The second phase of the Refugee Education Council (REC) will convene a group of 8-12 refugee and displaced youth affected by forced displacement from different parts of the world with a demonstrated history of advocacy work in gender-responsive education within their communities. The Council will provide strategic advice on solutions and approaches to the education for refugee, displaced and host community children and youth to key senior Global Affairs Canada officials, including Canada’s Minister of International Development; participate in key global education fora; and build cross-sectoral collaborations with refugee and displaced women and youth networks and civil society partners.

This project builds on the first phase of the REC (P-009877) which was launched in February 2021, and ended on December 31, 2023.

This bilateral development assistance project aims to contribute to the interruption of wild polio and vaccine-derived polio throughout Pakistan. It seeks to address gender barriers to immunization to ensure all girls and boys receive the polio vaccine. Pakistan is one of the last 2 remaining polio endemic countries in the world (Afghanistan is the other), where the wild poliomyelitis (polio) virus continues to threaten the health and well-being of girls and boys. This project aims to continue the expansion of immunization in rural, remote, and high-risk areas in Pakistan and enhances transmission detection. The project also aims to improve health and nutrition services and outcomes for women and children.

This project builds on Canada’s long-standing commitments and efforts to eradicate polio. It aims to support and advance polio eradication efforts in Pakistan between 2023 to 2024 and 2025 to 2026.

Project activities include: (1) strengthening the capacity of the polio program to immunize all girls and boys in rural and remote areas in Pakistan; (2) deploying special vaccination strategies for mobile and refugee populations in difficult to access locations; (3) engaging with communities on integrated health services. This includes including maternal and child health, nutrition, water, sanitation, hygiene, and essential immunization; and (4) maintaining polio surveillance and detection systems by testing sanitation points and strengthening community-based surveillance networks.

The project is implemented by the World Health Organization (WHO) and the United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF).

The Special Climate Change Fund, one of the world’s first multilateral climate adaptation finance instruments, was created at the 2001 Conference of the Parties (COP) to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) to help vulnerable nations in addressing these negative impacts of climate change.

The SCCF is managed by the GEF and operates in parallel with the Least Developed Countries Fund (LDCF). Both funds have a mandate to serve the Paris Agreement.
