SCI will use its Lankien office for operations of this project. The rub hall in lankien will be used to store food while on transition to school and drop centre sites. SCI vehicles will transport food to schools. Transportation Liaison with the log cluster in Bor will be established. At the field level, WFP will be requested to support transportation of food to schools and drop-in centres. Opportunities in all logistics hubs will be explored and utilized. Direct charter flights from Juba is minimal. (SCI Operational strategy and risk analysis is attached).
Emergency WASH Support to IDPs and vulnerable host communities in Lopa Lafon County. HACT plans a 6 months project in the locations of Lopa Lafon to address WASH underlying issues that have a contributory factor to increased incidences of public health and protection issues. This project aims to provide timely, equitable access to safe and sufficient water as well as increase knowledge of appropriate sanitation and hygiene practices for vulnerable and conflict affected populations to prevent and mitigate WASH-related diseases, malnutrition and GBV/SEA incidences amongst IDPs, vulnerable host communities, children, women and vulnerable groups in Lafon county.  HACT has carefully considered the specific needs, concerns and priorities of women and girls, men and boys of different ages and disparities such as disabilities in its response, incorporating protection principles during implementation.

WASH responses will be coordinated and integrated with nutrition, FSL and health partners. The project will target communities with poor access to safe water supply, unsafe sanitation and hygiene practices, poor sanitation coverage and support health, education and nutrition centers with WASH facilities. 
The population to be targeted by HACT activities face crisis level food insecurity, interrupted markets, limited access to water, low hygiene awareness and poor sanitation. Intended beneficiaries have extremely limited access to clean water and little knowledge of hygiene best practices

Considering WASH Cluster’s recommendations and feasibility, HACT will ensure usage of the following lifesaving WASH activities as an integrated WASH package to respond to the needs of the most vulnerable. 
 WASH Cholera integrated programming targeting cholera hotspot areas in Lafon. HACT will work education, health, nutrition and FSL partners in the locations targeted to ensure an integrated approach is upheld during implementation covering WASH’Nut Integration, by specifically targeting SAM/MAM children and their families with WASH services, at facility, communal and HH levels and WASH’GBV integration, by ensuring GBV/SEA risks are mitigated through the provision of WASH services.
Strengthening Cholera Preparedness and Response in Juba County and cholera prone areas in South Sudan The proposed action aims to provide timely and equitable WASH life-saving assistance to the cholera vulnerable and/or affected population of Juba (type hotspot 1), South Sudan. Despite significant efforts made on the provision of humanitarian assistance in the area since early 2014, the situation in the targeted locations remains dire and strongly influenced by continued fluctuations in population movements and climate factors dictating living conditions for displaced groups. Several needs assessments were carried out in these areas by SI in Munuki, Juba in July 2017 and 2018 and other locations by Oxfam in Juba highlighted significant needs in WASH, FSL and Protection.

The hereby proposed project targets IDPs, host community and returnees settled in Juba with two packages: cholera preparedness WASH activities and cholera response capacity across the country in an effort to ensure continued access to minimum WASH services in order to prevent and/or respond to outbreak affected populations and indirectly affected communities from falling further into the humanitarian crisis continuum. SI will coordinate the implementation of activities at field level with other actors to ensure provision of multi-sectoral assistance to the beneficiaries. Furthermore, SI intends to work closely with health partners to monitor epidemic outbreaks throughout the implementation of this project.
GBV EMERGENCY RESPONSE PROJECT FOR MUNDRI WEST (Mundri and Kotobi Payam) and MUNDRI EAST (Lakama'di and Kedi'ba Payams) The overall aim of the project is to contribute to strengthening prevention, mitigation and response to GBV issues as well as strengthening quality of care for GBV survivors. This will build on the already gained milestones from the first allocation that has already enabled MAYA to provide community based women and girls friendly spaces in Mundri Payam in Mundri West and Lakama’di and Kedi'ba in Mundri East. Also continuous provision of case management services especially in Lui. However, these established structures of the centers remained poor, limited WampGFS staffs and increased number of IDPs in the targeted locations. These gaps will be supported by second round standard allocation.

