Description:
This project is Canada’s contribution to the Multi-Partner Trust Fund for Reconciliation, Stabilization, Resilience (RSRTF) in South Sudan. The RSRTF ensures conflict drivers are addressed through highly contextualized, conflict-sensitive, integrated, multi-year resilience and stabilization programming in volatile areas of the country. The RSRTF aims to foster and incentivize consortium programming across the Humanitarian-Development-Peace nexus to deliver area-based programing rooted in locally-led analysis and program design. Peace and Stabilization Operations Program funding supports new area-based programming between 2021 and 2023, including support to existing area-based programs in Unity, Warrap, Western Bahr El Ghazal, Jonglei states and the Greater Pibor Administrative Area. Canada’s contribution supports a small grant window to provide flexible funding for short-term projects to respond to emerging windows of opportunities that promote peacebuilding, stabilization and resilience efforts that may fall outside the planned area-based programs.

Expected Results:
The expected outcomes for this project include: (1) communities have effective mechanisms in place that meaningfully include women and youth to resolve conflicts peacefully; (2) justice sector actors deliver justice more effectively, even in areas with previously limited or no judicial infrastructure; (3) empowered communities, including women, youth and disadvantaged groups, increased their ability to meaningfully participate in local and broader political, peace and security processes; and (4) strengthened community resilience through increased economic opportunities and sustainable livelihoods.
All projects supported by the RSRTF contribute to decreasing violence at the community and local level experienced by individuals, particularly children and women.

Program Purpose:
The Peace and Stabilization Operations Program (PSOPs) is an integral component of the Government of Canada’s toolbox to prevent and respond to conflicts and crises abroad. It supports rapid, effective, whole-of-government coordinated responses to a wide range of challenges and serves as a valuable instrument for supporting stability in conflict-affected regions. PSOPs provides visible and concrete assistance in response to conflicts and crises abroad through targeted programming, the deployment of Canadian police officers (in partnership with Public Safety Canada and the RCMP) and civilian personnel, and direct support to the UN and multilateral peace operations, conflict prevention, mediation, and peacebuilding efforts.
