December 2016 – The humanitarian situation in Syria continues to deteriorate as a result of the civil war in the country. An estimated 13.5 million people continue to be in need of humanitarian assistance, 6.1 million of which are displaced internally by violence and 975,080 located in besieged communities according to the United Nations. Repeated and deliberate attacks on humanitarian and medical workers continue to plague the conflict, adding to the vulnerability of millions of people, particularly women and children, who are affected by the conflict and struggle for access to the most basic services. With GAC's support, this project aims to provide conflict-affected persons in Syria with water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH), protection, education and livelihood services. Project activities include: (1) providing safe drinking water; (2) providing support and training for community emergency response teams and delivering psychosocial services; (3) rehabilitation and support of primary schools and early learning centers; and (4) provision of cash assistance to vulnerable households.
