WASH Interventions in 9 new accessible areas in Rural Damascus and Quneitra The project addresses providing safe amp sustainable water services for more than 75,000 people in need in the southern region (about 52,330 persons of them are IDPs amp returnees). 
The project covered 9 newly accessible communities in Rural Damascus (especially East Ghouta) amp Quneitra, these areas are:
	Rural Damascus: Ein Terma, Arbin amp Zamalka in Eastern Ghouta.
	Quneitra: Kalidiyeh, Kom Elbasha, Majdolieah, Tarnaja, Rweheineh amp Mashara.
These newly accessible areas are suffering of severe lack of safe amp sustainable water services, due to the huge damaged that happened in the Water infrastructures as a result of current crisis. Many of boreholes amp water networks were damaged and became out of service.
The deteriorated Water services are affecting on the people life and prevent others to return to their homes in these newly accessible areas many people are forcing to buy water from un-trusted sources with high costs and unacceptable quality, water borne diseases are spreading in these areas (specifically: diarrhea, hepatitis, Typhoid, Leishmaniasis and dysentery).
UNICEF in cooperation with our active partner amp local water authorities is trying to secure safe amp sustainable WASH services to the most vulnerable people in these areas. 
SHF will be used to secure safe amp sustainable water services for the most vulnerable people (especially children amp women), encourage the people to return to their houses amp protect the population from water borne diseases through implementing (according to HRP) rehabilitation for 18 boreholes in East Ghouta amp Quneitra to secure safe amp sustainable water services to more than 75,000 persons in these new accessible areas.
Youth Charity Deir Ez-Zor Mobile Medical Clinics Deir al-Zour is a city located in the east of Syria, and one of the most affected areas by the Syrian crisis, with a damage exceeds 75% of the city including medical centers and related health sector facilities, with hazardous remnants of war scattered everywhere, such as landmines and unexploded ordnance. However, the area is now considered under government control. 
Deir Ez-Zor including (rural Ayyash and border of Der Ez-Zor city with rural Mayadin and Bukamal with neighboring countryside) is an area that has a population of over 500,000. Most residents are currently very poor and internally displaced after seven years of war and encircle, resulted in more than 105,300 of them need medical care amp services. High percentage of the population are children and families who rely on women as their main breadwinners, and Dummar Youth Charity will provide its medical services to 10,000 of the aforementioned 105,300. The whole governorate only has only two hospitals (Military Hospital and Al Assad Hospital). 
Due to the high population of Deir Ez-Zor including surroundings and the inability of many of them to leave the area (due to security/financial reasons i.e. medical compensations). The project aims at establishing Two Mobile Medical Clinics in Deir Ez-Zor rural area and surroundings to provide free medical services with referral system in addition to provide free medication, and find job opportunities to jobless people of the area (mainly women).
The locations of the two mobile medical clinics in the governorate will be as follows: 
-	The first one will be in in rural Ayyash which is located in the rural area of Deir Ez-Zor that will provide the services to people in the rural side of Deir Ez-Zor from the side of Raqqa, 
-	And the second one will be in the border of Der-Zor city with rural areas of Mayadin and Bukamal. As this area of the city was hot contact area during the whole period of war.
 And referral system will be executed in coordination with local hospitals in the area and with hospitals (to beneficiaries who are unable to travel) and in Damascus (to beneficiaries how are able to travel) and it has access to near rural areas. And medical services include free medication and the source of medicines is the Pharmacists Syndicate.
Addressing life-saving needs in benefit of the vulnerable and conflict-affected population in North-East Syria Close to nine years into the crisis, the scale, severity, and complexity of needs across Syria remain staggering. There are 11,7 million people requiring humanitarian assistance, including 1,3 million people in hard-to-reach areas, where they are exposed to grave protection threats. 5.2 million are facing acute need due to displacement, exposure to hostilities, and limited access to goods and services. The prolonged nature of the crisis has strained people’s ability to cope and negative coping strategies are on the rise. Such coping strategies are not only highly unsustainable but also, once exhausted, may increase exposure to more harmful practices. Overall, vulnerabilities continue to deepen, disproportionately affecting women and children. 
The communities of North East Syria (NES) are among the ones facing the most acute needs. The volatile security situation has worsened in the recent period due to increased military operations, causing significant influx of IDPs to Al Hole and transitional sites. In general, across the region, tens of thousands of Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) remain in camps and informal sites, in addition to Iraqi refugees living conditions are dire with residents reporting widespread challenges, ranging from access to education and healthcare (both cited as major concerns), to inadequate shelter and WASH facilities, as well as child protection issues. 
Taking into consideration the Reserve Allocation strategy and the needs identified in the field, the proposed intervention aims at ensuring continuity of basic WASH services covering the needs of vulnerable conflict-affected communities and IDPs in Hassakeh and Northern-Deir ez Zor. 
Two main outputs are expected: 1) Timely management of waste-water, sanitation facilities and solid waste is provided in Abu Kashab camp 2) Access to safe water is ensured in Abu Kashab camp and to host communities in Hassakeh.
The project proposes a two-fold strategy. The first pillar seeks to promote a health and hygienic environment in Abu Kashab IDPs camp (5,849 beneficiaries) through the continuation of services for the management of solid waste and the de-sludging, cleaning and flushing of the latrines. The second pillar aims at ensuring access to safe water through water trucking in Abu Kashab (same beneficiaries as above), and the rehabilitation and maintenance of Alok water station as the main source of water for Al Hole and Areesha IDPs camps, and for the host communities in Hassakeh and Tel Tamar (150,450 direct beneficiaries, considering the IDPs in Al Hole, 72,300, and Areesha, 11,000, as indirect). 
The proposed project mainstreams and incorporates protection principles in the activities to promote meaningful access, safety and dignity. Despite the challenging environment, and thanks to its effective access strategy, AAH has full-access to the targeted areas and has the capacity in place to start the operations according to the work-plan set through direct-implementation.
Rehabilitation of Affected Educational Facilities in the Eastern and Southern Aleppo Countryside The purpose of this proposal is to seek funds to quick repair and rehabilitate 7 damaged public schools in the Eastern and Southern Aleppo countryside which are areas with high numbers of returnees, IDPs and host populations, and to meet the immediate educational needs.

