Provision of life saving support and Primary Health Care (PHC) including sexual and reproductive health services in Markadda sub district in Hassakeh governorate. The humanitarian situation in North East of Syria remains extremely complex and highly volatile, characterized by ongoing hostilities, high-levels of population movement (including spontaneous returns), extensive explosive hazard contamination, large-scale destruction of civilian infrastructure, a fragmented and disrupted health system, insufficient supply of clean water and waste management services, limited support for education activities for children and adolescents, and an agriculture-based economy which has experienced the lowest harvest in years. As such, these multiple and interwoven crises have left more than 1.6 million people across Al-Hasakeh, Deir-ez-Zour and Ar- Raqqa governorates in need of humanitarian assistance in 2019.
 It is estimated that 25% of the crisis affected people are women of reproductive age and 4% are pregnant women who are in need for life saving RH services including prenatal care, postnatal care, safe delivery and treatment of STI as well as referral of the women having complicated maternal obstetric and gynecologic conditions to more specialized services. The situation is further deteriorated due to destruction of health facilities and limited health staff in the North East of Syria.
The project focuses on addressing the increased  need of  health services including Reproductive Health (RH ) for the crisis affected people in Markada sub district in Hassakeh governorate with catchment area of more than 170 villages through the provision and supply  of life saving RH services. The project key activities include procurement of essential and lifesaving medicine and equipment, operationalize outreach facilities including mobile team and/or mobile clinic to deliver RH services in the targeted locations. The project will be implemented in cooperation and coordination with UN agencies including WHO and UNICEF and Faith Based organization Pan Armenian Charitable Association (PACA).

The project is based on the previous AVSI experience in a similar SHF educational project and complementary to other initiatives AVSI is developing in Aleppo governorate (Health Open Hospitals project and AICS Livelihood initiative). The project was already approved under HPC system as priority for HRP 2021 with the code HSYR21-EDU-178578-1.
Strengthening the delivery of essential health care services to the most vulnerable groups in Deir Ez Zor The project aims to strengthen the delivery of the essential package of comprehensive and integrated health care services to the most vulnerable groups in Deir Ez Zor which hosts  541,418 PIN out of a total population of 765,352 (almost 71 % of the total population) .
 The population of Deir Ez Zor are equally disaggregated between female and male whereas the disaggregation per age is as follows: the percentage of children under 5 is 14 % (8 % G/8 %B), between 5 - 17 years is 37 % (17%f/20 % M), between 18 - 49 years is 37% (21 % F, 16 % M), and 50 + years is 12% equally divided between male and female.

The percentage of persons with disability is 25 %. Moreover, reference to the HUMANITARIAN SITUATION OVERVIEW IN SYRIA (HSOS) NORTHEAST SYRIA June 2020, where (278 communities in Deir Ez Zor were subject to multi sectorial assessment), Health Finding suggest that accessing healthcare was a major challenge. Many communities lacked health facilities and transportation-related barriers were a main obstacle for accessing health services in other communities. Lack of transportation
to reach health facilities and its high cost were reported by KIs in more than 40% of the communities) 

According to WHO / Health Resources and Services Availability Monitoring System, there is no fully functioning public health center while the number of partially functioning public helth centers is 33.

therefore, this project will secure access to essential health care services at the highest health-severity scale areas through supporting 2 static medical points in Abu Kamal city amp Kisreh city and 2 mobile clinics in Hajin and Susat areas where services at primary health care level including Child health, Integrated management of childhood illness (IMCI) for children under 5 , reproductive health, , communicable diseases, non-communicable diseases will be provided free of charge in addition to mental health and psychosocial support for people suffering from psychological distress and those who were subjective to direct violence especially women who have experienced partner violence, using WHO guidelines and tools and other evidence- based protocols.

Furthermore, people with disabilities will be targeted in this project through provision of assistive devices.
Increased access to sufficient and safe water , improved community awareness of water resource conservation,  hygiene behavior communication, and increased capacity for technical staff of local water establishment in Deir-ez-Zor. The proposed project aims to rehabilitate a water pumping station in Hatla Tahtany in DEZ. It is one of approximately 200 water pumping stations which typically pump, treat and deliver water from the Euphrates River or connected bodies of water, and which are affected by low water levels in the current Euphrates water crisis.

By rehabilitating this pump station, the project will increase the water supply to Hatla Tahtany, Abo Esmat, Al-Mukhtar, Al Makbra and Al-Umran neighborhoods in DEZ city, where the HNO WASH severity is 4 and the ratio of PiN is 81% (HNO 2021). The intervention will benefit 15,000 people by increasing the daily amount of water from 11 l/p/d to 68 l/p/d. An amount which exceeds the national minimum standards. In addition, Medair will provide Operation and Maintenance training to the local Water Establishment to ensure capacity building and sustainable operation of the pump station in the future, as well as community awareness on water usage plus COVID-19 Infection Prevention and Control. 

