Provision of Life-saving Integrated Health and Nutrition Services for under-served conflict affected populations in Rubkona, Pariang and Aweil East Counties The project is responding to the huge health and nutrition needs in the three counties of Pariang, Aweil East and Rubkona. This is caused by recurrent population displacement due to conflict and compounded by inadequate access to basic primary health care, food and livelihoods and economic opportunities. Like in many other South Sudan states, poor child care practices, inadequate hygiene, and lack of sanitation are also having an effect on the nutrition situation of the population mainly affecting boys, girls, and pregnant and lactating women due to their increased physiological needs. 
A total of 23,834 (Pariang 14,439 Aweil East 5,774 and Rubkona 3,621) direct beneficiaries will be targeted for the proposed response this will include SAM treatment 1,632 (832 girls and 800 boys) MAM 3,525 ( 1,798 Girls and 1,727 boys), 1,812 PLW for TSFP and 530 men who will be targeted as agents of change to improve Maternal, Infant and Young Child Nutrition. Whereas 20, 213 will be targeted for primary health care in Aweil East and Pariang.
Beneficiaries of the proposed project will be identified from their targeted Boma or villages through various mechanisms including community consultations and active case finding during screening and group discussions. 
The outcome of the project is to provide health and nutrition interventions for the disaster-affected populations in Pariang, Aweil East and Rubkona counties, through: 
	management of severe (complicated and non-complicated) and moderate acute malnutrition among under-five children, management of malnutrition in PLW
	conducting preventive nutrition interventions among under-fives-MIYCN/IYCF-E 
	continuous monitoring, surveillance and analysis of the evolving nutrition situation.
	increased access to integrated nutrition, health, WASH, FSL and protection interventions
	improving universal access to primary healthcare services by scaling us responsiveness for preventive and curative services which aligns with the 3 South Sudan health cluster objectives
The project will target IDPs, vulnerable host community members and returnees. CARE will put in place a robust accountability mechanism that will ensure that women, men and children are able to make decisions in the planning and implementation of project activities. In addition, the project will develop a complaints and feedback mechanism that will enable beneficiaries to report and get feedback from CARE. 
In addition, protection of beneficiaries will be paramount and hence all distributions and community meetings will be done as close as possible to villages to prevent women and children from traveling long distances which might subject them to abuse. CARE staff will receive training on PSEA and communities will be provided with information on their entitlements.
Prevent, mitigate protection risks through community engagement, protection monitoring, and assessment through field-based intervention in Pigi/canal in Jonglei state. This project aims to prevent and mitigate protection risk through community engagement and protection monitoring in the conflict-affected Pigi/Canal in Jonglei State to identify various protection-related risks and negative coping strategy that require urgent attention. 
The project beneficiaries are IDPs, returnees who are currently returning to their place of origin in Alam, Atar and Belwach payams plus the host communities who hosted them in Pigi/Canal, however more attention will be for the most vulnerable individuals or groups experiencing different forms of protection risk including the negative coping strategy to secure the daily meals for their family or children. These categories will need to be targeted with individuals protection assistance with either direct cash support or materials support depending on the needs.MHA team would also Identify the trends or fluctuation of population movement through tracking the movement of the IDPs/returnees in to the areas and will update the national protection cluster and others partners to provide support needed as well as to strengthen the coordination at the field level in order to improve information sharing on the overall humanitarian situation. The field evidence-based data and information on the needs of the IDPs and the returnees will also assist the protection cluster to make an informed decision and advocate on their need to be addressed across all sectors.

The project will also consider assessments together data on issues of safety, protection, needs, meaningful access to services, freedom of movement for humanitarian staff and beneficiaries and to identify the specific protection concerns that will need to be addressed promptly. The assessment reports will be shared with the protection cluster and other actors within the county to make the informed decision on what assistance should be provided including multi-sectoral responses. 
Lastly, the project aims to enhance protection risk mitigation programming through engagement with the community at the field level/static presence, stakeholders mapping has been conducted and local power has been Identified.MHA and existing community-based protection structures will collectively involve in the identification of dynamics, risks prevention and mitigation so that critical protection gaps are jointly addressed to alleviate the suffering. MHA will create the linkages between the community-based protection structure, local actors and other humanitarian agencies operating on the ground like,(HFO, IMC, NPA, and HAA) to ensure effective and better coordination amongst the partners within the operating area.
Emergency Nutrition Response in Koch County The proposed project aims to reduce the morbidity and mortality of young children and pregnant and lactating women (PLW) due to malnutrition by increasing access to management of malnutrition services as well as preventative education and trainings. The project will target 5,278 direct beneficiaries in the six month period through outpatient therapeutic feeding program (OTP), Targeted Supplementary Feeding Program (TSFP), and Mother, Infant, and Young Child Nutrition (MIYCN) programming in the 8 nutrition sites WRSS oversees in Koch County. This project is intended to supplement UNICEF and WFP funds for OTP and TSFP respectively, which are insufficient for providing resources to implement the full package of CMAM services and activities in such an expansive county of high nutritional needs. The total amount is needed to ensure adequate staffing to provide direct services at nutrition feeding sites as well as adequate training for staff and other CMAM activities which are not funded by other donors.

