A Comprehensive Response and Prevention to child protection challenges and Gender Based Violence in Elnino's awake in Kabasa, Qansaxleey, Ladan and Kaharey IDPs in Dollow, Somalia. ltpgtSEDHURO is committed to implementing a comprehensive Child
Protection (CP) and Gender-Based Violence (GBV) integrated project within the
Dollow District of Gedo region, which is characterized by a diverse and
vulnerable population, including over 800,000 internally displaced persons
(IDPs). The project, built upon our experience in this region and supported by
UNICEF and UNFPA, is strategically designed to provide essential services to
children, women, and other at-risk groups, with a particular focus on
hard-to-reach areas. Our interventions encompass medical care, psychosocial
support, and case management services. Additionally, we will distribute dignity
kits to both adults and children, ensuring their basic needs are met, and
establish safe spaces for those at-risk. The project prioritizes the best
interest of children, striving to reunify unaccompanied and separated children
with their biological parents or primary caregivers. For those awaiting
reunification, foster care arrangements will provide a nurturing family
environment. This initiative also seeks to strengthen community engagement in
protection activities, notably through the establishment of accessible
community protection desks, operated by trained personnel who can offer
immediate assistance, referrals, and support to children and women in need.ltbrgtlt/pgtltp class="MsoNormal"gtTarget Outcomes:lt/pgtltpgt
