2024– Emergency WASH Response for 214,028 Cholera affected people in Localities of Kosti, Guli, AD Diwaim and AL Gatina, White Nile state ltpgt2024 - Emergency WASH Response for 214,028 Cholera Affected People at Kosti, Guli,nbsp Ad Diwaim and AL Gatina localities in White Nile state is aimed to Combat Cholera in Sudan generally and in White Nile specifically. For this project SOS Sahel will target/cover two localities of Kosti and Guli while AAH nbspwill target/cover the two localities of AD Diwaim and AL Gatina. Due to the recent conflict in Sudan WNS received more than 25% of the total IDPs who fled from Khartoum. IDPs at the target four localities experienced a shortage of basic needs such as food, water, latrines, NFIs, shelters, and sanitation (soap, hygiene and dignity kit for women) which might increase degree of Cholera infection. Cholera infection scored 641 case loads and 25 death cases with 3.9 death degree in term of 87 case loads 0 death in Guli, 11 cases 1 death in Kosti, 422 cases 22 death in Ad Diwaim and 20 cases 2 death in Al Gatina at the aforementioned localities in WNS – Source of information, SMoH. The project is planning to provide WASH services to the IDPs and host communities for better health environment in general, to decrease cholera case loads and mortality. To combat Cholera outbreak at the target localities, the project will construct 5 solar water points and provide (2 in Guli and 3 in 3 in Kosti), 20 Tiga tank with capacity 1000 liters to increase equitable access to safe drinking water. These two activities will be complemented by supply of 2 chlorine dozing devices for water disinfection, supply of 200 cartons of chlorine tablets 1.67g and provision of 2 dilagua kits to ensure water quality (free of chemical, physical and bacteriological contaminations). To raise awareness of the target community about Cholera prevention measures through home and daily monitoring visits, the project will support the line ministry with Projector  laud hailer, train 30 Hygiene promoters in Guli locality and 30 Hygiene promoters in Kosti and support them with DSA to perform their task properly. To facilitate Hygiene Promoters tasks the project will rent 2 vehicles for two months and print IEC materials to disseminate hygiene and sanitation related messages to the target beneficiaries. Likewise the project will do maintenance for 2 vehicles of the local government (one in Guli and one in Kosti) to ease their daily transportation and cholera outbreak relevant monitoring visits. To improve community access to improved sanitation services, the project will construct 2 Incinerators and conduct 10 dispose Solid and medical waste management campaigns (one incinerator and 5 campaigns in Guli and the other incinerator and 5 campaigns in Kosti) to safe disposal of the medical and solid waste which will decrease number of flies and other insects accordingly cholera transmission degree will decrease as well. Moreover 50 public latrines will be dislodged to free from faecal waste and safely dispose in term of 30 latrines in Kosti and 20 latrines in Gulli. in addition to rehabilitation of two water pipelines in AD Diwaim and Al Gatina localities the project will train 60 Hygiene promoters, support MoH monitoring and conduct chlorination for the water sources at the two localities in addition to train more 45 community volunteers for cholera prevention and control. PPE will be distributed to more than 1000 HHs in AD Diwaim and Algatina.nbspFor better hygiene promotion the project will distribute 20 HWFs in Kosti and 30 HWFs in Guli, 80 soap cartons in Guli and 20 soap cartons in Kosti to encourage community hand washing process- using water and soap. For proper project documentation visibility activities will be conducted in both localities.
