GOAL: to increase access to SRH information and services for populations surviving crises and living
in post-crisis situations
increase the regional capacity
of key stakeholders
strengthen the
coordination of SRH responses in crisis situations
raise
awareness on SRH in crises at national & regional level
respond in a timely fashion to SRH needs in crisis situations

Key Challenges for SRH in Emergencies
1. Scarcity of trainers2. Updating, dissemination
and promotion of training materials
3. Lack of financial resources to implement training
4. Keeping track of former participants

What’s innovative about the SPRINT?
First regional initiative to address SRH in crises country by country=> SPRINT model
Action research: building evidence on SRH in crisis National and regional emergency relief agencies
(government + NGOs) integrate SRH into contingency planning and aid responses
Interagency collaborative approach
Bridging the gap between immediate relief and development
continuum between emergency and development

Approach and strategies adopted
Priority countries were identified based on their vulnerability to disaster and conflict and less developed disaster risk reduction (DRR) mechanisms;
Priority countries were clustered into groups depending on language (French or English) and geographical location for ease of training logistics. The clusters were then invited to one central place for the training
The Secretariat facilitated translation of training materials to French, developed job aids and disseminated the same for use by the CCTs.
Training
![Page 17: SPRINT Initiative Dr Shible SAHBANI, UNFPA, Morocco CO](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062806/56814fbb550346895dbd7479/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Approach and strategy adopted cont’
The Secretariat consulted with partners from UNHCR and UNFPA to select candidates with a view to creating a country mix with representation from NGOs, Ministries of Health, Red Cross/Crescent and UN agencies;
After the Regional workshops, SPRINT Initiative provided funds to Country Coordination Teams to implement the first in-country MISP training.
At least one SPRINT expert was sent to offer technical assistance to the country team during the initial in-country training to ensure quality control for the training

Approach and strategy adopted cont’
In case of an emergency, SPRINT Initiative provided funds and as well as technical support to enable country teams initiate RH responses at limited scales at the onset of an emergency;

Country covered in a Reg. TOT so far
In Africa
70% of the countries of the continent have been covered through SPRINT MISP
trainings, involving the critical partners in each of the country, with a total of 204 key
persons trained at regional level.
![Page 23: SPRINT Initiative Dr Shible SAHBANI, UNFPA, Morocco CO](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062806/56814fbb550346895dbd7479/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Lessons learned
The cooperation between the partner organizations (UNFPA, UNHCR, IPPF, IFRC, etc.) involved in SPRINT is a key-factor for the success in selection of quality participants for regional ToTs
The involvement of Governmental stakeholders through dedicated high-level staff of the relevant Ministries in the Country Teams is key to the buy-in of SPRINT roll-out at country level. If existing, the Disaster Management body has to be involved together with the MoH.
![Page 24: SPRINT Initiative Dr Shible SAHBANI, UNFPA, Morocco CO](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062806/56814fbb550346895dbd7479/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Lessons learned Country Coordination Teams implement their roll-
out if there is a leadership within the team, and a clear role with division of tasks. Leadership is often taken by UNFPA and a counterpart agency as co-lead .This cooperative model of leadership has to be encouraged in the development of the Country Team ToR.
Using IPPF Member Associations provides an institutional structure for operational and logistical back up for in-country implementation.
![Page 25: SPRINT Initiative Dr Shible SAHBANI, UNFPA, Morocco CO](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062806/56814fbb550346895dbd7479/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Way forward
Coordination among the different partners at country level should be formalized, to clarify both the question of leadership and the division of responsibility, to ensure improved efficiency and effectiveness.
More technical support is needed to successfully integrate SRH (through the MISP) in disaster management plans at all levels (national and sub-national)
Use SPRINT model to ensure that MISP will remain on the top of emergency response agenda as life saving intervention
