Provision of integrated life-saving health, nutrition, WASH interventions for the most vulnerable communities including cholera outbreak hotspots in Ma'rib Al Wadi at Marib  Khab wa ASha'f at Aljawf. ltpgtltbrgtAligned with the YHF RA 8 priority interventions in the health, WASH, and nutrition sectors as well as the strategic objectives of 2023 HRP, YFCA plans to implement an 8-month integrated project covering Health, WASH, and nutrition sectors in Marib Al wadi Dist. of Marib Gov. Khab wa Ash Sha'f dist of Al Jawf Gov. to reach 52,124(10,977 men, 12,127 women, 14,532 boys, and 14,488 girls) of the most vulnerable communities with essential lifesaving integrated services. The designed multi-sectoral project aims to contribute to mitigating the high levels of malnutrition and reduce the risk of outbreaks by strengthening and sustaining service delivery at both community and fixed levels. YFCA will benefit from its strong presence and good relationship with the concerned authorities and the other active stakeholders to ensure a harmonized, integrated response is provided to address life-threatening conditions driven by the prevalent outbreaks and malnutrition. ltbrgtFor the health sector, services will be provided on two levels 1) Fixed facility-based interventions and 2) Emergency Mobile Medical Team (EMMT). The package of planned health interventions includes the provision of essential Primary Health Care, upscaling the cholera outbreak response, supporting reproductive services within the BeMOC package services and provision of Mental Health and Psychosocial Support (MHPSS) services by supporting 1 HF (Al-Wahdah Hospital), one EMMT and establishing a (DTC) in Marib Al Wadi in addition to supporting 2 HCs in Kaab Wa Sha’af district (Al Abraq HC  Al Yatamah HC). The allocated support will encompass the provision of hazard allowance  training for the deployed health workers and the provision of essential medical commodities, equipment, and IPC materials based on the identified needs. The designed support for the targeted facility will also include establishing an incinerator and enhancing the WASH infrastructure within the facility by conducting minor maintenance for the latrines in the supported HFs. YFCA will also support the referral system from the community to the HF level to ensure patients have access to required emergency care.ltbrgtRegarding the Nutrition component, YFCA will complement health services with integrated first-line nutrition services in the supported facility and the EMMT. Services will include integrated community-based management of acute malnutrition (CMAM), with screening and referral, management of Moderate Acute Malnutrition (MAM) in children under 5 (CU5), and in pregnant and lactating women (PLWs). Curative services will be complemented by preventive services which cover the establishment and maintenance of Infant and Young Child Feeding (IYCF) corner at the targeted facility and the creation of 160 support groups at the community level targeting caregivers with child health and nutrition education. ltbrgtThe WASH interventions will focus on strengthening disease outbreak prevention, improving preparedness, supporting access to safe drinking water, and reducing protection risks among vulnerable, at-risk communities, including IDPs. This will involve providing life-saving WASH assistance to improve their health, nutrition, and overall well-being through water trucking, water quality surveillance, distribution of cholera, consumable hygiene kits, construction of PWDs latrines, disinfection campaigns, and hygiene awareness raising sessions. ltbrgtThese proposed interventions, at both HF and community levels, will complement YFCA’s ongoing WHO-funded health project in Marib Al Wadi district and the WFP-supported MAM nutrition project in Al Jawf gov. Given the close inter-linkages between other sectors and health outcomes and its good presence in Marib  Al-Jawf gov.s, YFCA will create synergies in targeting and service delivery with its activities in other sectors such as WASH, Nutrition, and CCCM sectors as well as ensuring safe access to health care as part of its GBV risk mitigation and protection mainstreaming approach.ltbrgtlt/pgt
