Increased Access to Safe Water Services for Conflict-Affected People in Ariha and Idleb Districts This project will continue support to the Al Mastoumeh water station and will provide the Ariha and Idleb sub-district populations with potable water. 

Big Heart has successfully delivered vital support to Al Mastoumeh water station since December 2015, initially providing access to potable water for upwards of 95,000 people in Ariha and Idleb sub-districts. To date, this support has been delivered through an earlier, successful partnerships with GOAL/OFDA, Save the Children and under our current OCHA HPF WASH/Education project, TUR-16/3559/SA 2016/WASH-E/NGO/2746 (following a change of location from eastern Aleppo city to Idleb governorate). During this period Big Heart has developed excellent working relationships with the Idleb Water Directorate in addition to a highly nuanced technical understanding of the Al Mastoumeh water system. Under this project, continued funding will allow sustained access to water for a catchment population of approximately 69,518 people. This includes approximately 9,060 Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs), though it is expected that the number of IDPs is likely to have further increased given recent displacements from Homs and Hama governorates into the Al Mastoumeh catchment area.
Supporting socio-economic recovery to micro and small scale enterprises in northeast Syria ACTED aims to restore and create livelihood opportunities for conflict-affected Syrians through the support to the micro, small- and medium-sized enterprises (MSME). In doing so, this intervention will support the rehabilitation and restoration of disrupted livelihoods, contribute to the restoration of affordable and sustainable local economies able to provide meaningful income generating opportunities, and contribute to the promotion of early recovery in northeast Syria. This will be achieved through supporting 200 damaged, defunct or start-up, micro-, small- and medium-sized businesses through business training and small grants to enable them to start or resume operation.
Leishmaniasis control campaign The project supports Leishmaniasis prevention measures, aiming to reduce or interrupt disease transmission by targeting the sandfly vector, and protecting humans from bites. Leishmaniasis remains the largest communicable disease in Syria. The ongoing conflict, mass displacement of population and breakdown of health and municipal services have fuelled the epidemic of the disease. With the recent discovery of a localised epidemic of visceral Leishmaniasis (the fatal form of the disease) in Idleb, it is vital a large scale prevention campaign is conducted in this area to help protect the population from the sandfly vector before the upcoming transmission season. The program will do this through the following activities:

	Indoor Residual Spraying (IRS)
	Training of staff
	Sensitization of people (Information, Education, and Communication)

(IRS) is the application of insecticide to the inside of dwellings, on walls and other surfaces that serve as a resting place for sandflies carrying the Leishmania protozoa. IRS kills sandflies when they come in contact with treated surfaces, preventing disease transmission. IRS is an equal opportunity activity, i.e. the benefits of the program are available to all regardless of age or gender. For IRS to be effective, the following conditions must apply:

	Majority of vectors (i.e. the sandfly) must feed and rest indoors
	Vectors are susceptible to the insecticide in use
	Houses have “sprayable” surfaces  
	A high proportion of the houses in target areas are sprayed (more than 80 percent).

The timing of the campaign is very relevant to the local transmission pattern of leishmaniasis, i.e. the customary breeding season and peak activity season of the sandfly which occur from March to October with a peak noted in September. Thus the suitability of the intervention and appropriateness to the transmission cycle will contribute to the control and reduction of Cutaneous and Visceral Leishmaniasis.
It is anticipated that any spraying campaign would start on or around 10th June 2017. A period of time would be required for recruitment and training prior to this date, therefore the program start date would be fixed as close to date of award as possible to ensure personnel are thoroughly prepared by the time spraying is due to begin. The M+E component of the program means that the program would be complete on 31 October 2017.
Supporting Primary Health Care Programming In Idleb governorate and Western countryside Aleppo The project will support primary health care programming in Idleb governorate  and the Western countryside of Aleppo through providing running costs for seven operational primary health care facilities. SRD will continue providing health care services for both IDP and Host Communities, and will ensure delivering of services in line with the essential health package guidance, SRD will also support the capacity building and afford the needed technical support to provide quality medical services.
Improving Access to Primary Health Care Services for Conflict-affected Syrians in Aleppo and Idleb Support from the Humanitarian Fund will allow IMC to provide essential health activities for conflict-affected Syrians, including one Primary Health Care Unit (PHC) with attached Mobile Medical Unit (MMU). The PHC and attached MMUs will cover areas in southern Aleppo countryside - specifically Shamico, Bobnia, Kosnia, Zerba, Barkoum, Khan Touman Caves, Job Kas and Abo Shailam, in addition to several camps around Shamico, Kafer Jom, Shikh Rhaila where more than 40,000 people reside. The catchment population includes local population and IDPs from Eastern Aleppo City and other areas in Southern Aleppo Countryside.

