In the event that cluster proposals to CERF are unsuccessful, revised submissions which better articulate the rationale for education as a life-saving and lifesustaining intervention can be re-submitted to the CERF Secretariat. 8.2.6 Other funding sources Emergency or Humanitarian Response Fund The Emergency Response Fund (ERF) is managed by OCHA through the HC/RC. It involves multiple donors and aims to provide rapid, flexible, small-scale funding to: � address gaps in the CAP for humanitarian aid � enable the scale-up of response and recovery interventions, particularly by international and national NGOs that are not eligible for direct funding through the CERF. Further details can be found at: http://ochaonline.un.org/FundingFinance/ResponseFunds/tabid/4404/Default.asp x Common Humanitarian Fund The Common Humanitarian Fund (CHF) is managed through OCHA and a management agent in-country. It involves multiple donors providing early, strategic and predictable funding to priority needs as identified in the CAP. Used primarily in complex and protracted crises, these funds require a reasonable number of donors and a long-term commitment. Three funds were established in 2008 in Sudan, Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) and Central African Republic (CAR). Both the Emergency Response Fund and Common Humanitarian Fund have education components. Multi-Donor Trust Fund The Multi Donor Trust Fund (MDTF) is a mechanism through which donors pool their resources, with the intention of supporting national humanitarian, recovery, reconstruction and development priorities. They are a useful additional source of funding after the acute response stage and help to reduce the burden of seeking, and reporting on, funding from multiple sources. The funds are managed through an administrative agent such as the UN Development Programme (UNDP), and the nature and requirements for funding are determined by the individual country context and programme or project objectives. Further details can be found on the UNDP website at: http://www.undp.org/mdtf/trustfunds.shtml 268 | May 2010
Traditional donors Advocacy and resource mobilisation The cluster provides a useful platform for cluster partners to develop collaborative proposals for their traditional bilateral donors. Many donors encourage collective or consortia bids, particularly those that demonstrate partnerships with national authorities and local organisations. In addition, UNICEF, Save the Children and other agencies have resources that can be reprogrammed in the event of an emergency to provide immediate financial assistance to support national and local authorities and the education sector in education response, recovery, preparedness, and disaster risk reduction efforts.
