Description:
March 2022 - An estimated 14.3 million people are in need of humanitarian assistance and protection across Sudan as a result of armed conflict, food insecurity, malnutrition, economic decline and disease. An estimated 3 million people are internally displaced within the country. Instability around Sudan’s borders has also led to more than 1.1 million people seeking refuge in Sudan, including asylum seekers from Central African Republic, Chad, Eritrea, Ethiopia, South Sudan and Syria.
With GAC’s support, Development and Peace and its partners are providing protection assistance to up to 12,500 Ethiopian women, men and children in the Tunaydbah Refugee Settlement in eastern Sudan. Project activities include: (1) providing psychological support and referrals; (2) providing cash for at-risk refugees and survivors of sexual and gender-based violence; and (3) protection-related initiatives focused on prevention, such as conducting awareness raising campaigns and providing energy kits comprised of fuel-efficient cooking stoves and portable solar lights.
Organization:
Global Affairs Canada
Expected Results:
The expected outcomes for this project include: (1) increased use of safe, dignified and inclusive gender-sensitive protection services by Ethiopian girls, boys, women and men refugees in the Tunaydbah Refugee Settlement; and (2) increased use of multi-sector gender-responsive services by Ethiopian girls, boys, women, and men survivors of violence, including gender-based violence, and other at-risk groups in the Tunaydbah Refugee Settlement.
The expected ultimate outcome is lives saved, suffering alleviated and human dignity maintained in the targeted regions.
