Provision of quality life saving health services and responding to health related emergencies(Corepipeline supplies, enhancing outbreak preparedness and response,Trauma management), affecting the vulnurable populations of South Sudan The proposed project will contribute to the life saving interventions within the health sector strategic priorities. Procurement and distribution of these items is a top priority in the Health Cluster, in order to prevent common childhood diseases and common morbidities, epidemics and responding mass causalities from conflict areas. Emergency drug supplies will contribute to continuation of basic curative services as a measure of maintaining the front line services.
Currently the available pipeline supplies are not adequate to cover the next six months  and there will be a rupture/break in the pipeline by mid October  in the event more funding is not availed. The current stock amounts to only 30% of the target for 2016. Lack of pipeline supplies will translate to about 1.4 million people not reached with life saving supplies and hence excess mortality and morbidity that would have been averted. It is very critical to have funding through CHF to enable WHO procure the much needed corepipeline supplies otherwise we will be dealing with a major humanitarian gap to support the humanitarian response. Eight key states(Unity, Upper Nile,Warrap,Northern Bahr el Ghazal,Lakes,Jonglei,CES and EES) are ear marked to benefit from the strategic  prepositioning as top priority
Strengthened Camp Coordination and Camp Management for improved living conditions and transitional/durable solutions for Internally Displaced Persons in South Sudan ACTED will continue to strengthen its existing site coordination and management in Juba (UN House POC site) and Bor South (Bor POC site) to provide life-saving services 30.276IDPs.
In line with the CCCM Cluster Strategic Objectives for 2016, ACTED will seek to strengthen camp coordination and camp management structures to coordinate the delivery and monitoring of humanitarian services to improve living conditions of IDPs living in Juba and Bor.  In order to reach this objective, ACTED will contribute its expertise and contextual knowledge to the cluster system as co-lead of CCCM cluster and will continue its duties as State Focal Point for Central Equatorial and Lakes. Furthermore, ACTED will work with the communities to guarantee that governance structures are in place and accountable to population needs, while ensuring that both sites are organized, maintaining basic infrastructure and guarantying site preparation, site demarcation, and allocation of plots to new arrivals or relocated IDPs.

Considering, the recent steps given towards the implementation of the peace agreement, ACTED will support IDPs towards attaining durable solutions disseminating information on the peace agreement and facilitating that their views and concerns are taking into consideration in the planning process.

Variations in gender, ethnic origin, physical ability and age that affect vulnerability and coping strategies are identified and taken into account for planning to prevent their situation from deteriorating even further. Additionally, contingency plans are developed and put in place to ensure ACTED can quickly adapt to and respond to changing humanitarian needs on the ground. 

In line with the 2016 CCCM Cluster Strategy- execution of capacity building with staff and local authorities where necessary in coordination with other CCCM partners in South Sudan and the CCCM Cluster.

This project proposal outlines 3 months of project activities within the framework of a 6 month project. As such, both activity indicators and budget figures within this proposal are meant represent only 3 months of project implementation.

Provision of Humanitarian Air Services in South Sudan United Nations Humanitarian Air Service (UNHAS) provides safe, reliable, effective, and efficient air transport services for the humanitarian community in South Sudan. UNHAS transports light cargo and passengers as well as conducts medical and security evacuation. More than 230 organizations use UNHAS services, including NGOs (65%),  UN agencies (34%),  donor community and Government personnel involved in humanitarian activities. These organisations depend on UNHAS to access remote areas where humanitarian operations are ongoing.

Further, UNHAS will continue to support the deployment of inter-agency emergency assessment and rapid response mission teams based on need.  A procedure for the prioritization of inter-agency assessment missions and improved synchronization of passenger and cargo movement is being implemented by UNHAS and Logistics Cluster to ensure speedy and targeted response to critical locations. From recent trends, request for such missions will continue in 2016.

It is expected that conflict in four countries, including South Sudan, will be one of the major drivers of prolonged humanitarian needs globally in 2016 . The humanitarian community in South Sudan targets to provide assistance to 5 million out of the estimated 8.2 million people in need of assistance in 2016 and requires unrestrained access to the areas with most critical needs, mainly in the three conflict-affected states (Upper Nile, Jonglei and Unity). 

