Empowering Vulnerable Children: Holistic Support and Child Protection Outreach ltpgtThe proposed IRC Child Protection (CP) response aims to enhance basic CP services for returnees from Sudan and IDPs in Rubkona and Guit Counties. The program will target 10,085 individuals (2627 Men, 2618 Women, 2420 Girls and 2420 Boys) from returnees, IDPs and host communities in these counties. The program will provide both mobile and static response to prevent and respond to abuse, neglect, exploitation, and violence against children in Rubkona (Returnees site in the old commissioner compound in Bentiu town, IDP sites DE) and Guit Counties (Guit town, Kuergeng  Dadok payams). The program will also complement existing IRC’s CP intervention in Rotriak returnees’ site in Rubkona County. The project aims to provide a holistic CP response for children who have suffered from family separation, abuse, exploitation, or violence. It has four components: (1) Comprehensive case management: for 400 (200 B, 200 G) children who will receive direct support while 338 children receive cash assistance in line with their case plan and others will be referred for different services as per the referral pathway, Family Tracing and Reunification (FTR) for at least 30 unaccompanied and/or separated children, and access and referral to services. (2) Psychosocial-Support (PSS) and Social Emotional Learning (SEL): 2240 (1120 B, 1120B) children will access three Safe Healing and Learning Spaces (SHLS) and recreational games at the community level, 200 (60M,140 F) caregivers/foster parents will participate in Families Make the Difference (FMD) parenting skills training, and 150 (75 B and 75 G) adolescents and 150 (45 M, 105F) caregivers will benefit from Supporting Adolescents and their Families in Emergency (SAFE) training. (3) Community-based Child Protection Network (CBCPN): The project will strengthen the CP structure and community outreach and awareness on CP and GBV risks and prevention measures to 7000 individuals. And (4) Child-friendly complaint mechanism:  the project will strengthen the compliant mechanism in Rubkona and establish it in Guit County. The project also aims to strengthen the child protection system in Unity State by building the skills and knowledge of project staff, government officials, local partners and service providers. The IRC, as the co-chair of the Child Protection Area of Responsibility (CPAoR), will conduct trainings for 60 participants on topics such as child protection principles, case management, Psychological First Aid (PFA) and SHLS/SEL. The trainings will enhance the quality and sustainability of the child protection services in the area. The project will be managed by the CP Manager, who is currently leading the Sudan Response in Rotriak, with technical support from the CP Coordinator in Juba and a team of new field staff, including a Deputy CP Manager, two Case Management Officers, two Psychosocial Support Officers, one ME Officer, five Case Workers and four Social Workers.ltbrgtlt/pgt
Lifesaving WASH Services to Returnees from Sudan, Rubkona County, Unity State ltpgt


lt/pgtltp style="margin-bottom:9.95pt" class="MsoNormal"gtltspan style="" lang="EN-US"gtThe project aims to improve access to safe water and sanitation
for most vulnerable returnees, refugees and host community in Rubkona County,
Unity State to avoid the deterioration of already existing WASH vulnerabilities
in areas facing the influx of returnees from current crisis in Sudan. This will
be achieved by drilling of new boreholes and construction of latrines in areas
where the returnees have integrated with Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs).
The project will provide lifesaving WASH assistance to 17,000 (7,650 male, 9,350 female) beneficiaries in Rotriak, Bentiu IDP camp, Site E and D2 in
Rubkona County, Unity State, South Sudan. lt/spangtltspan lang="EN-US"gtlt/spangtlt/pgt

ltp style="margin-bottom:9.95pt" class="MsoNormal"gtIn Rotriak, Concern will drill 2 new boreholes equipped with
solar water yard to provide access to safe water (as per sphere standards) to
about 9,000 people (one borehole of 2.5 horse power serving 4,500 people). Concern will engage with state ministry and target community in the
beginning of the project to ensure that the local authority and community take
the responsibility of managing the new boreholes. The Water Management Committees
(WMCs) will be formed and trained to ensure routine operation and maintenance
(OM) of the solar water systems. The influx of returnees is likely to
deteriorate already poor sanitation conditions in existing IDPs (Bentiu IDP
camp-Sector 5, Site E and D-2), therefore, Concern will newly construct 10 blocks of
latrines (40 stances) in targeted IDP camps. Each block with 4 stance gender
segregated latrines will provide access to safe sanitation to about 2,000 beneficiaries in targeted IDP camps. In Bentiu IDP camp, Concern has dedicated
cleaners (supported by other donor) to ensure routine cleaning of the latrine.
While in Site E and D2, Concern will continue to promote assigning the latrine
to specific number of household to ensure routine cleaning and OM. 30 blocks (ltspan style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif color: black" lang="EN-US"gt120 stances) of latrines will be repaired ltbrgtto provide access to safe sanitation to about 6,000 beneficiaries in targeted IDP camps

. The latrine for PWDs will also be rehabilitated/repaired considering their specific needs.lt/spangt



lt/pgtltp style="margin-bottom:9.95pt" class="MsoNormal"gtConcern is among the lead WASH agencies in Unity State with standing MoU
signed with State Ministry of Housing, Land and Public Utilities (SMoHLPU)
to ensure timely and quality assistance to vulnerable communities. Concern will
leverage from established linkages and relationship with the community and
local authorities to ensure community ownership throughout the project. Given
the short duration of the project and humanitarian imperative, Concern will
seek waiver from tendering process from its HQ to select pre-identified
contractor from Bentiu to ensure timely drilling of boreholes and construction
of latrines.lt/pgtltp class="sceditor-nlf"gtltbrgtlt/pgt

Provision of multipurpose cash assistance to mitigate flood risks in Bentiu, South Sudan ltp class="MsoNormal"gtThe project aspires to contribute to preventing, reducing
and responding to the needs of flood-affected and flood prone communities in
Rubkona and Bentiu through multipurpose cash assistance (MPCA). With SSHF's financial
support, IOM will provide MPCA to 8,750 people (1,458 households) in Rubkona and
Bentiu to reduce flood risk. The cash distribution will help them cope with the
rainy season and meet their needs. The assistance will also support the cash programming
and the local economy in the country. 
The MPC assistance value is fixed by the allocation strategy. One-time
assistance of three months of full SMEB ($120*3) will be transferred through
financial service providers (FSP) in Bentiu and Rubkona. Rubkona and Bentiu have
functional markets, so cash and voucher assistance is feasible and fast for
urgent assistance. IOM will implements the project directly as it has a large
operational base and is a leading agency providing cash, shelter, WASH and CCCM
support to the IDPs.ltbrgtIn South Sudan, IOM is the co-lead and host of the
Interagency CWG and is committed to improving the strategic, technical, and
operational skills of the IOM team, partners, and Cash community of practice on
quality humanitarian programming through CVA interventions. At sub-national
level, IOM leads the CWG group. IOM has been implementing cash programs in
South Sudan since 2016 and has trained cash experts, developed detailed SOPs,
and signed contracts with Financial Service Providers for cash disbursement. In
the last year, IOM assisted over 117,000 people with CVA in Bentiu, Rubkona,
Malakal, Pibor, Twic, Wau, Raga, Bor, Abyei and Fangak. IOM will use the CWG
guidelines and internal CBI protocol/SOPs prepared by IOM at the global level.
IOM understands that due to the critical nature of the project and the cash
provision, the project monitoring and evaluation will be strong and timely. To
measure results and monitor the process, the project will conduct a rapid and
post-distribution monitoring with a representative sample of beneficiaries.
Rapid monitoring will be done at all stages of the project activities and key
recommendations will be applied to improve the project quality.ltbrgtlt/pgtltp class="MsoNormal"gt

IOM will take a holistic approach by ensuring complementary
activities with other Clusters (sectors). Protection mainstreaming is central
to this project so that project teams and partners follow the principle of
doing no harm. Participation of the affected communities will be ensured
through meetings with representatives of all social groups and FGDs. The
project will also establish a complaint Feedback Mechanism to address
complaints and track their status

Living-saving NFIs and semi-transitional shelter assistance to vulnerable returnees displaced by Sudan crisis in Malakal, Upper Nile State_South Sudan ltpgtltfont face="Arial, sans-serif"gtThis intervention aims to respond to the critical
and urgent shelter and NFIs needs of returnees in Malakal displaced due to the
ongoing Sudan crisis and focus on reducing their vulnerabilities and protection
risks associated with exposure to harsh living conditions. The action reinforces
the priorities and objectives of the South Sudan Humanitarian Fund (SSHF) reserved
allocation 6, the South Sudan Emergency Response Strategy to Sudan Crisis, and S/NFI cluster strategy.  It specifically addresses the shelter and NFI needs of those
returnees with the most standing and critical needs. The intervention is informed
by the grim outlook of the returnees’ situation in the settlement sites in
Malakal, necessitating the need to provide the most urgent and context-adapted
shelter assistance to reduce suffering, enhance privacy, and protection of
at-risk groups, particularly vulnerable women, children, girls, elderly and
persons with disabilities/chronic illness. The action contributes to the core
strategic objective (2) of the South Sudan Emergency for Sudan crisis to provide
protection and services to the most vulnerable South Sudanese returnees through
a multisectoral response. It contributes directly to the shelter and NFI
cluster strategic objective of the Sudan crisis response. The project will provide
locally appropriate and sustainable shelter solutions to conflict-affected
people building on the ongoing experience of HDC and other S/NFI cluster partners,
particularly IOM, ADA and UNHCR in Malakal. This response will be delivered through a coordinated
structure, involving the returnees, the community leaders, local authorities, the
state S/NFI cluster, and actors to ensure coherence and integrated service
delivery. Key activities will include distribution of NFIs to 1000 HHs (7,000 individuals-4550 women, 738 girls, 732 boys and 980 men-PwDs and older persons), construction of semi-transitional shelters for 186 households (1302 individuals-912 women, 137 girls, 136 boys and 117 men, particularly the persons with disabilities, those with chronic illness, and older persons). Along with these core activities, HDC will mainstream core protection activities such as Housing, Land and Property rights and legal act awareness raising, GBV risk mitigation, as well as prevention of sexual exploitation and abuse, including awareness on the reporting protocols and service providers. lt/fontgtlt/pgt
