Area-Based-Allocation: Provision of Life-saving WASH interventions for the crisis-affected population in Nyala South and North in South Darfur State. ltpgtltbrgtIAS/LM International, with it is partner Rural Development Organization (RDO), is providing Emergency Life-saving WASH services for vulnerable IDPs, Returnees, and Host Communities affected by the crisis in Nyala South and North of South Darfur State -Sudan.ltbrgtThis planned 8-month project will contribute to saving lives and providing basic services to some of the most needy and vulnerable populations in Nyala South and North in South Darfur State -Sudan.ltbrgtThe specific objective of the project is to mitigate disease transmission and address environmental health risks by facilitating and providing access to safe, clean water supply and sanitation services, promoting basic hygiene practices and hygiene awareness to 16,500 affected populations (3,629 women, 4,308 girls, 3,300 men and 5,263 boys), resulting in a reduction of waterborne diseases and death, and optimizing facility utilization for Internally Displaced People (IDPs), Returnees, and host communities affected by conflict Nyala South and North in South Darfur State –Sudan.ltbrgtThe Emergency WASH interventions will prioritize providing sustainable, clean drinking water sources to the largest number of beneficiaries. This will be done through MWY and hand pump rehabilitation. The long-term sustainability of these water points will be enhanced through comprehensive training for water committees for each water point, as well as the provision of repair tool kits for the hand pumps. Additional clean water supply will be achieved through the provision of chlorination services to 3 MWYs, in addition to the distribution of Jerry Cans and Chlorine to the targeted affected households. Hygiene and sanitation gaps will be addressed through hygiene awareness campaigns, public latrine rehabilitation with the construction of Mobile handwashing facilities, cleaning up campaigns with the distribution of cleaning tools campaigns, and the distribution of hygiene kits to the most vulnerable refugee households.ltbrgtEffective emergency WASH interventions are crucial for the vulnerable IDPs, Returnees, and Host Communities affected by the crisis in Nyala South and North of South Darfur State to mitigate the transmission of fecal-oral and vector-borne diseases, reduce environmental health risks, and ensure the optimal utilization of provided facilities. The proposed emergency WASH intervention will be significant in addressing the needs identified through the Needs Assessments carried out by IAS/LM and in coordination with humanitarian organizations on the ground, relevant line ministries, and all the relevant stakeholders.ltbrgtThe project is designed to incorporate conflict sensitivity dynamics aspects, by identifying the Ethnic and Tribal, Competition Over Resources, Marginalization and Inequality, Historical Grievances risks and drivers, opportunities for Social Cohesion, and designing adaptive proposed WASH response for the targeted communities of Nyala- south Darfur state. ltbrgtA conflict sensitivity document for the proposed response in South Darfur- Nyala locality is uploaded in the document tab in addition to the conflict sensitivity focal point details.ltbrgtlt/pgt