The targeted schools will support the (re-)integration of more than 3500 children, adolescents and youth into the public school system by rehabilitating of 69 classrooms (learning spaces) and 20 teacher’s rooms. 

Also the project will provide the targeted schools with safe drinking water, improved sanitation facilities to  increase the school enrolment rate  particularly for girls and to encourage the development of healthy behaviors for life.

All activities will have coordinated closely with the MOE and local authorities/ stakeholders on the ground (DoE).
Life-saving protection services to displaced populations affected by the recent hostilities in south-east Deir ez-Zoor governorate The project will make protection services available to vulnerable, at times already multiple-times displaces populations, that were living under the rule of so-called islamic state for several years. These services will help targeted communities to identify suitable protection measures to live again safely in their communities. The locations are communities in Sosat, Hajiin, Thiban and Khasham sub-districts on the East side of the Euphrates river in Deir ez-Zoor governorate. Dorcas will partner with the Monastery St. James the Mutilated who has current access approvals to the area that still witnesses conflict. Dorcas leads the project and does the technical support through intensive trainings and coaching of the three newly hired mobile teams that access the locations through El-Hassakeh. Activities are protection risk assessment and monitoring, identifying awareness - and risk education messages, hold awareness and risk education sessions and campaigns.
WASH assistance to crisis affected Syrian men, women, boys and girls in Dar’a and Rural Damascus Governorates Oxfam is proposing a one year humanitarian response to benefit 36,750 men, women, boys and girls in communities affected by the crisis in Nawa and Sheikh Saed, Dar’a Governorate and Hammura, Rural Damascus Governorates in Syria. 

The proposed action responds to the assessed needs in each location - the extensive damage to the towns water and sewage networks. Damage to the water distribution network, shortage of water and unreliable power supply, means most communities are unable to reliably source water from the public network and relying on private water wells and on purchasing water from private operators. Damage to the sewage network poses a public health risk, where leakages could contaminate water sources. The proposed action aims to restore sustainable access to safe water, repair the damaged sewage network, and promote improved public health through school-based hygiene promotion in the specified communities.  Sewage network repair will focus on most at risk leakage points in Hammura (Rural Damascus) and Sheikh Saed (Dar’a), while Oxfam will work with other WASH partners to reduce sewage contamination risks in Nawa (Dar’a). 

The action is aligned with SHF's allocation strategy paper targeting priority communities and prioritising eligible actions. 

