Providing quality psychosocial support and timely access to services for Gender Based Violence survivors in conflict affected Communities in New Fangak County of Jonglei state. Gender Based Violence project is targeting 5,000 vulnerable, IDPs and host communities to provide quality psychosocial support and timely access to services for Gender Based Violence survivors in conflict affected Communities in Fangak County. According to the protection trends paper No.4 (May 2015),  Gender Based Violence remained a serious problem that has resulted into multiple displacement characterized by cases of Sexual violence such as rape, sexual harassment, sexual exploitation, abduction and survival sex were increasingly reported inside and outside POC sites. Women sometimes found it necessary to engage in “survival sex” to obtain food, services or safety and women often worked for long hours to obtain food for their families exposing themselves to Sexual Gender Based Violence. According to the protection trends paper No.5 (July 2015), wide spread of sexual violence remained a deplorable feature of the conflict, with evidence of deliberate ethnic targeting of and reprisals against women and girls. Women continued to be exposed to physical and sexual assault, rape, emotional and forced marriage. Reflecting the conflict’s wider dynamics, a higher percentage of survivors identified the alleged perpetrators of this abuse as members of the armed forces and groups.
With all the above mentioned needs, Nile Hope will intervene through Provision of psychosocial support to Gender Based Violence survivors using appropriate case management tools and make appropriate referrals Engage Gender Based Violence survivors and other vulnerable women and girls in weekly group psychosocial activities (bead work and knitting of bed sheets) at the already existing women safe spaces and involve them in various discussions to identify protection risks and mitigation measures which are income generating distribute solar lamps to vulnerable women and girls as a risk mitigation measures  distribute dignity kits to women and girls of reproductive age (15 to 45yrs) to live dignified life Strengthen the capacity of frontline service providers (case managers, police, health care workers  (CMR) and community leaders) on Gender Based Violence (training case managers on the GBVIMS tools and case management process), sensitize them on the existing referral pathway putting into consideration the guiding principle and survivor centered approach there is need for Nile Hope staff to continue creating awareness on Gender Based Violence concerns, consequences, and availability of services for Gender Based Violence survivors and Strengthen the coordination networks to enhance the availability of services, sensitization of service providers on the existing referral pathway and ensure that survivor needs are met.
Provision of emergency life saving nutrition intervention for SAM treatment and IYCF activities to the IDPs in displacement camps in Wau Town, Western Bahr el Ghazal. Fighting that erupted on 24th June, 2016 around Wau town in Western Bahr el Ghazal forced tens of thousands of people from their homes and communities, including around 12,000 who have sought shelter near the UNMISS base. Preliminary report estimate indicates that more than 37,000 people are displaced within Wau town, including at the Catholic Church, South Sudan Red Cross compound, St Joseph’s, Nazarieth, Lokoloko and UNMISS protected sites. An additional 35,000 to 50,000 people are estimated to be displaced in the Greater Baggari Area, including in Bringi, Ngo Halima, Tadu, and Ngisa. AFOD with support from UNICEF is responding to the emergency nutrition needs of the IDPs within Wau. Together with other partners in collaboration with local health authority, AFOD expect to reach all children and women especially pregnant amp lactating women in need of urgent emergency nutritional services aimed at saving lives and lessening the impact of the displacement. The food and nutrition security situation of the IDPs and vulnerable communities in South Sudan remain critical and interventions to prevent the deterioration of the nutritional status of the children and general population while building amp strengthening local capacity for effective delivery is what AFOD south Sudan prioritized in this response.
Procurement of pipeline supplies for management of MAM cases and emergency food ration South Sudan has one of the highest malnutrition rates. Factors such as sub-optimal Infant and Young Children Feeding (IYCF) practices (untimely introduction of complementary feeds and poor quality and inadequate quantity of complementary foods), poor WASH facilities and practices have always contributed to malnutrition. However, this further deterioration seen for the first time in the Equatorias is attributable to insecurity, the economic crisis, decreased household purchasing power due to local currency devaluation, high food prices, and disruptions to livelihood activities. To respond to this situation, WFP will provide lifesaving treatment for moderate acute for children 6-59 months. Children identified with MAM will be treated with RUSF as per the national protocol. TSFP outreach services will be put in place in locations far from the static sites though partners. TSFP sites will be implemented with the Outpatient Therapeutic Programme (OTP) to ensure the continuum of treatment between SAM and MAM.

