Integrated FSL (58%), Health (24%), Nutrition (18%) Food Crisis Response in West Darfur [CONSORTIUM] ltpgtConflict-induced malnutrition is pervasive, affecting 3.4 million children under 5 years, with 690 000 severely malnourished. An additional 2.7 million children face moderate malnutrition, along with over a million pregnant and lactating women. The conflict jeopardizes food security and healthcare access, and displaces families, exacerbating the crisis.3 Immediate, extensive interference is imperative to avert a humanitarian catastrophe. The consequences of the ongoing conflict are far-reaching, with severe malnutrition evolving as a silent epidemic, silently claiming lives, and compromising the well-being of the most vulnerable populations in West Darfur. As a result, vulnerable populations living in hard-to-reach areas of WD state are at a heightened risk of malnutrition, medical morbidities, mental health disorders amongst others and are also becoming more increasingly food unsecured.ltbrgtThis project aims to provide quality life-saving assistance to vulnerable population in underserved areas of WD states in localities of Krenik and Jebel Moon through provision of comprehensive programming in Food Security and Livelihood, health, and Nutrition services delivered through both pre-identified service delivery points and fixed health facilities in Krenik and Jebel Moon localities. The intervention will be carried by supporting re-activation and optimization of service provision through already identified static Health facilities and by establishing mobile health teams. Also vulnerable population would be empowered through agricultural inputs, livestock treatment and vaccination to enhance their economic strengthsltbrgtThe project has considered community participation from both men and women at every stage of the project, ensuring their voices are heard and considered. Cross-cutting themes such as protection mainstreaming, disability inclusion, gender mainstreaming, and accountability to affected populations have been fully integrated to implement safe and dignified programming. ltbrgtThe consortium (WR, IAS/LMI, VSF-G, CDF, SOR) targets to distribute seeds of the staple food crops (sorghum, millet, vegetables) to the most vulnerable farmers who have their own farm plots or who have other options. The partners will distribute non-hybrid, early maturing and adaptable seed varieties mobilized within the state. Provide agricultural training sessions, facilitating improved practices both at agricultural level and utilization level . Emergency livestock vaccination support. Emergency animal treatment. Multi-Purpose Cash Assistance to HHs facing crisis and emergency levels of food insecurity in areas where markets and supply chains are functioning in order to ensure the utilization of seed stock for planting and maintenance of herd stock. Health and nutrition services in five health facilities in above mentioned localities. ltbrgtThe consortium under this project has considered the conflict dynamics in WD. The RSF transitioned to the de facto ruling authority in WD, and encouraged local communities to form autonomous governing entities. This project adapts conflict sensitive approach by ensuring maximum consultation with local authorities and communities’ leaders at locality and state level. Services provision targets communities affected by conflict among the host communities, IDPs and nomadic tribe. This balanced approach of resources allocation is aimed at creating platforms for social cohesion and calm down the existing tension. Activities designed to meet the analysis on conflict dynamics include rehabilitation of water sources for livestock, provision of health and nutrition services in shared facilities, established and training of social cohesion committees under FSL sector among others. Focal point for conflict sensitivity for this consortium will be WRS Program Development and Quality Assurance Director. All the selected localities and sites are accessible and secure to allow implementation of this project. ltbrgtlt/pgtltpgt ltbrgtlt/pgt
