TERM OF REFERENCE
FINAL EVALUATION OF CMDRR PROJECT
CARITAS KEUSKUPAN SIBOLGA (CKS) - NIAS




1. PROJECT BACKGROUND

In the year 2007, CKS began with a pilot project of Community Managed Disaster
Risk Reduction (CMDRR) covering 3 communities. Positive experiences which CKS
gained through the implementation of a 18-month pilot project; subsequently
extended to a 2nd phase of the project expanding the process to another 14
communities through developing 3-year projectwith a period of 1st October 2008 –
31st October 2011. Altogether, the CMDRR project covers 17 communities. Among 17
communities addressing by the project 14 are located in Nias and 3 are in
Tapanuli Tengah; two of the 18 Regencies of North Sumatra province of Indonesia.
Among 17 communities 16 communities represents Christianity as majority
population while one represents 50% Christian and 50% Muslim population.
Communities of Nias and Tapanuli Tengah are frequently exposed with the natural
hazards. Climate change and its exposure of sea water level rise, increase of
temperature of ocean floor, changes of sea-web actions accentuated by other
factors such as rapid soil erosion, sedimentation of river and estuaries
altogether increasing the frequency of hazard occurrence in the area.

Major natural hazards affecting people are floods, landslides, land erosions.
Target population addressing by the project is extremely vulnerable. Lack of
food security, rudimentary physical communication infrastructure and lack of
access to market, inadequate employment and income, illiteracy, low health water
sanitation and nutrition status, gender discrimination, top down governance,
degradation of forests and other natural resources, are major causes of
vulnerability facing by the communities of Nias and Tapanuli Tengah. Another
critical vulnerability reason is Nias and Tapanuli Tengah both have separate
language than Bahasa Indonesia keeping its population away from accessing
education, media and news as the higher education systems and media are dominant
by the Bahasa language. Government support to disaster risk reduction and other
related development activities are extremely inadequate. After the Tsunami 2004
there were several international organizations and NGOs extended their hands of
cooperation to the communities for the relief and rehabilitation and now most of
them are departed after completion of their mission. Linking DRR and development
CKS’s CMDRR project is designed to attain following objectives:
