Strengthening and enhancing Social Protection for South Sudanese refugees men, women, girls and boys in Al Nimir camp  East Darfur. This project aims to provide protection support for extremely vulnerable South Sudanese refugees and some IDPs in camps and host communities in Al Nimir camp East Darfur. 
The project will be implemented through an integrated approach, around two pillars:  1. strengthening the community based prevention mechanisms, 2. improving the community based protection response systems 
Activities proposed are  A rapid needs assessment on Persons with Specific needs will be undertaken and referral pathways established to map available services hence guide beneficiaries to services.  Social workers will be trained with support from UNHCR to carryout individual vulnerability Assessments to ensure targeted support through material assistance including support devices and referrals to available services. GAH will then Identify vulnerable people and ensure that they have access to available social protection services while  providing targeted assistance to Persons with Specific Needs (PSN) including Persons with Disabilities (PWD) single headed female, households, women at risk including Survivors of GBV and elderly persons. To these individual vulnerability assessments will be done to ascertain their level of need. GAH will identify and train 20 community volunteers in each area of intervention (General Protection, Child Protection and GBV) to assist in identifying and referring PSNs to social workers for case management. It is among these trained volunteers that GAH will establish and strengthen a Community Based Protection Networks (CBPN) and the  other Community Based Protection Networks.  GAH will train identified vulnerable but economically active beneficiaries on business planning and management using the CHF manual on IGAs and support them to start-up small businesses. Construct a child friendly space in Al Nimir East Darfur for children to provide a  safe space where they can access PSS and recreation which will also contribute to reducing protection risks faced by children particularly those at risk (CAR). The centers will also be points for family tracing and reunification services. Furnish the CFS with play and recreational materials and conduct activities at the centers for children including those at risk, have a desk for FTR support.  A rapid Child Protection assessment will be undertaken and referral pathways established. Establish and strengthen a CBCPN to offer service to children and ensure effective case referral.  Train the CBCPN members on the approved curricula to ensure quality delivery of services. The establishment of the Community Based Child Protection Networks through identification and training of 20 community volunteers will play an important role in the prevention and mitigation of abuse and in outreach to children in most need and in all segments of the community particularly children and their parents. As part of the CP related risk response and mitigation, the CBCPNs will be linked to the locality level Community Based Child Protection Working Groups. BIAs  will conducted for Children at Risk including UASC who are in foster care and material support provided. Alternative care arrangements will be provided to UASC and regular monitoring will be undertaken. Conduct 2 mass campaigns in each target area on the importance of education and especially girl child education child rights and peaceful coexistence. GAH will Construct 1 centre to provide a safe space for women to meet interact, engage in low threshold recreational activities and access PSS plus learning new skills in a health nutrition or business. The place may also offer services in RHE, women groups for women and girls . Women at Risk including Survivors of GBV will be identified and an individual vulnerability assessment conducted to ensure appropriate material support and referral to available services. Personal Hygiene Kits will be provided to some women and other PSN. The center will also be a community multi purpose center.
