The Fundamental Principles of the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement
HUMANITY
The International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement, born of a desire to bring assistance without discrimination to the wounded on the battlefield, endeavours, in its international and national capacity, to prevent and alleviate human suffering wherever it may be found. Its purpose is to protect life and health and to ensure respect for the human being. It promotes mutual understanding, friendship, cooperation and lasting peace amongst all peoples.
INDEPENDENCE
The Movement is independent. The National Societies, while auxiliaries in the humanitarian services of their governments and subject to the laws of their respective countries, must always maintain their autonomy so that they may be able at all times to act in accordance with the principles of the Movement.
VOLUNTARY SERVICE
It is a voluntary relief movement not prompted in any manner by desire for gain.
IMPARTIALITY
The International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement makes no discrimination as to nationality, race, religious beliefs, class or political opinions. It endeavours to relieve the suffering of individuals, being guided solely by their needs, and to give priority to the most urgent cases of distress.
UNITY
There can be only one Red Cross or one Red Crescent Society in any one country. It must be open to all. It must carry on its humanitarian work throughout its territory.
NEUTRALITY
In order to continue to enjoy the confidence of all, the Movement may not take sides in hostilities or engage at any time in controversies of a political, racial, religious or ideological nature.
UNIVERSALITY
The International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement, in which all Societies have equal status and share equal responsibilities and duties in helping each other, is worldwide.

Foreword
The planet we live on can be unpredictable; earthquakes, volcanic eruptions and tsunamis can strike without warning, as we were starkly reminded earlier this year in Japan. Despite the best efforts of the international community, millions of people are affected by natural disasters every year and by the chaos and devastation that they leave in their wake. Since its establishment in 1863, the Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement has attempted to alleviate the suffering caused through conflict and natural disasters. National Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies, such as the Indonesian Red Cross and the Sri Lankan Red Cross Society, are at the forefront of disaster response activities; volunteers and staff responded immediately and provided life saving assistance in the hours, days and weeks after the Indian Ocean Tsunami struck. As the Irish representative of the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement, which comprises the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC), the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) and each countrys National Society, the Irish Red Cross has a responsibility to assist our partners when disaster strikes. Disasters can destroy infrastructure and the social fabric of a community in minutes, but the rebuilding of that community may take many years. The extent of the Indian Ocean Tsunami meant that following the immediate emergency response phase; there was a need for continued support and assistance. Working with our partner National Societies in the countries affected, the Irish Red Cross Tsunami Relief and Recovery Programme was developed as a multi-year response to the immediate and long-term needs of the communities worst affected in Indonesia, the Maldives and Sri Lanka.
As a direct result of the generosity of the Irish public, over a million people have benefited from the Irish Red Cross programmes. Schools and hospitals were reconstructed, clean water supplies re-established, homes rebuilt, livelihoods restored or revived and children supported on their return to education, while innovative communication initiatives promoted dialogue with the disaster affected communities enabling them to inform and engage in recovery efforts. Tens of thousands of families continue to directly benefit from the support provided by you as generous, donors to the Irish Red Cross, and we hope that this book provides an insight into the work we have undertaken on your behalf.

