Multi-sectorial Humanitarian Responses for the Conflict Affected communities in South-East Region (MHR-CASER) ltpgtAcross the SE, the persistent conflict is exacerbated by frequent air strikes, artillery shelling of villages, arson attacks and increased incidents of arbitrary arrests and detention have put civilians at risk and forced more people into displacement. Access restrictions and tight scrutiny of aid organizations become major challenges for humanitarian actors in reaching internally displaced persons (IDPs) and crisis-affected communities. ltbrgtThe proposed project aims to reduce vulnerability improve health and protection outcomes provide non-food items (NFIs) and strengthen education services for crisis-affected communities in SE region. The targeted townships under this project are Palaw, Thayetchaung and Yebyu townhips in Tanintharyi Region. Under this project, CPI and its long-standing partners, Yoma Social and Development Association (YSDA) and Mon National Health Committee (MNHC), will deliver health, protection and education services as well as NFIs distribution services to 3,136 IDP households, aiming to reach a total of 15,271 IDPs (3,483 Men, 3,561 Women, 3,778 Boys, 4,449 Girls) residing in 3 townships under Tanintharyi Region. The project services will also reach to a total of 2,092 persons with disabilities (PWD) (477 Men, 487 Women, 518 Men, 610 Girls). The project will focus on the first level priority clusters outlined in the Prioritization Matrix for Tanintharyi Region and will provide primary health care (PHC) services, sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR) services, rehabilitation services and provision of assistive devices for PWDs, protection training and awareness raising services, livelihood services, educational support services, MHPSS services and emergency referral services. The project services will also include the distribution of hygiene and dignity kits, NFI kits and education kits for students and teachers. ltbrgtCPI will lead overall management, provide financial oversight and quality improvement measures to local partners and our partners will implement field activities and deliver humanitarian assistance to communities, ensuring critical assistance is accessible to the vulnerable populations, including women, children, persons with disabilities (PWD), elderly, LGBTQI+ and other marginalized groups. CPI’s partners are locally based, experienced and trusted implementing partners (IPs) and they are best positioned to deliver much-needed assistance for the hardest-to-reach communities, especially in times like these where access become a major challenge. CPI will strengthen capacity of IPs throughout the project to deliver quality services, engage in multisectoral coordination mechanisms and respond to risks to enhance communities’ resilience to future shocks.ltbrgtThe proposed project will deliver services in a community-based, integrated care model with effective referrals to appropriate facilities. The project places affected populations at the center of the intervention to promote meaningful access, with special attention to inclusion and participation of women, PWD, and other vulnerable groups. Community-based platforms for engagement, education, awareness raising, and feedback will be strengthened throughout the project. For responsive, evidence-based programming, assessments, including beneficiaries satisfaction surveys, and focus group discussions (FGD), will be conducted throughout the project to better understand the specific needs of different groups and inform adaptations to project implementation.ltbrgtThe project is fully aligned with Myanmar Humanitarian Response Plan (HRP) 2023, and has been designed in consultation with affected communities, implementing partners, and other key actors, to address gaps in coverage and avoid duplication of the services delivered. CPI will guide its partners to improve mainstreaming of gender, disability inclusion, protection, and accountability to affected populations across all project activities.
