Addressing Immediate Needs of GBV Survivors Among the Internally Displaced Population, Through Life-Saving Multi-Sectoral Services in Kunduz and  Baghlan Provinces IMC  proposes to implement life-saving multi-sectoral services to GBV survivors and IDPs in Kunduz and, in Baghlan, with special attention to vulnerable groups, such as women, girls and boys through the following activities:

 Based on our  experience of UNFPA/CERF funded similar project in Balkh, Takhar, Kunduz and Baghlan, comprehensive psychosocial support and counseling services will be provided to IDP women, girls and boys through 2 4 women friendly health spaces (WFHSs) and 2 mobile teams in Kundoz and 2 WFHSs and 2 mobile teams in Baghlan provinces  . International Medical Corps is already implementing similar activities and will use its experience and lesson learnt from UNFPA funded project as value addition. Based on our previous experience with UNFPA/ CERF funded project 2000 women and girls will benefited from the WFHSs and 8000 from mobile services . 
 Additionally, establish a mechanism to refer GBV survivors to provide case-specific advanced level of services in other sectors, like medical care, mental health, legal, justice, police and safe houses services. 
 IMC will implement appropriate Basic Life Skills training, as a community entry point, to build trust on reporting and seek GBV support from the WFHSs, 
 Provide dignity kits to women/girls, not limited to the GBV survivors, but also other women/girls,. The kits are customized per the special needs of women and adolescent girls during specific situations. 
 Privacy and confidentiality of beneficiaries has been of paramount importance and all services will be provided through female psychosocial counselors and other project staff. Psychosocial counseling to GBV survivors will be individual basis and referral services with beneficiaries’ consent. Their records will be treated as confidential and only responsible staff will have access to it. 
 In order to follow proactive approach, IMC will establish four mobile teams, two per province (Baghlan amp Kunduz,) in order to extend the psychosocial support/counseling services to IDPs and GBV survivors, especially women and girls who have no easy access to Women Friendly Health Spaces. The IDP’s locations for the mobile teams will be selected in coordination with the Directorates of Refugees and Repatriations (DoRR) and UNOCHA. Gender element will be maintained in each team there will be one trained female psychosocial counselor and one male community mobilizer. The Community Mobilizers will organize and mobilize the communities to for the smooth implementation the project. This includes meetings with community elders/shura and orientation about the project activities and their support. In close consultation with community elders, the sites for mobile teams will be selected. This will also ensure community’s perspective in the project implementation. The mobile teams will provide services to the IDPs 5 days/week and each team will provide psychosocial counseling to at least 100 IDPs/ week. The counseling will be provided in groups as well as individually. In addition to psychosocial counseling, the mobile team will refer GBV survivors and other women/girls with concerns to WFHSs, other services like advanced mental health, medical care, legal and justice and Department of Women Affairs.
 IMC will implement the GBV awareness-raising activities in the IDP settlements and other places where IDPs reside. This will include campaigns, posters, community dialogue, discussions, and sharing of success stories. Through these activities, IDPs will be sensitized on GBV prevention, referral points, protection, and human rights.. 
 Establish close coordination with all stakeholders, including DOWA, WAW, BPHS implementers, PPHD, Protection/GBV sub-cluster, AHF, DORR, and AIHRC including other actors working on IDPs/GBV sector.
 Given the more concentration of IDPs in Kunduz and Baghlan, the new phase will focus on these two provinces than targeted four (Balkh, Takhar, Baghlan and Kunduz) under UNFPA
