Programm Grundbildung Guinea &lt;![CDATA[Programme de l&apos;éducation de base]]&gt; Das FZ-Vorhaben Programm Grundbildung Guinea zielt darauf ab, Guinea bei der Umsetzung des nationalen Bildungssektorprogramms (Programme Sectoriel de l'Education, PSE) zu unterstützen, insbesondere im Hinblick auf eine Erweiterung des Zugangs zur Primarschulbildung und eine Steigerung der Unterrichtsqualität. Die ursprünglich für eine Korbfinanzierung zugesagten Mittel i.H.v. EUR 18,3 Mio. wurden 2012 aufgrund der anhaltend fragilen politischen Situation in Guinea in ein bilaterales, regierungsfernes Programm umgewidmet. Das Vorhaben wird von der NRO Plan International in engem Austausch mit dem PSE umgesetzt.Zielgruppe des Vorhabens sind Kinder im Primarschulalter. Aber auch deren Eltern und Lehrer, sowie Kommunen und lokale Bauunternehmen profitieren direkt und indirekt von den vorgesehenen Maßnahmen.Das FZ-Vorhaben umfasst den Bau und die Ausstattung von insgesamt 141 Primarschulen in der Region Faranah in Zentralguinea. Für jedes Schulgebäude werden Zugang zu Wasser und Toiletten bereitgestellt, in einigen Schulgemeinden werden zusätzlich Lehrerhäuser errichtet. Zudem wird die Beschaffung von Lehrmaterialien finanziert. Auch die Fortbildung von Primarschullehrern ist eine wichtige Komponente des Vorhabens. Ferner zielen Sensibilisierungsmaßnahmen darauf ab, dass Familien und Gemeindemitglieder eine höhere Wertschätzung für Primarschulbildung für Jungen und Mädchen entwickeln, sich aktiv an Bau und Unterhalt der Schulgebäude beteiligen, und sich in Elternvereinen engagieren. Programme de l'éducation de base Erreichen der universellen Primarschulbildung bei gleichzeitiger Verbesserung der Unterrichtsqualität auf allen Bildungsstufen. Programme de l'éducation de base
Towards institutionalized protection of women and children survivors of Gender Based Violence in Emergency contexts This project is based on the emerging evidence for the need to provide specialized mental health services for women and girls survivors of SGBV, including sexual assault in addition to the emerging need to provide safe accommodation/sheltering services for boys over 12 years of age (noting that boys between 12-18 can not be hosted at the shelters operated by ABAAD) ABAAD proposes under this project to respond to the follow gaps in services:
2. Financial coverage of CMR related and specialized mental health services for SGBV survivors
3. Support national systems to respond to the needs of boys aged between 12-18 years old survivors or at risk of SGBV
Several efforts have been exerted in previous years to ensure the quality delivery of CMR related services at a national level. Currently, several hospitals and primary health care centers have been trained and equipped with PEP kits to provide such holistic services for all survivors regardless of their nationalist, age or gender. However, currently two main gaps have persisted and/or emerged that compromise the quality delivery of services, which include: the lack of funds to cover CMR related and mental health services (such as lab testing, forensic doctor fees) especially for non-refugee survivors.
Cash Assistance for Severely and Highly Vulnerable Households -- Phase II (CASH-II) The "Cash Assistance for Severely and Highly Vulnerable Households – Phase II" (CASH-II) project will fill an important gap in urgent need for Syrian refugees living in Bekaa and Beirut and Mount Lebanon (BML) who are severely economically vulnerable and are especially vulnerable during the harsh winter months.  Since January 2015, when Government of Lebanon (GOL) restrictions explicitly prohibited refugees from employment in addition to the pressures of an overwhelming number of refugees in certain locations, severe strain already limited economic resources for Syrian refugees. This caused many vulnerable families to engage in negative coping mechanisms including incurring debt, minimizing access to vital health and education services, engaging in child labor, prostitution, and forced and/or early marriage among other. The project is designed to contribute to the minimum amount required for a family to survive in Lebanon to meet its basic needs through direct multi-sector cash transfers to identified vulnerable households (HHs), thereby reducing economic stress to extremely vulnerable HHs, and contribute to mitigating vulnerability concerns for women and children. 

