Multi sectoral approach (Nutrition, Education, Child Protection and Health) to vulnerable populations affected by flooding in targeted counties in Jonglei, Upper Nile and Unity states The planned education interventions aim to provide facilities in areas affected by flood to ensure that school-age children, adolescents and youth in vulnerable populations have access to humanitarian basic education services, and to provide opportunity for continued education and necessary life skills on prevention of cholera and other diseases, and psychosocial support (PSS). UNICEF will provide the essential education supplies core pipeline and supplement frontline education activities in Jonglei (Pibor, Uror), Upper Nile (Nasir, Ulang,  Maban) and Unity. The project will target 95,472 children (30% girls) and adolescents and 450 teachers (135 women) The supply component will include student kits, teacher kits, Early Childhood Development (ECD) kits and dignity kits.
The project also aims to support lifesaving nutrition interventions, mainly treatment of children with severe acute malnutrition (SAM) through the integrated rapid response mechanism (IRRM) modality which is a proven delivery channel to provide nutrition services in some of the flood affected counties (Pibor, Maban, Uror, Nassir and Ulang). The IRRM locations will be identified based on needs with prioritization and focus on five counties out of  the 30 priority flood affected counties. This project is designed to benefit a total of 12,280 beneficiaries (144 girls, 136 boys, 10,000 women and 2,000 men) from the host communities and Internally Displaced Populations (IDPs) in the targeted locations through IRRM activities. Children aged 6-59 months will be screened for SAM out of which 280 children (144 girls and 136 boys) with SAM are expected to be treated. 12,000 pregnant, lactating mothers and caregivers (including men) of children under five years are targeted to receive individual counselling on maternal infant and young child feeding practices (MIYCF). A total of 40 health workers will be trained on community management of acute malnutrition (CMAM), 40 health and nutrition workers will be trained on maternal infant and young child nutrition (MIYCN) training packages based on national protocols for South Sudan. 

The health component is aimed at building on the existing interventions being provided in the flood affected counties and specifically complement the assistance that will be provided through the CERF mechanism to reach people with lifesaving integrated primary health care in the worst flood affected counties of Uror, Nyirol, Pibor and Duk in Jonglei State, improving access and utilization of essential primary health care services, including vaccination services, by populations affected by the floods in hard to reach and isolated locations using IRRM missions in the four selected counties that are targeted by the health cluster. The expected beneficiaries of the IRRM missions are 51,901 individuals (23,874 male and 28,027 female), which includes 23,355 children 6 months-15 years (11,911 girls and 11,444 boys) ) to be vaccinated against measles 2,076 pregnant women to benefit from antenatal care (ANC) services and tetanus diphtheria vaccination and 26,470 individuals (men and women, girls and boys) to be reached with outpatient curative consultations. 
The child protection (CP) component is aimed at building on the existing interventions being provided in the flood affected counties to reach people with lifesaving integrated CP in emergencies in the worst flood affected counties of Pibor, Pochella and Uror in Jonglei State. The project aims to strengthen case management services including identification, registration, family tracing and reunification, reintegration services (economic, social and income generation) for recently released children associated with armed forces and groups, provision of focused psychosocial services to children and families with critical psychosocial needs and provision of critical life saving CP supplies for extremely vulnerable children and their families living in hard to reach a