Introduction
Tsunami Noun (pl. same or mis) A long high sea wave caused by an earthquake, underwater landslide or other disturbance. Origin: late 19th century Japanese - from tsu harbour + nami wave
As a part of the largest humanitarian network in the world, the Red Cross Red Crescent Movement, the Irish Red Cross Society responded immediately to the disaster and launched an emergency appeal for the victims of the Tsunami on 27th December 2004. This appeal raised over e32 million thanks to the enormous generosity of many individuals, groups, schools, companies and their employees, and remains the largest amount ever raised by the Irish Red Cross for a single disaster. The dedication and strength of the Irish Red Cross membership network, and the Irish public, was clearly in evidence as the massive public appeal was rolled out in the first few weeks and months of 2005. The commitment shown through the range of events, donations and offers of support provided in solidarity with communities on the other side of the world so tragically hit by an unpredictable natural disaster, was humbling for all involved in the response. In the seven years that followed, the Irish Red Cross has had the privilege of working closely with our own membership across Ireland, and also with our colleagues in the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement. Key relationships and partnerships have been built with the communities affected as well as with Indonesian Red Cross (PMI), the Sri Lanka Red Cross Society, the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC), the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC), and numerous other National Societies including the German Red Cross, Canadian Red Cross, American Red Cross, Finnish Red Cross and the newly established Maldivian Red Crescent. During the period 2005 to 2011 the International Department of the Irish Red Cross grew substantially and at one point had over one hundred local national staff and twelve expatriate delegates working on Irish Red Cross projects in Sri Lanka, Indonesia and the Maldives. Through the development of our comprehensive 7-year Tsunami Relief and Recovery Programme for Indonesia, the Maldives and Sri Lanka, the Irish Red Cross was committed to ensuring that the trust placed in us by the Irish public through their donations to our Tsunami appeal was well placed. We hope to show through this Pictorial History of our Tsunami operations the range and breadth of work that has been undertaken and continues to take place with these donations, and how the generosity of the Irish public has had a direct benefit for communities which were so devastated on December 26th, 2004.
On 26th December 2004, a massive earthquake measuring 9.15 on the Richter scale struck off the coast of Sumatra, Indonesia. It was the most powerful earthquake the world had seen in a generation, releasing the equivalent energy of 23,000 Hiroshima bombs. The epicentre was some 150km south of the town of Meulaboh and 250km from Banda Aceh, the capital of Aceh Province, in northern Indonesia. The earthquake was particularly destructive as it originated close to the earths surface, some 30km below the floor of the Indian Ocean. The earthquake generated a massive tsunami wave that travelled rapidly through the Indian Ocean, striking beachfront areas in fourteen countries with catastrophic results in Indonesia, Thailand, Sri Lanka, the Maldives, India and Bangladesh, as well as other Asian and East African countries, killing more than 226,000 people across the region. The tsunami travelled at terrifying high speeds and 45 minutes after the earthquake it hit the Aceh coastline and within minutes had swept clean an 800km coastal strip of Aceh equivalent to the distance between Dublin and Paris. Nearly 166,000 people were killed in Indonesia alone, with nearly 600,000 of those surviving finding themselves homeless as their houses were swept away or left in ruins. The Tsunami caused unimaginable devastation and the scale of the damage to the local economies, infrastructure, and administration was unprecedented. In an instant, the livelihoods and security of hundreds of thousands of people all across the Indian Ocean, from Somalia to Malaysia, were ruined. Then, only three months later, another major earthquake struck the island of Nias also off the Indonesian coast, causing yet more death, injuries and destruction. The magnitude of these events triggered an amazing outpouring of compassion and generosity from around the world. Private citizens provided huge amounts of support, and donors pledged generously to help the survivors.

Background to the Tsunami

Sunday 26th December 2004 (all times local) 7.59am
A massive underwater earthquake strikes off the west coast of Indonesias Sumatra Island. The quake, the worlds biggest in four decades, lasts nearly 10 minutes, displacing billions of tonnes of water along a line of ocean trench as long as Italy. The 9.15-magnitude quake causes the entire planet to vibrate, releasing energy equivalent to 23,000 Hiroshima-type atomic bombs and triggering other earthquakes as far away as Alaska. AT 7.59AM Earthquake strikes off coast of Indonesia 9.15 on the Richter scale Lasts nearly 10 minutes As powerful as 23,000 Hiroshima bombs
10.01am
The Tsunami strikes Bangladesh, where two children die. Scientists attribute the relatively low death toll to a shallow seabed along the coast caused by natural sedimentation. Elsewhere the Tsunami hits, witnesses report the sea receding and exposing the ocean floor before the onslaught of the waves. They liken the sound of the Tsunami to the roar of freight trains. WITHIN THE THIRD HOUR Tsunami hits Bangladesh, killing two Country protected by Continental shelf
11.21am
Seismologists record a 7.1-magnitude aftershock. Ten minutes later the Tsunami hits the Maldives, killing 108 people. The waves surge across the low-lying island nation, completely inundating 73 of the 199 inhabited islands. For a period of time, Maldivians think their islands have sunk underwater. In Myanmar, 61 people die. WITHIN THE FOURTH HOUR 7.1-magnitude aftershock adds to panic Maldives completely inundated Dozens killed in Myanmar
8.15am
Waves as high as six-story buildings hit northern Sumatra and the city of Banda Aceh, ploughing inland for up to 3 kilometres. The disaster claims almost 166,000 lives in Indonesia. To the north, tidal waves slam into Indias Andaman and Nicobar islands. WITHIN FIRST HOUR 8.15am Tsunami hits west coast of Aceh province Waves up to 20 metres high 166,000 killed in Indonesia
9.45am
Waves travelling as fast as jet planes roar across the Indian Ocean. They slow down and gain height as they reach shallow water, striking the coasts of Sri Lanka, Thailand and mainland India. A combined 60,000 people will perish in those countries. WITHIN THE SECOND HOUR Waves reach speeds of 800 km per hour Tsunami strikes Sri Lanka, India and Thailand Kills a combined 60,000 people
12.30pm (and beyond)

