2018 BI4004 Dukuze Promoting Quality Education in Safe Schools Burundi has experienced multiple periods of unrest since its independence (civil and inter-ethnic wars, political crises, etc.). As recent developments, the decision of the ruling party in April 2015 to present the candidacy of Burundi President for the third term and the popular protest that followed plunged Burundi into a political crisis with serious implications at socio-economic and human rights levels. There is no armed conflict in the country at present, but the political crisis and subsequent economic sanctions have created serious economic problems in the country. According to the Institute of Statistics and Economic Studies of Burundi (ISTEBU), more than 65% of Burundians live below the poverty line. Almost the whole population is affected by this crisis, but children who were already in vulnerable situations (those who are out of school, heads of household, young mothers, IDPs, etc.) are more affected than others, and their rights are violated. Some of them do not go to school because of the lack of school materials or fees and have to slide towards child labor. On the other hand, even for children who still have parents and be in their families, rural families’ livelihoods have been severely affected by the crisis that undermined agricultural activities, disrupted rural markets and negatively affected an already stagnant economic situation. These factors all contributed to: increase of food prices, reduced purchasing power, loss of jobs and income opportunities pushing people to adopt negative coping mechanisms such as: reduction of expenditure on agricultural inputs, begging, selling of farm land. See: https://www.unocha.org/legacy/southern-and-eastern-africa/country-profiles/burundi and https://reliefweb.int/report/burundi/wfp-burundi-crisis-regional-impact-situation-report-22-31-may-2016 As a result, the number of vulnerable children is increasing alarmingly. Contribute to improving the quality of education by facilitating knowledge and experience exchange between teachers and promoting a protective learning environment in basic schools. Outcome 1: Teachers from the basic schools in the 5 beneficiary communes actively participate in a regular knowledge and experience exchange for the development of their professional skills. Outcome 2: Mechanisms for prevention and response to protection risks are reinforced in the 12 pilot schools of the project. Outcome 3: Teachers and children from the pilot schools (especially vulnerable children) have been materially supported for the smooth running of the courses (e.g. books, benches, etc.). Children aged between 6 and 18 years old, especially vulnerable girls and boys (out of school, heads of household, young mothers, returnees, children from very poor families) and those affected by violence including sexual violence; teachers, local education authorities.

2017 UG056 Recovery and Resilience for Refugees and Vulnerable Children in Uganda The Bidibidi refugee settlement in Yumbe district was opened early August, 2016, and grew from a largely empty overgrown savannah land to a sprawling settlement currently hosting around 270.000 refugees, making it one of the largest refugee hosting sites worldwide. According to TPO, the refugee children and young people in Bidibidi experience and enact significant distress in response to their circumstances and experiences. There is very limited mental health and psychosocial support available in the Bidibidi settlement, for which the gap in services providing life skills to children and youth is significant. The main goal of this project is therefore to build the life skills among children and youth, imparting a supporting environment for them at home by also directly targeting caregivers of the children and youth involved in the programme. The objectives of the project are to enable children and young people to build their resilience through the development of positive social and emotional skills allowing them to cope with their experiences of conflict, displacement, and vulnerability and better prepare them to withstand future shocks. War Child Holland will fulfill these objectives by using its unique play based methodology as a foundation for community engagement. By focusing on the development of critical life skills such as teamwork, communication and confidence and alongside this, facilitating the opportunity for youth to engage in leadership roles in their communities, youth will be empowered to make positive life choices.
2015 CD125 Peace Begins with Children Phase I Peace treaties to try and halt the civil war in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) may have been signed ‐ but children continue to suffer from the sporadic violent unrest between the Congolese army and rebel militias in the east of the country.

