2017 LB060 Strengthening Protection and Resilience </b> <p></p>Conflict and Consequences <p></p> In 2016, children and youth continue to face complex protection issues, ranging from recruitment into armed groups, detention, exploitation, child labour and sexual abuse. Children are disproportionately affected by sexual and gender-based violence. Domestic violence, exploitation, and sexual harassment, as well as forced/early marriage, remain the main protection concerns for children and adolescent girls. Unaccompanied girls, child mothers and children living with disabilities are particularly exposed to such risks. The deteriorating socio-economic situation, coupled with limited access to education, has resulted in an increase of reported cases of child labour and child marriage. The breakdown of community protection mechanisms due to displacement also places children and caregivers at greater risk of violence. <p></p> Project aim: <p></p> General Objective: Sharpen approach to address the needs and respond to gaps identified in the field through CP/PSS awareness sessions, community based activities, focused intervention and case management for both children and caregivers and competence building for relevant stakeholders. <p></p> Specific Objectives: <p></p> - Increased resilience and improved psychosocial well-being of Syrian, Lebanese and vulnerable children and their caregivers living in vulnerable communities in Akkar and T5 by building the competencies and capacity of local organizations and other service providers that are responsible for providing an interconnected set of CP/PSS prevention and response interventions including improved linkages and outreach to communities. <p></p> - Improved protective and nurturing environment for children through the empowerment of communities in Akkar and T5 that respect the rights of children and actively participate in enhancing and providing CP and PSS services <p></p> Expected Results: <p></p> - Increased resilience and improved psychosocial well-being of Syrian, Lebanese and vulnerable children and their caregivers living in vulnerable communities in Akkar and T5 by building the competencies and capacity of local organizations and other service providers that are responsible for providing an interconnected set of CP/PSS prevention and response interventions including improved linkages and outreach to communities. <p></p> - Improved protective and nurturing environment for children through the empowerment of communities in Akkar and T5 that respect the rights of children and actively participate in enhancing and providing CP and PSS services <p></p> - The project wants to contribute to MoSA’s National Plan, and the LCRP 2017-2020 strategy in strengthening child protection system. The activities highlighted below are to be implemented in a timeframe of one year beginning January 2017. <p></p>

2015 LB034 Together for Syria Lebanon has experienced a massive influx of refugees in recent years - including more than one million arrivals from neighboring Syria.

By learning life skills and standing up for their rights, they receive the tools to create a better future for themselves.
2017 ME073 PS4002 Growing up in No Man’s Land | Protecting Children in Area C The Oslo accords of the 1990s saw the West Bank divided into Areas A, B, and C. Areas A and B contained the highest density of Palestinian residents, while Area C contained the most land – 60% of the entire West Bank. The land comprising Area C, and its residents, remained under civil and military control of Israel. The number of Israeli settlers moving into Area C has quadrupled, and shows no sign of slowing - the 300,000 Palestinians living in Area C are now outnumbered by Israeli settlers. Those still residing within Area C live under constant threat of home demolitions and displacement, and without permission to use the land for traditional herding and agriculture practices many are dependent on humanitarian aid for survival. For the children of Area C, this translates to a life of marginalisation, worry, and vulnerability. Their childhood is marked by poverty and lack of opportunities, poor nutrition and ill-health, limited access to health and education services in their areas, and fear of harassment while travelling to more distant services. Many experience frequent displacement and constant fear of forced transfer, demolition of their homes and schools, or violence from neighbouring settlements. In the absence of other opportunities, children resort to physical labour in the neighbouring Israeli settlements, sometimes experience child-labour related illness and disability as a result. Support communities to provide a protective environment for children living in vulnerable communities of Area C Expected Results: (i) Improved psychosocial support and child protection services for children and families; (ii) Increased knowledge and understanding of the unmet needs and/or gaps in marginalized areas to support targeted programming in the following years.

2016 BU020 Ntuntoteze Engaging Communities in eradicating Violence against Children in Burundi. More than 230,000 refugees fled Burundi during 2015 as a result of the violent unrest surrounding President Nkurunzizas decision to stand for re‐election. The extreme violence has resulted in significant child rights violations and an escalating humanitarian crisis. This two‐year project, an alliance by War Child, IRC, Aprodem, FVS‐Amade and Mukenyezi Menya, protects children in the provinces most affected by conflict. Through a childrens club, young people are encouraged to speak out about their rights in their communities. They are trained in life skills, so they can rebuild their confidence, stand up for themselves and create positive relationships. They also receive education and training so they have a better chance at a job later in life.
2016 CD126 Protracted Crisis Empower and Protect Children The Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) has been suffering from a humanitarian crisis over the past 20 years, as millions of people have died and been displaced from their homes. The infrastructure, schools, health and social services do not function and as a result, many children lack access to their rights and proper care. This project works on the resilience of children in conflict areas, through protection from the community and education, while also providing psycho-social support. By empowering children to pursue their rights, they also become involved in socioeconomic empowerment which helps them create a better future for themselves.

2017 SY104 SY4002 Community based Child Protection and Education for Conflict Affected Children in South and Central Syria | PSS Phase IV Conflict and Consequences: As the Syrian crisis enters its 6th year, 13.5 million People are affected and in need of humanitarian assistance in Syria, including 5.8 million children. Children are among the worst affected by the conflict: almost 3 million children grew up knowing nothing but war; 2.7 million girls and boys are internally displaced and over 3 million girls and boys live in hard to reach and besieged locations. Over 2500 grave child rights violations were reported in 2016 with Killing. The UN SG CAAC report states that the recruitment and use of children by parties to the conflict is widespread and younger children are increasingly recruited and engaged in active combat on the frontlines and involved in tasks like carrying weapons, manning checkpoints and in extreme cases as suicide bombers and undertaking executions. Furthermore, the protracted conflict is eroding coping mechanisms, with increasingly negative social practices, including child labour and violence in the households and communities. As a result of these multiple and protracted protection risks Syrian children‘s vulnerability and the strong psychological impact of the conflict on children continue to increase and children express feelings of insecurity, fear, distress, injustice, anger, powerlessness, hopelessness and uncertainty for the future Project aim: General Objective: To strengthen children’s and communities’ resilience and improve children’s wellbeing.
