Strengthening resiliance by empowering women and girls in areas affected by Sudanese conflict (HER) Project

The goal of the project is to support the resilience of areas and populations affected by forced displacement due to the conflict in Sudan, and to promote social cohesion among communities. The target localities in Ethiopia and Sudan face a range of challenges, including weak social and economic systems that affect both displaced and host populations. Despite these differences, all areas share a common pressure: intense competition over scarce natural resources. This is driven by a degraded ecological environment, climate change, ongoing conflict, and large-scale displacement. These factors not only heighten the risk of conflict but also undermine efforts toward socioeconomic integration and prolong reliance on humanitarian aid. This project will ensure that women and girls, who are particularly affected by the consequences of the conflict and who are key agents of change, are central drivers to foster resilience for the benefit of affected populations and areas by providing support focusing on health and nutrition, livelihood and protection services for vulnerable communities. As a result, this is to deploy recruited staff to the duty station and to monitor the preparation phase of the project in collaboration with consortium partners and respective stakeholders.
