Response to vector borne diseases outbreak in Red Sea State In response to the outbreak of Chikungunya Virus (CHIKV) affecting the Eastern States of Sudan (Kassala, Red Sea and Gedarif) since end of May 2018, the Government of Sudan (Ministry of Health) supported by its key partners (UNICEF, and WHO) developed a comprehensive response plan to contain the situation. The plan is composed of main four pillars: surveillance, case management, communication for behavior change/health promotion, and vector control. These pillars are meant to reduce morbidity and mortality among the affected population by enhancing reporting, improving access to the standard case management, increasing community’s knowledge on the preventive measures of CHIKV, and interrupting virus transmission through vigorous indoor vector control activities.Through this project, UNICEF aims at supporting and sustaining the efforts exerted by the ministry of health (MoH) at both federal and state levels to contain the outbreak by providing high impact communication and social mobilization interventions to sensitize the public on CHIKV and promote for the required preventive behaviors. A total of 507,375 people (258761 female and 248614 male) will be directly targeted by this project including 106,964 children under-five years of age. Through this project, the three high burden states (Kassala, Red Sea and Gedarif) -with a special focus on Red Sea in which the outbreak is currently ongoing- will be covered with information on CHIKV fever’s signs and symptoms transmission mode and control of the vector’s breeding at the household’s and community’s levels. The project will be executed through behavior change communication and social mobilization campaigns via house to house visits and awareness sessions in the schools and community’s gathering places (markets, mosques, water facilities…etc) as well as mass media campaigns using mostly community and state radio. In addition to the behavior change, the project will facilitate case detection during home visits, and referral of suspected cases -specially for hard to reach population- from the community to the health facilities. Some of this fund will also be used to procure the essential health supplies (IMCI kits, PHC kits, LLITNS, ORS) needed for case-management at the facilities located in areas supported by UNICEF.
Improved Hygiene and Sanitation for South Sudanese Refugees in White Nile State The proposed project aims at addressing urgent basic WASH needs in the target areas including existing refugee camps and planned extension namely Dabat Bosin, Um Sangour, Khor Alwarel, Aljamia, Um Sangour extension, Alkashafa extension, Jourie extension in Al Salam and Aljabalein Localities in White Nile State. Basic WASH needs include adequate sanitation facilities such as Household/family latrines and gender-segregated institutional latrines for schools, poor hygiene and sanitation practices including hand-washing and open defecation as well as poor waste management and collection services.  Basic WASH needs have been identified through different assessments conducted by ADRA, UNHCR, WASH sector partners and are in line with the objectives of the Allocation Strategy, the HRP and the sectoral strategies. The project will benefit mainly vulnerable South Sudanese Refugees including women, men, boys and girls (especially primary school-age children). Host communities neighbouring the camps and extensions are going to benefit from an overall improvement of the hygiene and sanitation situation in the target areas reducing the likelihood of spreading of communicable and epidemic diseases. The project will adopt an integrated approach aimed at addressing gaps in terms of infrastructure/services/facilities as well as behavioural change activities aimed at promoting good hygiene and sanitation practices among the affected population. The project will adopt community-based approaches and engage beneficiaries through direct participation in designing, implementation and monitoring of project activities to ensure a higher degree of ownership and empowerment.

