Enhancing emergency WASH support services and Improving access to quality water through water system rehabilitation The project interventions are designed to achieve the Cluster and Strategic Objectives outlined in the ASO1 and ASO2.By involving stakeholders, the proposed interventions will provide lifesaving humanitarian assistance and protection to the most vulnerable people, emphasizing underserved areas with high severity needs.International Humanitarian Relief(IHR),in partnership with Minber Alsham as a consortium,are planning to respond to 23,017 IDPs in 12 camps and 149,450 in 5 communities (Jalma, Kafr Safra,Jandiris,Bafloor,TalAlKAramej)to ensure an improved, sustainable access to WASH services and supplies according to specific details in Annex C IHR will target 5 camps and 5 communities. While Minber AlSham will target 7 camps.To meet the massive needs for big number of affected populations the consortium decided to ensure a better-quality response relying on consortium parties' excellent WASH knowledge, experience and full access to the whole of NWS.In line with the WASH cluster strategy in the allocation paper,the project will participate in reduci the massive reliance on the costly non-sustainable direct provision water trucking,desludging etc,towards a more cost-effective, cheaper,and more efficient response.We will connect the targeted camps and informal settlements to the existing nearby water and sanitation system.The project aims to rehabilitate the water network and power it with a hybrid energy system.We aim to ensure improved access of host communities and IDPs in four communities in Afrin and Harm sub-districts through rehabilitation and operational support for the water system,IHR will rehabilitate four water stations divided into three water stations in three villages Kafar Safra, Jandairis, Jalma in Afrin district, and the fourth one will serve the Islamona camp Harim district. Totally(149,450 individuals)will receive safe water services from this activity by coordination of the LCs to ensure sustainability after completing the rehabilitation and the maintenance of the equipment installed, the consortium will support the establishment of a Water Management Unit(WMU)to support and ensuring the efficiency of the project after closing.For three months,IHR will support the running costs for the four stations(operations cost and tests of the flow of the well).In parallel,WMU members will receive technical training on operation and maintenance activities and implement a cost recovery mechanism.The collecting fees by the WMU after completing the project will be used to purchase the diesel for the generator and the spare parts.Besides,the project will be including rehabilitation of the sewage systems in two communities(Tal Alkaramaej and Bafloor)that is gradually deteriorating due to damage and lack of maintenance and implement a new system to meet the critical need after the residents' numbers doubled in targeted camps the consortium will provide basic WASH and Hygiene services, adequate drinking safe water via water trucking(35 liters per capita per day)while assuring the water's quality through chlorination and tested.To address the gap in latrines numbers in the targeted camps by constructing 17 new latrines, gender-sensitive block in(Alzaitoun and Kortek camps) with a distribution of 40 water tanks in (10 in Alzaitoun, 20 Rahamat llaramel and 10 in Kortek camps) .The awareness sessions will be integrated with distribution HK to displaced families in targeted camps. Along with this service .The same beneficiaries who receive the Hygiene kits and Hygiene promotions sessions will receive the protection sessions. Other integration services will be delivered through this intervention like solid waste management, cleaning the latrines by hiring cleaners from both genders, constructing high elevated tanks, and relying on gravity distribution to the water points inside camps.It is worth mentioning that the consortium is already providing some activities in 9 camps out of the 12 targeted.