CASH-II will specifically target the same Syrian beneficiaries of the RI’s “Cash Assistance for Severely and Highly Vulnerable Households” (CASH) Project (LEB-16/DDA-3604/Call for proposals/BA/INGO/2480) in order to ensure that these 531 households (HHs) receive multi-sector cash assistance (MSCA) corresponding to the winter months of January, February and March 2017.  As per the recommendation of the Basic Assistance Working Group (BAWG), it is a priority to ensure that all Syrian refugee beneficiary HHs currently supported under the Lebanon Humanitarian Fund (LHF) projects receive the winterization top-up of $75 from November 2016 - March 2017 this is in addition to a continuation of the MSCA through March 2017 to ensure the full package of winterization support is provided.  Therefore, the project is designed to ensure the targeted 531 Syrian refugee HHs receive the full package of winterization assistance comprising of $250 ($175 provided by RI as MSCA and the remaining $75 provided by UNHCR as winterization support). The assistance will be a direct continuation of assistance that otherwise would have ended in December 2016 with the closing of RI’s Lebanon Humanitarian Fund (LHF) CASH project.
Increasing local community involvement in solid waste management to improve long term municipal performance This intervention, which represents a scaling up of ACTED’s innovative approach to solid waste management for an improved environment in Akkar and Beirut and Mount Lebanon, will target the three municipalities of Meshmesh, Chartoun, and Kfarnabrakh, in Akkar and Mount Lebanon, respectively. By incorporating the needs and priorities of municipalities as well as local community members throughout the stakeholder mapping and community engagement processes, ACTED will ensure that this intervention is designed with both top-down and bottom-up approaches and takes into consideration the needs of vulnerable groups, such as women, youth, and persons with disabilities. By simultaneously increasing the technical capacity of municipal workers and promoting understanding and awareness on proper sorting at the household and community level, ACTED will contribute to sustainable behavioural change in solid waste management for an improved environment in Lebanon.
Bringing Adequate Sanitation Infrastructure in Zgharta and Mejdlaya By mid-2015, Lebanon is host to more than 1.5 million Syrian refugees scattered across more than 1,500 municipalities.  These population increases are a result of push factors (the situation in Syria) and pull factors (the level of assistance in Lebanon and the border policy of the Lebanese Government).  Various assessments, conducted since the Syrian influx, show that these pull factors also relate to levels of security, livelihood, and socio-political structures within Lebanon. All geographical areas with a high concentration of Syrian refugees in Lebanon share a similar protracted marginality, underdevelopment, and weak infrastructure. This makes it very difficult for humanitarian agencies, government planners and local authorities to have a full understanding of their numbers and needs. Everyone is overwhelmed. 
Furthermore, repercussions of the Syrian conflict on Lebanon’s internal affairs and on the region has a direct impact on the living conditions of both Lebanese communities and Syrian refugees in the country.  Unfortunately, this situation has led to more tension among Syrian refugees and host communities and in some cases led to armed conflict. However, it is noteworthy that each community has its own needs which require specific intervention. Accordingly, RMF through its strategy for responding to emergency situations, conducted community need assessments with local community stakeholders and local authority representatives in North Lebanon for tackling the specific needs of each community. In this context and as an initiative for reducing conflicts among Syrian refugees and host communities caused due to the lack of sustainable infrastructure services, the René Moawad Foundation (RMF) after consulting the community needs in Zgharta and Mejdlaya designed this proposal to ensure (1) 33000 people among which 3000 are Syrian refugees will be provided with a healthier environment by providing two additional garbage compactor trucks in Zgharta, (2) 3440 people among which 640 Syrian refugees will have access to a 940 meters sewage network, and (3) raise the awareness of the targeted community through providing sanitation facilities and board games to public schools in Zgharta Caza and give 750 students registered in public schools booklet on WASH and conflict resolution.
"El Hay" - Neighborhood for all: integrated multi-scale intervention for the vulnerable population of Qobbe area, Tripoli Over the past 5 years of crisis in Syria, Tripoli and its surrounding areas in the North Governorate have hosted more than 150,000 Syrian refugees. The protracted nature of the Syrian crisis has led to a continuous and higher pressure on resources on already vulnerable Lebanese households living in poorly served urban areas of Tripoli, where, even prior to the Syrian crisis, the socio-economic situation was particularly precarious as many areas suffered historically from violent clashes.
