January 2021 - The ongoing crisis in Syria continues to be a driver of displacement and humanitarian needs throughout the country. Over ten years into the conflict, an estimate 13 million people remain in need of humanitarian assistance. This includes more than 2.7 Internally displaced people, many of whom live in informal and overcrowded settlements, where access to essential needs and services is inadequate. Years of active conflict and displacement have exacerbated protection risks and increased vulnerability for millions, and humanitarian access to those most in need remains a significant challenge. With GAC’s support, this project works to provide multisector, lifesaving and gender sensitive response to up to 154,710 beneficiaries. Project activities include: (1) providing primary and secondary healthcare services, including sexual and reproductive health support; (2) providing integrated mental health and psychosocial services; (3) providing water, sanitation and hygiene services, including distribution of hygiene kits; and (4) providing psychosocial support and specialised services to survivors of gender-based violence (GBV), including raising awareness on GBV prevention and child protection issues.
