Cash based Food assistance for the most vulnerable host community, IDPs and Returnees in Fangak, Jonglei State ltpgtltspan style="color: black font-family: Arial, sans-serif"gtThe proposed project will respond to the most urgent
dietary needs and diversification of vulnerable households in Fangak affected
by flooding, high food prices, insecurity and structural deficiencies. For
this, NPA will support 1,691 households (10,146 individuals) with cash-based
food assistance for a period of 3 months in three monthly rounds running from September to November 2023. The cash assistance will help targeted households to
meet their immediate dietary needs and hence improve their food security
situation, recover from crisis and support them towards an accelerated path to
build their resilience. Targeted beneficiaries will be oriented on the purpose
of the cash, the cash value and minimum food requirement and food consumption.
 Markets  Traders assessment will be
conducted after each cash distribution. Post distribution monitoring will be done in October and November and the last one in January to identify the impact of three cash distributions on the household.lt/spangtltbrgtlt/pgtltpgt

the prime movers of the project implementation process through their continuous
engagement in the project. At the start of the project, NPA will conduct
community mobilization activities to introduce the project. NPA will also hold
regular meetings with the PMCs and community members and conduct Post
Distribution Monitoring (PDM) to gather feedback on project implementation. NPA
will use a community-based complaints and feedback mechanism to provide a
platform for beneficiaries' active involvement in the project and avenues to
voice any issues of concern.lt/spangtlt/pgtltpgt