The Tsunami sweeps into Malaysia, killing more than 70 people. On the other side of the Indian Ocean, waves roar towards Mauritius, Madagascar and East Africa. In the Seychelles, low-lying coastal roads are flooded. Along the coast of Somalia, more than 300 people die. FIFTH HOUR AND BEYOND Waves travel as far as East Africa More than 300 killed in Somalia

Destruction and Initial Response

The generous support of people in Ireland contributed to the immediate alleviation of suffering in the early days of the emergency response of the Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement. This generosity was used to support search and rescue operations and to provide food, water, shelter and medical assistance, essential, to survival in the immediate aftermath of a disaster.

The Response in Ireland

Public response: The global response to the horrific scenes which were broadcast around the world following the 2004 Indian Ocean Tsunami was unprecedented. No less so in Ireland, where there was a massive outpouring of support and sympathy for the countries affected, and people across the country reacted by offering their services to support the Irish Red Cross fundraising efforts. Staff and volunteers of the Irish Red Cross returned immediately to work from their Christmas holidays and were back at their desks by late afternoon on December 26th, only hours after the Tsunami had struck. Reflecting the unprecedented level of the public response, the Irish Red Cross received generous offers of support from people to help answer phones, distribute collection buckets and raise funds both in Head Office in Dublin and through our network of branches around the country. As teams of volunteers worked continuously in the days and weeks following the Tsunami, local businesses showed their support by providing free sandwiches and refreshments for the volunteers and staff, and local financial institutions provided experienced staff to assist in the secure handling of the massive amounts of cash being donated. In recognition of this true expression of the Red Cross Red Crescent principles of humanity and voluntary service, President Mary McAleese, and her family visited the Irish Red Cross Head Office on New Years Day 2005 to provide her own encouragement for the tireless work being undertaken by staff and volunteers. Civic leaders also provided support, including the then Lord Mayor of Dublin, Michael Conaghan, who kindly threw open the doors of the Mansion House to accept donations during the holiday period. Dublin City Council staff also accepted donations for the Tsunami appeal at their offices. Fundraising activities: Representatives of An Garda Sochna and Civil Defence were extremely active in the fundraising efforts, with the Garda save guarding Tsunami funds raised in pubs and restaurants around the country during the New Years festivities and representatives of the Civil Defence forces organising and holding numerous street collections. Irish Red Cross branch members organised numerous events to raise funds for the Irish Red Cross appeal, as well as supporting other local events being run to help Tsunami victims. All fundraising efforts were co-ordinated by the dedicated staff at Head Office in Merrion Square, Dublin. The nationwide fundraising campaign was generously supported by the business community which came out in force for the victims of the Tsunami, with many businesses simply donating funds from within their own resources, while others matched Euro-for-Euro the funds raised by their staff. On 7th January 2005, companies across Ireland supported employees who participated in the Irish Red Cross Work a Day for Free, with employers facilitating the donation to the Irish Red Cross of staff salaries for the day. Other innovative fund raising events undertaken by the business community included the Coolmore Stud organising an international auction for access to their 50 stallions in the United States, Ireland and Australia which raised more than 3.5 million for the International Red Cross Red Crescent response. Immediate support provided: To ease some of the immediate suffering caused by the devastation, on 28th December 2004 the Irish Red Cross donated e3 million to the Emergency Appeal of the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC). This funding was used to support the urgent recovery operations, through the provision of clean and safe water, emergency shelter and search and rescue activities. The bulk of the remaining e29 million raised was spent on both emergency and recovery projects over the next seven years. While the Irish Red Cross Tsunami response had scaled down significantly by early 2010, the organisation continues to be involved in longer term development projects in Sri Lanka, Indonesia and the Maldives.