Building on its 4-year long experience in Tripoli area, SI has developed an integrated strategy to reduce pressure within the communities and improve the living conditions of the vulnerable host and refugee households living in the poorest neighborhoods of Tripoli. As part of its strategy, SI is proposing here to implement a multi-scale integrated approach at the unit, building and sub-neighborhood scale, in targeted sub-neighborhood of Qobbe area (vulnerable neighborhood in eastern Tripoli). SI’s approach combines a hard component, through the rehabilitation of shelter and WaSH infrastructures at the three scales aforementioned, and a soft component, through a strong community mobilization, inclusion and participatory approach. Indeed, SI believes that a proper environment is key to develop the basis to fostering a more stable social environment and more positive relations between communities within their neighborhood. The hard component of this project will have an immediate impact on targeted households (and in particular the ones with reduced mobility for whom accessibility will be improved) supporting them to live in a dignified environment within a short timeframe. 
The soft component will go along with the rehabilitation activities by involving the local communities and calling for their participation in the design and identification of the public places to rehabilitate (whether at the communal or sub-neighborhood scale), with the support of an experienced community mobilization team well known in the area. A strong focus will be put on the youth and women participation to the design activities and awareness sessions (waste campaigns, mural painting) as the key to sustain those activities and guaranteeing their impact on a longer term.
Cash Assistance for Severely and Highly Vulnerable Households (CASH) The " Cash Assistance for Severely and Highly Vulnerable Households" (CASH) project will fill a large gap in urgent need for Syrian refugees and deprived Lebanese living in Bekaa and Beirut and Mount Lebanon (BML) who are severely and highly economically vulnerable, but lack access to essential goods and services of their choice due to lack of financial resources. Since January 2015, when Government of Lebanon (GOL) restrictions explicitly prohibited refugees from employment in addition to the pressures of an overwhelming number of refugees in certain locations, severe strain already limited economic resources for Syrian refugees.  This caused many vulnerable families to engage in negative coping mechanisms including incurring debt, minimizing access to vital health and education services, engaging in child labor, prostitution, and forced and/or early marriage among other.  The project is designed to contribute to the minimum amount required for a family to survive in Lebanon to meet its basic needs through direct multi-sector cash transfers to identified vulnerable households (HHs), thereby reducing economic stress to extremely vulnerable HHs, and contribute to mitigating vulnerability concerns for women and children. To this end, RI will build on its strong experience providing multi-sector cash assistance (MSCA) to vulnerable Syrian refugees in Bekaa (Zahle,West and Rachayya), and North (T5 and Akkar), and expand its MSCA portfolio to increase its caseload of Syrian refugee HHs in Bekaa, start MSCA for Syrian refugees in BML, and include  the most vulnerable Lebanese in Bekaa and BML through the National Poverty Targeting Program (NPTP).  Through the proposed project, RI will fill a gap in MSCA provision based on its current database of vulnerable HHs and noted by UNHCR Mount Lebanon Basic Assistance Working Group (BAWG), and identify additional Syrian and Lebanese beneficiaries in Bekaa and BML to receive MSCA based on the results of the HPQ interpreted through the tier of vulnerability assigned to the assessed HH by the Refugee Assistance Information System (RAIS) scoring and previously identified referrals of the most vulnerable Lebanese by NPTPRI will conduct the required amount needed of Interagency Household Profiling Questionnaires (HPQ) and provide MSCA for six months according to the BAWG agreed-upon rate in relation to the Survival Minimum Expenditure Basket (SMEB) to 625 beneficiary HH: 531 HHs scoring the most vulnerable among those assessed by the HPQ and 94 most vulnerable Lebanese HHs identified and referred by the NPTP.
Provision of Cash Assistance to Vulnerable Refugees from Syria and Affected Communities The project will support households identified as highly or severely vulnerable with Multi-Purpose Cash for a period of 8 months. NRC is applying under the first allocation window and plans to provide MPC amounts to severely and highly vulnerable families that are a) living in properties that are not eligible for the NRC Occupancy Free of Charge (OFC) programme, b) severely and highly vulnerable households with the full MPC amount in Informal Settlements, and c) supporting extremely vulnerable Lebanese (15% of caseload).

