Increasing access to life saving and life sustaining health services through primary health center repair and capacity building in Dar'a This project will respond to health care gaps in rural Dar'a by rehabilitating and equipping primary healthcare facilities, as well as providing basic healthcare services and training professional healthcare staff. This is a two-pronged approach making healthcare more accessible as well as of a higher standard. 

Dorcas will repair and equip 3 PHCs in Daraa (2 PHCs level B/ 1 PHC level C). The Ministry of Health were consulted in this process and have provided an indicative list of needs and works to make the facilities safe, sanitary, and functioning once again. As part of the re-equipping process, clinic staff will be trained by suppliers on how to use and maintain the equipment. Dorcas will also engage in training of PHC staff. Based on MoH requirements, training programs will be standardized as much as possible while also being tailored to each HF’s needs. Training will focus on relevant topics linked to key service gaps in the current health system such as RH/GBV and integrated management of childhood illness (IMNCI) and any other health problem that is relevant. Once the facility is up and running, and staff are fully trained, Dorcas will ensure that patients are seen, treated and referred, and receive proper follow-up.  Dorcas will also engage its MHPSS team to work specifically on the issue of mental health, providing mental healthcare services to the population in need within the catchment area of the facility. 

This project falls in line with Dorcas’ ongoing work in South Syria, where a current projects endeavors to attain the same objectives within underserved areas. The project will draw on Dorcas’ vast experience in the sector, region, and lessons learned from previous projects. This project will also keeping in line with Dorcas’ approach of using social work methodology through much of its programming, and ensuring that gender and protection are not only mainstreamed, but also centralized in project planning design, implementation, and evaluation.

Shelter solutions for vulnerable communities in rural Northern Aleppo, and Deir-ez-Zor Over 10 years of crisis have displaced people and damaged their homes.
Northern Aleppo became accessible just after the COVID-19 pandemic hit, and was an area of great urban development before the crisis hit, with approx. 250,000 inhabitants. Now, people are slowly returning. Deir-ez-Zor has been one of the most severely hit cities during the crisis, which has caused major displacement. 

Medair aims to address the shelter needs of 810 beneficiaries in vulnerable communities in rural northern Aleppo and Deir-ez-Zor through:

- rehabilitation of 70 households in Deir-ez-Zor
- special adaptation for PLWMIs in northern Aleppo (about 12% of rehabilitated households)
- protection upgrades to 35 apartment buildings (e.g. doors, lights, hand rails)
- distribution of shelter kits to 40 households in northern Aleppo

