMALIS IN BAIDOA SOMALIA, SYRIAN AND PALESTINIAN REFUGEES THROUGHOUT JORDAN AND IRAQ, INTERNALLY DISPLACED FAMILIES IN YEMEN, AND LOW INCOME FAMILIES IN EGYPT. IN ADDITION, UMR SPONSORED A SOUP KITCHEN IN PAKISTAN WHICH SERVED 600 MEALS, OPERATING SIX DAYS A WEEK WITH DELIVERY SERVICE TO HOSPITALS. ALTHOUGH UMR PROVIDES FOOD ASSISTANCE THROUGH A VARIETY OF ITS PROGRAMS THROUGHOUT THE YEAR, WE GIVE SPECIAL ATTENTION TO CULTURAL OCCASIONS LIKE RAMADAN AND EID QURBANI CELEBRATIONS TO DELIVER DIGNIFIED AND CULTURALLY-SENSITIVE NOURISHMENT OPTIONS. OUR QURBANI AND RAMADAN FOOD PROGRAMS DO NOT ONLY AIM TO ALLEVIATE POVERTY AND MALNOURISHMENT WITH ACCESS TO NUTRITIOUS FOOD, BUT ALSO WORKS TO OVERCOME BARRIERS TO ACCESS AND TO SOCIAL INCLUSION WHICH ARE SPECIFIC TO REFUGEES, THE INTERNALLY DISPLACED, AND MARGINALIZED COMMUNITIES.

CHILD PROTECTIONWITH THE GENEROUS SUPPORT OF OUR DONORS, UMR CHILD PROTECTION PROGRAM SUPPORTED 348 ORPHANS IN 2019 IN KENYA, PAKISTAN, AND BANGLADESH, TO ATTEND SCHOOL BY COVERING SCHOOL TUITION, SCHOOL SUPPLIES AND NOURISHING MEALS, AND HAVE SOME POCKET MONEY FOR DAILY EXPENSES. THESE MEASURES IMPROVE SCHOOL ATTENDANCE RATES FOR SUCH VULNERABLE CHILDREN AND ALLOW THEM AN OPPORTUNITY TO OVERCOME ADVERSITY AND REALIZE THEIR FULL POTENTIAL.ORPHANED, DISABLED, AND POOR CHILDREN ARE SENSITIVE TO THEIR UNIQUE SITUATION COMPARED TO OTHER CHILDREN. UMR MAKES SPECIAL EFFORTS TO ASSIST THEIR SOCIAL INCLUSION IN A WAY THAT GIVES THEM SOME POWER AND CONTROL OVER THEIR CHOICES. IN JORDAN, UMR CONCLUDED A MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING WITH AL DARAGHMEH COMPANY, ONE OF THE LARGEST CLOTHING RETAIL COMPANIES IN JORDAN, TO PROVIDE NEW CLOTHES VOUCHERS IN OBSERVANCE OF EID CELEBRATION FOR 315 ORPHANS, DISABLED AND POOR KIDS IN AMMAN, KARAK, JERASH AND RAMTHAH. CHILDREN WERE FREE TO CHOOSE THE CLOTHES WHILE SHOPPING.UMR COLLABORATED WITH KENYA'S CHILDREN DEPARTMENT IN GARISSA LOCAL GOVERNMENT, LOCAL NGOS (SIMAHO AND WOMEN INITIATIVE HEALTH CARE), COMMUNITY AND TRIBE LEADERS, TO IDENTIFY ORPHANS WITH NO SUPPORT OR VERY LOW INCOME IN GARISSA COUNTY. 365 ORPHANS (200 ORPHANS SPONSORED BY UMR IN GARISSA AND OTHER NEEDY 165 ORPHANS) RECEIVED EID GIFTS. CHILDREN WERE OF SOMALI-KENYAN AND SOMALI ORIGIN, 60% GIRLS AND 40% BOYS.PSYCHOSOCIAL SUPPORT SERVICES (PSS)SYRIAN CHILDREN CARRY HEAVY EMOTIONAL, SOCIAL, AND SPIRITUAL BURDENS ASSOCIATED WITH DEATH, SEPARATION FROM PARENTS AND/ OTHER FAMILY MEMBERS, SUFFERED INJURIES, MISSED YEARS OF SCHOOLING, WITNESSED UNSPEAKABLE VIOLENCE, BRUTALITY, VICTIMIZATION, DESTRUCTION OF HOMES AND COMMUNITIES, SEXUAL ASSAULT, ECONOMIC RUIN, AND DISRUPTION OF THE NORMAL PATTERNS OF LIVING.UMR'S