2019 NLD30 *Communities in the Driver's Seat Systemic and enduring child protection challenges demand new and effective approaches, particularly in volatile humanitarian contexts. Building on evidence that community-owned and -driven approaches bring about improved outcomes, this project tests the feasibility of one bottom-up approach to child protection with two applications. The approach incorporates actions to address a major contributing factor exacerbating child protection risks, stigmatization, and draws on the power of partnerships: expert knowledge on change management, coaching, data science and communications, informed by ‘design thinking’. The aim of the project is to produce evidence on a standardised community-driven approach, easy to understand and implement yet adaptable to any humanitarian context. This allows for scale-up and dissemination among the wider humanitarian community. This project is a close collaboration with NGO partners such as Save the Children, TPO Uganda, Stichting Elva and private entities such as Vandejong, Ten Have Change Management, the Nomad Coach, Butterfly Works and Stichting Media and Tech for Development.
2017 LB061 LB4006 Stronger Home, Brighter Future Conflict and Consequences: The majority, if not all, of the children who come into the Home of Hope come from a background of violence, abuse, neglect and exploitation. Many of them are street children who are forced, usually by their family or child labour ringleaders, to beg or steal in order to bring in money. Others come from even more heart-rending situations, such as sex-trafficking, drug experimentation, and even human organ trafficking. The centre hosts and average of 200 children per year coming from different backgrounds and nationalities, across all of Lebanon. Children may stay a few days, up to years, as there are no criteria for placement. UPEL, MoSA are referring children to Home of Home when enforcing law 422 (children at risk/victims of violence), and the police. MoSA lacks an alternative care system that promotes family based solutions. Project aim: General Objective: Contribute to improved care for the marginalized children residing in Home of Hope Specific Objectives: Increase HOH’s staff competencies and organisational capacity to address the needs of marginalized, abandoned children in their residential facility. Expected Results: War Child is proposing a long-term phase that aims at: 1. Providing legal support and coaching to social workers while working on legal case management as per National SOPs for children without identification and documentation 2. Creating an effective coordination mechanism between UPEL and Home of Hope social workers to integrate family support in case management 3. Developing a solid network of specialized service support between Home of Hope and local and international stakeholders 4. Ongoing capacity and competence building for Home of Hope staff on child protection and psychosocial support.

2018 UG4005 Innovative and inclusive accelerated education programme for refugee and host community children (INCLUDE) This action aligns with current movements and best-practices within the international community and humanitarian response, with Uganda at the forefront globally, to increase efficacy and sustainability of humanitarian interventions. A collaborative and consolidated approach underlies our education response through a consortium which will bring effectiveness to Uganda's Education in Emergencies response by applying standardized approaches, improved coordination, harmonization and communication among leading EiE actors on Accelerated Education Programs (AEP), Finn Church Aid (FCA), Norwegian Refugee Council (NRC), War Child Holland (WCH), and led by Save the Children (SC) (see annex 2 for list of acronyms). Uganda is host to over 1,398,991 refugees and asylum-seekers, most of whom were from South Sudan, with over 61% being children - 682,000 at school-age but only 39% (267,337) have access to some kind of education services. The Action's purpose is for conflict affected children (host and refugee) in West Nile to receive quality accelerated education, be protected and have increased personal wellbeing. The action will provide over aged children with access to quality and protective accelerated learning opportunities including Can't Wait To Learn (CWTL). In addition, school-aged refugee and host-community children will benefit from psychosocial support and protection services at AE centres (TeamUp). Government and NGO systems will be strengthened to deliver quality AE, including CWTL services at district government and community levels. To complement these approaches, this action will pilot innovative EiE solutions to enhance the provision of safe, inclusive and quality education, streamlining the Quality Learning Environment (QLE). Each element of the intervention is aligned with the Global AE Principles, which provide a core framework for the consortium's quality improvement of AE Centres.

2019 SY4011 Establishing PSS, case management and non formal education services in underserved areas in Northeast Syria "Children and communities in Northeast Syria have severe and complex needs in an unstable environment with little support from external agencies. Moreover, since October 2017 as more areas have been retaken from IS control, over 315,000 people have returned to their areas of origin in Raqqa and Deir Ez-zor, pressuring already-fragile basic service provision. War Child, through its implementing partners, will set up safe spaces to implement PSS activities and non-formal education – located in formal schools in available classrooms where possible, and in non-formal centres in the community where access to formal schools is limited."
