Replenishment of shelter and NFI contingency stock and the provision of dignified shelter and integrated infrastructure for vulnerable displaced families in north-west Syria (envelopes 2  3) ltp style="mso-margin-top-alt:automso-margin-bottom-alt:auto
line-height:normal" class="MsoNormal"gtWith this project, UNHCR will replenish its
contingency stock with 1,000 tents (targeting 1,000 HHs/5,000 indv) and
3,300 NFI kits (targeting 3,300 HHs/16,500 indv) and provide 750
dignified shelter units with accompanying infrastructure for 750 conflict and
earthquake-affected HHs (3,750 indv).ltbrgtlt/pgtltp style="margin-top:9.95ptmargin-right:0inmargin-bottom:

conflict and earthquake-affected families in NWS by providing
dignified shelter units with accompanying site infrastructure. The dignified
shelter units are 25.5 sqm and made of a steel structure frame with sandwich
panel walls and roof. Each shelter unit will include private cooking and
WASH facilities. The dignified shelters come with associated
infrastructure improvements including road gravelling, construction of drainage
and sewage networks and installation of solar streetlights. Comprehensive
site planning will ensure that the units are safe, immediately habitable, and
connectable to services in order to ensure dignified living
conditions. The dignified shelters will not only protect against harsh
weather conditions but also mitigate and reduce GBV risks. UNHCR will
implement the dignified shelter component of this project through Mercy
USA. UNCHR will be responsible for overseeing procurement, providing technical
expertise on the shelter installation and construction, and routinely monitoring
of the project from start to finish to ensure timely and quality implementation. UNHCR will also ensure close coordination with the UNHCR-led CCCM, SNFI and
Protection Clusters. MUSA will be responsible for conducting the procurement of shelter units, site preparations, infrastructure works and shelter installation. MUSA will aslo do quality assurance jointly with UNHCR.lt/pgtltp style="mso-margin-top-alt:automso-margin-bottom-alt:auto

The items will be rapidly procured and prepositioned in the UNHCR Gaziantep
warehouse as well as in partners’ warehouses inside NWS within the three
months' timeframe. The tents and NFIs will be distributed to displaced families in the event of new emergencies such as
displacements, hostilities, weather-related incidents and/or other sudden
shocks. The prepositioned tents and NFIs will be used to respond to
emergencies across the entire area of NWS. In line with the allocation paper,
needs and locations will be identified based on the occurrence of new
emergencies and displacement movements. The distribution will be fully
coordinated with the SNFI Cluster to ensure targeting underserved and
most-in-need locations and to avoid overlaps. The UNHCR family tent and NFI kit
is fully in line with the SNFI Cluster’s guidance note.lt/pgtltp style="mso-margin-top-alt:automso-margin-bottom-alt:auto
line-height:normal" class="MsoNormal"gtUNHCR will use its already contracted IPs for the distribution of the tents and
NFIs.  UNHCR can implement this
project at a relatively low cost as the distribution costs are already covered
by pre-existing partnership agreements. The same will
apply in case any additional partner is onboarded. Hence, no funds will be sub-granted
to IPs for the contingency stock component.  ltbrgtlt/pgtltp style="margin-bottom:9.95pt" class="MsoNormal"gt

Complementarity:lt/pgtltp style="mso-margin-top-alt:automso-margin-bottom-alt:auto
line-height:normal" class="MsoNormal"gt

This proposal is complementary with other funding sources as UNHCR
has CERF funding secured for another 300 dignified shelter units (implemented by
another UNHCR partner). UNHCR is also procuring tents and NFI through CERF and
government grants to partially cover its contingency stock. The funding from
SCHF RA3 will ensure that UNHCR reaches it contingency stock target and is able
to maintain sufficient stock levels while also implementing regular programs.
It will also allow UNHCR to further scale-up its dignified shelter program
and build the capacity of the partners to expand such activities in the
future. UNHCR will utilize its existing partnership with Muzun to
complement the dignified shelter intervention with a soft CCCM component,
to ensure sustainability and community ownership.