PSYCHOSOCIAL SUPPORT (PSS) PROGRAM IS A WRAPAROUND PROGRAM FOR CHILDREN AND THEIR FAMILIES WHO ARE AFFECTED BY CONFLICT, IN WHICH WE EMPOWER REFUGEE WOMEN AND CHILDREN WITH COPING MECHANISMS TO MITIGATE TRAUMA. OUR TOOLS ALSO REALIZE AT THE IMPROVEMENT OF CRITICAL THINKING SKILLS AMONG CHILDREN, ESPECIALLY YOUNGER ONES, VIOLENCE REDUCTION AMONG PEERS, AND GREATER CONNECTIVITY AND COMFORT WITH THEIR HOST COMMUNITY AT LARGE. IN JORDAN, UMR'S PSS TEAM SUPPORTS CHILDREN BY LISTENING TO THEM, PROVIDING THEM WITH A SAFE SPACE AND ATMOSPHERE TO EXPRESS THEIR FEELINGS AND WORK THROUGH THE PAIN, CONSEQUENTLY, TRANSFORMING THEIR NEGATIVE EMOTIONS INTO SOMETHING PRODUCTIVE. IN 2019 ABOUT 1,400 PEOPLE BENEFITED FROM THE PROGRAM, WITH A MAJORITY OF CHILDREN (800) VIA AWARENESS SESSIONS.OTHER PROGRAMSWASH, SHELTERS, AND WINTERIZATIONWASHUMR IS PROUD TO COMPLETE A THREE-YEAR CAMPAIGN DEDICATED TO ENHANCING ACCESS TO CLEAN, FRESH WATER IN PAKISTAN, SOMALIA AND KENYA. WITH OUR TRUSTED COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS SUCH AS THE TAKHLEEQ FOUNDATION, BASED IN KARACHI, PAKISTAN, UMR FUNDED THE CONSTRUCTION OF HAND PUMPS AND DEEP WATER WELLS.SOMALIA AND SOMALILAND REGIONS HAVE BEEN SUFFERING FROM PERSISTENT DROUGHT, LEAVING MOST COMMUNITIES UNABLE TO DRINK CLEAN WATER OR REBUILD LIVESTOCK HERDS. UMR PRIORITIZED FOUR VILLAGES IN SOMALI LAND AWDAL AND LOWER SHABELLE BASED ON AN ASSESSMENT OF THEIR AND LIVESTOCK NEEDS FOR CLEAN DRINKABLE WATER. THE TWO REGIONS RECEIVE UMR'S UTMOST ATTENTION BECAUSE 55% OF THE SOMALI LAND AWDAL REGION RECURRENTLY FALLS INTO IPC (INTEGRATED FOOD SECURITY PHASE CLASSIFICATION) PHASE 2 "STRESSED OR HIGHER LEVEL OF FOOD INSECURITY, WHEREAS THE SHABELLEVALLEY REGIONS SUFFER FROM THE DOUBLE IMPACT OF LACK OF RAINS AND A DRYING RIVER. TOTAL NUMBER OF BENEFITING FAMILIES IS ESTIMATED TO BE ABOUT 1,039 OR APPROXIMATELY 6,234 INDIVIDUALS. TOGETHER WITH THEIR LIVESTOCK, NOW THEY GET CLEAN WATER.PAKISTAN COULD "RUN DRY" BY 2025 AS ITS WATER SHORTAGE IS REACHING AN ALARMING LEVEL. ALSO, DESPITE THE ACCESS OF 91% TO IMPROVED WATER SOURCES, 88% OF THE WATER SUPPLIED IS UNSAFE. WITH OUR VALUED PARTNER TAKHLEEQ FOUNDATION, UMR INSTALLED DEEP HAND PUMPS (WATER WELLS) USING THE ENHANCED ACCESS TO SAFE DRINKING WATER (EASD) SYSTEM TO SUPPLY CLEAN DRINKING WATER IN THE DISTRICT THATTA SINDH. UMR PRIORITIZED THIRTY POTENTIAL LOCATIONS FOR THE HAND PUMPS ON THE BASIS OF NEED AND POVERTY, BUT DUE TO THE LIMITED FUNDS, WE HAD TO MAKE THE DIFFICULT DECISION TO INSTALL IN ONLY 13 LOCATIONS SERVING 7,750 PEOPLE, SHORTLISTED THROUGH PARTICIPATORY DECISION-MAKING WITH THE LOCAL COMMUNITY W A S HIN KENYA, GARISSA COUNTY, WHICH IS LARGELY POPULATED