Provision of life-saving Shelter and Non Food Item assistance to conflict affected populations in Western Bahr el Ghazal. The following CHF project will be used to fill critical Shelter-NFI gaps in Wau Town and surrounding locations in Western Bahr el Ghazal (WBeG), following the displacement of at least 80,000 people resulting from the heavy fighting during the last weeks of June. The International Organization for Migration (IOM) has been holding the Shelter-NFI Cluster State Focal Point (SFP) position in WBeG for the past 5 years. Given the complexity of the current needs, IOM will prioritize the funding of the project to scale up the SFP position with a permanent international staff based in Wau. Additionally, the Shelter-NFI frontline presence will be consolidated by establishing a team that will provide assistance on a regular basis to the displaced populations in Wau Town and the surrounding areas. While IOM’s team provided the first phase of the emergency response during the first weeks of the crisis, as displacement protracts and security remains tense and militarized, the Shelter-NFI Cluster expects that continued needs in the area will persist. A second phase of the emergency will consist of more comprehensive Shelter and NFI assistance focusing on established camps and sites. Finally, the Shelter-NFI cluster also foresees that, if tensions do not diminish, further waves of displacement could arise increasing the needs for additional assistance in the coming months. IOM, through this project, will secure a team dedicated to both coordination and frontline response in Wau Town and the surrounding areas. However, the overall objective is for the team to have some degree of flexibility to respond in neighboring areas and states where the effects of the Wau conflict may extend to.
Nutrition assistance to the population affected by the conflict in Wau This project aims to treat moderate acute malnutrition among children under 5 years old as well as pregnant and lactating women among conflict-affected population in and around Wau.
Emergency Nutrition Intervention in Unity State; Koch County and Bentiu POC Conflict continued to uproot and displace households, preventing many from planting and forcing them to sell off assets and livestock for food, and breaking down the functionality of markets. The internal and external conflicts always result in displacement of people thus increasing tensions and raising the level of vulnerability among county residents in competition for scarce resources.  Levels of acute malnutrition remain critical in Koch and Bentiu POC as well as many other parts of Unity state. An IPC report September 2015 shows that the food security situation of an estimated 30,000 people in Unity State (particularly Leer, Guit, Koch and Mayendit counties) is extremely concerning as there is likelihood of a famine occurring in the next few months if urgent humanitarian access is not provided. This project will support the call for scale up of nutrition activities in Bentiu POC and respond to nutrition needs by targeting IDPs and host communities in Koch County. The project is designed to provide both preventive and curative services. Treatment of severe acute malnutrition (SAM) is provided to prevent children under five from death. Treatment of moderate acute malnutrition (MAM) aims to improve the health of children under five and pregnant and lactating women (PLWs), thereby reducing the prevalence of severe acute malnutrition. Awareness campaigns on topics including IYCF and hygiene promotion will be provided to the community. World Relief works closely with the Koch County Health Department (KCHD) to ensure that the community of Koch receives the needed services. UNICEF and WFP will provide food rations for the treatment of SAM and MAM in children and PLW in Koch County of Unity State. Children under five, and PLWs, as well as other vulnerable groups, will be screened in the community. Those found to be malnourished will be referred to OTP/TSFP for nutritional and medical assessment. Beneficiaries enrolled in the OTP or TSFP programs will be given bracelets to keep regardless of whether they are transferred to different components of the nutrition intervention or not. Thee bracelets will support in easier tracking of beneficiaries and avoiding duplication at multiple centers. Once the patients are discharged, the bracelets will be recovered. The bracelets will be color coded for each nutrition site. This CHF funding will complement funds and/or GIKs from other donors, namely Unicef, WFP and OFDA.
Provision of integrated lifesaving nutrition services to children and women in Tonj South and Tonj East The USD 227,947.45 project for "Provision of integrated lifesaving nutrition services to children and women in Tonj South and Tonj East" comes as an  intervention for the vulnerable population of about 17.6% (indicated by GAM rates) at risk of malnutrition. 
