Rehabilitation and Upgrade the damaged houses of Returnees in eastern districts of Aleppo, Syria Through ERF funds, this Shelter Upgrade Project shall assist IDPs by improving the physical conditions of buildings of unfinished complex in Aleppo Governorate. The association will upgrade unfinished buildings in various stages of completion to provide shelter space for newly displaced, improve the living conditions for IDPs already squatting in skeleton buildings and ensure minimum conditions of safety for families, in particular children, often at risk of accidents in these structures. The need for such interventions is expected to increase as the Government continues to implement the policy of evacuating IDPs from collective shelters, such as school buildings, and in particular the university dormitories in Aleppo. The works will be complementary to the available WASH facilities implemented or to be so the IDPs will enjoy a decent and safe shelter. Shelter support will target vulnerable groups such as women-headed households, elderly and people with disabilities. As an overall target, Taalouf in 2016 plans to support up to 3860 IDPs (193 apartments *4families in each apartment *5 Individuals in each family =3860 IDPs) with shelter solutions, subject to availability of funding levels requested.
Damascus to Qamishli humanitarian airlift To allow for an urgent scale up in the response to Ar-Raqqa and Al Hasake, an increase in the number of Damascus-Qamishli airlifts is needed. Currently, two airlifts per day, six days per week, are conducted using one WFP-contracted aircraft, operating at its maximum capacity. The grant requested would allow for a second aircraft to be deployed to Syria, enabling the number of daily rotations to increase from two to three (six days per week). The USD 2 million SHF funds will be used to cover 40 Damascus-Qamishli rotations over two months, including handling costs.
Provide health assistance to PIN in HTR in Hasskeh governorate The ongoing crises in Syrian are highly affecting the life aspects of population in Hassakah governorate. Where thousandth of families have become IDPs and thousands of families lost their income sources. Lack of basic utility services including electricity, fuel, safe drinking water and basic sanitation services have increased the vulnerability to disease outbreaks.

Hundreds of the health centers become out of service. Medicine and health services prices rise dramatically more than doubled. Not to mention the obstacles of providing medicines and medical devices (the only way of providing them is by air with high costs). IDPs , returnees  and affected families from local community in Hassakah governorate are suffering from difficult living conditions, which include the medical shortage, health issues that are caused by malnutrition, spreading of epidemics and diseases, and the rarity of health centers in some districts besides. The desperate need for clinics and dispensary, the high prices of surgeries, low individual income level and lost the income sources and scarcity of transportation to the capital to conduct some surgeries unless by airlines which is highly expensive.

The above situation led to deprived many people to conduct life-saving surgeries and medical treatment because of their inability to afford the high costs. Thus many people lost their lives and many become disabled.

Al-Ihsan association one of the main partners fot UNICEF,UNFPA ,WHO and UNHCR in the health sector and implemented many health projects in the HTR areas in Hasakeh governorate , with very good expert staff.

