WOCCA TERMS OF REFERENCE - TOR

WOMEN AND CHILD CARE ORGANIZATION
TERMS OF REFERENCE
Background:
Women and Child Care Organization (WOCCA) is a non-governmental, non-political and non-profit making women and children’s organisation, established in 1996 by Somali professionals. Its main objective is to improve the economic status of women farmers who are widowed, divorced and struggling with life as the breadwinners for their households and protect the Rights of Children in the Middle Shabelle Region.
It has established itself as a reliable development organization in Middle Shabelle, Lower Shabelle, Hiraan and Banadir Regions of Somalia and has its main Offices in Mogadishu.
WOCCA is a signatory to the International Federation of the Red Cross/Crescent Code of
Conduct and is active member of various networks of non-governmental organizations in
Somalia that include South Central Somali Food Security Network (CESOFSN), Peace and
Human Rights Network (PHRN) Resource Based Conflict (RBC) and Natural Resources
Management Somali Network (RMSN).
WOCCA has prestige and image in the region. It has produced gender policy and cost sharing policy for stakeholders’ cooperation and satisfaction. Community involvement in project work was high during assessment, planning, implementation, monitoring and evaluation. These efforts achieved a substantial level of household food security for women headed households as the intended project beneficiaries.
Although there is the lack of basic health and education services, other international organizations like UNICEF are providing some sort of school facilities in rural communities and still are poor. WOCCA has not supported any provision of watering points for communities and livestock in the project area but has plans in the coming future.
Project support has been limited in terms of available financial resources and hence the numbers of beneficiaries in each project village and now WOCCA voluntarily provided capacity building training the community on early warning systems and disaster preparedness and response action through Community Managed Disaster Risk Reduction (CMDRR) approach.
