Building Community Resilience to Climatic Shocks in Improving Food Security, Caring and WASH practices Operational support for the project that seeks to improve the nutritional status of key vulnerable groups (including pregnant and lactating mothers, adolescent mothers, people with disabilities and people living with HIV [PLWHIV]) who have additional nutrition requirement and barriers in accessing them. The project will address the underlying causes of malnutrition and target the entire community with increased food security, access to WASH and improved caring practices.

The project will target, 11,640 people on the Copperbelt Province. The Copperbelt province has high prevalence of chronic under-nutrition, yet has a complete under-representation of nutrition support. The Copperbelt Province is one of only 3 provinces (of 10) that is not currently covered by major nutrition programmes targeting pregnant women and children. In the target areas, which mainly includes the rural districts of the Copperbelt, 36% of children under 5 have stunted growth; 14% are underweight; and 5% suffer wasting, pointing to acute malnutrition. Severe malnutrition case fatality rate per 1,000 admissions (1-5 years) stands at 174.7 or 17.47% (Copperbelt Provincial Medical Office, 2015).

Right Here, Right Now 2 - ARROW Right Here Right Now 2 (RHRN2) builds on the successes of its predecessor Right Here Right Now (2016-2020) funded by the Dutch Ministry of Foreign Affairs. The new partnership, RHRN2 (2021-2025) consists of consortium partners Rutgers (lead), AMPF, ARROW, Bandhu, CHOICE, RHU, and RNW Media, and technical partners Dance4Life and IPPF AR. 
The strategic objective of RHRN2 is for young people in all their diversity to enjoy their sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR) in gender-just societies. By placing young people at the forefront of the partnership, RHRN2 seeks:
• to increase public support for SRHR;