Emergency support to smallholder sheep and goat producers with Enterotoxaemia vaccination Sheep production is an important source of livelihood in rural Syria. However, the production system faces seasonal threats of Enterotoxaemia outbreak which claims the lives of thousands of young animals every year. Before 2011, Enterotoxaemia of sheep and goats in Syria was controlled through annual government subsidized large scale vaccination campaigns. These vaccination campaigns have all but ceased and the availability of Enterotoxaemia vaccines in Syria is very difficult, with majority of sheep owners not having any access to vaccinations for their animals. Recent reports indicate that many farmers in Syria have lost close to 70% of their herds due to animal diseases.

In its commitment to building resilience in smallholder farming communities in Syria, FAO is proposing to partner with a Syrian based Implementing Partners (IP) to lead a vaccination campaign against Enterotoxaemia disease.  The project will reach about 1500 smallholder herders who collectively own more than 120,000 heads of sheep and goats. The project aims to reduce animal losses due to Enterotoxemia (commonly known overeating disease) in lamp and kids, which is caused by Clostridium perfringens type CampDIn Syria, the disease occurs seasonally March-May. The disease is of significant economic and sanitary importance in sheep and goat farming areas globally and in Syria as it the most important causes of sudden death in kids and lamb at the early age.

The project will vaccinate the sheep and goat flocks of 3000 smallholder farmer in Aleppo amp Idleb and improve their production capacity through training on key areas of animal health management, immunization, and hygiene. Vaccination of all animals and adequate nutrition are the two primary prophylactic measures against Enterotoxemia, and they are the core of this intervention. FAO through its IPs will capacitate and equip 10 local veterinary technicians who will conduct the immunization. These will also be provided with training materials on sheep management, animal nutrition, and healthcare. These vets will, in turn, organize training of trainers (ToT) sessions to capacitate 75 local focal points to raise community awareness on animal health management.  Ultimately, the project will protect an important livelihood asset of small herders and increase the market availability of sheep and goat products, which meet the minimum sanitary standards.
Emergency health support to IDPs and host community population through provision of quality primary and secondary health services in Sub District Daret Azza, District Jabla Samaan Governorate Aleppo, Syria SKT proposes an emergency project to improve access to quality life-saving primary and secondary health care services with preventive and curative interventions in Al-Huda hospital, Governorate Aleppo. This project will respond to the priority needs of the 30,316 most vulnerable people affected by conflict in the existing Al-Huda hospital. The hospital consists of 3 surgical operation rooms, 5 equipped ICU beds, 16 inpatient bed capacity, an out-patient department, 2 equipped ambulances and trauma-related Psycho Socio Support (PSS) clinic. In February 2017, Al-Huda hospital has targeted through airstrikes which caused damages in infrastructure and equipment which forced to reduce the capacity of hospital services. To date, access to health care services has been hampered due to insecurity, destruction of health care facilities, lack of skilled manpower, and inconsistent supply of drugs and medical equipment. Disruption of routine health care services like vaccinations resulted in disease outbreaks. SKT proposed health sector response will include support to the ongoing health interventions of SKT in Al-Huda Hospital. The main interventions will include provision of medical equipment covering equipment gap through provision of surgical medical supplies, provision of essential primary health care through pediatric IMCI outpatient to reduce morbidity of winter related diseases, provision of specialized secondary health care and trauma management services and provision of community outreach public awareness focusing on child and women health care practices The project will also focus on referral of critical cases to the nearby health facilities mainly in Bab Alhawa hospital in Idlib. SKT will be self-implementing the proposed project as the organization is currently running the hospital. SKT will be the lead applicant and will be responsible for robust monitoring and evaluation of the funds and the project delivery. The organization will be also be responsible for overall project management which includes grants management as well as submitting interim and final narrative and financial reports to OCHA
Student winter clothing kit As winter is approaching soon after the start of the 2017/2018 academic year, the educational sector in Eastern Ghouta is suffering from a lack in all the basic needs and resources necessary to carry out the educational process effectively. Most of the girls and boys come to school in old and worn out clothes, which reflect their harsh living conditions. These clothes do not protect them against cold weather and make them more susceptible to catching a cold, flu and respiratory infections.

Not having a source of income and the high prices of clothing, because of the siege imposed on Eastern Ghouta, are some of the main obstacles that prevent parents from buying clothes for their young girls and boys.