However, poor road network, seasonal rains, vast distances between project implementation sites and the ongoing conflict make air transport the only means to access many of these affected population. Further, there is no local commercial alternatives for passenger air transport services, as existing commercial service providers do not meet the safety and technical standards required , which makes UNHAS one of the few options available.

Based on historical data since the beginning of the conflict, UNHAS projects that the demand for the air services will remain the same. UNHAS will operate a fleet of 12 fixed wing aircraft and 3 helicopters based strategically in Juba, Rumbek, Bor and Wau to ensure regular and reliable services. In 2016, UNHAS will reinforce the spokes-and-hubs configuration by positioning a 19-seater Let 410 in Wau to increase the speed of response to emergencies in Unity State and environs.

UNHAS targets to meet the travel needs of 250 humanitarian organizations and to serve 50 scheduled destinations during the year. UNHAS User Group will continue to provide information on the areas of highest need for access during the monthly User Group Meeting. UNHAS also participates in the weekly meeting of the Operational Working Group, a subsidiary of the Inter-Agency Working Group, where decisions are made on priority locations for a given period of time. Identified priority locations are added to UNHAS weekly schedule and flight frequency increased or reduced based on need.
Provision of FSL pipeline to protect the livelihoods of crisis-affected populations in Greater Equatoria, South Sudan As 2016 nears to a close, humanitarian needs in South Sudan are at the highest levels seen in recent years.The majority of food-insecure people live in the Greater Upper Nile and Greater Bahr el Ghazal. However, increased general insecurity and fighting over is creating different food insecurity hotspots in areas of Greater Equatoria which are historically food secure. The project therefore aims to build FAO pipeline capacity to support the resilience of livelihoods, including protection of the most vulnerable population groups, and enhance livelihood-based productive sectors, while reducing vulnerability to shocks and stressors. This will be achieved through the procurement and provision of crop seed pipeline, associated warehousing and transport costs to meet increased need of the vulnerable population in Greater Equatoria.
Provision of emergency nutrition supplies for management of SAM cases  in South Sudan This is to procure nutrition emergency supplies to respond to the treatment of severe acute malnutrition and emergency services response This is to ensure an efficient and uninterrupted provision of core emergency nutritionlife-saving supplies to implementing partners for responding to the needs of an estimated 17,934 children 6- 59 months (boys and girls) with severe acute malnutrition. The project will enhance pipeline management capacity of the nutrition cluster partners in South Sudan with a focus on the Greater Equatoria states.
Provision of Emergency Robust Shelter to Vulnerable Displaced and Displacement Affected Population in Melut County In the past few Years, DRC using UNHCR grants, provided targeted emergency shelters assistance and access to basic services for persons with specific needs (PWSNs) and their families, through the provision of acute emergency shelters kits made of plastic sheets, small bamboo sticks and few nails. The continuation of conflict, protracted displacement and additional influxes into displacement sites in Melut County (Dethoma 1 amp 2, Korhadar, Malek and New Paloich School) are expected to continue in through 2017. 
Providing shelters being a process rather than a product, this project aims to ensure the continued provision of essential emergency Shelters services to vulnerable displaced population in different sites within Melut County, through the implementation of construction in line with the Shelter/NFI Cluster objectives, humanitarian best practices and protection and gender considerations.  DRC will run a shelter assessment in different IDPs sites in Melut County to identify vulnerable households eligible to benefit an upgrade to a robust emergency shelter which enhance the living conditions of 2400 individuals by providing them with more dignified shelter solution.  The provision of the robust emergency shelters includes shelter construction assistance.  5 % of the beneficiaries will come from the hosts communities.  
This new shelter solution is designed through a beneficiary participated process, by giving beneficiaries a chance to choose the model they would like and recommending minor adjustments which can be accommodated in the budget limits. Although beneficiaries of the robust emergency shelter stage are well targeted, the projects also aim for a long-term impact of enhancing communities through improving local construction techniques.  Therefore DRC will ensure that beneficiaries and their communities are involved during the whole project implementation period, starting from the design phase. 
In order to select beneficiaries following the set vulnerability criteria, forecast the shelters needs and to inform the shelter programming, DRC shelter team will conduct shelter assessments on several sites in Melut County, security permitting, and will conduct surveys on intentions, following age and gender dis-aggregation. 
All DRC shelter programme activities are conducted jointly with DRC camp management and protection units to ensure basic protection concerns considering age and sex are captured and future programming anticipated. In the construction and maintenance of the shelters DRC favors locally procured items whenever possible and consider the environmental
Improving provision of protection assistance to save lives, alleviate suffering and contribute to a protective environment in South Sudan. More than two years into the conflict, the population of South Sudan who have gone through appalling violations of humanitarian and human rights laws continues to require protection assistance. Given the conflict’s dynamic and non-linear trajectory, those needs change over time and across geographical locations. 

