Life -Saving Support for Vulnerable Children in Mukjar and Zalingei Localities of Central Darfur State through improvement of School Environment With the protracted humanitarian and economic crises, the level of food insecurity in Central Darfur has remained high with moderately food insecure households (32% in November 2017 amp 29% in November 2018), 4% severely food insecure, and 72% % of the households not affording a local food basket (WFP Sudan Comprehensive Food Security Assessment [CFSA] report, 2018). The WFP CFSA 2018 report noted that 33% of the households are adopting food-based coping strategies of maintaining minimum food consumption levels, while about 60% of the vulnerable households are resorting to extreme livelihood-based coping strategies of depleting their livelihood assets and reducing their household expenditures on health, safe water and education. The situation has caused livelihoods to collapse, food insecurity, malnutrition, poor health and WASH, reduced access to education for vulnerable children, and the resultant social distress and protection risks (child labor, early/forced child marriages, etc.) affecting most the vulnerable children and vicious poverty for the vulnerable households in Central Darfur state. 

The proposed SHF project is aimed at addressing and reversing the impacts of the current humanitarian and economic crises on the lives of vulnerable people in the targeted Mukjar and Zalingie localities of Central Darfur State. It conforms with the 2019-2nd Standard Allocation Strategy that aligns with the Sudan Multi-Year Humanitarian Strategy (MYHS) for 2017-19 and the Strategic Outcomes 2 and 3 of the 2019 Sudan Humanitarian Response Plan- “Outcome 2: Displaced populations, refugees, returnees and host communities meet their basic needs and/or access essential basic services while increasing their self-reliance, and Outcome 3: Vulnerable residents in targeted areas have improved nutrition status and increased resilience.
Multi-sector response for vulnerable South Sudanese refugees in Meriam and Gubaysh Localities, West Kordofan State The goal of the 12-month program is to contribute to Outcome 2 and Outcome 3 of the 2019 HRP by providing life-saving health, nutrition, and livelihoods support and basic services to reduce mortality rates, food insecurity and malnutrition status of the targeted population thus allowing them resilience.

The project will target 35,370 vulnerable individuals in the two states in line with the sector objectives to (1) improve HH food security and stable income, 2) increase the free access to Primary Health Care services, particularly maternal and child health (MCH), and improve the nutrition status of children and their mothers through CMAM programming. 
The multi-sectoral intervention aims at improving the well-being of the most vulnerable population by increasing access to health services by renovating health facilities, provide supplies and support to the MoH staff. Other services will include provision of nutritional support to children under five years and pregnant and lactating women (SAM and MAM treatment),deliver agriculture inputs, IGA services, climate smart agriculture techniques to improve the productivity and quality of food security. The project will build on existing resources and capacities by delivering targeted training to enhance existing health and nutrition protocols and standards. 

The intervention will improve HH and community resilience through an integrated approach, reducing the morbidity and mortality rate, as well as the root cause of their problems. These root causes include food insecurity, poor access to health and inadequate nutrition among the targeted groups. El Meiram and Ghubaysh localities are ranked in HNO at level 3.8, and 4 respectively and are therefore in line with SHF strategy.

