The project aims to strengthen the capacity of 6 MAs in and SARO to deliver high-quality SRH services in crises.

Budget:  770,000 USD

Donor: IPPF Solutions 2

Timeline: 2 Years ( March 2020–Dec 2022 )

Project implementation areas: Burkina Faso, Burundi, CAR, Maldives, Sudan, and Yemen

Partners: UNFPA and national humanitarian actors

Other interesting information: The project is designed to be led by MAs, as part of the Member Association-centric approach, with support from the regional offices and the Global Humanitarian Team.

Innovative approaches:

• Operational research will be useful for measuring interventions’ impact and will highlight key challenges, suggest areas of improvement and good practices.
• Inclusion of LGBTQUIA and organisation's of persons with Disabilities in preparedness and planning.

Lessons learned: Language barrier is a serious risk to project implementation if not properly addressed at design stage. Translation and interpretation costs should be significantly budgeted for when engaging English and French-speaking MAs as key project implementers.
