Provision of Lifesaving Water supply, Sanitation and Hygiene services to vulnerable 
 affected Communities in Awerial County, Eastern Lakes State The vulnerable affected communities in Awerial County under-served by insufficient clean water supply for drinking and gross exposure to effects of open defecation due to limited sanitation facilities shall be provided with lifesaving WASH services to reduce the mortality and morbidity rate caused by high incidences of water borne diseases outbreak specifically cholera in the Prone and vulnerable communities in Abuyung, Puluk and Bunagok payams which also neighbor Yirol East which of late has faced a number of waterborne related disease outbreaks  due to dire WASH situations coupled with poor hygiene behavioral habits and cultural perceptions that need to be changed gradually to adopt improved hygienic behviours, this close neighborhood relationship makes it highly risky for the spread of cholera incase of an outbreak into Awerial County. The project shall be achieved through provision of lifesaving safe water supply (new borehole drilling and repairs), hygiene promotion awareness and sensitization at household and institutional levels, breaking the cholera transmission routes between victims and caretakers/community members by 'contact tracing', disinfection, sensitization, and using WASH NFIs including soap, buckets, latrine slabs, plastic sheets, Pur amp Aquatabs to support qualitative improvement of Hygiene and Sanitation practices. The new hand pump boreholes shall be drilled in under-served communities with proper safe water source and shared with neighboring communities to support hygiene activities and supplement Nutrition through clean safe water supply. The nearby Institutions (Schools amp health centres) shall also be used as platforms to reach out to the population (Indirect beneficiaries) through hygiene awareness, sensitization and lifesaving WASH NFIs distribution. 
The project target group includes vulnerable host communities, mobile pastoralists ampcattle camps with keen focus on the women and children for improved social and hygienic behavioral changes. These target groups shall be reached with hygiene promotion activities (especially hand washing at critical times) on cholera awareness and prevention, lifesaving WASH NFIs distribution, encourage safe defecation practices and new boreholes drilling and rehabilitation in vulnerable and prone Host communities in Awerial. These shall ensure increased access to safe water supply and sanitation facilities in health units, improved hygiene behavioral change and thus improved health among the prone host communities in Awerial County.
To reduce morbidity and mortality and to improve resilience of vulnerable populations in Leer and Mayendit counties through delivery of Community-based Management of Acute Malnutrition (CMAM) programme Medair will continue to intervene in Leer and Mayendit Counties to address the high level of acute malnutrition compounded by widespread severe food insecurity and, thus, reduce morbidity and mortality linked to it. Children 6-59 months of age suffering from acute malnutrition will be treated through the provision of a Community-based Management of Acute Malnutrition (CMAM) programme. The service will be implemented in up to 8 sites/locations (5 static and 3 mobile), an expansion from the current 3 sites. Mobile sites will be established based on security and geographical access. On top of these curative activities, preventative measures to mitigate the risk of developing acute malnutrition will be put in place and will include activities of behaviour change communication targeting maternal, infant and young child feeding practices, as well as periodic campaigns of mass distribution of Vitamin A (children aged 6-59 months) and deworming with albendazole (children aged 12-59 months).

CHDs and beneficiaries will be involved with our M amp E through every step of implementation of the project.
Emergency Community-Based Nutrition Support for flood-affected communities in Maban and Nasir counties The overall objective of the project is to prevent loss of lives and reduce mortalities and morbidities associated with malnutrition for flood-affected communities in Maban and Nasir Counties in Upper Nile State. Relief International’s (RI’s) proposed emergency nutrition program will target the most vulnerable population – children under 5 (CU5), and pregnant and lactation women (PLWs) within host and internally displaced people’s (IDPs) communities. The devastating impact of the floods has affected more than 900,000 people (per SSHF, Reserve Allocation Strategy) across the country of whom at least 420,000 people are in need of immediate humanitarian assistance. A disaster declaration was made by President Salva Kiir, on the advice of the Ministry of Humanitarian Affairs and Disaster Management. Upper Nile, RI’s area of operation, is among the hardest-hit regions and Maban county, in particular, has been classified by UN OCHA as one of the first priority counties for scale-up due to the high level of destruction by the floods.  

RI’s proposed intervention is in line with the South Sudan 2019 Humanitarian Response Plan (HRP) for nutrition, which prioritizes the treatment of acute malnutrition in counties with Global Acute Malnutrition (GAM) beyond the WHO 15% threshold. 

As per the stipulation in the reserve allocation request for proposals, RI will provide integrated nutrition services to flood-affected communities in Maban and Nasir counties through a community management of acute malnutrition (CMAM) approach. Services will be provided to targeted communities through:

1)	Rehabilitation of 4 flood damaged static nutrition sites in Maban and Nasir counties  
2)	Increasing access to treatment for SAM and MAM for boys and girls under five years affected by the flooding, through mobile nutrition services and fixed OTPs/TSFPs sites which will provide management of SAM and MAM for CU5 and PLWs for flood affected host communities in Maban and IDP and Host communities in Nasir counties. The locations in Maban inlucde: bugaya, ndangaji, bunj, gesmall, shatta, thuoje, jamam, pumki, nilla, banketa, genti, Kango, uffra
Jinkwata. The locations in Nasir include jikmir, mandeng, makak, maper, mading, torpuot, kurengke, malek, dinkar, kier wan, luel yak, kiechkuon, gaireng, roam, gurnyang. 
3)	Provision of lifesaving preventive MIYCN services through individual/group counselling to caregivers in flood affected host communities in Maban and IDP and host communities in Nasir 

These activities complement RI's existing Nutrition programming in all three locations. RI will be building on its existing programme through rehabilitating flood-damaged static structures which have already been identified by RI, scaling up the outreach services to reach more people in need, and increase the preventative MIYCN services. This existing program and support architecture, and acceptance withing the communities will enable RI to scale up quickly to meet the growing needs of flood-affected children and families. This project will directly support 6,084 individuals.
