Displacement has strained local economies, leading to widespread unemployment, and reduced economic activity. Many IDPs have lost their livelihoods and struggle to meet basic needs, exacerbating poverty and food insecurity. The influx of displaced populations into urban areas has overwhelmed infrastructure and services, placing additional pressure on already strained resources. As a result, vulnerable individuals and communities face heightened risks of exploitation and limited access to essential services. Addressing these challenges requires urgent interventions to revitalise local economies, support livelihood recovery, and strengthen social protection mechanisms for displaced populations, ensuring their integration and resilience within urban and semi-urban settings. Collaboration among key stakeholders (duty-bearers) is crucial to mitigate the multifaceted impacts of the conflict and promote sustainable development across Sudan. Aligning with EU strategic objectives for sustainable recovery and development in Sudan is essential to ensure comprehensive and effective interventions that mitigate the impacts of the conflict and pave the way for a future for vulnerable groups."}, {"bbox": [97, 711, 1074, 769], "category": "Text", "text": "Identification of main stakeholders and corresponding institutional and/or organisational issues (mandates, potential roles, and capacities) to be covered by the action:"}, {"bbox": [97, 786, 1136, 1272], "category": "Text", "text": "The stakeholder analysis for this proposal encompasses a diverse range of actors crucial to the project's success. Local communities, leaders, and community-based organisations (CBOs) such as Emergency Response Rooms, women-led organisations, and groups for persons with disabilities play essential roles in providing insights into community needs and facilitating inclusive participation. The Sudanese private sector from the diaspora and the resilient local businesses and micro enterprises contribute to economic development and job creation. The diaspora support resource mobilisation. International NGOs (INGOs), local NGOs, and sub-national administration at local level are vital implementing partners responsible for basic service delivery and coordination. Additionally, engagement with Parent and Teacher Associations (PTAs), technical services of the sub-national administration (Education, Social Development, and Agriculture), smallholder farmers' associations, and UN agencies (UNICEF, FAO, IFAD, UNMAS, UNDP, UNOCHA, UNHCR, UN Women and World Health Organisation (WHO)) ensures alignment with national priorities, technical expertise, and comprehensive and inclusive support across education, agriculture, mine action, livelihoods, and humanitarian coordination, integrating a gender perspective. Collaboration with this diverse array of stakeholders enhances project effectiveness, inclusivity, and sustainability, fostering holistic development outcomes for the target communities and rights holders. In addition, the programme will ensure coordination and synergies with other EU programmes, such as the EU funded education programmes with UNICEF and Save the Children to offer comprehensive solutions to the livelihood and education crisis affecting children and young people."}, {"bbox": [100, 1328, 620, 1360], "category": "Section-header", "text": "# 3 DESCRIPTION OF THE ACTION"}, {"bbox": [116, 1393, 538, 1426], "category": "Section-header", "text": "## 3.1 Objectives and Expected Outputs"}, {"bbox": [97, 1495, 1136, 1552], "category": "Text", "text": "The Overall Objective (Impact) of this action is to strengthen the protection of human rights and improve the living conditions of vulnerable groups affected and/or displaced by the armed conflict in Sudan, in particular"}, {"bbox": [86, 1620, 296, 1646], "category": "Footnote", "text": "²¹ Anonymous testimony"}, {"bbox": [1035, 1680, 1144, 1705], "category": "Page-footer", "text": "Page 9 of 45"}]
