Description 

This project aims to contribute to better development outcomes for the people of South Sudan by building capacity amongst donors, implementing partners, and national non-governmental organizations to improve the conflict-sensitivity of their international assistance. Also, this project supports women and girls by providing analysis on the gendered impacts of conflict and aid, thereby enabling donors and partner organizations to better design and implement gender-sensitive programming. Project activities include: (1) producing relevant research on conflict sensitivity; (2) providing institutional support to organizations through the provision of high-quality advice, coaching, and technical support; and (3) conducting outreach activities to ensure broader coordination on conflict sensitive international assistance.

Expected results 

The expected outcomes for this project include: (1) key actors change their attitudes, behaviours, relationships and policies, in ways that mitigate the risk of deepening drivers of violent conflict and increase the likelihood of positive contributions towards peace; and (2) enhanced integration of the gender dynamics of conflict sensitivity into international assistance programming by donors and implementing partners.