Enhancing Conducive Environment for Returnees and Host Community Members in Um Dukhum Locality- Phase II - Under Allocation Envelope 5 This project is a continuation and consolidation of the previous phase implemented since April 2017 in the Um Dukhum Locality in Central Darfur. It is linked to Project No: SUD-18/ER/118699 in OPS.  It aims to strengthen the resilience and self-reliance of returnees and vulnerable host community members and to facilitate durable solutions for displaced populations. Specifically, the project seeks to improve the enabling environment for peaceful coexistence in the local communities by strengthening community organizations and collective institutional capacities, ensuring social cohesion and reduction of tensions. It will establish community centres and strengthen community based conflict resolution mechanisms as well as restore provision of psycho-social services.  As the youth have been identified to be at particular risk but as well posses strong potential for peace, and often excluded from peace building and social cohesion processes, more innovation and creativity is being brought to bear under this project to ensure that these groups are supported and engaged. The project will therefore benefit from the recently launched UNDP's Innovation and Design Thinking activities within the locality and will enable the youth come up with innovative and locally sourced solutions to problems in  the targeted communities. The project is targeting 9,500 direct beneficiaries (18% men, 33% women, 29% boys and 20% girls) from 5 communities (Garaaya, Magan Beltibei under phase(I) and Soreah and Abu Jaradil  under Phase (II) all in the Umdukhun locality in Central Darfur State.
Provision of integrated WASH services to the protracted conflicted affected people living in Bielel Locality ( Envelope 2 ) The proposed 12-month project will focus on provision of high quality lifesaving and sustainable water supply, environmental services/ sanitation and hygiene promotion (WASH) interventions to the most vulnerable protracted IDPs in Kalma IDP Camp of Bielel locality , South Darfur state. The proposed intervention/response will reach 58,149 IDPs displaced by conflict and insecurity, currently living in Kalma IDP camp, in sectors 4A,4B, 8 and 9, as well as 2,100 of the most vulnerable host community members living in communities surrounding Kalma camp. The proposed WASH interventions will ensure reliable access to safe water supply, and improved gender-segregated sanitation facilities, promote good hygiene and better understanding of the key public health/ nutrition risks associated with inadequate  WASH, through integrated WASH, Health and Nutrition messaging conducive to reducing these risks. ARC will support operation and maintenance of eight motorized water systems and 10 hand pumps, using the community-based operation and maintenance (CBOampM) approach.  In addition, ARC will upgrade a one high yield borehole into a mini  water yard/ strategic water source, powered by hybrid systems combining the primary solar systems and the auxiliary diesel generator. In addition,  systematic water treatment, quality monitoring and surveillance will be implemented through community participation in management of the water safety plans for each water source. To improve the sanitation ARC with rehabilitate and construct new latrines from locally available materials..  ARC will take into consideration community input into design of latrines that ensure privacy, dignity and security of women and children and provide easy access for the pregnant women, elderly and people with disability,. An  integrated Health/ Nutrition and WASH messaging approach will be used in prevention and control of diarrheal diseases in combination with environmental cleaning campaigns, health education sessions (infection prevention of common illnesses), early identification and referral of diarrhea cases through the active case finding , and nutrition education on Infant and Young Child feeding. 

All proposed intervention will be implemented in close collaboration with local institutions/ line ministries and communities to ensure ownership, active community participation and sustainability
WASH and NFIs support for vulnerable communities in Abyei PCA Box (Envelope 2) At the moment there are 170,000 vulnerable people living in Abyei PCA Box. This project will target the norther part of Abyei where approximately 29,000 Misseriya residents are living, 35,000 Misseirya seasonal migrants settle during the migration season, and where around 7,500 South Sudanese displaced persons are reported to be settling. 
The aim of this project is to directly assist 12,000 Misseryia residents and 6,000 South Sudanese displaced persons in northern Abyei, by increasing access to safe water sources in five targeted locations where access to water is scarce and insufficiently covers both the residents and South Sudanese displaced persons. The WASH response will also include hygiene and clean-up campaigns, mainly targeting schools and health clinics, which will be implemented by Global Aid Hand (GAH). IOM will also distribute NFIs to the most vulnerable South Sudanese households in northern Abyei and will distribute 4,000 long-lasting insecticide mosquito nets (LLINs) for 2,000 households to respond to the sudden increase of reported malaria cases. The project will indirectly support Ngok Dinka communities and the on-going peace process, by ensuring that access to basic services is maintained during the southwards seasonal migration movement. This year, seasonal hafirs, upon which nomadic communities rely on for the livestock, are almost dry three months before the rainy season is set to begin, further exacerbating the critical need for water in the northern part of Abyei.The proposed activities will provide relief and recovery assistance to communities in the northern part of Abyei and will complement IOM’s on-going transition and recovery projects that aim to increase access to basic services and livelihood opportunities to support the socio-economic development of the area.
Health and Nutrition  response for newly accessible areas in Al Abbassiya, South Kordofan Ops Codes: SUD-18/H/116143/R (Health) and SUD-18/N/117119/R (Nutrition)

In response to the recent improvement in humanitarian access to western Alabassiya locality, CARE plans to address the life-saving Health and Nutrition needs highlighted by the Inter-Agency Rapid Needs Assessment conducted in February 2018.  As humanitarian access to the area opened only in late February 2017, following years of conflict, humanitarian and government presence is almost non-existent, leaving the population without access any basic services, most notably primary and reproductive healthcare and nutrition support. The majority of the population is women and children who have suffered multiple rounds of displacement and are in urgent need of lifesaving support.