WITH SOMALI REFUGEES, IS CHRONICALLY FOOD INSECURE. POOR COMMUNITIES LIVE ALTERNATING BETWEEN RECURRING DROUGHTS AND EXCESSIVE RAINFALL CAUSING FLOODING AND MUDSLIDES. IN 2019 ALONE, THESE CLIMATIC EVENTS CAUSED THE DISPLACEMENT OF 30,000 INDIVIDUALS AND OVER 26,000 LIVESTOCK DEATHS. UMR BUILT FIVE SHALLOW WELLS TO SERVE 945 HOUSEHOLDS (5,198 INDIVIDUALS) IN BAKUYU, BAKUYU DAIRY, MILIMANI VILLAGE, ZIWANI, AND ZIWANI MOSQUE AREAS, IN ORDER TO BOOST LEVELS OF FOOD SECURITY OF BOTH THE HOST AND REFUGEE COMMUNITIES.WINTERIZATION: DURING THE WINTER 2019, UMR JORDAN RESPONDED TO EXTREME WEATHER EMERGENCY BY SUPPLYING WINTERIZATION KITS TO 25,113 PEOPLE, INCLUDING SYRIAN REFUGEES IN BAQA CAMP (AMMAN) AND MOST VULNERABLE FAMILIES AS DESIGNATED BY JORDAN'S MINISTRY OF SOCIAL DEVELOPMENT (MOSD) IN ZARQA, JERASH, IRBID, AND IN OTHER GOVERNORATES. THE WINTERIZATION CAMPAIGN INCLUDED COMPONENTS SUCH AS DISTRIBUTIONS OF FUEL VOUCHERS WITH SLIDING AMOUNTS PER FAMILY SIZE, CLOTHING VOUCHERS FOR FAMILIES AND ESPECIALLY FOR CHILDREN IN ORDER TO DIGNIFY THEIR FREEDOM OF CHOICE; AND, FINALLY, GIFTS-IN-KIND SUCH AS JACKETS, BLANKETS, HEATERS, BEDDING ITEMS (PILLOWS, COMFORTERS, ETC.).SHELTERS:SUDAN EXPERIENCED CONSTANT TENSION BETWEEN MILITARY, THE CIVILIANS AND THE PROTESTORS. DEATHS AND VIOLENCE IN KHARTOUM HAVE BEEN FREQUENT AND THE NEGOTIATIONS FOR A TRANSITIONAL APPEAR TO HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO FALL APART AT ANY MOMENT. WHILE THAT WAS THE CASE IN THE CAPITAL CITY, KHARTOUM, SITUATION IN OTHER PARTS OF THE COUNTRY WERE ALSO TENSE. IN MAY 2019, SOME REGRETTABLE EVENTS TOOK PLACE BETWEEN TWO GROUPS IN ALGADARIF CITY (TWO DIFFERENT CLANS) WHERE INNOCENT PEOPLE WERE KILLED IN ADDITION TO A LARGE NUMBER OF HUTS/SHELTERS (ABOUT 250), SHOPS AND MARKETS WERE BURNT DOWN. THIS RESULTED IN MANY FAMILIES ENDING UP HOMELESS. OUR LOCAL PARTNERS RECEIVED FREQUENT REQUESTS FROM THE COMMUNITY AND LOCAL ELDERS TO INTERVENE THE SITUATION. RECONSTRUCTION OF THE SHELTER WAS THE MAIN PRIORITY OF THE COMMUNITY PARTLY TO RESOLVE THE CONFLICT AND MAINLY TO ENABLE THE VICTIMS GO BACK TO THEIR NORMAL LIVES. IF SUCH TRIBAL CONFLICTS AREN'T INTERVENED IN AT AN EARLY STAGE IT CAN AGGRAVATE TO A MORE COMPLICATED ONE, THAT CAN LEAD TO THE DEATH OF HUNDREDS OF INNOCENT CIVILIANS, OUTBREAK OF DISEASES, DISPLACEMENTS, ETC. UMR PARTNERED WITH OUR LOCAL PARTNERS TO RESPOND IMMEDIATELY AND CONSTRUCT 27 HOUSES IN ALMAWRADA (BADOOBA) AND DAR ALNAEEM ZONES, RESPECTIVELY.THE SHELTERS WERE PREPARED FOR THOSE UNABLE TO BUILD FOR THEMSELVES. THE OVERALL GOAL OF THE PROJECT WAS TO HELP RESOLVE THE CONFLICT AND SUPPORT THOSE MOSTLY AFFECTED BY REBUILDING THEIR FAMILY SHELTERS.
