Providing a life-saving emergency multipurpose cash assistance (MPCA) to Gazan households affected by the current conflict ltpgtThe scope of the proposed intervention is to provide one-off Emergency MPCA (EMPCA) to the households, affected by the current conflict in the Gaza Strip. PARC will target 1,650 households (9,240 individuals) by providing one-off EMPCA using the new transfer value endorsed by GCWG (1,000 ILS). ltbrgtThe proposed transfer value (MPCA) was calculated and endorsed by the Cash Working Group (CWG) based on the Survival-Minimum Expenditure Basket (SMEB), where the transfer value represents 80% of the SMEB. This assistance will allow households to cover their basic needs (food, health, hygiene, shelter, etc.) for a period of one month. Households targeted will be those displaced within the Gaza Strip, living either in designated emergency shelters, collective shelters, tents/self-made shelters or in hosting families. ltbrgtThe CWG specified that all IDPs should be considered eligible for MPCA considering their current hardship. In line with the approach proposed for other interventions, PARC  PUI will try to reach the most vulnerable IDPs prioritizing: large HHs, female-headed households, households headed by elderly, IDPs from the North of Gaza etc.).ltbrgtThe selection of the caseload will be closely coordinated with IDP WG and the Gaza CWG, using the lists provided by MoSD, local CBOs or relevant public entities (schools, community centers) and local committees as a primary source. In addition, PARC  PUI will allow referrals of special cases (i.e. patients, protection cases, etc.) from active actors. PARC  PUI will also consider cases through the feedback and response mechanism of PARC  PUI after making the needed verifications. Crosscheck with the centralized database at IDP WG/OCHA will be ensured to avoid duplications and thus issuing the final list of beneficiaries. It is worth mentioning that PUI will be in charge of coordinating with the relevant stakeholders and the overall supervision of the beneficiary selection process.ltbrgtThe cash transfer will be made through PALPAY, with whom PARC has signed a Framework Agreement to support cash interventions already carried out in the last months. With the CWG and other actors working in MPCA, PARC  PUI will be constantly monitoring PALPAY work to better assist the recipients of aid and reduce the risk of frauds/abuse perpetrated by vendors.ltbrgtThe proposed targeted areas are Khan Younis (50%), and Middle Area (50%). even though multiple displacements are often reported because of the ever-changing context and hence the proposed percentages might change in the future. In coordination with the Cash Working Group and other relevant clusters, PARC  PUI will closely monitor the situation of the local market to adapt its intervention should good and services’ accessibility, availability and overall functionality of the market change in a way that could potentially jeopardize the activities and even cause harm to the targeted population.ltbrgtThroughout the implementation period, PARC  PUI will integrate Protection and Inclusion, and coordinate actions with stakeholders to maximize impact and avoid duplication. They will implement a mechanism for complaints, feedback, and activity monitoring to ensure accountability to the affected population.ltbrgtPARC will manage the grant, facilitate beneficiary selection with PUI, coordinate with PALPAY for payment disbursements, liaise with local communities, and oversee the cashing-out process. PUI will handle coordination with entities such as the CWG, MOSD, and IDP WG, select beneficiaries, and monitor and evaluate program effectiveness, including conducting PDM. ltbrgtPUI will also undertake market monitoring with the CWG, provide technical support to PARC, boost staff capacity on EMPCA nuances, and ensure adherence to protection principles and address issues like GBV and PSEA.ltbrgtlt/pgt
