Annex 6. Body ManagementPlan for achieving objective Current Status and Actions UnderwayTrain & deploy sufficient safe burial teams across the country to conduct safe collection and burial.

Current status: 12 IFRC + 6 GC teams in Montserrado; A case investigator is imbedded with each Montserrado based team

48 GC supported teams across other counties plus additional 4 teams at the National Cemetery giving a total of 52 GC teams (Outside Montserrado).

91% body pickup within 24 hours in Montserrado and 92% response rate across the other 14 counties.

Ensure adequate supplies and storage facilities for body management teams through dedicated warehouse.

19th street warehouses now operational.

Develop sufficient crematorium and burial capacity

National Cemetery open and operational. As of 12/30, 57 burials total at the National Cemetery since opening on the Dec. 24, 2014. Social Mobilization ongoing. National stakeholders forum planned for Saturday, January 3rd.

Undertake actions (e.g. testing, identification etc) to ensure all collections and burials are happening safely.

Swabs collected by IFRC and GC teams but feedback is a problem. CDC has developed draft guidance but the final feedback and communication strategy to be agreed upon. GC teams trained in swab testing and will support in all counties, including transportation of swabs to appropriate laboratories for testing.

Annex 10a: WASH for EbolaDate updated: 30/12

Operational Constraints According to financial reports submitted by WASH partners to the cluster as of 12th December, only 12.3 million dollars has been received

for the EVD response against a cluster need of 85 million, leaving a gap of 72.5 million requirement. There is a need to reinforce the subnational coordination at county level to increase the response capacity to the new affected

communities and ensure the implementation of the integrated WASH national package per county, including the restoring of basic services.

Operation and maintenance of WASH facilities in Ebola Care Center including solid infected waste management sludge treatment, monitoring of WASH services, testing chlorine concentration is a challenge for the cluster to organize with the support of partners especially concerned departments in Monrovia and country administration in each county.

Assessment and provision of WASH facilities in Health Centers to support the essential health services in the country and ensure that Infection Prevention and Control procedures can be implemented safely. This will support also the rapid response mechanisms.

Solid Infectious Waste Management projects in urban and rural areas, to ensure that waste is handling safely until its final disposal. Assessment and provision of WASH facilities in schools to support the reopening of the school when happening. Ensure that the WASH services provided by actors met WASH minimum requirement.

Annex 11. Finance & Donation coordinationPlan for achieving objective Current Status and Actions UnderwayCommunicate the role of donations coordination to potential donors & establish information & donation point. Currently several donations are made outside the structure and information is not always shared with the donations coordination team

• To hold a public service announcement with information on where and how to make donations

• Need for a comprehensive list of immediate needs to share with potential donors• Need for a dedicated website for the National Ebola Command Center to facilitate

dissemination of donations information• There are currently two separate accounts for donations (Ebola Trust Fund and MoHSW

Ebola Account).

Collate and communicate relevant information (transport, duty and fees) to potential donors

• Ad hoc submission of various requests from different agencies/organizations for duty waivers, airport handling fees and transportation from airport.

• Relationship with Liberia Revenue Authority (LRA) established to expedite duty waivers. • The new organization of the logistics cluster will address other challenges.

Collect, compile and report donation information to relevant stakeholders

Donation database currently updated on a daily basis. Reports are produced weekly. Meeting with Ministries of Finance & Development Planning and Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Ministry of Health and Social Welfare to reconcile and harmonize donations.

Annex 12. Food security

Graph of key indicator e.g. food/ commodity prices to be added

Objectives Current Status / Actions Required / Issues to be escalatedProvision of Food to affected people

• WFP delivered food to 37,700 beneficiaries in five counties in the last two weeks: Grand Cape Mount, Lofa, Maryland, Nimba and Sinoe. Since August, WFP has provided support to care for more than 200 patients and survivors, to 15,000 isolated households and to 566,700 persons in areas of intense and widespread transmission. FAO Signed an agreement with African Development Corps (ADC) to implement the conditional cash transfer initiative with 20 women associations. Training of women associations in VSLA methodologies and governance.

Understand situation Joint Rapid Assessment at National level (MoA, WFP, FAO): The impact of EVD on Food Security is significant in most affected communities and special care should be given to them. EVD had a huge impact on rural economy through the closure of boarders and markets. Saving and loans schemes were affected as well as trading, the second source of income for 73% of affected population.

Current needs / challenges

• Continued food and livelihoods assistance for people affected by EVD;• Limited inclusion of local cassava products (gari) in food aid support to ebola affected patients and hhs• Need to revitalise Village Savings and Loans Associations (mostly Women) through injection of cash• Need Balance between longer-term food/economic security interventions and ebola-related food actions

Current status of Ebola impact and potential risks

From WFP VAM Nov 2014 “Special Focus Ebola”: • Estimate current 480,000 food-insecure people in Liberia with Ebola-driven accounting for 80,000. • Predict under Low Ebola Scenario * number of Ebola-driven food-insecure people rises to 380,000 by March 2015 (and total of 840,000).• Would see food security worsening in Gbarpolu, Bong, Margibi and Grand Cape Mount in particular. *disease continues to spread at the average rate observed in the previous 42 days and then begins to slow down by January 2015

Annex 14. Development Projects

Current status Actions Required & by whom?

RIA runway: project delayed (6 months?) as not confident quality companies will tender for the contract now

Need to identify criteria required for contractors, consultants to return to sites.

