Provision of CCCM mobile services and CCCM capacity building; food security and livelihoods assistance and emergency shelter and non-food items to IDPs, returnees and host community members in urgent humanitarian need in South Sudan. ACTED proposes interventions under three clusters: Camp Coordination and Camp Management (CCCM), Shelter and Non-Food Items (SNFI) and Food Security and Livelihoods (FSL). These will focus on the SSHF prioritized locations and operate out of ACTED’s pre-existing bases or through the established mobile response team. 

CCCM

In the framework of the proposed intervention ACTED aims to expand its mobile Camp Coordination and Camp Management (CCCM) capacity across South Sudan. This will continue current activities under OFDA and SSHF funding and complement an existing OFDA project. Building on its extensive CCCM experience in South Sudan, ACTED’s mobile CCCM team will respond to sudden onset displacements across the country, aiming to reach 20,000 displaced people. Building on previous experiences in Mangateen and Kajo Keji, ACTED’s interventions will target not only IDPs, but also the host community, returnees and local polity (known collectively as a displacement -affected community) with CCCM activities. ACTED undertakes this area-based approach to ensure the benefits of the intervention are durable, and that the newly displaced IDPs are better prepared for self-management, either in the presence of humanitarians or not, after ACTED officially exits the area. With this grant, ACTED is proposing to undertake eight assessment missions and indicatively four responses, aligned with the Mobile Response SOPs, with estimated target populations of 7,500 individuals per location. ACTED’s CCCM interventions will primarily focus on four key cluster priorities: 1. Camp Management, monitoring and accountability to affected population, 2. Community-based governance and participation, 3. Site maintenance activities to support minimum living standards and protection standards, 4. Coordination of multi-sectorial assistance and provision of services. 

SNFI

In line with the SNFI Cluster prioritization, ACTED proposes 6 interventions in locations with high needs and significant numbers of displacement-affected populations, in particular focusing on newly displaced people or returnees. Therefore, ACTED will conduct 3 static interventions in Wau, Jur River (based out of Wau) and Akobo, and 3 mobile interventions targeting Canal/Pigi, Twic East, and Bor South. ACTED is targeting a total of 11,900 beneficiaries (1983 HHs) through in-kind S/NFI kit distributions under this intervention. Mobile responses will be conducted by ACTED’s experienced CCCM Mobile team. This will ensure full integration of the S/NFI response with CCCM planning and coordination. In static locations, ACTED will coordinate with FSL projects and with other partners to ensure that the community’s needs are more holistically and efficiently met. 

FSL

ACTED aims to provide life-saving emergency livelihoods assistance to 4000 conflict-affected and vulnerable households (approximately 24.000 individuals) in Yirol West. Through this FSL proposal, ACTED’s FSL responses are planned to target distribution of 4000 fishing kits and 4000 vegetable kits and subsequent awareness and sensitization trainings/ meetings on the proper use of the inputs provided.