Country information: Indonesia is the fourth most populous country in the world, with over 240 million people inhabiting 6,000 of the countrys 17,500 islands, which span over 6,500km. The majority of the population live on the The massive relief operation undertaken by the international community took place under extremely difficult conditions. Not only had the entire Province been devastated by the Tsunami, but access was incredibly challenging due to its remote location and the long running armed conflict between the Government and the Free Aceh Movement (GAM). The Tsunami operation in Aceh and Nias was one of the largest and most complex operations in the history of the Red Cross Red Crescent Movement. The Irish Red Cross provided immediate financial and personnel assistance to islands of Sumatra, Java, Kalimantan, Sulawesi and Papua. Indonesias location on the edges of the Pacific, Eurasian and Australian tectonic plates results in frequent and powerful earthquakes across the archipelago. Prior to 2004, the worst tsunami to hit Indonesia was in 1883 when Mount Krakatoa erupted, killing over 36,000 people. Impact of the Tsunami: The Province of Aceh in northern Sumatra was the worst-affected by the Tsunami, with the epicentre of the 9.15 earthquake striking underwater between Aceh and the island of Simeulue with the force our international Red Cross Movement partners. However, it quickly became apparent that the needs were so great that we had a responsibility to establish a presence on the ground to organise assistance directly. So, the Irish Red Cross undertook a series of critically important and innovative programmes covering education, beneficiary communications, water and sanitation, as well as emergency response to subsequent disasters such as earthquakes in Yogyakarta and Padang. During the five years that the Irish Red Cross had an office in Banda Aceh, over 100 people worked for us and, through our close connections with the local communities, Irish Red Cross staff and volunteers became a familiar and popular sight in Aceh. In December 2009 we formally closed our office in Banda Aceh. However, we handed over aspects of our work, and some staff to PMI through agreements to fund ongoing activities during 2010 and 2011 Irish Red Cross response: The Indonesian Red Cross (PMI) responded to ensure that the hard work and dedication of all the Irish Red Cross staff in Aceh continues to make an impact into the future. of 23,000 Hiroshima bombs.

Community Advocacy: Following a major natural disaster such as the 2004 Indian Ocean Tsunami, the need by disaster affected communities for accurate and reliable information is as fundamental as food, shelter and medical assistance. As over 300 international organisations arrived in Banda Aceh in early 2005, the Irish Red Cross realised that there was a need for detailed information on the recovery operation to be provided to the local communities. Various media such as newspapers, newsletters, bulletin boards and radio were used to ensure information about Red Cross programmes reached all levels of the affected communities.

Back-to-School Assistance: With so many people killed across Aceh, there was a real risk of a lost generation of children who had been traumatised by the Tsunami and had lost some or all of their family. Working closely with PMI, the Irish Red Cross developed a Secondary Education Cash Assistance Programme (SECAP) to provide cash assistance to vulnerable children so that they could return to school.

As well as cash grants, the SECAP programme developed life skills training, buddy support and mentoring for the children, and assistance for the non-formal education system. Support from PMI and the Banda Aceh authorities, including the Vice-Mayor of Banda Aceh Ms. Illiza SaAduddin Djamal (right) were instrumental in the success of the project. Top Right: The cash grants provided by the SECAP programme meant that students were able to buy shoes, uniforms and other school supplies, as well as cover the cost of transport to and from school. Without SECAP support, all these costs may have made it prohibitive for a student like Mahdia from Lamno, Aceh Jaya, to attend school.

School Construction: While many families were in need of assistance to ensure that their children were able to return to school, there was also a huge need to rebuild the physical infrastructure of the education system. Through partnership with the German Red Cross, the Irish Red Cross funded the construction of five schools on the remote island of Pulo Aceh and one school in Banda Aceh.