The proposed intervention and activities are aligned with the needs and priorities of the government and UN-led sector strategies . strategies. Rehabilitation of existing basic services and infrastructure, strengthening of existing committees and community structures will be prioritized over new construction to reduce costs and maximize community resources. Existing positive coping mechanisms will be improved and strengthened with integrated mechanisms which allow for diversification within the target communities. Concern WW has been implementing SHF funding in West Darfur, West Kordofan and we are committed to roll out this proposed intervention based on international humanitarian principles and standards.
Provision of lifesaving Water Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH) Supplies to flood affected communities within areas at risk of waterborne disease outbreaks in Sudan. Yearly, floods and emergencies related to seasonal climatic shocks in Sudan destroys crops and damages infrastructure such as shelters / homes and water and sanitation facilities, displaces thousands and affects the most vulnerable populations. As of September 2019, the Humanitarian Aid Commission (HAC) estimates that approximately 346,300 people have been affected by heavy rains and flash floods across 16 states in Sudan. Reports indicate that the heavy rains and flash floods have caused the loss of lives and homes, the heavy rains have also damaged crops and infrastructure and the coping capacities of many vulnerable people remain limited. So far, approximately 41,514 homes have been destroyed and 27,742 homes have been damaged. Heavy rains are expected to continue and worsen in the coming weeks in River Nile, Red Sea, Al Jazeera, White Nile, North Kordofan, North Darfur and Khartoum States. As of 17 September 2019, approximately 94 cases of acute watery diarrhoea (AWD) / Cholera have been reported in Blue Nile with six deaths. According to the Ministry of Health, the states that have the next highest risks of cholera outbreak are White Nile, Gedaref, Sennar, Kassala and Khartoum states. Due to suboptimal health conditions and poor safe water management and sewage system structures, exacerbated by polluted water sources caused by collapsed / damaged latrines and recent floods there is a risk of cholera and other diarrhoeal diseases spreading if no emergency response interventions take place. 
Since June 2019, IOM provided assistance to a total of 11,304 beneficiaries by responding to some of the most critical WASH gaps and needs in Tawilla, North Darfur and across various locations in South Darfur (through distribution of chlorine to treat water sources) and will respond to some of the needs in Ardamata IDP camp in El Geneina, West Darfur through the emergency funds available. However, due to the lack of funding available, IOM’s emergency response for flood-affected people has been limited. Through the SHF Reserve Allocation IOM will provide critical WASH support to communities and reduce the risks of exposure to water borne diseases in the affected and vulnerable areas by: (1) reconstructing damaged latrines, (2) purchasing WASH supplies that will support (a) Chlorination of the existing improved water sources, (b) treatment and safe storage of water at household level, and (3) supporting the promotion of safer hygiene practices through the distribution of female hygiene kits, soap, jerry cans and Information, Education and Communication (IEC) materials. IOM will provide these life-saving interventions in North Darfur, West Darfur, White Nile and Blue Nile.
Improving  WASH  for South Sudan Refugees and Host community in El Mairam Locality of West Kordofan State The proposed project aims at improving access to sufficient and adequate WASH facilities in El Mairam Locality targeting 35,360 individuals from the resident vulnerable host communities and refugees in four villages (Galaha, El Gantoor, El Odam and El Heraika). The planned intervention aims to rehabilitate two existing water yards, equip them with solar pumping units as well as establishing of water four pipelines and distribution points in target locations to enable both refugees and host community have access to adequate water supply. Through this intervention, the project will assess the broken water yards and identify the required materials needed to rehabilitate the nonfunctioning points, provide the solar pumping units and other water materials for establishing the water pipeline and distribution points. The project will form water users committees in the target villages, train them on operation, maintenance and management of the rehabilitated and new constructed points. The committee members will be involved in planning, design of planned work and participate in the assessment for identification of spare parts and materials to get familiarized with work environment. 
The project will seek competent companies through open bidding or tender process to conduct the planned activities for water yard rehabilitations under close supervision of Islamic Relief staff and the selected user committees. The Locality water authorities will also be involved in designing and implementing the activity.
The planned activities of the project will also extend and contribute to increase access to sanitation facilities through mobilization of target communities to understand the importance of building their own latrines at household levels. The project will train hygiene promoter on hygiene related issue to participate with the staff in mobilizing both host community and refugees to practice proper sanitation behavior and avoid open defecations. The project will support the communities by availing the construction materials and the families will contribute by digging of latrine pits and fencing.
The project is also planning to provide cleaning tools and mobilize the refugees and host communities to conduct periodic cleaning campaigns in their villages to contribute in improving the environment and avoid sources of pollution and contaminating the surroundings. The project will target 600 most needed families from the refugees and host community and distribute hygiene kits to contribute in behavior change for target beneficiaries.
Public Awareness Campaign in Cholera-Affected Populations in Sinnar and  Blue Nile States The proposed project aims to Improved WASH Services for Cholera affected population in both Sennar and Blue Nile states by contributing to stop spreading of cholera outbreak to new areas and populations and containing outbreak in already affected areas and safeguard lives of affected populations addition to disseminate education messages and scale up community awareness and involve community members actively in prevention activities to encourage personal and environmental hygiene promotion.
The proposed intervention aims to address these issues through the following activities, conduct 40 hygiene campaigns in each state including home visits plus hygiene awareness sessions, cleaning campaigns and distribution of hygiene NFIs (IEC materials, soap, hygiene kits), Public lectures/mobilization posters and leaflets distributions, 20 video shows (mobile video), mobile theatre also awareness sessions at houses and health facilities and at schools for the school’s students. Education/orientation session to community leaders and religious leaders and education messages through radio and television addition to all that hygiene promotion training for 120 community leaders will be conducted amp CHVs in AWD affected areas using CLTS approach.
IRW will ensure collaboration with the Ministry of Health, WES, WHO and UNICEF to help in preparing for the current Cholera outbreak in the state. Organizations established in the ongoing projects will be used for organizing people and events in the locality and villages. The proposed intervention will contribute to the ongoing response in the localities and integration with the ongoing project will ensure its sustainability.
Integrated Emergency Response Project to support refugees, IDPs, vulnerable host communities and returnees in Abu Jubaiha and Talodi Localities, South Kordofan State, Sudan. The goal of the project is to contribute to Outcome 2 and Outcome 3 of the 2019 HRP by providing life-saving, integrated health and nutrition services to reduce morbidity and mortality rates related to malnutrition and other diseases affecting the targeted population. 

