Strengthening the Capacity of Women to Create Sustainable Livelihoods and Economic Empowerment Women often stay in abusive relationships due to a lack of economic independence. This is particularly the case in situations of poverty and marginalization, which can be exacerbated by frequent natural disasters that disrupt people's livelihoods and access to basic services. Our grantee partner on the island of St. Lucia, Raise Your Voice St. Lucia (RYVSLU), provides training and income generation opportunities to survivors of gender-based violence in order to improve these vulnerable communities' socioeconomic conditions and better prepare them to withstand crises. At the IAF, we support community-led solutions to expand economic opportunity for survivors of gender-based violence.This grant is part of the IAF's commitment to strengthen community-led disaster mitigation and resilience in the Caribbean. It advances our partnershipwith USAID, Building Community Resilience in the Eastern & Southern Caribbean, as well as the U.S.-Caribbean Resilience Partnership.
Developing a replicable package for creating “menstruation friendly” schools in Uganda The project pilots a package to build the capacity of schools to act in line with the Ministry of Education’s call to support girls during menstruation and remove a neglected barrier to their full participation in education. The project establishes sustainable access to sanitary products, gender sensitive school facilities and puberty education alongside dismantling the menstrual taboo by engaging the community in creating a “menstruation friendly” school. We will work via the District Education Office in 10 schools over 2 years to train teachers and engage parents in achieving change. This will empower girls to engage more effectively at school through increasing their confidence, concentration, attendance and ultimately their performance. An improvement in adolescent girls’ school engagement and performance as they are more confident and better able to concentrate and attend lessons during their periods, via: 1. Improved knowledge of and attitudes to menstruation and puberty in girls, boys, parents, and teachers 2. Schools better equipped to provide for girls during menstruation 3. Girls, teachers, and parents have improved access to menstrual products. Parents, teachers, and pupils at 10 primary schools
Non Food Items response to vulnerable people affected by conflict and disease in Lakes States; South Sudan This project aims to provide timely lifesaving NFIs to 8,197 people in vulnerable situations affected by conflict in Yirol East and Yirol West in Lakes State. Populations in these locations have been affected by displacement and cholera outbreaks that taken several forms, all of which reflect high levels of need for shelter and NFI support. The IDPs sites and spontaneous settlements have become areas of protracted, highly congested displacement for people seeking protection from targeted violence. Some people have been able to move in and out of the bases to salvage possessions from their surrounding homes, and commerce has sprung up inside the bases to differing extents, enabling limited access to basic items (UNHCR and Plan International Assessment Feb 2017)

The mobility of affected civilians has been severely restricted and many are fearful of returning to their homes. On the other hand, cholera has been spreading so fast, forcing some people to relocate to new areas. As a vulnerable population group, women and children have been significantly affected by the conflict resulting in increased exposure to disease, food insecurity and a lack of lifesaving nonfood items and shelter. Gender and age considerations will be included in rapid needs assessments prior to implementation

Considering the current context and the high likelihood of increased insecurity and high cholera transmissions, CCOSS will focus its interventions on communities in crisis and emergency in Lakes (Yirol East and Yirol West). CCOSS will use participatory approaches to identify the needs of women, men, boys and girls. In this proposed project, barriers to participation of women and other vulnerable groups will be discussed and taken into account in both assessment and implementation stages. Gender and age considerations will be included in rapid needs assessments prior to implementation. CCOSS has physical presence in Yirol East and Yirol West, these staff will be mobile and move across all the targeted locations within Yirol East and Yirol West in conducting assessments, verification and distributions. CCOSS will also benefit largely from the Cluster static partners in Yirol such as UNHCR, Plan International and AAH International.

Medical camps outreaches using rapid response mechanism model shall be use to reach hard to reach areas including places with destroyed health infrastructures. Communicable diseases such as tuberculosis, HIV/AIDS, and malaria management will be incorporated at PHCC level and surveillance of epidemiological diseases will be scale up as these locations are prone to outbreaks. Referral pathways will be increased especially from community level to health facilities level. Community will be mobilised and sensitised on diseases prevention, immunisations, and antenatal and postnatal services importance.
Provision of Humanitarian Air Service in the Republic of South
Sudan (UNHAS) UNHAS will serve humanitarian agencies responding to the two famine-affected counties, Leer and Mayendit, and prioritized areas in Unity, Bahr El-Ghazal, Jonglei, and Upper Nile. At present, UNHAS operates regularly scheduled flights to prioritized areas (including Mayendit, Rubkona, Aweil, Koch, Old Fangak, Mayom, Ulang). Based on indications from the ICWG and its users, UNHAS will begin to serve Leer and two other destinations in Unity State and increase its frequency to Koch. Apart from its regular scheduled services to priority areas, this contribution will allow UNHAS to adequately respond to IRNAs, RRMs, and special missions to the priority areas. This project specifically targets humanitarian actors engaged in responding to prioritized areas and, in particular, those involved in IRNAs, RRMs, and special mission to these areas. It will be predominately served via helicopter in addition to fixed-wing air assets. Using its hub-and-spokes approach, fixed-wing will feed into helicopters that can serve hard-to-reach destinations (e.g. destinations that have inadequate landing strips for fixed-wing air assets).