Temporary Living Shelters: The water and sanitation needs in Aceh Province following the Tsunami were massive. As temporary living shelters were established for the hundreds of thousands of people who had lost their homes, the Irish Red Cross developed an innovative approach to provide improved access to water and sanitation, through numerous small-scale activities to fill the gaps left by larger projects, including providing cleaning tools and improving drainage channels.

Community Based Projects: As homes were rebuilt, people moved out of the temporary living shelters. Continuing the community-led approach to water and sanitation, the Irish Red Cross worked directly with communities to identify their own needs, such as this project at Deah Mamplam in Aceh Besar District to improve access to clean water. Parallel to the physical infrastructure which was built, Irish Red Cross staff worked with communities to establish volunteer water and sanitation committees to maintain the water systems put in place and to promote good hygiene practices for the adults and children.

Yogyakarta Earthquake: Indonesia is located in one of the most active geological areas of the world, and earthquakes are unfortunately a common occurrence across the country. From our base in Banda Aceh, the Irish Red Cross was able to send staff and assistance following two such events. In May 2006, an earthquake measuring 6.3 on the Richter scale hit Yogyakarta on the island of Java and claimed more than 5,700 lives. Then in September and October 2009 two large earthquakes struck near to Padang on the island of Sumatra killing nearly 1,200 people and destroying over 250,000 houses.

Country information: The Maldives is a chain of more than 1,100 islands in Irish Red Cross response: Due to the large scale destruction of vital community infrastructure, the international Red Cross Red Crescent Movement undertook a co-ordinated approach to rebuilding, not just the houses which had been destroyed but also the community infrastructure and social networks which had been so severely impacted. The Irish Red Cross took an active part in this rebuilding through funding the construction of entirely new sewerage systems on three islands (Dh.Kudahuvadhoo, K.Maafushi and K.Guraidhoo). In partnership with the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC), the Irish Red Cross sewer system linked into an American Red Cross funded project aimed at upgrading and replacing household septic tanks on these three islands. By taking this co-ordinated Impact of the Tsunami: The Tsunami crashed into the low lying islands approach, the communities on the three islands have been ensured clean and safe water, and the natural environment has been improved dramatically as raw sewage is no longer being pumped into the surrounding waters. In addition to providing over e4.4 million in funding to the IFRC for this project, between 2005 and 2008, three Irish Red Cross Delegates were seconded to the IFRC to provide expert advice and assistance on construction, IT and communications related matters. The Irish Red Cross continues to be actively engaged in the Maldives, with an Irish Red Cross Delegate becoming the Head of Delegation for the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies. During 2011, Irish Red Cross is funding a three year project promoting cultures of non-violence and child protection in local communities in the Maldives. of the Maldives around 12 noon on 26th December 2004, completely inundating 73 of the 199 inhabited islands. While the loss of life was thankfully lower than in many surrounding countries, the waves swept across the island nation destroying homes, businesses and infrastructure and displacing a large proportion of the 300,000 inhabitants. Along with Indonesia and Sri Lanka, the Maldives was one of the countries worst affected by the Tsunami. It is estimated that the damage caused equated to over 60% of the countrys GDP and one in every ten persons was displaced translating to more people per capita than in any other affected country. the Indian Ocean, separated into 26 atolls with a land surface area of less than 300km2, making it one of the smallest and most disparate countries in the world. Situated off the tip of the Indian sub-continent, the Maldives lies about 700km south-west of Sri Lanka. While the Maldives is renowned for the beauty of its tropical islands, and is a popular holiday destination, life is dominated by the ocean and is extremely vulnerable to natural disasters. Most of the islands only stand 1.5m about sea level, so any change in sea conditions can have a massive impact on the life of the country. Recently, the threatened impact of climate change led the Maldivian Government to hold an underwater Cabinet meeting to highlight the potentially catastrophic impact of even a small increase in sea levels.

Community Sewerage Systems: The old system of sewage outfall on Maafushi Island (top left) pumped raw sewage straight into the sea. The Irish Red Cross funded sewage system was built to collect wastewater from houses and community buildings and discharge the effluent safely beyond the lagoon. This prevents pollution of the groundwater, and ensures disposal of wastewater in an environmentally safe manner, while also improving the health of the local populations who live and work so closely to the sea. Below: Maldives Environment and Water Minister, Ahmed Abdullah, and the International Federations Head of Delegation in the Maldives, Jerry Talbot, dig symbolic shovels into sandy soil to mark the start of construction of the community sewerage system on Maafushi Island in August 2006.

