Education and WASH integrated response to increase winter resilience and early recovery of underserved communities in Aleppo and Deir-Ez-Zor (Sub-Objective 2) ltpgtltspangtIn line with the Sub-objective 2 of SHF 1lt/spangtltsupgtstlt/supgtltspangt
Standard Allocation Strategy of 2023, WW-GVC aims to carry out a multi-sector
integrated intervention primarily focused on the Education and WASH sectors in
Aleppo and Deir Ez Zor enhancing the resilience of communities to winter
conditions sustaining access to critical basic services. Protection, AAP, GBV
and PSEA prevention, and community engagement will be key cross-cutting
approaches throughout the whole action.lt/spangtltbrgtlt/pgt

ltpgtltspangtWW-GVC will deliver critical lifesaving and
life-sustaining humanitarian assistance with a long-term resilience-building
approach empowering the targeted communities to meet their basic needs
autonomously. The project will reach a total of 34,230 unique beneficiaries (18,057
Females, 16,173 Males) targeted by both sectors. In summary, the project will:lt/spangtlt/pgt

ltpgtltspangtUnder Education: under two outcomes, the project will
increase safe and inclusive access to education as well as improve the quality
of education services in rural underserved areas of Aleppo and Deir Ez Zor.
Under Access, this will be achieved through the light rehabilitation and
winterization of 52 classrooms with their respective gender and disability
sensitive WASH facilities, provision of solar powered systems as well as school
furniture, and provision of transportation allowance to 124 teachers. While
under Quality, the project will conduct community engagement activities,
support the professional development of 100 teachers to enhance protective and
inclusive teaching practices and provide m th teaching and learning material,
activate Non-formal education programs (remedial classes) to 700lt/spangtltspangt lt/spangtltspangtChildren, and provide
then with learning material. The Education result will therefore reach a total
of 124 teachers (62 Females, 62 Males) and 3,400 children (1,700 girls, 1,700
boys).lt/spangtltspangtlt/spangtlt/pgt

ltpgtltspangtUnder WASH: The project will improve access to safe,
reliable, and sustainable WASH services for the same targeted communities under
the Education component, ensuring access to water not only to the communities,
but also to the schools, therefore promoting a safe learning environment. This
will be achieved through the repair/restoring efficient functionality of
Maskana Pumping station in Aleppo, in addition to the rehabilitation and/or
decentralized repair of four water networks across both governorates. In total,
34,230 total beneficiaries (18,057 Females, 16,173 Males) will be directly
reached, while 28,500 beneficiaries will benefit indirectly.lt/spangtlt/pgt

ltpgtltspangtThe response under
both sectors will be complementary in the same priority locations of the call
and reaching the same beneficiaries according to the needs. Additionally, the
proposed project intends to complement other interventions implemented by WW-GVC
and funded by ECHO, the Italian Agency of Development and Cooperation (AICS),
and other SHF-funded interventions, maximizing impact and resource mobilization
under WWGVC’s area-based approach. Moreover, projects carried out in a broad
range of sectors by other humanitarian actors in the same geographic areas will
also be complemented. The activities proposed are in line with the result of a
rapid and detailed needs assessment conducted by WWGVC in the targeted
locations (see Annex 1). The coordination with all relevant stakeholders
including MoE, MoWR, and both the WASH and Educations sectors was completed
during the proposal development and their endorsement of the proposal was
obtained. Further detailed technical and needs assessment will need to be conducted
during the kick-off phase of the project and after the obtainment of the
official approvals from the respective stakeholders once the funding is
confirmed.lt/spangtlt/pgt