Despite the harsh operating environment, WRSS has maintained programming and a static presence in Koch County since 2005, maintaining relationships with local staff, volunteers, and community leaders, and knowledge of the operating environment. WRSS will apply an adaptive strategy for accessing and serving the affected populations ranging from static sites to local outreaches to accompanying RRMs and ensuring supervised services continue thereafter. Mobile outreaches will build upon previous CERF funding that constructed outreach sites deeper in remote communities as satellites of main nutrition centers to increase coverage and access to essential nutrition services. WRSS will conduct screenings and referrals for all SAM and MAM cases identified within the community and the nutrition sites following standard national admission protocol. All nutrition staff will receive refresher trainings on CMAM protocol and gender protection and mainstreaming, including PSEA and SGBV referral mechanisms. Community Nutrition Volunteers (CNVs) will conduct defaulter and absentee tracing for patients admitted for MAM. As capacity building for community level volunteers, the CNVs will also be trained on gender and protection mainstreaming in addition to MIYCN training. 

WRSS will train CNVs to conduct group and individual MIYCN counseling as well as nutrition related WASH and health messaging in the through their mothers groups in their local communities as part of a local solution to strengthen the nutrition response. Two rounds of mass MUAC screenings are also planned during the project to improve nutrition surveillance and inform the response.
Deliver integrated, quality, live-saving inpatient nutrition services for SAM/MC for the most vulnerable. WHO proposes to reduce the health impact of the nutrition crisis through integrated health and nutrition interventions, focusing on quality live-saving services, in areas with high burden of acute malnutrition, in South Sudan. In the effort to close child survival gaps, the project directly targets 3377 SAM/MC children (70% of the SAM/MC annual caseload in the 19 priority counties, which is equal to  6,753 for 2019), their 3377 caretakers, 85 health/nutrition staff working in stabilization centers (SC), in areas with high burden of acute malnutrition, food insecurity and morbidity. WHO will implement the SAM/MC PACKAGE which consist of a capacity building program designed by WHO and integrated in the National Protocol to improve the quality of life-saving inpatient management of SAM/MC. Trainings to be conducted at the ToT and facility levels, combined with MIYCN (target 40 HWs for ToT and 150 HWs for facility based trainings). Conduct at least 4 on-site supportive supervision missions to reinforce the quality of live-saving services provided.  WHO will advocate and train SC staff on QAAP approach (interviews and focus group discussions skills). WHO’s mandate focuses on improving inpatient management of severe acute malnutrition . Since the beginning of the humanitarian crisis in 2013, WHO in South Sudan has intensified efforts and operations, catalyzed technical and financial resources to support improved inpatient therapeutic programs (ITP) for SAM/MC. Through this project, WHO will ensure that enhanced quality lifesaving medical treatments are provided for SAM/MC children so to prevent unnecessary deaths and ensuring quality across the continuum of care. Capacity building of medical doctors, nurses and other health workers responsible for case management of severely malnourished children is essential to achieve reductions in mortality. WHO plays a unique role in emergency nutrition, provides technical support, builds sustainable institutional capacity, monitors the health situation and trends. Therefore the added value of this project is critical and very distinctive in the nutrition arena.
Provision of fishing kits, vegetable growing kits and extension training to stabilize the livelihoods of returnees, internally displaced persons and host community through food security and livelihood activities in three payams  of Bazia, Baggari and Beselia of Wau County, Western Bahr el Gazal State, South Sudan This project aims to meet the immediate, medium and long-term food security needs of the target communities in the payams of Bazia, Bagari and Beselia of Wau County of Western Bahr el Gazal State that were affected by armed conflict, insecurities, climate change and displacement. This will be achieved by:
a) Provision of 5845 vegetable kits: beneficiaries will be provided with vegetable kits containing a variety of vegetable seeds followed by extension training on good agronomic practices. 
b) Provision of 5845 fishing kits: Intervening at the household level to meet the emergency food security needs through provision of fishing kits will immediately improve the food security and nutrition status of the households. Fishing has a potential to immediately address the food security needs of the targeted vulnerable households through provision of fishing equipment to enable the people to immediately harvest fish from the rivers and swamps in the areas. The fisher folks will be trained on fish preservation methods so as to have enough fish for the future and on marketing at far locations that do not have fishing grounds. 
c) Distribution of watering cans to the beneficiaries who received vegetable seeds to enhance and support the production of vegetables through irrigation during the lean season. These watering cans will be requested from core pipeline managed by FAO
d) Improving the capacity of farmers: Field FSL Assistants and extension workers will be trained by PAH FSL Officers and will support training of beneficiaries on filed level. The field workers will facilitate discussions and demonstration on good agronomic practices for the vegetable, as well for fishery beneficiaries.
e) Integration: For more holistic approach, PAH will integrate interventions with sectors of WASH, nutrition, education, protection and S/NFI through working in collaboration with OXFAM, Johanniter, IOM, FAO, Islamic Relief and others who are implementing projects of the other sectors. PAH will continue to work on school gardening and awareness at the schools, nutrition and health centers with nutrition and health partners like Johanniter in Wau County while the PAH ERT will integrate the WASH, S/NFI and FSL as it did before in Magwi, Boma, Koch and Jur River counties. High focus will be put on protection and thus PAH will recruit a roving protection officer to mainstream protection across all sectors.
f) Cooking classes for nutritious meals: PAH FSL team together with the nutrition partners will conduct cooking classes for the women so that they know the preparation of nutritious meals from some of the crops/vegetables like cabbages and collard that are not indigenous in the area.
Integrated Response to Life-Threatening Malnutrition in Twic East County of Jonglei State, South Sudan The overall objective of this project is to provide lifesaving emergency nutrition services focusing on the prevention and treatment of acute malnutrition amongst under-five children and pregnant and lactating women through an integrated, multi-sectoral response in Twic East county, Jonglei state.

