  In the midst of crisis and conflict internally displaced people (IDP) are particularly exposed to an increased risk of sexual and physical aggression, forced and/or early marriage, and psychological violence. Access to prevention and response services to sexual and gender based violence (SGBV) is limited in certain areas due to an absence of qualified personals and an inadequacy of shelters for survivors. These changes are threatening development advances such as the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals. Our organization strives to complement efforts made by international development partners and governments to combat climate change and its effects. However, to source funding from donor agencies has become very competitive. Hence, the need for strong, viable and winning project proposals to access the dwindling available funds from relevant donor agencies. That is where the services of the volunteers become indispensable. After the successful collaboration for this assignment, the online volunteers will be awarded certificates of appreciation, and their input shall be mentioned in relevant publications of the organization.