The action will be directly implemented by Oxfam’s field staff, including a dedicated project manager, and project team, and supported by an area manager, thematic coordinators, support staff, reliable and experienced site engineers and focal points, and carefully screened private contractors. Oxfam will draw on its existing well established relationships with Dar’a and Rural Damascus Governorates authorities to ensure access to locations and communities and requisite approvals for the implementation of the activities.
WASH Emergency Response – Displacement response in Hasakeh, Deir Ez Zor and Raqqa The project addresses the immediate WASH needs of internally displaced people from North East rural Deir Ez Zor. Over 75,000 people from North east rural Deir Zor are hosted in Al Hol camp in Hasakeh with the numbers continuing to increase. The population in need in Al hol camp alone has increased by 75 per cent since the beginning of December 2018, Currently the camp population has surged to more than 73,000 people. Similarly, over 8,000 people in Twehina/Mahmoudli camp are in urgent need to WASH services including water supply system, latrines, showers and sanitation infrastructure. UNICEF is now working in installation of latrines and sewerage network, while water supply system and WASH supplies distribution is a gap.

Most of the shelters do not have the capacity or infrastructure to accommodate the large number of people arriving. The newly arriving IDPs are largely an acute humanitarian caseload in need of lifesaving support, reports show that women and children clearly showing signs of distress. The sharp population increase in Al Hole Camp has overstretched the services and humanitarian response capacity especially the concerning shelter, health and severely lacking water, sanitation and hygiene facilities.

This project has been designed against the latest OCHA collected information and analysis of the humanitarian and protection situation. SHF funds will be used to procure life-saving WASH NFIs, the installation of water tanks, provision of water trucking, construction and rehabilitation of existing latrines in the camps and collective shelters, the rehabilitation of existing sewage networks within collective shelters and the installation of prefabricated latrines. 

WASH supplies will be distributed to all the Camps/shelters to fill the gaps as an immediate need of the most vulnerable population. Some sites already have over 20,000 Families. IDPs have no possibility to leave the camp, most of these sites have no sufficient toilets and showers and most of the IDPs have not had a shower or changed of clothing in over 1 month. In some of these sites, open defection could be observed. If the situation is not addressed immediately, there is a real public health risk with possibilities of outbreak of communicable diseases incl. cholera. UNICEF have so far installed over 344 latrines in the expansion of Al Hol camp in different phases, 10 latrines for people with special needs, 291 water tanks of 2,000 liter capacity and 776 solid waste containers 

UNICEF and sector partners has provided minimum humanitarian standard services to all individuals in all camps however, it is still crucial to continue improving the situation of WASH services until all people return to their homes. Meanwhile sector partners are supporting water supply, regular maintenance of facilitates, solid waste management and vector control to minimize exposure to water-born diseases during summer.
Education assistance for conflict-affected people in East Ghouta and Dar’a This project will provide education support to conflict-affected populations in East Ghouta (Duma and Ein Terma) and Dar’a (Kherbet Ghazala and Sheikh Miskine) as prioritized in the 2019 SHF Allocation in coordination with other actors. DRC will flexibly intervene where most needed, including where DRC is strategically positioned for access in comparison to other responders. DRC has existing operational presence in East Ghouta and Dar’a and will use this Action to scale-up assistance, ensuring a comprehensive response to the population in need. DRC will target a total of 9,544 beneficiaries under this action. Coordination with other actors will maximize response efficiency. 

With access to East Ghouta as well as Dar’a facilitated through SARC, DRC stands ready to begin activities for this project as soon as it is funded. According to DRC assessments and service mapping, Ein Terma, Duma, Kherbet Ghazala and Sheikh Miskine remain areas in East Ghouta and Dar’a with high levels of education needs with few humanitarian services available. The provision of education services inside Syria is limited, with limited access to safe school buildings, massive dropout rates, and a lack of qualified teachers able to handle the overcrowded classrooms characterizing many of the functional schools. Child labor, child recruitment, and early marriage all interfere with children’s ability to attend school, often resulting in children dropping out. These children join their peers who have been removed from the formal education system by their parents due to fears for children’s safety, lack of available schools, and inability to learn in the often overcrowded and chaotic education system. 

In order to reduce, mitigate and address the education needs, DRC proposes a program, inclusive of the Self-Learning Program, remedial classes, teacher training, parent-teacher associations and school rehabilitation, which will be provided inside MoE schools, targeting vulnerable and underserved students which will support pathways to safe reintegration into formal education. DRC will assess schools long-listed by MoE, targeting schools based on scoring criteria that accounts for a number of variables, including the proportion of IDPs in the student body, the number of dropouts per school, classroom occupancy, and the availability of learning materials among students. The soft activities will provide learning pathways for children who are out of school to reintegrate into formal education as well as reduce the number of dropouts, while school rehabilitation will provide the safe and comfortable learning environment needed. The project accords with the education sector’s strategy providing education assistance to conflict-affected people in East Ghouta and Dar’a. Project locations will remain flexible to enable DRC to respond to the most critical needs expected locations include Duma and Kafr Batna sub-districts in Rural Damascus and Kherbet Ghazala and Sheikh Miskine sub-districts in Dar’a.
Emergency response through provision of core relief items and shelters in Al-Hol camp, Hassakeh, North East Syria The primary aim of this proposal is to respond to urgent life-saving needs of civilians arriving from Hajiin in Deir-ez-Zour to Al-Hol camp, Hassakeh, North-East Syria, through provision of emergency shelter and basic relief items. 

