Emergency Lifesaving support to increase  access to Shelter and NFIs for vulnerable conflict and natural disasters affected IDPs and Returnees in  Twic East, Bor South and Duk  Counties, Jonglei State, South Sudan The intervention is targeting conflict, displacement and flood affected most vulnerable IDPs and Returnees in Twic East (Kongor, Lith, Pakeer, Nyuak, Ajoung payams), Duk (Ageer, Padiet, Payuel, Dongchack payams) and Bor South (Jalle) and intends to mitigate the need of shelter and lifesaving NFIS through cash for life saving shelters construction and cash vouchers to ensure that the households' basic needs are met. The project plans to reach 250HH(75M,175F) in Bor South,235 HHS (70M, 165 F) in Duk and 333 HHS (100M,233 F) in Twic East, total 818HHS (573Female headed, 245 Male headed), corresponding to 4500 individuals from IDPs and Returnees communities. Among the targeted HH, 350HHS will benefit from cash for shelter and 400HHS will benefit from cash-vouchers for NFI. The beneficiaries’ selection will be conducted by the Community Cash Committees (CDCs). In each payam of intervention there will be 1 Cash Committees comprising of women (60% of the CDCs members will be females), youth representative and local leaders whom will be formed and trained on beneficiaries’ identification, selection and registration, cash disbursement methods, their roles and responsibilities as well as LWF Code of Conduct. In addition, each payams will have Complaint Response Committees CRC (50% of the CRCs members will be females) which will be trained on Complaint Response Mechanism, beneficiaries’ rights as well as Code of Conduct. Protection of women, girls, children, disabled and older persons will be mainstreamed throughout the project implementation. In case of beneficiaries with special needs, or with disabilities, or child headed households unable to collect the cash/ vouchers, the CDCs together with LWF staff will handle such scenarios on a case by case through the creation of welfare committees or the appointment of an alternate to collect the money. CRCs will be actively engaged during the beneficiary selection, the distribution and the PDM exercise to ensure issues and possible grievances are addressed on real time. The project will address the shelter construction/ repair with locally available material through conditional cash distribution LWF staff will strengthen the capacities of the CDCs in order for them to be responsible, under the supervision of LWF staff, of the continuous monitoring of the shelters building, giving advices and supporting during the erection. A first tranche of 50USD will be given once the selected beneficiary will have cleaned and organized the building site, a second installment of 50USD will be disbursed at the moment of roofing the tukuls. The beneficiaries are expected to play an active role in the construction through the labor and the collection of local available material to complement the structure. Local Authorities such as payam’s administrations and chiefs will be involved at early stage so that the identification of the construction site is approved and managed by the local clans. Vouchers will be given for the fulfillment of individuals’ life-saving NFI needs such as mosquito nets, kitchen utensils, Jerry cans etc. Identified during beneficiaries selection, through local procurement at local markets from pre-selected vendors. The market assessment will update existing data on local markets and will serve to evaluate the capacity of vendors in responding to the demand and to verify price stability. LWF will sensitize vendors on the cash programming and related SOPs and will sign agreement with the selected ones for them to abide to the CoC and the reimbursement modalities. 

With the present action LWF  closely  work together with National NGOS in the project area, so that National NGOS will grasp cash programming skills and LWF will benefit with coordination to maximize the project outcome.
