Project profile — Syria – Health Support I – 2022 à 2024

February 2022 - The ongoing crisis in Syria continues to be a driver of displacement and humanitarian needs throughout the country. Over eleven years into the conflict, an estimated 14 million people remain in need of urgent humanitarian assistance in side of Syria. Years of active conflict and displacement have worsened protection risks and increased vulnerability for millions. Humanitarian access to those most in need remains a significant challenge. With GAC’s support, this project provides comprehensive health (including sexual and reproductive health) and protection services to over 198,000 persons. Project activities include: (1) providing primary and secondary health care services, including sexual and reproductive health, to women, men, girls and boys; (2) providing integrated mental health and psychosocial case management services; (3) providing gender-responsive psychosocial support services to affected populations, including survivors of gender-based violence and vulnerable populations; and (4) providing nutrition interventions.

The expected outcomes for this project include: (1) increased availability of primary, secondary and tertiary life-saving healthcare services for women, men, girls and boys; (2) improved awareness of SRHR for women, girls and community members; (3) improved daily functioning for vulnerable population receiving mental health and psychosocial services; and (4) increased availability of nutrition interventions for vulnerable men, women, boys and girls. The expected ultimate outcome is lives saved, suffering alleviated and human dignity maintained in countries experiencing humanitarian crises or acute food insecurity.
