Description:
March 2023 - An estimated 15.8 million people are in need of humanitarian assistance and protection across Sudan as a result of armed conflict, political instability, economic decline, food insecurity and malnutrition, among other factors. Up to 3.7 million people are internally displaced within the country. Instability around Sudan’s borders has also led to more than 900,000 people seeking refuge in Sudan, including from the Central African Republic, Chad, Eritrea, Ethiopia and South Sudan.
With GAC’s support, CARE Canada is providing emergency water, sanitation, hygiene, protection and health assistance for up to 181,967 conflict-affected people in Sudan’s East and South Darfur states. Project activities include: (1) providing comprehensive primary healthcare—including sexual and reproductive health services—to refugees, internally displaced persons (IDPs) and host communities; (2) supporting water supply and sanitation infrastructure in IDP and refugee camps; and (3) providing training and awareness raising on gender-based violence (GBV) prevention and response to service providers and affected communities.
Organization:
Global Affairs Canada
Expected Results:
The expected outcomes for this project include: (1) increased access to safe drinking water, and safe sanitation and hygiene practices; (2) increased access to comprehensive primary and sexual and reproductive health services; and (3) increased access to GBV prevention and response services for conflict-affected populations.
The expected ultimate outcome is lives saved, suffering alleviated and human dignity maintained in countries experiencing humanitarian crises or acute food insecurity.
