Holistic protection program through qualitative local partnerships /
Комплексна програма захисту шляхом якісних локальних партнерств ltpgtThis project aims to cultivate a safer and more supportive environment for vulnerable populations in small communities or hromadas across seven oblasts in Ukraine heavily affected by war. By combining mental health services, case management, legal aid, awareness campaigns, and capacity strengthening,  and knowledge exchange, the project aims to contribute to the overall well-being and protection of the affected communities.lt/pgtltpgtltbrgtA fundamental aspect of this initiative is the engagement of local partnerships and a commitment to the localization of humanitarian aid. Implemented by a national organization in collaboration with local Civil Society Organizations (CSOs), the project ensures that interventions are not only effective and coordinated but also contextually relevant, contributing to the sustainable development of the communities served. This approach fosters a sense of ownership and empowerment among local stakeholders, thereby strengthening the overall impact and effectiveness of the project. By tailoring interventions to the unique needs of local communities in Ukraine, the project strives to build a sustainable foundation for mental health recovery, laying the groundwork for a more secure and resilient future.ltbrgtltbrgtlt/pgtltpgtNGORC will also play a lead role in supporting in the implementation of project activities by project partners. This entails sharing knowledge, guidance, and best practices, ensuring that interventions align seamlessly with the needs and resources of the communities. Recognizing that all our local partners have varied levels of expertise, the project is committed to offering targeted capacity-strengthening initiatives. If partners lack specific knowledge, training sessions will be conducted to bridge gaps and enhance their understanding of project goals and protection mainstreaming. In instances where local partners may face constraints, the project will try to complement their existing capacities. Open and transparent communication channels will be established, fostering a collaborative environment where local partners feel free to express challenges and seek guidance.lt/pgtltpgtThe project aims to build comprehensive approach to support children, caregivers, and survivors of gender-based violence (GBV) in Dnipropetrovska, Donetska, Zaporizka, Kharkivska, Mykolaivska, Khersonska, Odeska oblasts, while also extending care to the well-being of humanitarian workers working in these areas. The mental health support component for humanitarian workers is deemed crucial, as evidenced by our support to approximately 300 humanitarian workers and volunteers last year. Organizations still report unmet needs for this kind of support for humanitarian workers, making it an integral part of our mission.lt/pgt