Inside the Malakal (PoC) site where services have substantially improved, Melut IDP settlements where few actors are offering resource constrained services in the wake of increasing number of people being displaced into these settlements, other constraints continue to plague efforts to meet minimum standards. The prolonged displacement has aggravated stress and trauma, exacerbated the suffering of the more vulnerable segments of the population (e.g. children, the elderly, persons with disabilities, etc.). It has weakened the community’s social coping mechanisms. Outside the PoC, in places such as Wau Shilluk, the population is even more vulnerable due to the absence of the protective presence of United Nations (UN) personnel and the services of NGOs, but also due to the lack of information about their plight.

Therefore, for a protection program to be responsive, its activities must be continually informed of the changes in the context, inform and coordinated and draw upon the programs of other actors plus involve and engage members of the conflict affected communities.

Two other major considerations inform the country protection strategy of Danish Refugee Council (DRC) in South Sudan: the need to prioritize for assistance the most vulnerable persons among the population referred to as Persons With Specific Needs (PWSN), such as elderly, women, and children at risk, or persons with disabilities and the increasing need to cater to populations outside the PoC sites of the United Nations Mission In South Sudan (UNMISS). 

Given these considerations, DRC proposes to undertake protection activities in order to save lives, alleviate suffering and contribute to a protective environment in South Sudan Upper Nile State.
Provision of ES and NFIs through Emergency Response Team to the most vulnerable communities in South Sudan Under this project proposal, PAH will provide life-saving ES-NFIs to the most vulnerable communities in South Sudan, targeting 39,000 beneficiaries displaced due to conflict, natural disasters or economic crisis. 
 The activities will be conducted by PAH Emergency Response Team (ERT) comprised of ES-NFI specialist who will conduct assessments, prepare and carry out distributions with demonstration on the use of items distributed e.g. mosquito nets, solar lamps. 
PAH will involve the beneficiaries on all the stages of the intervention to provide response best suited for the needs of particular community served, taking into account vulnerabilities of each represented group: men, women, boy and girls. Strong focus will be made to ensure that the most sensitive groups (e.g. persons with disabilities, pregnant and lactating women, and unaccompanied elders/minors) in the community will be served appropriately to their needs and in the manner not exposing them to additional stress.
The response will be coordinated with the S-NFI cluster on national and state level gathered information on the needs will be shared with partners and donors to ensure the best use of the partners’ capacity. The reports from distribution will also be circulated together with Post Distribution Monitoring report to contribute to improvements in preparation of the future response and creation of S-NFI cluster strategy in the coming years.
Improving host and displaced population and other vulnerable groups’ access to and utilization of quality essential and emergency health services in Mundri East County (Western Equatoria State) The project reflects the Health Cluster response strategy to the main emergency health related needs, to be implemented in the area of Mundri East  County (Western Equatoria State), recognized as priority. In particular, the project will contribute to the following Health Cluster Objectives
-Improve access and scale-up responsiveness to essential and emergency health care, including addressing the major causes of mortality among U5 (malaria, diarrhea, Pneumonia), and emergency obstetrics and neonatal care services, including SGBV services
The project aims increasing access to and utilization of quality essential and emergency health services, including EmONC, through the reinforcement of the existing facilities and the provision of outreach frontline health services in Mundri East County (MEC). Service provision will be in line with the BPHS, inclusive of the HIV/AIDS package, integrated into the overall offer. The project will target both host and displaced population, with particular focus on the most vulnerable groups (women and children), facilitated by an age and gender sensitive approach informing the overall strategy and all the planned activities. The inclusion of SGBV management is a specific response to a type of conflict related consequences on women health and wellbeing, 