Through the CSMC programme, NRC will support beneficiaries living in Informal Settlements. The CSMC programme involves the creation and training of site management committees composed of refugee representatives who live in the Informal Settlements. The close familiarity and trust that NRC has built with these representatives will facilitate access to the most vulnerable refugees who may otherwise fall through the net and go unsupported. 

In buildings outside of IS, families found to be severely or highly socio-economically vulnerable, but living in properties that are not eligible for rehabilitation upgrades, will be targeted through this intervention. The Occupancy Free of Charge (OFC) programme provides vulnerable households with 12-months rent-free accommodation. NRC achieves this by contracting Lebanese homeowners to upgrade their unfinished building and bring them up to the agreed minimum standard, and host Syrian refugee families for a period of 12 months. 

Currently, neither the Basic Assistance (BA) WG nor the Lebanon Cash Consortium (LCC) have officially supported, or prevented, beneficiaries receiving rent-free shelter support also receiving MPC, whether the full amount or a top-up amount.  As such, until there is a clear position communicated by the BA WG to the different MPC and shelter programme donors, NRC will not target NRC rent-free shelter beneficiaries for the full MPC amount or top-up amount. OCHA’s assistance in resolving these ongoing discussions would be most welcome. During the course of the grant, should the position of the BA WG be made clear, then NRC may also target severely and highly vulnerable refugees that are also benefiting from the NRC rent-free shelter programme – with either the full amount or top-up a mount, whichever is endorsed by the BA WG. Should this be possible, NRC would communicate this proposed change in targeting to ERF in advance.
Addressing the increasing vulnerabilities of the communities affected by the Syria crisis in Mount Lebanon with Multipurpose Cash Assistance Nearly 1.2 million Syrian refugees have fled to Lebanon, 78% of those registered with UNHCR being women and children. The expenditure pattern showed in September 2015 in the Inter Agency Working Group shows that the most vulnerable people spend 56% of their income in food and 94% of Syrians are in debt. SIF is implementing an Unconditional Cash Assistance Program (UCAP) ending in March 2016 to the benefit of 811 HH, among them, 311 are benefiting of unconditional cash in order to face the ongoing winter. With this proposal SIF wishes to provide life-saving assistance to vulnerable women, men, girls, and boys in Mount Lebanon and hence bridge the gap between 2015 and 2016 winterization cycles

SIF proposes a dual response: 

 1) Identification of most vulnerable persons through collaboration with UNHCR for Severely and Highly vulnerable Syrian Refuges and NPTP for the most Vulnerable Lebanese. This first response includes the identification of Protection cases (Child Protection, Sexual and Gender Based Violence, persons lacking legal documentation) and referral internally or to external actors aiming at achieving access to services

 2) Provision of unconditional cash in support to the severely and highly vulnerable families identified for a period of 8 months (From May 2016 to December 2016). SIF will target most vulnerable people affected by the Syrian crises, including the Lebanese families (15%) as part of the NPTP MoSA program. Beneficiaries will be targeted through vulnerability criteria using the Household profiling Questionnaire (HPQ) analyzing:

Personal factors: intrinsic (but not always fixed) condition of the members of the family, (person with disability, old person, women alone, , etc) including their condition in relation to their gender (male/female), age (infant, children, elder persons, etc) or other individual changing conditions (pregnant or lactating women, etc).
Environmental factors: relate to the family/community support, economic situation, housing conditions. SIF will support both the Basic Assistance and Protection Working Groups’ strategies by sharing information and experience from the field.
Integrated Solid Waste Management programme in South Lebanon The Syrian Crisis has crossed into its 5th year since the conflict broke out in Syria. The pressures of the Syrian crisis over the resources and structures, and the burdened caused by 30% increase in overall population living in Lebanon, has had a particular strong impact at environmental level that remains unaddressed.