This will be achieved by establishing one (1) Women and Girls Friendly Space in Miri-Mojjo in Mundri Payam, Kotobi Payam in Mundri, supporting women and girl’s friendly spaces in Lakama'di and Kedi’ba Payams in Mundri East.  Women and girls are the primary target of the project. Community outreaches, psycho-social support services, case management. Community leader’s capacity building and capacity building for women leaders on leadership skills and management. The focus will be on women lead community based organizations, women's associations and youth associations focusing to strengthen women's leadership position in the community.

MAYA will also create awareness to the women and girls during women and girls friendly spaces sessions on the available services for GBV, small income generation as part of psychosocial support, recreational activities with women and girls in women and girls friendly spaces and support building capacity of women and girls especially most vulnerable women and girls in vocational activities for improvement of livelihoods.
There is already existing referral pathway in Mundri West. This project will enable MAYA to train the members of GBV Working group on the referral pathways and how to use to support the survivors of GBV and there will be quarterly update of the referral pathways. MAYA will create one referral pathway for Mundri East., and update it regularly.
MAYA with the previous project have trained community mobilizers, already existing service providers including the health, psycho-social support personnel, community leaders on basic PFA and what is remaining is only to continue with individual and group psycho-social support activities in all the project locations.

The organization through the previous project, have already trained and positioned its staffs in GBV issues including case management. Therefore, the only refresher training to the staff will be on Women and Girls Friendly Space Guideline. This will be done to sharpen their skills in working with women and girls in women and girls friendly spaces.
Provision of FSL pipeline to protect the livelihoods of crisis-affected populations in Greater Bahr el Ghazal and Greater Upper Nile, South Sudan The January IPC’s projections into 2018 by May-July, with humanitarian assistance planned, an estimated 40 counties are expected to be in Crisis (IPC Phase 3), 31 counties in Emergency (IPC Phase 4) and none in Famine (IPC Phase 5). However, in the continued absence of all forms of humanitarian assistance, in May–July 2018, an estimated 7.1 million people (63% of the population) would face Crisis (IPC Phase 3) or worse acute food insecurity, of which 155,000 are estimated to be in Catastrophe (IPC Phase 5) and 2.3 million are estimated to be in Emergency (IPC Phase 4) – at this time, rising excess mortality and acute malnutrition would be expected.


The increase in severely food insecure persons are due to the escalation in conflict as we enter the dry season the below average harvests (part due to location specific environmental factors: flooding amp drought and increasingly due to large scale displacement) resulting in limited food stocks and an early start to the lean season in 2018 lower purchasing power in the current protracted economic crisis reduced trade flows or supply of goods and commodities from neighboring countries and within the country itself (likely to improve in non-conflict affected areas as the dry season progresses) livestock raiding and disease morbidity and mortality that undermine stock survival, productivity and off take with many displaced families having already lost all their animals through the need to sell or looted in the mayhem of conflict and seasonality: the peak lean season when household food stocks are at their lowest and in most cases none existent after repetitive conflict and shocks to their normal livelihood.

With the majority of food-insecure people live in the Greater Upper Nile and Greater Bahr el Ghazal, the project therefore aims to build FAO pipeline capacity to support the resilience of livelihoods, including protection of the most vulnerable population groups, and enhance livelihood-based productive sectors, while reducing vulnerability to shocks and stressors. This will be achieved through the procurement and provision of vegetable seed, fishing equipment and tool pipeline to meet increased need of the vulnerable population in Greater Upper Nile and Greater Bahr el Ghazal
Integrated Emergency WASH Response in Fangak and Canal Pigi of Jongolei State. The widespread humanitarian suffering in South Sudan has overwhelmed both the government and humanitarian agencies as depicted by the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) bulletins for financial appeal. The two days visit by UN Under-Secretary-General for Humanitarian Affairs and Emergency Relief Coordinator,Mark Lowcock on 15th and 16th May 2018 to South Sudan revealed that the peace process has so far produced nothing, the cessation of hostility is just a fiction and the economy of the country has collapsed. As a result of the compounding effects of widespread violence and insecurity and a deteriorating economy, 7 million people – more than one in two across the country need humanitarian assistance in 2018. Nearly 4.3 million people – one in three people in South Sudan have been displaced, including more than 1.74 million who are internally displaced and about 2.5 million in neighbouring countries. Displaced people are more vulnerable to threats to their safety, health and livelihoods.