Despite being 99% water, and vulnerable to rising sea levels, the Maldives is chronically short of fresh water. People rely on rainwater and the limited groundwater trapped beneath the islands. However, the Tsunami ruined the groundwater supplies, so the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement developed a comprehensive water programme, including building 15 supplementary water systems on the islands in most need, and installed over 100,000 rainwater harvesting tanks. Left: Irish Red Cross staff members Michael Wardick and Joe Lowry at the groundbreaking ceremony to commemorate the start of work on the community sewerage system on Maafushi Island in August 2006.

The people of the Maldives are closely connected to the sea, and fishing is the life-blood for many families. Following the Tsunami, there was an urgent need to replace lost and damaged fishing boats and equipment, and was one of the key priorities for the Maldivian Government and humanitarian agencies.

Country information: Sri Lanka has always played an important strategic role in the Indian Ocean, and with 1,340km of coastline large portions of the country have a direct connection with the sea. Sri Lanka is a similar size to Ireland, but has a population five times larger at over 20 million inhabitants, many of whom live in coastal areas. For much of the past 30 years, the island was gripped by a vicious civil war between the Government and the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Elam (LTTE). Colombo: Massive displacement of people into the capital created a need to strengthen temporary and permanent facilities, such as shelters and schools. Kalutara: The Irish Red Cross built apartments for nearly 300 people and a school in Kalutara town, a maternity clinic in Panadura, and provided Impact of the Tsunami: Due to the shape of Sri Lanka and the way the assistance to over 1,000 people to restart their livelihoods. Ampara: Through innovative partnerships, such as the Galway-Sri Lanka Project, the Irish Red Cross helped to rebuild 250 homes, one hospital, a water supply and distribution system for over 6,000 people, a water supply network for the main District hospital and provided livelihoods assistance to over 8,000 people. Batticaloa: Through a co-ordinated approach to help rebuild Two key factors compounded the effects of the Tsunami in Sri Lanka. First of all, the wide extent of coastline hit meant that the relief effort had to cover an extremely large geographic area. Secondly, the civil war between the Government and the LTTE in the northern and eastern parts of the country was ongoing from the time of the Tsunami until mid-2009 making relief operations in those areas particularly difficult. Irish Red Cross response: The Red Cross appeal for Sri Lanka highlighted the urgent need to rebuild vital family and community infrastructure, from housing and health facilities to schools and livelihoods. Therefore, in partnership with the Sri Lanka Red Cross Society and the International Red Cross Red Crescent While the Irish Red Cross finalised its direct activities in Sri Lanka in June 2009, we continue to support the work of the Sri Lanka Red Cross Society and the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement through funding and provision of Irish Red Cross Delegates in Sri Lanka for our Red Cross partners. Massive humanitarian needs remain in the north of the country not only because of the Tsunami but also due to 30 years of conflict. The Irish Red Cross therefore continues to support these communities as they resettle back in their communities. communities, the Irish Red Cross built three hospitals, over 700 homes and provided livelihoods assistance to nearly 1,500 people. Tsunami spread out across the Indian Ocean, the waves hit not just the east coast but swirled around the top and bottom of the island. The destruction caused was particularly bad in the eastern Districts of Trincomalee, Batticaloa and Ampara, the western Districts of Galle and Kalutara, and the northern Districts of Jaffna and Mullaittivu. Movement, the Irish Red Cross undertook programmes in four of the Districts hit hardest by the Tsunami:

Schools Projects: Schools Projects: The Tsunami forced thousands of people to flee their homes in coastal provinces of Sri Lanka, and emergency shelters were set up in many schools, including around the capital Colombo, to provide immediate shortterm accommodation for those made homeless. Once more appropriate housing was found, many of these schools needed refurbishment work so students could return to their studies. In Colombo District, the Irish Red Cross repaired six schools and provided equipment such as desks, chairs and books for 5,000 students.