The project presented aims at developing a comprehensive Integrated Sustainable Waste Management (ISWM) system in the District of Saida, specifically in the 18 municipalities of the Zahrani Union, aiming at improving the environment and reducing the exposure to public health risks, protecting and preserving natural resources, particularly land and water resources from land-based pollution. To achieve this, the action proposes the development of a coherent and coordinated strategy towards the achievement of a comprehensive sustainable integrated waste management system, consisting of assessing and analyzing the current waste management levels, practices and facilities, improving the efficiency of municipal waste collection system, promoting the sorting and recycling of waste vis-a-vis its reintegration in the market  by exploring the waste industrial symbiosis and enhancing the capacities and practices of municipal workers and informal labourers (pickers) to manage waste, as well as to invest in public awareness raising activities.

Apart from its primary objective, the project will incorporate components of social stabilization by reducing the impact of Syrian displaced presence in the area, as well as to demonstrate their contribution to the common well-being by incorporating and formalizing pre-existing groups of waste pickers in the collection and sorting cycle, eventually promoting the generation of income for these vulnerable groups.
WASH Service improvement: Smart distribution metering and greywater management in ITSs The Syrian Crisis has crossed into its 5th year since internal conflict broke out in Syria. At this stage, with people living in protracted displacement, Lebanon requires more sustainable and innovative solutions in order to continue to provide the level of service provided to Syrian Refugees and the vulnerable Lebanese host communities. This is required due to the length of people’s displacement, the strain on local resources in Lebanon, the reduction in funding available within the country, and the need for better management systems which are environmentally friendly.

This project therefore aims to reduce the reliance on water trucking and desludging services, which are presently the only way for refugee communities to access clean drinking water and have sanitation services. In order to do this, the project will tackle these issues from two approaches – the first of which involves the training in, and implementation of grey-water management solutions. This will begin to tackle with the excessive amount of grey-water that is being dumped into latrine pits, and waste collection sites, whilst it is possible to reuse much of this waste in agricultural activities or for a second-time use to clear latrines, etc. The second proposed intervention is the improvement of the monitoring in the services already being delivered, adding an extra layer of instrumental monitoring through the implantation of measuring devices as well as positioning and IT systems.
Urgent Complementary WASH project in Tripoli, North Lebanon Most Vulnerable Neighbourhoods The proposed project is a complimentary gap filling humanitarian project that is conducted directly from the community members through the ongoing performed community mobilization sessions under LRC’s water and sanitation infrastructural project in North Lebanon’s most vulnerable neighbourhoods in partnership with UNICEF. These neighborhoods have witnessed 7 years of clashes due to difference in sectarian (Alawites and Sunnis) and political overviews (Pro Syrian Regime and opposition). 

The project aims to promote the right to live in a dignified community, decrease negative health implications due to unmanaged wastewater and improper water quality, increase the sense of security leading to a decrease in immigration, and enhance and provide minimum living standards for children, women, disabled, youth, elderly, and men on an equal basis through:
-	Supporting the community to ensure sufficient water quantity of appropriate water quality.
-	Ensure proper WASH connections that were affected during the clashes by fixing the leaking sewage pipes and preventing the collection of rainwater in the buildings’ infrastructure.

The implementation is to diminish the clashes’ upshots from shelled water tanks to affected sanitation of buildings. The project is in coordination with WASH partners, NLWE, Fayhaa Union of Municipalities, and Tripoli’s municipality. It targets residents living in Tripoli’s poorest and most vulnerable region, Qobbe, and specifically the frontline neighbourhoods: Baqqar, Tanak, Hariri Compound, Riva, American, and Latifa.