The reach assessment conducted in Canal Pigi on March 2018 revealed minimal access to humanitarian services like health, nutrition, water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) while SPEDP’s findings also indicated dire WASH gaps on sanitation, clean water supply and good hygiene behaviours prompting SPEDP’s strategy to scale up its operations in Canal Pigi and Fangak to complement on the FH/SPEDP’s one year FSL and WASH project funded by OFDA in Fangak and Canal Pigi. The WASH project under OFDA funding focuses on rehabilitation of hand pumps, construction of shared household latrines and hygiene education.

SPEDP proposes a six months project to provide WASH interventions to 27,000 vulnerable people i.e. 60% Internally Displaced Persons and 40% host population beneficiary households living in the cholera hopspots of Fangak and Pigi Canal. The activities will focus on rehabilitation of mini water yard system, WASH in schools through construction of emergency school latrines and formation of school hygiene clubs, provision of hand washing facilities in institutions, cholera awareness raising, promotion of household water treatment, water quality testing and monitoring, distribution of menstrual hygiene kits, distribution of hygiene kits to families with malnourished children, participatory hygiene awareness sessions, distribution of buckets to families with no water containers including mitigation of GBV risks among the community.
Increasing access to GBV services for Conflict affected population in Ayod County of Jonglei State The project targets displaced and host communities in Ayod county as a result of the spread of the 2013 political conflict in the Jonglei State, The project will provide time sensitive and life-saving services to survivors of Gender Based Violence (GBV) and conflict affected communities in IDP sites of Ayod county
Community Action Organization will prioritize frontline service provision which are GBV case management, Psycho-social activities and community based psycho-social activities Community outreach for referrals and risk mitigation to GBV for women , girls, men and boys in Ayod
The target beneficiaries are 5000 (2500 women, 500 men, 1500 girls, 500 boys). The project will be implemented in a span of 6 months.
Emergency food security and livelihoods support to 5400 most vulnerable households in Bor South County of Jonglei State, South Sudan This proposed project aims to increase food availability and access by providing livelihood kits and adaptive training to most vulnerable households to increase fish, crop and vegetable production, mainly for consumption at the household level and sale of surplus at local markets. SAADO will target 5400 households in Bor South County with emergency fishing, crop and vegetable kits. This location has been chosen because it represents IPC phase 3 according to the IPC January to March 2018 projections. The livelihood kits will be obtained from the Food Security and Livelihood Cluster FAO pipeline to communities affected by the ongoing crisis in Jonglei State.
SAADO will put in place a mechanism for effective and participatory community vulnerability mapping and use a comprehensive beneficiary selection criteria developed and discussed and agreed upon with the Communities to include Men,Women,Boys amp Girls. During community consultations at various levels, all men, women boys and girls will be consulted to fully understand and appreciate the impact of the current crisis on men, women and children that would further inform response. “Do no harm” and AAP principles will be applied throughout the duration of the project, so that any possible negative implications of the project at community level are addressed before they occur through integrating a strong Communicating with Communities(CwC) feedback mechanisms. The project will build upon/complement SAADO long experience in implementing livestock disease prevention and control through vaccination and treatment in Bor South county with FAO and livelihoods inclusion project supported by Humanity Inclusion. It will also complement the Lives Saving activities carried out by other FSL partners in the county such as CRS,CASI amp CARD. The proposed activities are necessary and sufficient to achieve the stated outputs for these interventions based on the relevance of each activity in saving the lives of the communities. The indicators selected are SMART and SAADO has in place  a strong monitoring and evaluation system to measure these indicators and to ensure the intended results are achieved. Additionally, the output targets are reasonable and achievable considering our existing implementation capacity and experience in food security and livelihood programs. The means of verification, such as monthly reports, distribution lists and regular field visits are strongly credible and are currently used by the organization in its MEAL processes across the Bor South County and other parts of South Sudan.
Strengthen CCCM activities in Wau collective sites and camp like settings to improve delivery of humanitarian services and protection of IDPs through efficient and effective multi-sectoral response in Wau. Currently AFOD is undertaking camp management in all the five collective sites in Wau after a successful transition from ACTED to AFOD with support from IOM and CCCM cluster. Now two out of five collective sites are being managed by established self-management structures with oversight from AFOD. AFOD has built institutional capacity to effectively manage the 5 collective sites in Wau. Additionally, AFOD successfully implemented an emergency nutrition response funded by CHF in Wau county including PoC and collective sites, and physical presence in Wau. 
In collaboration with the state/county authorities and partners on ground, AFOD will ensure there is a rapid scale up of access to life saving services for displaced persons in Wau collective. 