Emergency WaSH Support to Conflict-Affected Population The Syrian Arab Republic is now ending its fifth year of civil crisis and a political solution remains elusive. Interventions is focused on maintaining existing water infrastructure and provide safe water through traditional life-saving WaSH assistance to affected population. The Action's aims mainly at supporting emergency maintenance /rehabilitation of water and sewage systems which has suffered greatly from the effects of the prolonged armed conflict and to increase the coping resources of affected population against continues water related emergencies. ACF is proposing an intervention for conflict affected and vulnerable individuals in Syria targeting both IDP and Host communities in Hassakeh, Aleppo, and Rural Damascus Governorates.
This proposed intervention aims at addressing several compounding factors which are imposing serious threats on the public health situation in the country and ensure access to safe clean water, sanitation services and hygiene promotion activities for 125,000 individuals. The intervention is elaborated to address needs through systems rehabilitation and emergency water supply activities such as water trucking, provision of fuel and distribution of related NFIs .  The intervention mainly aims at responding to the water cut in Aleppo city, water trucking needs for IDP communities in rural Damascus and the continues water problems in Hassakeh governorate through emergency WaSH activities.   ACF keeps flexibility regarding planned activities and target areas in order to be able to respond in a timely effective manner to affected population needs across the country including participation in convoys accessing besieged areas.
Reconstruction of Damaged Houses in Homs The crisis in Syria affected people especially IDPs who lost their houses and jobs and made it hard to live properly because of basic goods and services high prices, high household rents, and unemployment. Due to this, people seek returning to their houses in Homs.
Inshaat Association will help people who want to return to their houses in Homs in the damaged neighborhoods. The Association will provide reconstruction materials after studying each case and provide the necessary help needed.
Support Education: Brighter, Inspired Generation (SE BIG) The Support Education: Brighter, Inspired Generation (SE BIG) Project aims to ensure vulnerable Syrian girls and boys have increased access to a protective environment conducive to learning. This will be achieved through a combination of approaches including the rehabilitation of formal schools and classrooms, the rehabilitation of informal education centers and the provision of teacher capacity building in the areas of psychosocial support and active learning. The project has been developed based on extensive field knowledge of the education situation in the targeted areas of Rural Damascus, Damascus and Homs and will target a total of 14,525 individuals (approximately 50% IDPs) including 150 men, 150 women, 7,112 boys and 7,113 girls. A special focus of the project will also be on vulnerable groups within the target population including IDPs, people with disabilities and homeless children to ensure that they too have equal access to education opportunities and can access support specialized to their needs.  Gender  will also be considered  throughout the life of the project with special attention paid to ensuring that men, women, boys and girls all benefit from project activities.
Emergency WASH intervention to conflict affected population in Hassakeh, Aleppo and Rural Damascus The Syrian Arab Republic is now in its sixth year of civil crisis and a political solution remains elusive. The humanitarian community estimates that 13.5 million people in Syria need protection and some form of humanitarian assistance, including 6 million children. 8.7 million People are unable to meet their basic food needs, and 70 % of the population lacks access to safe drinking water (UNOCHA, Humanitarian Needs Overview, 2016).
Syria’s water crisis has deepened along with the conflict water availability is about half what it was before the crisis began in 2011. Ongoing violence and heavy clashes have caused severe damage to pipelines and other water infrastructure, and municipal workers are often unable to carry out the necessary repairs. Frequent power cuts make it hard for technicians and engineers to pump water to civilians. Some areas receive only one hour of electricity a day and cuts lasting up to four days are reported. The misery is particularly acute for millions of displaced families who have to share limited water supplies in over-crowded shelters.
Against this background, putting in place both short and longer-term approaches, ACF’s WASH intervention has been designed around two integrated strategic lines. On one hand, the project will contribute to maintain as much as possible the existing water infrastructure and its capacity to provide safe water to the beneficiaries through the rehabilitation and improvement of essential physical infrastructure, provision and installation of spare parts, equipment and consumables, support for the operations and maintenance of the systems as well as to strengthen community- based support (community involvement in the management of water supply systems at community level through the establishment of water committees). On the other hand, the project will provide life-saving WaSH actions to the affected population though water trucking, coupled with hygiene promotion to displaced people and host communities.
Provision of multisectorial assistance to Palestine refugee and other civilians residing in UNRWA collective shelters in Syria UNRWA seeks USD 2,000,000 to provide multi-sectorial assistance to the 10 collective shelters currently managed by the Agency in Damascus and Rural Damascus. This project will cover basic food and NFI needs for residents of the shelters, as well as some of the costs related to the management of the shelters. 
As of end of 16 October 2016, a total of 2,530 civilians were hosted in 10 collective shelters accommodated in eight UNRWA schools, one UNRWA vocational training centre, and one governmental school in Damascus. Approximately 12 percent of the residents are Syrian nationals. 
Most of the residents in UNRWA shelters have been displaced for over three years, and are wholly dependent on the Agency to meet their most basic shelter, food and NFI needs. The SHF contribution would enable UNRWA to procure and distribute material assistance, as well as cover some of the shelter management costs for 2,530 IDPs for up to nine months.
Contributing to improve the nutrition practices and services for children under five and pregnant/lactating mothers with prioritization of underserved areas Based on the recent information from OCHA on the humanitarian situation of people living in hard to reach and besieged areas has been deteriorating in the recent months. Increased malnutrition rates, micronutrient deficiency and inadequate access to basic services are all prevalent factors in Syria. Access to health and nutrition facilities remain a significant challenge for beneficiaries, especially in hard to reach and remote conflict affected locations. In order to address the deteriorating situation of women and children in these areas UNICEF is planning to address the emergency nutrition and needs of the most vulnerable groups in hard to reach and besieged areas such as rural Damascus, Hasaka and Deir Azzour. 