CARE will provide an integrated preventive and curative health and nutrition response to 29,620 beneficiaries total: 6,618 IDPs and returnees and 17,019 affected host community members. Particular care will be taken to meet the needs of 4,502 children under the age of five and 1,481 pregnant and lactating women.  The estimated nutrition caseload for children is 1173 (411 SAM, 762 MAM) and 200 PLW.

The project will operate from four target villages (Kumsoro, Kalinda, Banat and Tabasa) to provide primary healthcare, maternal and child health, and 3 OTP/ 4 TSFP services to the surrounding area, ensuring accessible and equitable support in an area where none is currently available. In addition to provision of infrastructure, seconded staffing from SMoH (48 healthcare providers across 4 centers) and capacity-building support for health and nutrition facilities and cadres, CARE will implement two sector-specific behavior change initiatives, taking into account the differing needs of men, women, boys and girls across the population groups, to ensure the sustainability of the initiative and to enhance community resilience.
Action towards improved access to gender sensitive sanitation and hygiene’ positive behavior change in South Sudanese Refugees’ camps and host communities in White According to the Sudan Multiple Indicator Cluster Survey (MICS 2014), only 16.2% use improved pit latrine in White Nile (WN) state and 13.1% use pit latrine with a slab compared to the national rate of 33%. The remaining of the population uses shared or unimproved sanitation facilities which do not guarantee safe and hygienic conditions for a healthy environment. Currently, the importance of safe sanitation and hygienic practices for improving human health, dignity and economic development is not emphasized enough. Sanitation and hygiene is also directly related to the status of child, maternal and neonatal health and nutrition. WN state records 11.1% of severe malnutrition among children and 17% of chronic and severe malnutrition. Furthermore, the diarrhea rate is 29% among children under-5 years. During the last outbreak of AWD in Sudan WN state had the largest numbers of reported cases and deaths, however, the south Sudanese refugees(SSR) camps witnessed very few cases of the disease despite the fact that in five camps as an example 10.3% defecate in open space while only 2.3% use household latrines.


This project is designed to respond to the sanitation and hygiene gaps in South Sudanese Refugees’ camps focusing on camps in the Al Salam locality where Plan International Sudan is assigned to respond to WASH needs. The project will provide household VIP latrines that respond to the gender specific needs of women, protection needs of women and girls as well as dignity of people with disabilities primarily for the new arrivals. This will be complemented with intensive cleaning campaigns and ( hygiene promotion and awareness raising activities  in the new extension camps) to increase knowledge and improve positive attitude towards hygienic practices among households. The role of community leaders in hygiene and sanitation activities will be strengthened through trainings in PHAST approach, which will include mobilization of communities to dislodge old latrines and engage in cleaning campaigns. The project aims to provide comprehensive WASH services to affected communities in the 4 camps Al Redis 1, Al Redis 2, Alkashafa and Jouri and new extension areas. Adequate measures will be implemented to ensure active engagement of communities, fair and equitable service provision and strengthening the role of community leaders in project implementation and overall WASH service provision to ensure accountability and transparency in service provision. Plan is also implementing WASH projects funded by other donors, and the project team will ensure coordination, and complementarity. This will include use of baseline surveys and feasibility studies findings related to WASH to enhance service delivery under this proposed project. Coordination with other actors on the ground UNHCR, CAFOD, ADRA, WES, COR as well as protection working group and other sectors will be a key component of project implementation and closure phase.
Response to vector borne diseases outbreak with focus to Chikungunya in Red Sea The proposed activities are in response to the ongoing outbreak of Chikungunya virus outbreak that so far affected Red Sea state through the interruption of virus transmission cycle from human to mosquitos and mosquitos to human, timely access to appropriate treatment of cases, and strengthened surveillance that will allow early identification of cases and guide vector control activities. 
The project will ensure the continuity and expansion of already initiated activities to effectively contain the outbreak and address the existing gaps for three months period.  Three localities in Red Sea were selected based on the caseload, mortality, and continuation of the transmission is targeted for all essential components of the response and control.  The number of cases reported from these localities is representing the majorities of the total caseload as of December 2018, The envisaged response consists of the following activities
1.	Provide leadership, coordination and operations support
2.	Enhance surveillance activities including epidemiological surveillance, active case finding and vector surveillance
3.	Strengthen case management and infection prevention control
4.	support and mobilize the communities to lead and sustain vector control activities
