Provision of immediate and lifesaving health services to people affected by ongoing clashes and conflicts in hotspots and IDP across Sudan. ltpgtltspangtThe Sudan crisis, which commenced on April 15, 2023, has led to significant humanitarian challenges within the country and the wider region. The conflict has resulted in the displacement of millions of people, causing disruption to trade, market functionality, household mobility, humanitarian assistance, and basic service provision. As of October 2023, thousands killed, aboutnbsp4.8 million individuals have been internally displaced, with over 1 million new IDPs and 345,000 individuals crossing into neighboring countries. Ceasefire agreements have been repeatedly violated, resulting in minimal aid being able to enter Khartoum and the Darfur region.lt/spangtlt/pgtltpgtIn response to this crisis, the project aims to provide life-saving interventions, focusing on the most affected states, Khartoum and the Darfur region. The primary objective is to deliver life-saving health services to those in need, with a particular focus on displaced people and vulnerable host communities. The project will operate on a 48-hour response modality till June 2024, with consortium partners capable of delivering life-saving activities to hotspot areas based on their location and response capacity, aiming to reduce mortalities and morbidities among internally displaced persons (IDPs).ltbrgtThe targeted interventions will be concentrated in hotspot areas in Khartoum and Darfur states, with the possibility of extending support to internally displaced persons (IDPs) in Kassala, AlJazeera, and Red Sea, following consultations with the Health cluster coordination team. These interventions encompass trauma and emergency care, transport/ambulance systems, support for emergency medicine (ICU and CC), early detection and response to outbreaks, surveillance, mobile clinics, support for referrals, selected primary health care facilities, and dialysis and oncology services. These interventions will be closely coordinated among consortium members to prevent overlapping and will be conducted in close collaboration with the Federal Ministry of Health (FMOH), respective State Ministries of Health (SMOH), and state-level health clusters. The project is designed to be realistic and flexible, adapting to highly volatile situations. Detailed planned activities will be submitted in a concept note once a consortium member gains access to a targeted area and can respond immediately.ltbrgtGiven the 48-hour response nature of the project, activities and locations will be confirmed at the concept note stage. Detailed and revised information on these aspects will be provided during the project revision stage. As many areas remain inaccessible, the strategy is to submit a detailed concept note with planned activities once a consortium member gains access to a targeted area, enabling an immediate response. The success of the project and the avoidance of overlapping efforts will hinge on close coordination among consortium members, the health cluster, and other stakeholders. Collaboration with organizations such as WHO, UNICEF, WFP, and the FMOH for the provision of essential supplies, is also anticipated. To ensure accountability to the affected population, consortium members will strive to make the targeted individuals aware of the available service packages in the language primarily used by the beneficiaries. Additionally, a complaints and feedback mechanism will be established through a complaint desk, hotlines where feasible, and other channels, with the collected feedback being analyzed to enhance services. The project will also address cross-cutting issues, including the inclusion of persons with disabilities to ensure their access to services, while the team will receive orientation on gender-based violence (GBV) and the prevention of sexual exploitation and abuse (PSEA), along with referral mechanisms to protection services.ltbrgtltbrgtlt/pgt