Mundri West and Mvolo community as well will benefit of the action, being their referral Hospital (Lui) located in Mundri East and included in the present intervention.
-Prevent, detect and respond to epidemic prone disease outbreaks in conflict affected and vulnerable states
All the activities will contribute to the health system strengthening, functional to prompt detection of and response to health emergencies. Action’s impact will be amplified through its integration into the County Health Plan, under CHD stewardship and under the constant monitoring of the local communities, whose involvement will be ensured. This will be facilitated being CUAMM County Leading Agency in Mundri East. 
Under both these two main objectives, the project will target severe acute malnutrition (SAM), as contributing to U5 morbidity and mortality and to people vulnerability towards epidemic prone diseases
Provision of lifesaving Emergency Reproductive Health supplies for conflict affected population in Wau This is a core pipeline project and its primary objective is to ensure availability of emergency reproductive health supplies and commodities at all health facilities providing  lifesaving reproductive health services such as emergency obstetric care, clean delivery, management of complications of abortions among other services.The project will target 87,000 people of whom 21,750 are women of reproductive age group.
Provision of Emergency Shelter and NFI to people in need in South Sudan (Pipeline) This project is focused on the procurement and transport of emergency shelter materials for the common Shelter-NFI pipeline in South Sudan. In order to maximize the dry season months during which this project will take place, IOM as the pipeline procurement agency will procure shelter materials in the first 3 months of 2016 in order for them to then be transported by road and barge to strategic locations across the country. The 2,250 robust kits procured under this project will be prioritized for transport to the Malakal Protection of Civilians (POC) site where households that have lived in tents for the past 2 years require a more robust and locally appropriate shelter solution ahead of the rainy season which is set to begin by May or June. The 2,400 reinforcement kits procured under this project will be sent to Bor, Bentiu and/or Juba POCs, as urgent needs are identified and needs are prioritized. IOM will focus specifically on shelter with this project because it is critical to provide adequate shelter before the rains begin to ensure dry conditions at the household level, and as the shelter pipeline in early 2016 will only have 20% of stock required to address the known shelter needs, particularly in concentrated sites. It is also crucial that shelter materials such as wooden poles and bundles of bamboo be transported during the dry season before roads become impassable as it is cost prohibitive to transport these by air given their relative size and weight. While IOM will cover the majority of transport costs to the final destination in order to ensure timely delivery, it will coordinate with the Logistics Cluster and common transport assets for air transport in particular of lighter items such as ropes from logistics hubs.
Provision and Management of WASH Core Pipeline Supplies for Timely Emergency Preparedness and Response in in South Sudan UNICEF as the Cluster lead for WASH, manages 75 per cent of the core pipeline function on behalf of the cluster partners for 2016. This project is for planning, procurement, pre-positioning, distribution and management of critical emergency core pipeline supplies for 95,000 IDPs and their host communities affected by different emergencies. UNICEF will work with local government authorities and implementing partners (INGOs, NGOs, CBOs, FBOs etc) at various levels to streamline access to, and utilization of, these supplies. End user monitoring of the supplies will ensure that supplies procured address the real needs of the vulnerable population. The WASH core pipeline project activities are designed to complement front line project activities by ensuring critical NFIs such as soap, water storage containers, water purification products etc. are timely procured, supplied and distributed to IDPs while awaiting for rehabilitation of critical WASH infrastructure in the host communities supporting them. Menstrual hygiene management will be an important focus in this project whereby MHM kits will be distributed to adolescent girls and women of child bearing age their menstrual hygiene needs are addressed with dignity.
