  1. Integration and Mainstreaming using CAFOD’s Vulnerability and Inequality Analysis Tool Georgia Burford HIV Strategy Manager

  2. Understanding vulnerabilities and inequalities Access to water Access to water No access to water

  3. The Vulnerability and Inequality Analysis Tool - Analysis Protection Are interventions enhancing protection issues or creating new ones? Participation Are all community members able to participate? Analysis Power Are plans reinforcing or creating unequal power relations? Priority Groups Are we focussing on who we should include?

  4. The Vulnerability and Inequality Analysis Tool - Adjustment Protection Ensure pumps are well lit and close to households Participation Ensure pumps are accessible; no steps, easy to use; address stigma Adjustment Power Ensure women, men of all ages and PLHIV in decision making committees Priority Groups Women, girls, PLHIV, elderly, people with disabilities

  5. Mainstreaming and Integration Reduce HIV-related stigma through community education to reduce misconceptions around HIV transmission and improve participation • Mainstreaming Approach • Integrated Approach • Adding a component that requires resources and monitoring • Modifying aspects to project to ensure they do no harm and exacerbate vulnerabilities Reduce vulnerability to physical or sexual violence by improving lighting and security to improve protection

  6. Examples from our programmes - Cambodia Context • Area vulnerable to flooding thus contamination of water sources • Low general epidemic, high amongst key populations Aim • Build community resilience to issues of climate change and low access to WASH in Battambang and Siem Reap • Adaptations: • Community awareness training on practicing hygiene and sanitation and importance for PLHIV • Water filter containers prioritised for most marginalised and vulnerable households • Meetings held with men and women to identify gender specific challenges in water access, use, sanitation

  7. Examples from our programmes - Zimbabwe Context of Hwange District • Poor access to safe water • High HIV prevalence rate Aim • Enhance rural water supply, sanitation and hygiene Adaptations • Community education on WASH included households of PLHIV and affected by HIV • New pit latrines locations consider households of PLHIV and affected by HIV • Near water pumps, nutritional gardens established for PLHIV

  8. Understanding vulnerabilities and inequalities Access to water and sanitation Improved hygiene awareness