Medair does this in full coordination with other INGOs present in the area, as well as other relevant parties such as MOLA and SARC.
Enhancing the school environment of vulnerable boys and girls through winterization intervention and health awareness in Hama The proposed project will provide an education response targeting at least four schools in Hama Governorate (80 classrooms) focusing on winterisation needs, in order to enable the continuity of education for students and teachers during winter and through the COVID-19 pandemic by ensuring a conducive and safe learning environment. The project will be implemented through two main pillars. Resources and supplies will be provided to schools’ personnel, and the most vulnerable boys and girls in order to be able to cope with the winter and prevent and mitigate the risk of winter-related infections and COVID-19 spreading. At the same time, INTERSOS will enhance Infection Prevention and control and personal Hygiene practices capacities and the awareness of school personnel, health supervisors, parents and students in order to promote health-aware behaviours. The project will implement preventive actions in schools, including PPE kits and hygiene kits distributions, and promotion of infection prevention and control (IPC) measures through awareness-raising sessions and training for parents, teachers and school personnel and health supervisors. Schools will be equipped with a fuel-based heating system and fuel tanks to allow them to operate in acceptable conditions throughout the winter. In addition, in order to support the most vulnerable families to cope with winter-related and school-related expenses, in kind education kits and winter clothes will be distributed to boys and girls. Parents-teachers associations (PTAs) will be set up in each targeted school. For doing so, a team, comprising 1 INTERSOS Education Officer and 2 Health and Hygiene Promoters will be deployed and carry out activities in the six target schools across the sub-districts of As-Saan, Kernaz and Hamra. The team will also be supported by a MEAL officer who will be responsible to collect the data and deal with feedback and complaints received by the beneficiaries. A total of 80 classrooms and at least 3580 individuals will benefit from the intervention. 2800 children (B 1400 G 1400) and 780 adults (M 390 W 390). As INTERSOS has signed an MoU with the Ministry of Education (MoE), the project will be implemented in direct collaboration with MoE and through an already established close coordination with the Directorate of Education (DoE) of Hama. Following an area-based approach, the proposed intervention will build on and complement activities carried out under the ongoing SV-funded education/health, SHF and ECHO protection interventions implemented in the same target locations.
Providing adequate life conditions for Returnees and Host communities through rehabilitation of Damaged Houses in Rural Damascus  Idleb. As a result of the crisis affecting Syria for over ten years now, the conflicts have left several areas around the country with considerable damages in the infrastructures, housing, and services.. causing a large number of the population to flee their areas of residence amp seek refuge in neighboring areas.         
The Syrian Society for Social Development is planning to provide basic necessary life saving services, through rehabilitation of Damaged houses for Returnees amp Host Communities in various locations in the governorates of Rural Damascus and Idleb. SSSD has previously worked in the areas of Harasta amp Az-Zabdani in the governorate of Rural Damascus, on the rehabilitation of Damaged houses, Schools, and the main sewerage pipe serving the area, in addition to community centers providing services to beneficiaries of the host community amp returning population. amp lately has started activities in a new community center in the area of Khan Shaykun in the governorate of Idleb, in coordination with a UN mobile team acting in the area.
The planned number of the houses is expected to reach /150/ expecting to host /750/ beneficiaries, selected following the agreed selection criteria, among the most vulnerable of children, women, men, people with special needs and elderly among the affected IDPs.
Urgent WASH support by rehabilitation of sewage infrastructure for the vulnerable households and communities in Abu Kamal and Jalaa, Deir Ezzor governorate. The objectives of the proposed project are to provide immediate basic WASH services to people at risk within the highly vulnerable communities of Abu Kamal and Jalaa, Deir Ezzor governorate. This project is considering the highly anticipated IDP returns to this area as the area is still witnessing a steady number of returnees, but they are facing massive difficulties in resettling back into their community, due to the large-scale destruction caused by the conflict. The sewage networks and WASH facilities in schools in the area of intervention, are heavily damaged and according to our assessment sewage wastewater and potable water are mixing with each other, within the network system. While WASH facilities in schools are destroyed. This current WASH situation exacerbates the spread of diseases and the health situation in general and it is just a matter of time before the impact becomes uncontrollable, without rapid intervention. This urgent need will be addressed by providing minor rehabilitation for the full sewage network within the left part of Abu Kamal city and Jalaa city and help provide all neighborhoods with a functional sewage network system. Also, provision and installation of two sewage pumps in Jalaa and rehabilitation of WASH facilities in schools in Abu Kamal and Jalaa. The overall target is to provide 34649 individuals from the affected host, returnee and IDP community with basic WASH services, reduce the outbreaks of diseases possibly caused by the currently leaking sewage network system, enhance safe and equitable access to WASH facilities in schools and reduce exposure for girls and children with disabilities to any protection or GBV risks. It worth to mention that the proposed project is linked with OPS project of HRP code (HSYR21-WSH-179168-1)
Providing shelter assistance to conflict-affected people in Homs and Rural Damascus. DRC is proposing to improve the living conditions of conflict-affected populations in Rural Damascus, and Homs in both semi-urban and rural settings through the provision of winter-appropriate assistance. DRC aims to address the needs of returnees, IDPs, and vulnerable populations residing in partially damaged housing that lack the main elements of protection from harsh weather conditions. This need is exceptionally urgent with winter approaching. 

As a result of the significant shortage of fuel as a means to heat homes across the country, compounded by the deteriorated economic conditions in Syria and neighboring Lebanon, households’ ability to repair houses has decreased, increasing their vulnerabilities further and projecting them to various risks. 

Adequate shelter with winter-appropriate assistance provision is critical for people’s health, well-being, and physical protection needs. Thus, with the secured approvals from the Ministry of Local Administration and Environment (MoLAE), 800 individuals (151 men, 174 women, 221 boys, 254 girls) will be targeted by DRC through the full rehabilitation of 165 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.