In addition, displacement tracking and monitoring in Wau/Jur River Counties will be strengthened. And effective coordination with County RRC and partners in carrying out assessments, planning amp implementation mechanisms for the CCCM activities including progress monitoring and reporting on results and challenges for future programming will be improved. With an effort to promote durable solutions of integrating IDPs into the existing host communities and peaceful return, AFOD will accelerate dialogue and discussions on sustainable solutions for IDPs in close collaboration with local authorities. AFOD will support the decongestion strategy by advocating for services in camp like settings outside of the Camps, by sharing information with both IDPs and partners and advocating for services in communities. Cross cutting issues like gender, environment, climate change adaptation (CCA) and HIV/AIDS will be mainstreamed to minimize negative effects and increase IDPs knowledge, awareness, preparedness and mitigation at both current sites and place of return in the long run. 

Finally, AFOD in collaboration with National/State authorities and other operational partners including IOM and CCCM cluster will strengthen the CCCM mechanisms in Wau collective sites.
Increasing access and strengthening capacities of PHC to provide emergency lifesaving health care services in Bentiu POC through the provision of 1 mobile units, 1 PHCUs and 1 PHCC for Integrated response. World Relief South Sudan (WRSS) has been providing health services since beginning its operation in South Sudan in 1998. The former Unity State is characterized by inadequate health facilities, poor infrastructures, a lack of trained medical personnel and the closure of health facilities due to insecurity. WRSS currently supports 1 PHCC in Bentiu POC at sector 2. The aim of the proposed project to SSHF 2018 Round 2 allocation, is to improve access to primary health care, reducing mortality and morbidity of epidemic diseases and outbreak responses in Bentiu PoC. 

To do this, WRSS seeks to fill the critical gaps in the current health service delivery in Sector 2 PHCC Bentiu POC and establish 1 PHCU in sector 5 and 1 mobile unit. By implementing the PHCC clinical package, WRSS will provide services of BEmONC and CMR, and various services to care of patients suffering from hypertension and diabetes as well as other NCDs identified in the targeted population. In the situation when outbreak strikes, WRSS will implement preventive and case management measures to include disease surveillance and outbreaks, infection prevention control integrating health and WASH services as well as the risk communication for most infectious and preventable diseases.

The total population of Bentiu POC is currently estimated at 114,683, with approximately 19,608 people residing in Sector 2 and 33,322 residing in Sector 5, according to IOM population count. The project will target the entire sector 2 and 5 populations as indirect beneficiaries in the catchment area. Direct beneficiaries are estimated to be 35,805, and are those who are benefitting directly from a consultation service. 

According to DHIS report for World Relief Sector 2 PHCC, a total of 28,693 curative consultations were recorded in the last 6 months. Of these, 6,901 were children under five. The top 3 morbidities are: Malaria 8,496 (30%), acute respiratory infection 6,354 (22%) and acute watery diarrhoea 2,100 (7%). These figures were used to estimate the figures for direct beneficiaries.
