The 4-months project at hand aims to provide emergency cash assistance to recently displaced populations from Southern Idleb by the provision of MPGs to the most vulnerable and newly displaced households who recently fled the conflict zones. The project has been designed to contribute to covering the food security needs through helping the newly displaced households coping with the displacement conditions and secure their emergency needs in a dignified way by distributing 2 rounds cash grant with a value of 120 $ per household. The grant amount was designed in accordance with the cluster recommendations for this THF allocation to cover the displaced households' basic emergency needs.

Through this project, Violet seeks to target 1,782 newly displaced households (8,910 individuals) in the areas that have received the highest IDP influx over the last few weeks and have been identified with the highest needs including such as Idleb, Saraqeb, Taftanaz, Sarmin, and Jisr Al Shoughour. The targeted locations are accessible for Violet through it's on the ground operation team
The beneficiaries will be selected in close coordination with the community representatives in the targeted areas based on the vulnerability and eligibility criteria including displacement duration criteria since the newly IDPs are the most vulnerable groups to the shocks. the project will prioritize women-headed households as well as households with children, elderly, disabilities, pregnant, and lactating women.
