line-height:normal"gtSomalia Young Doctors Association (SOYDA) will carry out a 12-month project in Daynille, Banadir Region, focusing on the provision of Emergency Lifesaving Nutrition Essential Package Services for Children Under-five and Pregnant and Lactating Women. This will be accomplished by screening, referring, and treating children with severe acute malnutrition (SAM), referring children and pregnant and lactating women with moderate acute malnutrition to targeted supplementary feeding programs, and promoting optimal nutritional and care practises for mothers, infants, and young children (IYCF). The primary goal of treating SAM cases and promoting IYCF is to reduce the overall prevalence of acute malnutrition among new arrivals IDPs in Daynille, Banadir Region.ltbrgtltbrgtTraining of community health workers to conduct routine and active case finding of malnutrition cases, promotion of Family/Mother MUAC (where mothers and other carers will be trained to screen their children), quarterly mass MUAC screening in project locations, and screening of new arrival IDPs in collaboration with CCCM cluster partners will all be part of the screening and identification of acute malnutrition among children, pregnant and lactating women.ltbrgtltbrgtOutpatient therapeutic programme services will be provided through three fixed sites integrated into the MCH and three mobile/outreach teams to treat severe acute malnutrition. All severe acute malnutrition cases with medical complications will be referred to the nearest stabilisation centers, and all moderate cases will be referred to the nearest TSFP sites.ltbrgtltbrgtThe promotion of optimal maternal, infant, and young child nutrition and care practises will include a variety of approaches such as the formation of mother-to-mother support groups, face-to-face counselling by health workers and community health workers, the use of interactive media such as community plays, and the use of IEC/BCC materials, among others. IYCF promotion will include key messaging on hygiene and sanitation, health, immunization, and so on. Malnutrition prevention will also include the promotion and distribution of micronutrient supplements.ltbrgtThe project will include the implementation of the Child Protection and Nutrition Integration Framework, as well as training nutritionists to identify and refer Child Protection cases. Nutrition workers will also be trained in PSEA/GBV issues and referrals.ltbrgtltbrgtThe project's Accountability to Affected Population (AAP) strategy, which includes community feedback sessions, a phone hotline for complaints, suggestion boxes, and the use of U-Report for large-scale community information gathering, will ensure that all aspects of the project are relevant, feasible, and effectively address the needs of the targeted community. ltbrgtlt/pgtltp class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:automso-margin-bottom-alt:auto