Panadura Maternity Clinic: Helping to improve the health services in Sri Lanka was one of the key priorities for the Red Cross Red Crescent Movement. Following an agreement in early 2005 between the Ministry of Health and the Red Cross Red Crescent Movement, the Irish Red Cross committed to rebuild health facilities in parts of the country worst affected by the Tsunami. In the town of Panadura, the local hospital provided only restricted services for mothers and children. Working with the medical staff, the Irish Red Cross constructed a dedicated maternity clinic for the hospital that will provide pre- and post-natal care for up to 10,000 women per year.
72
Skills Training: In addition to building homes in Kalutara for those displaced by the Tsunami, the Irish Red Cross implemented a range of skills training and economic activities programmes. Working with the local Kalutara Branch of the Sri Lanka Red Cross Society, the Irish Red Cross funded the development of a computer lab to provide skills training for local youths to assist them in obtaining employment. This was complemented by a programme for over 200 families to replace equipment they lost in the Tsunami. By providing sewing machines, bicycles, carpentry and masonry equipment, food production and cash grants for small-scale businesses, these families were able to earn money and get back onto their feet.

The Irish Red Cross established an extremely successful partnership with the Galway-Sri Lanka Project, which was formed following the Tsunami by a group of volunteers from Galway who all had experience working in Sri Lanka. As a result of excellent local knowledge, the Galway-Sri Lanka Project, led by Noel Coughlan and Savithri Senaratne, was able to complete the first permanent houses in Ampara District for Tsunami survivors. By the end of the multi-year partnership, the Irish Red Cross and Galway-Sri Lanka Project had assisted the communities of Karativu, Nindavur and Weeragoda to rebuild 250 houses, 5 pre-schools, 2 community centres and provided much needed economic assistance and training.

Pottuvil Water Project: Access to clean and safe water is a prerequisite for healthy communities. One of the deadliest and most insidious effects of the Tsunami was the contamination of groundwater and wells with seawater. So even if people had survived the Tsunami itself, because large sections of the countrys coastal regions were inundated with salt water, their sources of drinking water were destroyed. To help remedy this, after the initial emergency stage of the recovery operations, the Irish Red Cross developed several large-scale water and sanitation programmes to ensure that safe water was available for communities affected by the Tsunami. Irish Red Cross staff, including Wardell Eastwood (bottom left) and Nikhil Khanna (top left), successfully completed a project in Pottuvil which consisted of the construction of a 1,000m water tower, over 30km of distribution pipes and 1,000 household connections for a town of 6,000 people.

Vellavelli Livelihoods: To complement the rebuilding of physical infrastructure such as houses, hospitals and schools, in late 2007 the Irish Red Cross ran an extremely successful agricultural livelihoods project for ten villages in the Vellavelli Division of Ampara District. Over 8,500 people benefitted from improved rice and vegetable production, the cleaning of household wells for drinking and cooking, and small-scale cash grants for business activities. On a return visit to Vellavelli in April 2009 (right), the benefits to the local farmers were obvious as they re-sowed paddy in their fields, after having sold the excess portion of their previous harvest for profit to reinvest into their land and families.

Kallar District Hospital: This hospital in Batticaloa town was in a terrible state of repair when the Irish Red Cross first visited in early 2005. The impact of the Tsunami on the region was severe, but this was compounded by fighting between the Tamil Tigers and the Government. The Irish Red Cross worked in Batticaloa District throughout the conflict, but had to limit activities at various times to ensure the safety of staff. After a long and close relationship with the medical staff in Kallar Hospital, a new two-story, 80-bed hospital was built by the Irish Red Cross which included a paediatric ward, maternal health ward, doctors accommodation and the refurbishment of the old hospital.

Thanks to Donors
The Irish Red Cross would like to once again thank the thousands of individuals, staff, volunteers and Red Cross Branches across Ireland who so generously supported our Tsunami work by organising events, fundraisers and donating their time and expertise. Unfortunately, these donors are too numerous to list individually, but their support was and remains vital to the work of the Irish Red Cross in assisting the most vulnerable members of society, nationally and internationally. In addition to the countless individuals who provided support for the victims of the Tsunami in Indonesia, The Maldives and Sri Lanka, the Irish Red Cross would like to recognise again the overwhelming generosity from businesses and groups around the country immediately following the Tsunami.
