Area Based Response: Integrated Protection response for IDPs and host communities in the targeted localities of Gedaref and Rahad localities of the State of Gedaref ltpgtThis project will target protection risks in the targeted localities of Gedaref an Rehad which are now hosting a total of 28,450 Internally Displaced People. The traumatic exposure to the sudden armed conflict that broke out in mid April has led to a major protection crisis with many killed and injured including children, and large scale family separation as people flee to safety, leaving an increase in the number of unaccompanied and separated children (UASC). Vulnerable population groups such as women, girls and at risk groups are increasingly exposed to protection risks with immediate as well as longer term harm to their physical and mental wellbeing in States such as Gedaref which are now hosting large numbers of people who have fled from the violence. People now face heightened gender based violence (GBV) and child protection (CP) risks because of the largescale increase in displacement, loss of income, soaring food prices and lack of cash. The deteriorating security situation has also led to the breakdown of law and order, as well as school closures and limited access to live saving GBV services including case management, psychosocial support and referrals which has increased protection risks. Displaced and conflict-affected women and girls face increased risk of GBV, including sexual violence in temporary accommodations and during displacement, exacerbated by the increased presence of armed actors. Domestic violence risks have also increased with increased stressors and limitations on mobility. To respond to the increased number of people now being hosted in Gedaref there is an urgent need to increase GBV, CP and general protection services here. This will include responding in the localities of Gedaref and Rehad and will target a total of 4030 people (ltspan lang="EN-US"gtRahad: 661 girls, 563 boys, 68 women, 37 men / Gedaref: 1344 girls, 1142 boys, 142 women, 73 men). ltbrgt