WFP currently supports the implementation of Targeted Supplementary Feeding Program (TSFP) and Blanket Supplementary Feeding Program (BSFP) in Tonj South and Tonj East mostly with nutritional supplies of up to 813.23 Metric Tons the project however is short of staff and technical capacity, site structure for appropriate service provision as well as equipment like weighing scales for MAM services. 
These funds from SSHF will supplement the WFP funding to provide the additional quality to service provision. SSHF funds will increase staff capacity the number of staff working in the program, enhance their technical capacity, increase health education initiative at both site and community levels by increasing Information, Education and Communication (IEC) materials, improving data management through training and installation of equipment to reach a total of 30,159 individuals with various nutrition services 14,518 children will be screened for Malnutrition 4560 (2505 boys and 2055 girls) will be admitted for MAM and 1,208 will be referred for SAM treatment (181 SAM with complications and 1,027 SAM without complications), 8,828 PLWs will be screened with 4,336 admitted for MAM treatment.
Support  vulnerable host community, IDPs, and pastoral households  to continue to have  regular access to food , protect and rehabilitate livelihoods  in Panyijiar County (Unity) through provision of production inputs The overall objective of the IRC’s proposed project is to improve food availability and access to vulnerable households in crisis and emergency phases through the protection and rehabilitation of their crop, vegetable and livestock assets. Through the proposed activities, the IRC will ensure a timely preposition of assorted crop seeds—in particular sorghum, maize, cowpeas and groundnuts—and tools, providing beneficiaries with the means to reestablish their own production and help them address the threat of hunger. Also, the IRC will ensure the beneficiaries receive timely agricultural inputs. To support the pastoralist households, refresher trainings of Community Animal Health Workers (CAHWs) and provision of treatment vouchers of livestock (targeting milk cows and small ruminants that remain at home when the main herd leaves for low land grazing areas during the dry season) will be supported. Also the fisher folk will be supported with fishing gear and skills through training on fish preservation.

The IRC will conduct vulnerability mapping during payam consultative meetings at the start of the project, involving key community leaders including women, village headmen and sub-chiefs. Households that are extremely food insecure as a result of the severe loss of assets, including food production inputs, and are unable to support themselves will be prioritized for agricultural inputs and livestock support. In most agro-pastoralists’ communities in South Sudan, women are the main providers  of the  daily food for their families while men are considered to be providing security and herding livestock. However women continue to be unequally affected by food insecurity and have less access to land and credit than men, limiting their ability to purchase agricultural tools, seeds, or hire labor that could increase their crop production [USAID Fact Sheet: Food Security amp Gender 2010].  Reduction in food intake as a coping mechanism has greatly affected the female population. During targeting and implementation, priority will be given to women and people with disabilities and their specific needs will be addressed.
Mitigating GBV Risks and Strengthening Life-Saving Response Services for Survivors UNICEF plans to strengthen Gender Based Violence (GBV) prevention and response work by supporting other clusters to strengthen GBV prevention and risk mitigation through their sectoral interventions. UNICEF will work closely with the Health and Camp Coordination and Camp Management (CCCM) clusters to not only reduce risk of exposure to GBV and prevent it from happening in the first place but also to promote dignity, safety, and participation of women and girls. In addition, capacity building with the Health sector will include life-saving response services, namely clinical management of rape (CMR) training and development of systems for tracking essential CMR drugs, in close coordination with both the GBV sub-cluster and the CMR task force within the RH working group.  

The 2015 IASC Guidelines, Integrating Gender Based Violence Interventions in Humanitarian Action, will be used to form the foundation of this work and guide all steps of the process. The guidelines were launched in South Sudan in March 2016. UNICEF, partnering with the WASH Cluster, has led the mainstreaming in WASH interventions in South Sudan and the achievements have been cited globally as best-practice. UNICEF, in partnership with IMC, has already been providing similar support to the Health sector, through a mobile CMR training team. 