The project will target 60,000 vulnerable individuals (27,000M, 33,000F) in South Kordofan state s in line with the sector objectives increase the free access to Primary Health Care services (PHC), particularly for maternal and child health (MCH), and improve the nutrition status of children and their mothers through CMAM programming. 

The proposed interventions aim at improving the well-being of the most vulnerable groups by increasing access to PHC services in existing rural health facilities and mobile outreach services, providing OTP to children U5 and pregnant and lactating women (SAM and MAM treatment). The project will build on existing resources and capacities by improving the already available services with a special focus on reaching hard to reach areas where particularly refugees and other vulnerable groups e.g. nomads, IDPs settle. 

The intervention will improve HH and community resilience through an integrated approach, reducing the morbidity and mortality rate as well as their root causes. These root causes include poor access to health and nutrition services, poor health, hygiene and nutrition practices among the targeted communities, increase in the number of refugee that exerts pressure on existing resources in line with SHF strategy. The project will also focus on urging awareness raising to AWD, cholera prevention, malaria prevention, and related water born disease that is the aggravated causes of malnutrition.

The proposed intervention and activities are aligned with the needs and priorities of the government and UN-led sector strategies. The rehabilitation of existing basic services and infrastructure, strengthening of existing committees and community structures will be prioritized over new constructions to reduce costs and maximize community resources. Existing positive coping mechanisms will be enhanced and strengthened with integrated mechanisms, which allows the diversification within the target communities. Concern Worldwide (WW) has been implementing SHF funded projects in West Kordofan since 2014. We are committed to roll out this interventions, based on international humanitarian principles and standards

Emergency intervention to protect livelihood of vulnerable individuals affected by floods in Kuma locality, North Darfur In the early July 2019 heavy rains accompanied with strong winds and floods hit Kuma town in North Darfur. Numerous houses and public spaces have been destroyed, water infrastructures have been broken and heavy losses have been reported in food items and livelihood assets.
The main livelihood activity for the population of Kuma is livestock rearing. Small ruminant are the key livelihood assets for pastoral and agro-pastoral communities, as a source of food, dairy products and income. Being highlighted as a major concern in the 10th of July 2019 interagency assessment, the recent floods resulted in the depletion of food stocks and in the loss and destruction of households assets, especially small ruminants (sheep and goats).
Increasing prices of seeds and livelihood assets combined with the generalized inflation are leading vulnerable households affected by floods to an increasingly dire situation, requiring urgent humanitarian assistance in order to reduce negative copying strategies. 
Through this project, livelihood assets will be recovered and self-reliance fostered reaching 430 vulnerable households affected by floods in Kuma locality. This project will reach a total of 2,578 direct beneficiaries out of which over 55% are women and children.
