Delivery and integration of protection services to most at-risk and marginalized women and girls in greater Al Bab Sub-district. The project will address the protection needs of both IDP and Host Communities in Albab subdistrict, northern Aleppo as a continuation of funding for Women and Girls Safe Space (WGSS) and affiliated community based outreach team. The WGSS started operating September 2018 funded by SCHF and continued until today with good acceptance from local community. SRD provides integrated protection activities within health facilities and stand-alone Women and Girls Safe Spaces (WGSS), providing response activities through a case management approach and a solid referral pathway in Albab city. A holistic and intensive model of case management will be utilized in the currently functional Women and Girls Safe Space in Al Bab city to enhance the resilience of survivors and vulnerable women and girls, specifically during COVID-19 pandemic. In addition, SRD provides capacity building, empowerment, preventive services, and community-based outreach activities as an entry point to reach more vulnerable groups.  SRD will continue to provide integrated GBV and PSS services in an accessible health/protection delivery points located in different affiliated communities to Al Bab. 
The protection team will reach a target of 10,056 individuals (586 men, 5,762 women, 1,050 boys, 2,658 girls) and addressing vulnerabilities that are related to PWDs, elderly, men, women, boys and girls with high risks identified in each targeted community during 12 months of implementation.
Provision of access to safe and quality education for conflict affected children in IDP settlements in NWS. With the Syrian conflict entering its 10th year, the humanitarian situation in northwestern Syria continues to deteriorate, impacting all life aspects of the Syrian families. The outbreak of the Coronavirus epidemic have added yet another dimension to the crisis and increased the burden on the vulnerable families while they strive to acquire their most basic needs. The negative impact of the pandemic is amplified in areas of large gatherings such as camps, informal settlements, and schools where the ability to apply social distancing rules is severely limited and high level of vulnerability prevents households from investing in precautionary measures such as increasing the use of hygiene items/facilities and Personal Protection Equipment (PPE).

Therefore, PIN plans through the proposed project to cover up to 10 camps with a package of assistance that is aimed at responding to the education needs of said camps in a qualitative and safe manner. In brief, PIN proposes the provision of a blended online and physical education to 2,600 school-aged children in 10 IDP camps, to adequately respond to the COVID-19 created needs with a tailor-made approach. PIN will take on providing students and teachers with the essential teaching and learning materials as well as recreational materials. PIN will cover the learning centers operational costs, including COVID-19 prevention materials, and fuel for heating during the winter months in order to keep learning centers well-functioning and to create a safe and child-friendly environment. PSS will be a fundamental part of the project aiming to improve the well-being and learning capacity of children and teachers, who are not only traumatized by the war, but experiencing many new stress factors and serious impact of the virus. All these services will be provided through the blended approach that combines cautious physical attendance with the distance learning module that PIN has already established across its education portfolio, and allows a prompt shift between the methodologies when needed, adapting to the context.
The emergency food response for the new IDPs in NW Syria The proposed project aims to improve the access of 21600 of most vulnerable groups of IDPs newly displaced from the countryside of Idleb and Aleppo (4160 men , 4480  women , 6105 boys , 6855 girls)especially children , women, people with disabilities and the elderly, to emergency proper safe access to food for six months(3600 beneficiaries in each month) in the modality of cooked meals and raising the awareness on public and personal hygiene issue making use of Saed kitchens assets and previous experience. 
.
The modality of response was designed in a way suitable for the new IDPs who are not able to cook (food making) basing on their self-abilities, whether for lacking cooking fuel, enough cooking spaces or food raw materials where each beneficiary will receive two cooked meals per day (breakfast amp lunch) and cover 100% of the daily needs of the individual, ranging from 2148  to 2242 calories and with the average of 2207 calories in line with the standards of WHO and nutrition sector 

This will be done by constructing and operating one kitchen with the capacity of 7200 meals per day to 3600 beneficiaries(2 meals to each beneficiary per day) 

The meals will be prepared according to a weekly program where this program will achieve a variety of cooked meals basing on the standards of Sphere in the amount of protein and fat taking into account the percentage of calcium in each meal for the health of pregnant and lactating mothers and be compatible with the culture of the beneficiaries and their habits with the possibility of changing the meals according to the feedback from the beneficiaries. After cooking the meals and packaging them in the kitchens, SCA will move them to the to the sites of IDPs and distribute the cooked meals in coordination with the committees representing the beneficiaries


The project will target the new displaced IDPs in the new established IDP sites(three months and less) under Dana and Maaret Tamsrin sub-districts who don’t have access to food assistance from any sources , cooking tools , capacity to purchase food depending on themselves in the locations defined basing on the needs assessment with much focus on the female headed HHs , households headed by the people with disabilities and other vulnerable groups. 

This project is designed in a flexible way that work sites and beneficiaries can be changed according to the changes that may occur in the context, especially the new IDPs who move between several sites in the first weeks of displacement. This project can respond to any expected needs of displacements coordination with FSL Cluster.
Scale up of Winterization Response in NW Syria 2020-2021 **Mercy-USA for Aid and Development in this project will support internally displaced persons (IDPs) and host community in Afrin, Jandairis, and Dana sub-districts with winterization support in the form of in-kind, eco-friendly biofuel, and stove kits

Total number of beneficiaries who will be targeted 3567 HH - 17880 individuals (Men 3592- Women 3929 Boys 4822- Girls 5537) by using in-kind modality for implementation for the most vulnerable households. Mercy-USA will target each household with in-kind 750 kg of olive pit fuel (250 kg per month) throughout the winter months (December 2020, January 2021 and February 2021). The initial fuel distribution will occur along with the stoves’ distribution or shortly after distributing the stoves to 100% of the targeted households to ensure all beneficiaries have the appropriate stoves to use olive-pit fuel

The Shelter NFI cluster recommendations at minimum 750kg/ HH/ 3 months, however, based on many PDM conducted by Mercy-USA after each winterization project since 2015. Always the quantity is not enough for beneficiaries given the fact of harsh winter seasons in the last few years in NW Syria, so as lesson learned, we increased the distributed quantity per HH to be total (750 kg/ HH/ 3months)

Mercy-USA will distribute olive-pit fuel to the beneficiaries directly on monthly allotments based on monthly distribution plan by specifying dates for each location.

The implementation plan is the same in Afrin and Jandairis will be the same, however, Considering the beneficiaries are identified and verified in Jandairis, it is assumed distribution can start earlier in Jandairis communities

**Mercy-USA will distribute masks and soap along with stoves and fuel to the same beneficiaries to ensure protective measures against COVID-19 are in place without doing harm. each HH will receive five mask and 700 gram of soap on monthly basis. Soap will be donated by IRC to Mercy-USA in order to be distributed along with fuel as in integrated response and complementarity approach while masks will be purchased by Mercy-USA

**Accountability to Affected population (AAP) will be given high priority in this project by communications and sharing information with beneficiaries during all project phases, as well as using complaints and feedback mechanism which is accessible to all beneficiaries especially the most vulnerable such as persons with disabilities, the elderly, women and girls, thus taking corrective actions based on need.

** Furthermore, MEAL plan will be for all project stages such as verification of vulnerability assessment, distribution monitoring, PDM, with using different MEAL tools.

**Reporting will be on timely basis according to the priority, ex, narrative report will be interim and final, while other reports will be on a weekly basis.
