I. Background on ACTED

ACTED develops and implements programs that target the most vulnerable amongst populations that have suffered from conflict, natural disaster, or socio-economic hardship. ACTED’s approach looks beyond the immediate emergency towards opportunities for longer term livelihoods reconstruction and sustainable development.

With a budget of 164 million EUR in 2014, ACTED is active in 35 countries and implements more than 450 projects a year reaching over 8 million beneficiaries with 400 international staff and 4,300 national staff.

In Unity state, ACTED has focused on the provision of livelihoods assistance to refugees in Nyeel and Pariang refugee camps.
ACTED also continues to build on its traditional areas of intervention, focusing on food security and livelihoods in Western Bahr el Ghazal and Warrap, and water, sanitation and hygiene in both states as well.

Organization: Canadian Red Cross
Country: South Sudan
Closing date: 29 Apr 2016

Terms of Reference for a Consultant to Review Children and Youth Activities implemented by the Southudan Red Cross

PURPOSE

Time Frames

27 days in May & June 2016

Primary Location:

South Sudan

Providing services for:

Africa Team, Development,
International Operations, Canadian Red Cross

Reporting to:

(Administrative issues) Monique Goyette, Program Manager, Canadian Red Cross

(Programmatic Issues) Peter Potsepp, Regional Manager, SERA

The purpose of the mission is to conduct a review of the activities implemented for children and youth, and develop recommendations and guidelines for future activities for children and youth to be implemented by the SSRC.

INTRODUCTION

1. Background

The SSRC was established by law on 9 March 2012 with the SSRC Society Act, 2012. SSRC was formally recognized by the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) on 18 June 2013, making it the 189th National Red Cross or Red Crescent Society in the world. In November 2013, the SSRC was admitted into the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Cross Societies. The SSRC’s headquarters is based in Juba and there are a total of ten (10) branches and a growing network of sub-branches. There are currently over 100 SSRC staff members across the Headquarters and branches, and approximately 4,000 volunteers across the country.

2. Mission Description

The SSRC’s psychosocial activities fall within the Department of Health. The goal of the health program is to promote healthy behaviours. The key objectives of the psychosocial support activities of the SSRC are to:

Strengthen psychosocial support in South Sudan Red Cross
Ensure that vulnerable individuals and groups affected by natural and man-made disasters have access to quality psychosocial support services
Improve the knowledge, attitudes and practice on SGBV detection, prevention and response among SSRC Staff, SSRC volunteers, community members and service providers (both health & psycho-social)
Improve access and utilization of psychosocial support services at community and health facility level.

The SSRC, through its male and female volunteers, is responding to multiple emergencies in the country including providing support to IDPs seeking protection from the ongoing civil conflict. The SSRC has prioritized work with the most vulnerable; this includes girls and boys of all backgrounds. Specifically, the SSRC, with support from the Swiss and Danish Red Cross, has established Children and Youth activity centers in three locations of the country in order to allow girls and boys to have safe spaces for protection and psychosocial activities. The Children and Youth activity centers are located in the Protection of Civilian Camp 3 (POC3) in Juba, in host communities in Bor Town and Melijo IDP camp (Nimule).

Since late 2015, humanitarian actors in South Sudan have been replacing child friendly spaces (CFS) activities with a community-based PSS approach. Whereas the CFS approach focus mainly on the PS well-being of children, the CBPSS approach recognizes that children’s well-being is influenced by the interaction with parents and caregivers, peers and others in their communities. Following the recommendations from the PS task force, the SSRC changed the approach from CFS to children and youth activities centers.

By reviewing the activities implemented for children and youth, and developing recommendations for future interventions, the SSRC will be able to improve their capacity to support girls and boys, including those who are marginalized. This work will also add to the learning of the Movement and of external humanitarian agencies about children and youth programming.

OBJECTIVES OF THE PROPOSED MISSION

1. Objectives

The objectives of the proposed mission are to conduct a comprehensive analysis of the SSRC’s interventions for children and youth, and to develop recommendations for future children and youth activities.

2. Scope of Work

These objectives will be met through the following activities:

Review of the scope of activities carried out by SSRC in Juba PoC3, Nimule and Bor;
Compare and contrast the approaches utilised by volunteers in Juba PoC 3, Bor and Melijo IDP camp;
Collect information from boys, girls, caregivers and stakeholders on the effectiveness of each approach and ideas of ways of improving the activities;
Review secondary sources of information, including UNICEF, World Vision International, and Save the Children;
Analyse the immediate impact of the activities for children and youth implemented by the SSRC

Review gender and diversity specific considerations made for activities conducted
Analyse the SSRC’s interventions for children and youth, and their strengths and weaknesses
