The violence in Syria has forced thousands of families to flee the war-torn cities of Hama, Homs and Idlib to seek refuge and assistance in Aleppo and Damascus.

The influx of the new arrivals, coupled with a large Iraqi refugee population displaced in previous years by war, has increased the cost of living dramatically.

It is estimated the price of food and other basic commodities has doubled and the unemployment rate has spiked to over 30%.

As a result, the thousands of Syrians are confronting a worsening humanitarian crisis in the weeks and months to come if they do not receive immediate assistance.

Objective of this grant is to provide food and hygiene support to IDPs living in Aleppo and Damascus.

As the civil war in Syria continues, thousands of civilians have fled the conflict to seek safety across the border in Turkey.

Iranian officials have the fear that the death toll will increase. Four towns and 230 villages have been damaged badly.

As the humanitarian crisis in Syria extends into its 18th month, the conflict has shifted to the primary urban centers in the country, namely Aleppo and Damascus.

This has precipitated large scale internal migration within the city limits, with most displaced people seeking shelter with host families in districts less affected by the fighting.

In response to the evolving conditions in country, CHF International intends to design a humanitarian assistance program aimed at assisting conflict-affected households in both cities.

The goal is to conduct a survey of displaced families in the target area, utilizing survey instruments developed by CHF International’s humanitarian assistance unit.

The contractor will also be responsible for procuring supplies required for the host-family assistance kits, identifying priority beneficiaries, and delivering said kits to the 125 targeted households.

Somalia is a country with a dire case of literacy: more than 72% of adults (over the age of 15) are illiterate. Fighting as result of lawlessness and other calamities render the region behind in education and there is a little access to other social services. Objectives of this grant are: to increase access to basic free education for children in four IDP camps; to support establishment and strengthening of education systems, structures and policies in affected areas; to support 40 teachers in four schools for a period of one year through payment of incentives to enhance and sustain the schools; to achieve mobilization of community towards education and establishment of academic centers; and to improve school management in four communities by supporting and training Community Education Committees in targeted schools.

Recovering from the effects of their country’s recent famine.

Somalis continue to confront severe drought conditions in rural areas that have decimated entire villages’ livelihoods and caused mass migration in and around population centers, leading to the formation of large communities of displaced individuals.

As the number of individuals living in informal camps around Mogadishu increases, so does the need for services.

IBC seeks to provide the requested services through the provision of education materials and training, food, psychosocial counselling and additional support in sanitation initiatives to displaced people living in Korsan Camp in Mogadishu.

Objective of this project is to provide food and support in education, health, psychosocial initiatives to address the needs of displaced people affected by the Somali famine.

Goal: War-affected Syrians live in safe and dignified conditions.
Strategic objective 1: War-affected Syrian children in Kilis town feel an improved sense of wellbeing.
To address the widely reported need for social outlets and physical activity for children, CRS and IBC will establish 4 Child Friendly Spaces (CFS). Staff and volunteers will provide a range of age and culturally appropriate activities including art, theatre and dance, sports, reading and free play.

IBC field staff, with CRS technical support, will engage in community outreach to the war-affected Syrian population to identify four sites to establish CFS. Sites will be identified and evaluated through a joint community/IBC assessment.
The exact design of CFS will be finalized according to what is available and what is needed to bring the site up to CFS standards (as per Save the Children’s CFS guidelines) for space, health/safety and staffing.

Strategic objective 2: Extremely vulnerable war-affected Syrians in Kilis town have improved ability to cope with winter weather.
From the information gathered to date, it is apparent that the precise living situation of families varies significantly as well as the ability for Syrians in Kilis to access basic inputs to protect them from the coming cold weather.
These Extremely Vulnerable (EV) households will be given a voucher to spend on winterization inputs. For planning purposes, the amount for this voucher is set at USD 150, arrived at by estimating the local cost for 3 sets of children’s clothes, three warm blankets and one large mattress/carpet.
In addition to reconfirming the market value of winterization inputs to be made available via vouchers, the market assessment will also allow CRS and IBC to confirm the local market’s ability to absorb the increased demand and the exact design of the voucher activities.

The overall objective of the project is to contribute to the prevention of natural disasters generated by earthquakes in Black Sea basin by developing a joint monitoring and intervention concept.
All the countries involved in the project have their own studies, strategies, prevention and intervention systems in case of earthquakes, but until now there has not been an integrated approach so far in the Black Sea basin. Given the cross-border character of seismic activity results, it is necessary to have a cross-border approach on prevention, monitoring and intervention in case of earthquakes.

The specific objectives of the project are as follows:

To assess the disaster potential, with accent on the seismic risk degree and the earthquakes effects in the intervention area.

To develop an integrated seismic monitoring and intervention concept.

To increase the capacity of local institutions’ emergency intervention units for joint response activities in case of disasters.