The project will target children under the age of five years with nutrition preventative interventions by providing lipid based nutrient supplest and micronutrients to prevent under nutrition and micronutrient deficiencies. UNICEF through this project aims to provide therapeutic services to support the treatment of severe acute malnutrition through outpatient therapeutic centers and health facilities. 

For pregnant woman and lactating mothers the project will provide preventative nutrition services such as promotion of optimal maternal and child feeding practices, provision of multiple micronutrients and high energy biscuits. 

The project will be implemented through the Ministry of health where there existing health facilities. In addition, the project will be also implemented through national NGO partners that will be identified based on the need. The project will be implemented for a period of twelve moths from the day of approval. Supplies for both prevention of under nutrition and treatment of acute malnutrition will be procured ad provided to the beneficiaries through the partners and through interagency convoys.

The project have a monitoring component through different methods ranging from the use of the electronic data collection, health workers data collection and key health informant in the governorates. In besieged areas where monitoring is difficult other means of communication will be used such as WhatApp, messaging and Skype. Community leaders and key informants will be part of the monitoring and help in the implementation and verification process.
Provide lifesaving food assistance to the most vulnerable crisis affected people, including people with specific needs (Phase II) This intervention is inserted in the framework of the strategic objective 1 of the HRP 2016 and is designed to complement the efforts of the Food Security and Agriculture sector in Syria. This intervention is in line with Sector Objective 1 and aims to ensure adequate food consumption for the most affected people, reducing the number of people adopting negative coping mechanisms. The project aims to respond to the food assistance needs of most vulnerable people under the 1 category, those with extreme, negative or significant food consumption gaps, with extreme loss of livelihood assets and those who are marginally able to meet food needs only by means of irreversible coping strategies. In line with the strategic priority of the allocation, the intervention will prioritize the needs of IDPs households.
 Priority will be given to households headed by women, with numerous children, elderly people or persons with disabilities. Gender and age are critical factors in aggravating the vulnerability of people because of the lacking of a regular and stable income source. The project targets those vulnerable groups in the Governorates of Rural Damascus ( PiN 1,111,516, 555758 women and 555758 men)  Homs ( PiN 553,901, 282489 women, 271411 men), Aleppo (PiN 2076715, 1038358 women, 1038358 men), Lattakia ( 180877PiN, 94056 Women, 86821 men).
The project plans to distribute to the above listed target areas 18500 food parcels to guaranty short term food assistance. The emergency food parcel provides approximately 90'000 KCAL, and is designed to provide acute emergency response (lifesaving). 
 The project will be implemented in partnership with Syrian Commission for Family and Population Affairs. 
Overall Objective: Contribute to the response of the critical live saving need ensuring adequate food consumption for the most affected people 
Specific Objective: Meet the food needs of 18500 vulnerable HHs (92500 individuals) providing emergency and/or short-term life-saving food assistance.
Rehabilitation and equipping of Alkindi hospital Because of the effects of the crisis in Syria in general and in Homs in particular, many hospitals have been out of service which led to a decrease in medical services in the city. Having medical service needs long time, and in some cases it requires moving into another city which affect negatively on the people.  