Additionally, the security situation and the ongoing violence has forced many families, most of them women and children, to become internally displaced in the various towns of Eastern Ghouta. These families fled their homes carrying only a small portion of their belongings and some families fled their homes with the clothes they had on only, leaving what is left to be buried under the rubble. They then reached overpopulated towns, where schools are under tremendous pressure, and they are currently working hard to accommodate the flow of displaced children fleeing from frontline areas.

This project will respond to the winter clothing needs for students both boys and girls, especially the internally displaced ones, as well as the students with special needs in some towns of Eastern Ghouta: (Ein Tarma, Zamalka, Hazeh)


These towns were selected according to several criteria:
-	Ein Tarma is a war-torn town at the, frontlines of the conflict between the two sides.
-	Zmalka is a town adjacent to Ein Tarma and it received many displaced people from the neighborhoods of Jobar and Ein Tarma.
-	Hazeh is a town adjacent to Ein Tarma and it received many displaced people from the neighborhoods of Jobar and Ein Tarma.

The project aims to cover the schools in these towns as they have become a last resort to a large number of IDPs and particularly children at the age of school. A good quality and full winter clothing kit will be provided to 2650 elementary and middle school boys and girls, especially the displaced ones, in addition to raising their morale and giving them psychosocial support.

After analyzing the needs according to sex and age disaggregated data (SADD), the winter clothing kit will include:

Vulnerable Households in Airha, Ehsem, Muhambal and Jisr Ash-Shugur are Protected from Winter Harsh Conditions HNO has concluded that fuel scarcity is expected during the coming winter, with a high likelihood that fuel prices will further increase. There is a need for increased fuel provision, storage, contingency stock and winterization fuel for IDPs shelters/medical centers for cooking, heating and other essential services. According to the Syria HNO 2017,With fuel prices increasing by 39 per cent in June alone, household incomes will likely be placed under further pressure. The Syria Shelter and NFI assessment: Northwest Syria (Household surveys), July 2017 states that 16% of surveyed households reported unaffordability of fuel while 2 percent reporting unavailability of heating fuel. Fuel has been reported to be a priority need by all age and gender groups with the Elderly (60+ y) citing it as the second priority need. 
In line with the above needs, HRP, HPF Allocation Paper and SPHERE standards, Nasaem will provide timely heating fuel for the coming winter. Nasaem will provide diesel in urban town. However, in the rural areas and in line with SPHERE’s guidance note “Identify and prioritize environmentally and economically sustainable sources of fuel or domestic energy”, Nasaem will not provide firewood in rural areas as it is severely influencing the environment as people are resorting to excessive logging to provide this. Rather, Nasaem will provide olive-pit fuel which is known in the area, and has increasingly been used by the target communities during the crisis. This is a biofuel, locally produced and ecofriendly. In addition, Nasaem will distribute/replenish 300 heaters with accessories to those households that have no heaters or have theirs worn.
Under the proposed project Nasaem will distribute heating materials for 1835 already identified vulnerable households (80% IDPs, 20% host community) in Ariha, Ehsem, Muhambal and Jisr Ash-Shugur sub-districts of Idleb. Out of these, 500 households in urban areas will receive 375 liters of diesel distributed over three batches over winter season. The other 1335 households living in rural areas will receive 900 kg of olive pits distributed over three batches over winter. To achieve the goal of this project, Nasaem will distribute/replenish heating stoves for 300 households out these 1835 households receiving heating materials.
Emergency seeds distribution to increase availability of and access to food for 2000 vulnerable households living in Aleppo and  Idleb  goveronate This project aims at improving the food security and nutrition situation of vulnerable households targeted by the intervention while protecting and gradually restoring their agriculture-based livelihoods. the project will strengthen food production capacities of a total of vulnerable households in the Governorates of Aleppo, and Idleb. Priority will be given to women-headed households.

the proposed interventions will also encourage the targeted households to plant legumes with their cereals to improve soil health and fertility, besides diversifying their income sources. This practice will minimize the erosion of soil and compensate for the reduced use of fertilizers due to their high prices and/or unavailability.

