April 2024 – An estimated 300 million people worldwide need humanitarian assistance and protection in part due to ongoing conflicts, natural disasters and disease outbreaks. In response to humanitarian needs, Global Affairs Canada’s (GAC) humanitarian assistance provides predictable, multi-year, and multi-country support to longstanding partners in protracted humanitarian contexts globally. With GAC’s support, International Medical Corps, provides assistance to address the urgent needs of 451,405 beneficiaries in Ethiopia, Lebanon, Syria, Ukraine, and Yemen. This project focuses on providing the essential health needs of crisis-affected people. Project activities include: (1) providing quality primary health care services tailored to meet the specific needs of women, girls, men, and boys, including sexual and reproductive health (SRH) assistance; (2) providing emergency mental health and psychosocial support; (3) rehabilitating safe water and sanitation facilities in targeted health care centers serving crisis affected people; and (4) providing gender-based violence prevention and response services, including safe spaces for women and girls, case management and psychosocial support for gender-bases violence (GBV) survivors.