Some indicators include:- lifting of the State of Emergency, - resumption of service of more than one

international airline- positive assessment of healthcare risks (e.g. an

acceptable hospital is Ebola free and able to treat non-Ebola emergencies)

- reduction of the new cases rate to an acceptable percentage of peak (if not 0 new cases),

Mount Coffee: on-site construction works suspended until Ebola situation under control; manufacturing, procurement, and other project management activities continue as plannedHFO (JICA, WB, GoL): all stalled no work ongoing. Risk of 1 year delayRed light to Gbarnga road: Contractors have envoked force majeure. Risk of loss of dry season and one year delayFish Town to Harper: Progress has been ongoing to enable works to begin without major further delayFeasibility study for Ganta – Tappita: cannot tender for consultant as quality companies will not bid in current circumstancesAgriculture: ?

What is the impact of ebola on major development projects? Which major projects have been critically impacted?

Most of the crucial development projects have stalled – potential major impact and losing dry season. Contractors and supervising engineers have pulled out. Required financing from GoL budget is at risk due to forecast Budget shortfall.

Updated: 27/11

Annex 15. Immediate economic issues

Specific Objectives to mitigate impact Current Status and Actions Required & by whom?The Ebola Private Sector Management Group (EPMSG) are developing a private sector engagement plan that will identify their strengths and abilities as implementing partners for the Ministry of Finance and Development Planning’s Economic Stabilization and Recovery Plan.

Ministry of Finance and Development Planning are consolidating the Economic Stabilisation and Recovery Plan into a project by project synopsis and lining up potential partners.

Six NGOs and UN agencies have initiated a national social-safety net programme that is led by the Ministry of Gender, Children and Social Protection. Initial ideas and geographic coverage have been proposed and the Ministry and UNDP (co-chair) will evolve the plan. There is strong donor interest.

Final mapping of initial proposals needs to be completed to provide an initial picture of social safety net coverage for Liberia in 2015 and how it links into re-investment and livelihoods opportunities for sustainability.

The World Bank has confirmed the its interest in supporting social safety net programmes. USAID has also shown significant interest. Both agencies are keeping in close contact with the Ministry and UNDP as the co-chair of the Technical Working Group on Social Safety Net Cash Transfers.

The banking infrastructure and mechanisms for making payments is under stress. UNDP is working with the banks and mobile money networks to help them function better in areas outside Monrovia. Longer-term interventions will be needed to overcome the problems that are faced, but some quick fixes may be possible. UNDP is engaged with USAID, NetHope and others that have had this issue on the radar for some years.

What is the status of most critical impacts on the economy from the ebola crisis (e.g. concession operations, investment, cross-border trade, government finances etc)

- Current growth rate projects are down to 1% (initial estimate of 8.7% at the start of the year)- 17 percent increase in prices of essential commodities on year on year basis. - Tax revenues expected to contract by 19%- Hardest hit relating to the labor market: agriculture, fisheries, mining- Montserrado, Grand Kru, Sinoe, and Maryland are the most economically impacted counties according to UNMIL data.- There is a disproportionate number of women affected by the loss of livelihoods according to Liberia’s Association of

Marketers- Overall, Ebola is driving communities into higher levels of poverty

Updated: Dec. 11, 2014

Annex 16. Education

Objectives to mitigate impact Current Status and Actions Required to & by whom?Strengthen epidemic preparedness and response measures in all schools and communities in 98 Education Districts

•Completed Ebola Prevention training for 15 CEOs, 98 District Education Officers, 6600 School Principals and Teachers; •Completed Awareness in 98 Education Districts by 6600 teachers (each teacher reached over 100 households) over 2 million persons were reached•Mobilizing resources for the following: (no committed funded yet) a. payment of teachers for community awareness process b. to conduct additional trainings for up to 6000 teachers and principals c. to assist communities establish Ebola Prevention Structures d. to conduct psycho-social counseling in communities

Prepare students & teachers to resume regular schooling

•Modules for the airing of radio programs developed•Programs are being aired on National Radio Stations •Mobilizing resources to engage private & community radios for airing of programs in all counties

Improve Physical learning environment to prevent the spread of EVD and other diseases

•Received support from GoL for minor renovation of 500 schools in 15 counties starting December•Mobilizing resources to: (no committed funded yet) a. renovate additional 1500 schools in 15 counties; b. clean and disinfect school environment nationwide; c. rehabilitate / construct WASH facilities where needed; d. chlorinate 25,000 wells and hand pumps on school premises and ; e. establish hand washing facilities in all schools

What is the impact of school closures?Increase in young children involved in street selling; teen age pregnancy; over aged students; child laborExtreme hardship on private schools teachers due to no salary; condition of school facilities are deterioratingUnavailability of resources for text books, establishment of laboratories, libraries and other items to promote learning The situation may likely have considerable impact on quality and performance of school administrator

Annex 17A. ETU Threat Assessment

• Violence targeting ETU/CCC is extremely low. Most agitation comes when family

members are seeking information about their loved one in the facility and the

personnel fail to provide an update. As long as facilities are briefing the family

members on the condition of their family member, tensions should remain low.

• Recent demand for dignified burial for victims. Many in the community have expressed

concern over cremating the remains and not having a place to go, nor grieve. Reports

of affluent members of the community successfully retrieving their loved ones and

taking their remains from the facilities to a burial site.

• Petty crimes and theft are expected around the facilities like any other location.

Update: 5/12

Annex 17B. Security Assessment

• The overall security situation in Liberia remains calm but fragile.

• The border situation with Cote-d’Ivoire (CDI) remains calm. The Government of Liberia

(GoL) issued a directive to close all Border Crossing Points (BCP) to contain the Ebola

outbreak until further notice.

• Cancellation of the State of Emergency, markets are reopened in Liberia and the

curfew is midnight to 0600 local.

• The National Election Committee (NEC) submitted a recommendation for Senatorial

Election to be held December 16, 2014 and the date was approved.

• Civilian education began on 17 Nov 14 and campaigning started on 20 Nov 14 and will

continue until 15 Dec 14 (24 hours prior to the election).