This intervention will strengthen the production of vegetable crops widely used in the diet of Syrian people to address food insecurity while protecting and gradually restoring agricultural-based livelihoods and strengthening the capacity of people to manage and recover from shocks. By integrating immediate relief with livelihood-recovery activities, the proposed action will contribute to the strengthening of resilience of the targeted crisis affected people and their host communities.
The project will be implemented in cooperation between Al-Wafa association and the Sons of War Organization .
Sons of War Organization will target Daret Ezza and Atareb sub districts in Aleppo govern-ate by distribution 1000 winter vegetable homestead kits.
Where Al-Wafa association will target Has, Kafr-Nobol ,Hazareen and Sfohen in Kafr-Nobol Sub-Districts in Idleb govern-ate by distribution 1000 winter vegetable homestead kits.

the project will provide some workshops for training whose who are interested in receiving these kits so that they will be able to use them correctly and efficiently inside their houses. 2000 households will be targeted by this project some of them are already agricultural workers, while some will be trained to start this kind of job for the first time.

In the absence of robust support for livelihoods and agriculture, Syria’s dependence on humanitarian food assistance will continue to worsen in 2017 and beyond. Access to adequate dietary diversity continues to be a key need, especially for persons
with specialized needs including children, pregnant/lactating women, and the elderly.
Self-reliance and resilience inside Syria can only be improved through better supporting the core components of food value chains alongside continued humanitarian assistance. Key areas of value-chain support include provision of productive inputs, creation of income-generating opportunities, and the strengthening of community services and markets.
SSAFE Training The aim of Safe Secured Approach Field Environment (SSAFE) training is to provide essential security and safety awareness to all UN and associated personnel operating in the southern part of Turkey bordering Syria where the risk level is high due to ongoing clashes between PKK and Government of Turkey and incoming rockets, Mortars and artillery shell landing in the region. In order to mitigate and prevent the existing security threats and reduction of the above mentioned risks. The SSAFE training is designed to provide wide range of country and culturally specific security and safety guidance, utilizing a modular framework of key topics that are selected based upon mission requirements.

Saving Lives Together, as per “A Framework for Improving Security Arrangements among IGOs, NGOs and the UN in the Field” and endorsed document by the IASC Principals in August 2011, collaborating and consulting on the development and delivery of contextually based security training - Observe and share training materials and requirements with focus on preparedness and specific contextual analysis. In IASC document, clearly says that “1) Convening broad-based forums for field security collaboration and information sharing, including NGO/IO engagement with the UN Security Management Team Whether the forum is UN or INGO, the critical requirement is to create the space for a robust dialogue on security collaboration and plug into DSS training unit and NGOs doing training “ 2) Collaborating and Consulting on the development and delivery of contextually based Security Training” such as SSAFE training etc.
Food security and livelihood support to the most vulnerable internally displaced people (IDPs) and host communities in South Idlep and North Hama This project is designed as a complementary intervention to PAH’s on-going FSL programmes located in South Idleb and North Hama which started. PAH intends to expand intervention in target geographic locations from emergency to early recovery, in line with the FSL cluster objectives for sustainable FSL interventions in the area. The planned intervention will take into consideration the needs, priorities and capacities of both the female and male population in order to improve the lives of the affected population, in addition to mainstreaming protection principles throughout the project. PAH will provide equitable access for men/women to winter micro garden kits, vouchers for agricultural inputs, trainings and mobile veterinary services in the targeted locations. Additionally, a women and child friendly training center will be established by PAH, allowing women and young girls to attend much needed trainings and providing them with child care services. This center will also serve as a meeting point for IDP and host communities to facilitate social cohesion.				
PAH will support 2000 HHs (12000 individuals) in total from five (5) different sub districts through different modalities according to their needs and capacities. The main activities will be  cash voucher distribution for agricultural and livestock inputs, , capacity building trainings and providing small grants for income generating activities. Locations targeted are Heish, Kafr Nobel, Madiq Castle, Tamanaa, Khan Shaykun. PAH will hire female staff in project, distribution and monitoring teams to consult with women and girls in designing and implementing the activities in the proposed action. Female will be provided for the women-only capacity building trainings.
Câm Dairy -  a Nigerian dairy company that is working to aggregate raw milk collected from dairying communities and processing it into packaged pasteurized fresh milk, which it delivers to consumers. It is driven by a vision to lead Nigeria to reach self-sufficiency in dairy production to meet the nutritional needs of its people; to provide women with sustainable incomes; and to lift smallholder households out of poverty. Develop an inventory management system that tracks raw materials and finished products from farm to customer. Inventory management is a key risk area, and a digitized system will help reduce risks. Through the inventory system, Cam Dairy will be able to track and visualize key indicators such as demand, inbound supply, production, outbound supply, and sales. Enhanced tracking of supplies and sales will help reduce food wastage and increase demand for pastoralists’ milk.