Due to this situation, Al-Birr Association has invested many hospitals that out of service in order to provide medical services with high quality. Al-Birr Association has invested Farkoh Hospital, Al Shawi Hospital, and Al-Mahatah Hospital to cover the medical needs required by the population of Homs. Despite this, the medical service was not enough to cover the city needs that led the Association to contract with Al-Kindi Hospital to do an entire rehabilitation to the building and operate it. The hospital is located in the city center of Homs (50 – bed capacity) covers almost all medical specialties, but it has been stolen which has made the hospital again out of service in a previous period.
The project aims at rehabilitate the hospital and provide it with the basics equipment in addition to enhancing the medical services that will be offered for free during the project's period such as surgeries, Incubations, Dialysis, Intensive care units, and the Installation of artificial limbs. Because the association wants what is best for people, it requires a high – quality MRI to offer the required service. Note that, there is a low quality MRI that does not serve the purpose very well, which forces people to move to another city to have the medical care that they need Note that this service will provide for free during the project's period.
Al- Birr association has an eligible staff of doctors, nurses and an administrative staff, which has high experience in providing health services Al-Hamideya Clinic, which has been established since 1994, has never stopped working since 1994 except during the crisis, the clinics that operate in Wa’er area as well. The association also has the ability to transport patients to and from hard-to-reach areas through ceoordination with government and obtaining the necessary approvals.
The project aims to strengthen the health services with the aim of life sustaining through the provision of medical assistance and surgical aids in  ICU and other departments for people in need.
Life-saving assistance to vulnerable IDPs and host communities in Sweida and Rif Damascus for backyard poultry raising for eggs production The crisis in Syria will soon complete its fifth year, and it has severely limited the food production, marketing and importing. Latest assessments indicate that food is generally available in markets and shops across the country, although at a reduced quality and quantity and at a constantly growing price. In addition to the limited access to food, the purchasing power of families is progressively dropping due to low levels of income, lack of income –earning opportunities, inflation and steep depreciation of the Syrian pound. As a result, families can hardly meet their basic food needs, have an increasingly poor and unbalanced diet and are often forced to adopt unsustainable coping strategies leading to complete assets depletion. Findings from various assessments indicated that the quality of diet and micronutrient intake in Syria has markedly deteriorated with many households substantially reducing the
consumption of meat, dairy products, eggs, vegetables and fruits. In order to avoid further deterioration of the quality of diet and micronutrient intake is therefore essential to strengthen food production capacities at household level. It is important to support homestead small livestock production given that traditionally poultry play a key role in the household's food security.
This project will particularly focus on the provision of an initial set of inputs which can quickly improve household food availability and income. Back-yard farming is an activity often conducted by women that will benefit from this intervention as they will be prioritized in the selection.
This support will be complemented by activities aiming at strengthening women technical skills, and will be implemented in cooperation with organizations addressing other constraints (in particular food nutrition and hygiene) of vulnerable households. Backyard food production activities will also benefit vulnerable groups with limited access to land, such as IDPs, landless rural population, urban and peri-urban populations.
A close cooperation with other UN agencies, such as UNICEF, WFP and UNHCR will further improve the positive impact on beneficiaries creating synergies between the different assistance packages and making good use of the specialized expertise that each partner can provide.
Each targeted household will get a poultry package of (15 chickens + 150 kg of poultry packages).
Providing Lifesaving Healthcare Services The long-lasting consequences of the conflict with shortages of qualified medical personnel and life-saving medicines, and the destruction of health infrastructure have left many without access to basic medical care.
As a response the project aims to provide lifesaving services to the vulnerable (IDPs, people with disabilities and the most vulnerable people caught in crisis) in the eastern (Al Mushatia), western (Daret Azza), and northern countryside (Afrin amp Rajo) of Aleppo (HTR areas), these services include hemodialysis sessions and high-end complex surgical operations. These services are very important since they are not supported by any other party because of lack of fund, and the activities are life-saving surgeries and dialysis sessions.
Without dialysis, end stage renal failure patients will suffer to death, also the same for cardiovascular and neurological lifesaving surgeries, and orthopedic surgeries save dignity of people by keeping them productive and protect them from disability.
This project brings decent life amidst ongoing conflict for those vulnerable groups who have dropped off the radar.
Life saving mobile health units and first aid operations in Aleppo City and countryside The systematic destruction ofthe fixed health facilities of Aleppo City and countryside has deprived the population of a normal access to health and medical services. The situation in Aleppo is that of a Province in war, hence under emergency status. Not only the fixed health facilities are reduced but the access to them is problematic from within the City and from the countryside. With this Project MSJM try to fill the gap of the critical lack of medical facilities in Aleppo City and  countryside by providing and running 6 mobile clinics and 6 ambulances: half of them in Aleppo City and half of them in the country side. This mobile health fleet will provide  immediate emergency and primary health care to 200 000 beneficiaries as well as medical consultation, obstetric related issues,  health awareness for transmissible diseases, SGBV counselling and curing, rescueing and evacuating. The Mobile Health Units, let them be mobile clinics as well the ambulances will be run by a consortium between the Aleppo Health Directorate and MSJM who will provide a medical supervisor and 48 trained health volunteers. First aid kits will be distributed to 8000 families, benefitting at least to 40000 individuals, along with training courses on how to use them and how to apply the standard norms of right gesture for saving life. The project will constitute an important moment of popular awareness concerning acquiring know how to take care of the wounded during war times.