Medair will run this project in full coordination with other INGOs present in the area, the WASH Sector, as well as other relevant partners and stakeholders such as the Water Establishment, MoWR and SARC.

Medair confirms that there is no expected fund  from SDC and/or ECHO for this intervention
Providing WASH assistance to conflict affected populations in Syria. DRC is proposing to improve access of conflict affected populations to basic WASH services in Aleppo, Rural Idleb, Hama, and Dara'a in both semi-urban and rural settings. With the crisis entering its tenth year, a significant portion of the population continues to experience protracted displacement returns to certain areas have increased, and new IDPs swell already overburdened communities, while there has been limited response particularly in rural areas. As a result, families are resorting to negative coping strategies putting individuals at risk of health hazards among other risks. Thus, with the secured approvals from the Ministry of Water Resources (MoRW),  51,200 individuals (13,283 males, 11,264 females, 9,757 boys, 16,896 girls) will be reached either through borehole rehabilitation (6), water trucking, or sewage network (4) rehabilitation with complementary funding secured for hygiene kits, water tanks, and water network rehabilitation. Works will be delivered in line with the WASH Sector standards as well as the MoWR requirements. Covid-19 precautionary measures will be applied throughout the project by DRC staff and selected contractors.
Urgent WASH support by rehabilitation of sewage infrastructure, provision of water network, hygiene kits and mosquito nets for the vulnerable households and communities in Dbe’a, Al-Sukkariyah and Ashayer in Abu Kamal within Deir Ezzor governorate. The objectives of the proposed project are to immediately provide basic WASH services to vulnerable people in the highly vulnerable communities of Dbe'a, Al-Sukkariyah and Ashayer in Abu Kamal, Deir Ezzor Governorate. This project considers the highly anticipated return of IDP’s to the area, as the number of returnees remains high. However, due to the extensive destruction caused by the conflict, they face massive difficulties in resettling back into their communities. The sewage networks in the proposed areas of operation are severely damaged and, according to our assessment, sewage and drinking water mix within the network system. At the same time, there is no water network to provide access to clean water. In addition to the economic downturn, the increase in the cost of basic hygiene materials, the sharp drop in the value of the currency, and the unprofitability of hygiene materials, the current WASH situation is exacerbating the spread of disease (cholera, typhoid, and leishmaniasis) as well as the overall health situation, and it is only a matter of time before the impact becomes uncontrollable unless action is taken quickly. This urgent need is being addressed by rehabilitating the entire sewage network in the Dbe'a district of Abu Kamal to provide all neighbourhoods with a functioning network. In addition, the water network in Al-Sukkariyah will be rehabilitated to facilitate access to clean water, and hygiene kits will be distributed in Ashayer in Abu-Kamal. The overall goal is to provide basic WASH services to 34,000 people from the affected host, returnee and IDP communities, reduce disease outbreaks caused by the current leaking sanitation system, improve safe and equitable access to clean water, improve hygiene conditions, and prevent further spread of Covid-19 and waterborne diseases.
Providing Shelter Assistance to conflict affected people in Syria. DRC is proposing to improve the living conditions of conflict affected populations in Rural Damascus, Dara'a, Hama, and Aleppo in both semi-urban and rural settings. With the crisis in its tenth year, a significant portion of the population continues to experience protracted displacement returns to certain areas have increased, and new IDPs swell already overburdened communities, while there has been limited response particularly in rural areas. As a result, families are resorting to living in unsustainable settlements with poor access to basic services. Adequate shelter with appropriate hygiene facilities is critical for people’s health, well-being and physical protection needs. Thus, with the secured approvals from MoLAE, 935 individuals (253 men, 205 women, 169 boys, 308 girls) will be targeted by DRC through the full rehabilitation of partially damaged apartments in line with the Shelter Sector standards and MoLAE requirements. Covid-19 precautionary measures will be applied throughout the project by DRC staff and selected contractors.
Multi-sectoral Assistance to North East (MANE) This multi-sectoral project was designed to respond to the priority needs of a total of 23,950 vulnerable men, women, boys and girls in Deir Ezzor and Raqqa governorates through both lifesaving and life-sustaining assistance in the sectors of WASH, FSA and ERL. 

WASH: Approximately 23,600 vulnerable men, women, boys and girls will benefit from WASH (and WASH in schools) activities through the rehabilitation of water drinking networks in Mayadin, in addition to the rehabilitation of WASH facilities and installation of water tanks in schools in DeZ (Abu Kamal and Mayadin) and Raqqa (Maadan).

FSA: Approximately 250 vulnerable men, women, boys and girls will benefit from FSA activities through the provision of in-kind assistance to female headed families in Mayadin (Al Taybah).
