Practical Action - Sudan

Practical Action - The need for access to shelter

The majority of the inhabitants of Wau Nor and Kadugli in Kassala are living in inadequate shelters. The shelters poor construction and undesirable location has meant that they are frequently affected by floods, health hazards, fire and termites. Due to the poverty experienced by the inhabitants and the high cost of building materials there has not been any adequate alternative to their present situation. Also financial institutions are reluctant to offer long term loans to cover the building costs.

It was therefore decided that Practical Action would look to address these issues. As this project is not primarily technology based it was vitally important to address the most pressing challenges of housing affordability and housing finance. Construction of homes not only satisfies the vital need for shelter, it can also have the added benefit of stimulating the community’s micro economy.
Practical Action Housing Model
A participatory approach was used to reach a consensus on the agreed upon model which meant the design ideas were discussed thoroughly with community members, artisans, builders and local consultants to acquire endogenous knowledge from within the community. Experiences of national research institutes regarding housing alternatives were also consulted.
It was decided that a full house would be made up of two bedrooms, a kitchen with lobby and a veranda. A core house of two rooms can be considered as phase one and should cost just under half the amount of a full house. The project aimed to utilize locally available materials that best offer appropriateness and affordability.
After a thorough design review it was agreed that the foundations would be stone filled with mud mortar and the side walls built of mud bricks laid in mud mortar and rendered with low class red bricks. The walls would be plastered internally with clay and externally with sand cement mortar. A Ferro-cement vaulted roof was chosen over the traditional roof (baladi) as a cost analysis showed it to be 1.3 per meter sq cheaper. The doors and windows are to be made of steel angles and compared to corrugated iron sheets. The total cost of a full house was estimated to be 1,116,199 SD or US$5500 cost of other models.
The Self Help Approach
The self help approach is a mean of promoting a sustainable shelter delivery strategy for the IDPs at Wau Nor and Kadugli which can be adopted by national and local government. A Self Help Groups (SHG) that enables the poor to advocate and seek support with respect to shelter, land tenure, environment, income and employment. Was established to encourage a degree of financial self-sufficiency and good governance. Furthermore it should promote local knowledge and social capital encouraging the community towards a congenial housing scheme.
We agreed upon an innovative model known as Credit for Housing. This involved Practical Action initially funding the building of 17 houses. The beneficiaries who would be living in these new homes were expected to pay 30% up front with the remaining 70% to be paid in instalments over a period of 18 months. These repayments would be paid to the SHG who would then be able to use this money for the building of further homes. It was also decided that money from this SHG fund could be loaned for maintenance and housing improvements therefore benefiting the poorest of the poor who can not afford to buy a new home.
Results
The project to date is making good progress with 4 core houses and 1 full house completed (see picture). Further progress has seen the training of 21 builders. An additional benefit has been the relationship formed between the Sawa Sawa SHG for housing and Kadugli brick makers association. This involved the granting of a loan to the brick makers association for the production of low cost burned bricks which was repaid with 15% profit. This influenced the micro economics of the area as job opportunities were opened in the building sector.

International Poverty Day 2009

“Investments in children and the realization of their rights are among the most effective ways to eradicate poverty.”

World Poverty Day, 17 October 2009

In recognition of the upcoming 20th anniversary of the Convention on the Rights of the Child the 2009 observance of the International Day for the Eradication of Poverty focuses on the plight of children and families living in poverty and the need to fulfill children's rights in partnership with them and in keeping with the Convention.
Since the adoption of the Convention, there have been considerable advances around the world in securing children’s rights to survival, health and education. A better protective environment has been created to shield children from exploitation and abuse as well. Nevertheless, there is much to be done to create a world fit for children as “a brighter future for all children has proved elusive, and overall gains have fallen short of national obligations and international commitments”.
This year’s observance highlights the role of the convention in securing children’s rights, in particular the right to survival and full development, the right to protection from abuse and exploitation and the right to participation in family, cultural and social life. Participation also means that children have the right to express their opinions and have those opinions heard and acted upon when appropriate.
The observance will present an opportunity for children to speak out against poverty and dialogue with others. We will hear from children, young people, parents, and people working with them on their actions to implement policies which strengthen both children and their families in tackling poverty and exclusion.

Whipped for wearing a 'deceptive' bra..

Desperation: A woman feeds her child at a newly formed camp for refugees affected by drought in Somalia yesterday. Somalis are also contending with hardline Islamists seeking to impose a strict form of Sharia law on the country

A hardline Islamist group in Somalia has begun publicly whipping women for wearing bras that they claim violate Islam as they are 'deceptive'.

The insurgent group Al Shabaab has sent gunmen into the streets of Mogadishu to round up any women who appear to have a firm bust, residents claimed yesterday.
The women are then inspected to see if the firmness is natural, or if it is the result of wearing a bra.
If they are found wearing a bra, they are ordered to remove it and shake their breasts, residents said.

Al Shabaab, which seeks to impose a strict interpretation of Sharia law over all Somalia, also amputated a foot and a hand each from two young men accused of robbery earlier this month.

They have also banned movies, musical ringtones, dancing at wedding ceremonies and playing or watching soccer.
'Al Shabaab forced us to wear their type of full veil and now they order us to shake our breasts,' a resident, Halima, told Reuters, adding that her daughters had been whipped on Thursday.
'They are now saying that breasts should be firm naturally, or just flat.'
Officials of Al Shabaab, which Washington says is Al Qaeda's proxy in the failed Horn of Africa state, declined to comment.

The group's hardline interpretation of Islamic law has shocked many Somalis, who are traditionally moderate Muslims. Some residents, however, give the insurgents credit for restoring order to the regions under their control.
Al Shabaab, which means 'youth' in Arabic, control large swathes of south and central Somalia.
Abdullahi Hussein, a student in north Mogadishu, said his elder brother was thrown behind bars when he fought back a man who humiliated their sister by asking her to remove her bra.
'My brother was jailed after he wrestled with a man that had beaten my sister and forced her to remove her bra. He could not stand it,' Hussein said.
Men were not spared the' moral cleansing'. Any man caught without a beard was been publicly whipped.
'I was beaten and my hair was cut off with a pair of scissors in the street,' Hussein said.
'My trouser was also cut up to the knee. They accused me of shaving my beard but I am only 18.
'They have arrested dozens of men and women. You just find yourself being whipped by a masked man as soon as leave your house.'
