2018 BI4002 Building children's resilience through protection and psychosocial support in Burundi Burundi has experienced political and security instability for several decades, making it today one of the poorest countries in the world. Burundi is ranked 184th out of the 188 countries listed in the March 21, 2017 report on the ranking of countries at the level of the Human Development Index (HDI) of the United Nations Development Program (UNDP). This context has been worsen by the political and economic crisis that began in 2015 linked to the third controversial mandate of the ruling president. This has resulted in internal and external displacement of Burundians, half of whom are children under 18 years of age. In this context of severe poverty and political instability, community-based child protection mechanisms are no longer dynamic or even don't exist in some parts of the country, exposing children to multiple protection risks: heavy work , sexual exploitation, denial of the right to education, corporal punishment, non-registration of births in the registry of civil status. These risks occur in both households and schools, and push several thousands of children to drop out of school or fail each year. This project aims to create and strengthen community-based child protection mechanisms, help them creating and implementing risk reduction plans and provide opportunities for children to play and express themselves, in order to develop their resilience. Overall goal: Contribute to strengthening the wellbeing of children and community based child protection systems in Bubanza, Bujumbura, Cibitoke and Rumonge provinces. Results: (i) The targeted communities have improved their knowledge about child rights and protection. (ii) Community child protection structures including school management committees and service providers are actively involved in the prevention and response to protection cases, in a coordinated way. (iii) Children have access to recreational and life skills activities and use them to express themselves and improve their wellbeing.

2015 LB037 Social Cohesion Lebanon has experienced a massive influx of refugees in recent years - including more than one million arrivals from neighbouring Syria. This huge influx has put further pressure on both Lebanons infrastructure and the fragile economic and security situation of the country. This initiative is designed to promote social cohesion between Lebanese host communities and Syrian refugees. Awareness-raising activities such as performing arts activities help increase participation and provide psychosocial support.
2018 LB4011 SHIELD - A protective environment for adolescent growth Children and youth, who number 53.5% of the total refugee population in Lebanon continue to face complex protection issues and 59% of Syrian refugees between 3-18 years old are out of formal schooling. Violence, exploitation and abuse against children in the home, communities and schools are some of the main child protection concerns in Lebanon. In addition, families increasingly resort to negative coping mechanisms, relying on children as young as five as the primary breadwinners to make ends meet. The program aims at addressing the protection needs of at risk adolescent girls and boys through an integrated education in emergencies, psychosocial and protection response and includes referral to appropriate services in other projects. The program targets vulnerable refugee and host community adolescents at-risk of or who have dropped out of school due to child labour, child marriage, and girls being homebound. While the main target group for the proposed action are adolescents, the project also aims to reach parents and caregivers as well as community leaders, communities, service-providers, and other influencers on local and national levels to build a stronger protective environment for vulnerable adolescents. War Child Holland (War Child) will build upon its experience in Lebanon since 2007 and will lead the consortium with Plan International (Plan), Lebanese Organisation for Studies and Training (LOST), and Akkar Network for Development (AND). The four partners will implement an integrated Protection and Education programme for adolescents and their caregivers, as well as integrate their response with other priority sectors (Health, Wash, Food Security, and Livelihood) through close coordination with other NGO and government service providers

2017 SY103 SY4001 Education, Child Protection and Psychosocial support for vulnerable children in Syria. Conflict and Consequences: Since the beginning of the war in 2011, civilians in Syria have borne the burden not only of the conflict, but also of the complete disregard of International Humanitarian Law (IHL) and International Human Rights Law by all armed actors. In 2016 the Government of Syria (hereinafter GoS) with the support of the Russian Government intensified airstrikes on opposition controlled locations and retook control of vast areas previously under control of various rebels factions. The situation in Central Syria appears extremely volatile, with increased attacks on Ghouta and an on-going process of increased violence coupled with reconciliation negotiations in Homs. It is expected that Eastern Ghouta and Homs will witness increase violence in 2017. As a consequence, grave child rights violations continue unabated, with countless children killed and maimed due to persistent use of explosive weapons in civilian areas. Recruitment, abduction, arrests and coercion of children into the conflict is widespread and child labour is reported in 82% of surveyed sub districts. Forced and repeated displacements, family separation, and the disintegration of social support structures have increased pressure on families and communities, leading to negative coping strategies, increasingly reported in all current locations, accompanied by domestic violence especially against women and girls. As for education, over 6 million children and education personnel are estimated to be in need of educational assistance. 1.75 million children and youth are out of school and 1.35 million at risk of dropping out. One in three schools is either damaged, destroyed, used as collective shelter or otherwise inaccessible. A needs assessment conducted by WCH and partners in January and February 2017 confirmed a lack of access to basic education services and increasing protection risks for children and communities. Insecurity and attacks on education led to unsafe and limited learning opportunities and low quality of education services. Project aim: General Objective: To strengthen children’s and communities’ resilience and improve children’s well-being. Specific Objectives: SO1. The protective environment of vulnerable children affected by the conflict has improved. SO2. Vulnerable children affected by the conflict have reduced distress (PSS). SO3. Vulnerable children affected by the conflict have increased access to quality education. Project Design Output/Results: 1.1. Children, caregivers, families and communities have increased child protection knowledge and skills 1.2. Vulnerable children are identified and referred to specialized services 2. Children & caregivers have identified, learned and practiced positive coping mechanism and life skills. 3. Vulnerable children affected by the conflict are provided with non-formal education
