RRF – 2023 - Halfa

The multi-sectoral project addressed the urgent lifesaving integrated CP, GBV and general protection (GP) of the new IDPs who fled their areas after the clashes between SAF and RSF on April 15th. The project contributed to the reduction of incidents and effects of violence, abuse and exploitation and provided life-saving assistance in the form of essential protection services, particularly addressing the special protection needs of extremely vulnerable population communities through the establishment and training of Complaint and Response Committees (CRCs) and referral mechanisms, provision of Psychosocial support services (PSS) , local capacity enhancement through awareness-raising, provision of direct support and assistance, including provision of comprehensive case management for CP, GBV survivors and people with disability, and distribution of basic personal hygiene kits (PHKs) and mobility aids , assistive devices and clothes. The project enhanced the resilience of Health Care Workers (HCWs) through conducting training on psychological first aid (PFA) which is very vital for comprehensive provision of PSS. As part of the direct support, the project provided cash assistance to access medical treatment for patients with serious medical conditions as well as support and follow up on referral of urgent cases with medical concerns to the relevant health services providers. The project was implemented using a community-based approach to ensure active engagement and participation from targeted groups as well as accountability to affected populations (AAP).
