Project Period: 1 April 2018 – 31 March 2019
Budget Spent: 2,500,000.00 €
As part of this project, DDD, along with other implementing partners UOSSM, HIHFAD, and IHD, provided
healthcare services for 159,476 conflict-affected individuals in Idlib Governorate and Aleppo Governorate (with
the integration of Afrin into the Project). Through direct implementation and support provided to partners,
254,278 PHC, 71,234 SRH, and 3,276 MHPSS consultations were provided. The majority of beneficiaries were
displaced people from other areas of Syria.
The project had a specific focus on improved community engagement: An outreach team comprised of community
health workers (CHWs) was recruited, trained and mobilized to improve access to care for marginalized
populations, including women and people with disabilities or limited mobility. A focus was placed on promoting
information sharing regarding services available in supported health facilities, especially new mental health and
psychosocial services, and ensuring that protection concerns identified are addressed through timely and safe
protection referrals.