UNICEF will build on this experience and success, while making use of in-house expertise on GBV prevention and response, to address gaps in CMR coverage throughout the country and support both Health and CCCM to more systematically integrate GBV considerations into their sectoral programming. Activities will take place at national level, as well as field locations of Juba, Yei and Wau, plus additional locations for CMR training to be identified in collaboration with relevant health actors. To keep up with the rapidly changing environment, a mobile CMR training team will be supported to provide trainings to local staff on CMR including administration of essential medicines and care for survivors. This work will be done in close collaboration with the national GBV Sub-Cluster along, state-level GBV working groups (where available), and the Reproductive Health working group. Trainings will be complemented by practical, on-the-ground support to colleagues working in CCCM and Health, including activities like joint monitoring activities (such as safety audits and facility monitoring) and structured action planning. This will seek to strengthen quality of services but also promote and increase system wide accountability for GBV prevention and response in South Sudan.
Creating zones of peace support to IDPs, Returnees and Host Communities Children to access emergency education in Uror and Duk Jonglei State LWFs creating zones of peace support to IDPs, Returnees and vulnerable Host Communities children to access emergency education in Uror and Duk . This project aims to provide early childhood education to conflict affected children displaced and returning to the Jonglei counties of Uror and Duk. LWF acknowledges that some of these children have already undergone secondary displacement whilst others are returning from refugee camps or IDP camps. LWF will work towards improving temporary learning spaces and learning environments for children as well as training teachers on teaching methods and psycho social support.
Humanitarian common logistic services in the Republic of South Sudan The project’s objective is to provide logistics support and services to the humanitarian community in an effective and cost-efficient response. 

Common Transport Services (CTS):
Avail a fleet of 15 IOM managed trucks  to provide free-to-user humanitarian cargo delivery in a timely and effective manner in critical emergency response situations especially in Malakal, Melut, Bentiu, Bor and Rumbek for the logistics Hub. There remains an urgent need to continue operating current facilities. Services include the operation of Common Transport Service (CTS) trucks that facilitate the movement of humanitarian cargo from the airport to the common warehouses and, where possible, distribution points. The CTS trucks will not only be used to deliver humanitarian cargo from place to place but also to assist the loading and offloading of humanitarian aircraft at airport level. This activity in close coordination with the Logistics Cluster is very crucial as the air cargo transport remains one of the most utilized mode of transport to guarantee the fast delivery of the humanitarian cargo. Malakal, Bentiu, Bor and Rumbek locations are covered by CTS trucks at field level.

For the last 5 years the CTS project has significantly progressed. From 2,000MT of humanitarian cargo in 2011 to over 13,000MT in 2015, a progression of 250% and CHF has contributed up to 80% of this result.
One of the significant advantages of the CTS project is its flexibility to be able to switch trucks from place to place in order to avoid the rupture of the chain of transport and continue to deliver even in volatile areas. The volatile security situations which occurred in various states in 2014 and in 2015 did not impact the work of the CTS trucks as IOM in coordination with the Logistics Clusters managed to obtain the necessary clearance to operate in these airports/areas under both government and IO authorization.
Provision of quality lifesaving health services including responding to health related emergencies(Core pipeline supplies, health coordination and  outbreak response) in the displaced population in Wau, Western Bahr el Ghazal State Following the clashed in Wau a couple of weeks ago,health need in the displaced people in Wau continue to rise. Outbreak response and Strategic distribution of life saving drugs is a top priority in the Health Cluster, in order to prevent common childhood diseases and common morbidity and mortality due to epidemics .The key area of focus will be Western Bahr El Ghazal  state specifically the displaced population in Wau cCunty and the surrounding areas. In addition emphasis will be put in the payams that are mapped as high risk for outbreaks and epidemics. South Sudan is currently faced with the outbreaks of Malaria, Measles, and Cholera, and lots of re-emerging diseases including  un-diagnosed hemorrhagic fevers  are being reported. This project will enhance the technical aspect of WHO response to the current L3 emergency with focus on epidemic response and provision of other frontline services like emergency primary health care, support to outbreak response, mobile clinics and will further support the health cluster to perform its role as provider of last resort. Key focus will be to rapidly deploying rapid response teams to respond to acute emergencies, support outbreak response and disease surveillance in identified payams in Wau County,  In addition the project will support the distribution of the lifesaving supplies and ensure strategic pre-positioning of the much needed drugs in key locations reporting the high needs of health and critical gaps.