The project is comprised of two components:

a). Provision of life-saving and life sustaining Core Relief Items (CRIs) to new arrivals from Hajiin, Deir-ez-Zour to Al-Hol camp, Hassakeh. UNHCR CRIs are distributed to persons in need in order to reduce their vulnerabilities and enhance resilience. Standard CRI packages for a family of five include high thermal blankets, mattresses/sleeping mats, kitchen sets, plastic sheeting, jerry cans and a solar lamp.

b). Provision of life-saving shelter support, through preparation of camp site to accommodate the new arrivals. Key activities included are site preparation of part of Phase-V of Al-Hol camp, including civil works, illumination, roads, establishment of the distribution site, installation of 10 new big size tents, 141 new family tents will be procured and installed for both new arrivals as well as replacement of the old damaged tents based on needs.
Towards an access to WASH services conducive to both the reduction of morbidity and the strengthening of community resilience The number of people in need in the WASH sector in Syria has increased from 13,1 to 15,5 million between 2018 and 2019 according to the HNO. This highlights the dire needs remaining across Syria in terms of access to water and other services linked to sanitation and hygiene.

This project will target remote rural areas in Dara’a and Eastern Ghouta (EG) which have been severely affected by the conflict and suffered high levels of destruction, including water infrastructure. Additionally, the targeted areas have long been underserved by humanitarian actors, due to limited access. In all areas, the most common (if not the sole) source of water for drinking, cooking and hygiene purposes is trucked water, mostly ensured by humanitarian agencies in EG, while organized and paid by communities themselves in Dara’a. As a response, this project includes life-saving activities aiming at addressing immediate water needs (i.e. water trucking) along with activities contributing to building resilience – i.e. rehabilitation and/or upgrade of boreholes and/or pumping stations,.

Damages to sewage network create important risks of water contamination. While the assessments conducted in the targeted localities of EG conclude either that sewage systems do not need to be rehabilitated or that interventions are planned by other actors, this is not the case for the localities targeted in Dara’a, for which the hereby project therefore includes activity sanitation component.

In different EG localities assessed by TGH throughout 2019, it has been observed that only 47,2% of the surveyed population has adequate WASH practices (TGH KAP survey, 2019). In particular, transportation and storage of water, reasonable use of water and symptoms and treatment of water-related diseases will be the focus of the hygiene campaigns organized in EG communities. For a more coherent approach, TGH will organize these campaigns only inthe locality targeted by the proposed rehabilitation of water point.

The purpose of this project is to restore minimum levels of safe water availability and access to other basic WASH services, through both a life-saving emergency response and life-sustaining assistance.

TGH does it utmost to ensure the greatest complementarity between its projects funded by different donors, but also with other humanitarian actors intervening in the same areas.
Solid waste Management in NES affected communities in(   Al Qamishli city- Al Hassakeh city, Kahtaniya sub-district ,Yarubiya sub-district, Al Hol town, Amuda sub-district and  Malkiya sub-district) In response to the most pressing needs in the most underserved areas identified through the Humanitarian Response Fund for Syria, several cities and towns will be targeted in Hassakeh governorate with solid waste collection and disposal.
The governorate of Al-Hassakeh with a population of around 1.3 million located in the north-eastern region, host thousands of IDPs scattered across the governorate. The governorate inherently suffers from severe weakness in the delivery of almost all basic services including solid waste management. With the on-going crisis, depleted assets (human, financial and physical), and conflict over the use of resources between two authorities the problem deepened. Additionally, the communities in the target areas of the governorate suffer from seasonal outbreak of Leishmania which put thousands of inhabitants at risk. Leishmaniasis incidents coincide within areas with poor solid waste management. The population in the targeted areas accounts for more than 70% of the total population of the governorate. 

Through this project, UNDP will timely intervene to curb the impact of poor services and reduce leishmaniasis incident through solid waste collection and removal, insecticide spraying and awareness-raising campaigns to promote the healthy and hygienic environment in the target areas and to help provide decent living conditions for their communities.

UNDP will adopt community based approaches in workers’ selection and implementation of the various activities/interventions. Under the project, necessary tools and equipment (wheelbarrows and containers) and personal and protective safety tools will be provided to workers. The removal of solid waste will be through vehicles from private contractors.