The project will support the running costs and operational activities of two Stabilization Centres (SCs), eight Outpatient Therapeutic Programmes (OTPs) and eight Targeted Supplementary Feeding Programs (TSFP), as well as one outreach location. This is to reduce the rates of child mortality due to hunger as well as decreasing rates of moderate and acute malnutrition for children and pregnant and lactating women (PLWs).

Through community mobilisation, Tearfund will conduct screenings of SAM and MAM cases across payams in Twic East. Once screened, cases will be admitted and receive appropriate nutritional treatment to encourage recovery. The project aims to target 1,912 (408 in OTP and 1504 in TSFP) children under five and 1,723 PLWs throughout this intervention. Previous SSHF funding enabled Tearfund to rehabilitate an SC in Maar, this project will allow the SC to  be fully functional now it is established. To ensure quality programming, Tearfund intends to rehabilitate 3 existing OTP/TSFP sites in Panyagor, Pawel and Paliau. The project will also strengthen service delivery through the training of nutritional staff on malaria screening, MIYCN, ECD, GMP and refresher/ basic courses on SAM and inpatient management. 

The proposed intervention will also focus on providing training for IYCF counsellors to enable them to continue their support activities. IYCF counsellors and Lead Mothers will receive specific training on hygiene promotion and  key practices and messages will then be disbursed through individual and group counselling sessions. New MTMSGs will also be formed in villages without existing groups, such groups will receive integrated IYCF and WASH messaging. 

The project will prioritize including vulnerable groups of people throughout its implementation. This will be achieved through community engagement and accountability meetings which will focus on listening to feedback and concerns from women, persons of disability and youth in particular. Tearfund will also pursue effective integrating gender and protection measures within activities. GBV safety audits will be conducted at each feeding centre/ SC resulting in the formulation of an action plan guided by Tearfund's Gender and Protection Advisor. Tearfund will utilize its existing team of staff who are established and currently implementing nutrition programme in Twic East with support from a Nutrition Advisor for technical knowledge. Implementation of activities will be over a six month period, monitoring reports in the form of narrative and financial will also be made available.
