INTRODUCTION The 3RP - Country Plan for The Arab Republic of Egypt aims to strengthen protection and support for Syrian refugees and host communities. To address the needs of refugees and the most vulnerable from impacted communities, targeted assistance will be focused in the areas of food, health, education, livelihood and basic needs, along with interventions to enhance the outreach to the community and strengthen service delivery systems in the most impacted governorates (e.g. Giza, Greater Cairo, Alexandria and Qalyubia). Across sectors, the resilience component of the plan focuses on bringing together humanitarian and resilience-based responses to achieve common objectives. As the aim of the 3RP plan is to target impacted local communities as well as Syrian refugees, an area-based approach to assistance will also cover non-Syrian refugees and asylum seekers of other nationality groups, including Iraqis, who reside in targeted locations in these governorates.

This area-based approach is necessary as UNHCR is aware that Syrian refugees, although dispersed, are concentrated in certain residential settlements within the Egyptian governorates. These locations represent much higher densities of refugees in comparison to the number of local host communities residing adjacent to them. In order to provide sufficient outreach to the impacted communities, UNHCR will need a socio-spatial analysis of the hosting areas.

COUNTRY OVERVIEW CONTEXT Despite the absence of a land border with Syria, the Egyptian Government has allowed refugees into Egypt. As of 31 October 2014, 140,033 Syrian refugees have been registered with UNHCR. According to Government estimates, an equal number or more Syrians are unregistered and living in Egypt. The general situation in the country improved after the election of a new president in June 2014, which resulted in greater political stability throughout Egypt. However, the country has faced an increase in terrorist threats and incidents. In light of this, visa and security requirements for Syrians are required, and whilst Egyptian Government policy does allow family reunification, visa restrictions potentially impact on the ability of Syrians to seek access to territory and asylum.

Irregular departures by foreign nationals, including asylum-seekers and refugees by sea, which breach the country’s immigration law, continue to increase. While more than 1,000 Syrian nationals were arrested from January to mid-September 2014 and faced detention, most of those arrested were released and some were given the option to travel to third countries. Although Egyptian government policy does not allow any forcible return to Syria, UNHCR Although UNHCR has registered 23 million. It is also estimated that, continues its dialogue with the 140,033 Syrian refugees, according as of October 2014, the Ministry Government of Egypt on how to deal to the Ministries of Finance and of Higher Education has spent with those Syrians who have illegally Foreign Affairs, an estimated USD USD 57.5 million on the education entered Egypt. 150 million was spent on subsidies of 9,535 undergraduates and 1,377 for food, energy and social services postgraduate students. Increases in the costs of living for approximately 300,000 refugees in summer 2014, mainly due to during the 2013/2014 fiscal year.

There is also a need to expand child- friendly spaces that enable children to interact with host communities in a protective environment, where cases needing immediate intervention can be identified.

Furthermore, based on data received from the Ministry of Health, there are significant numbers of Syrians who use public primary health Unmet Needs

The conclusion of the analysis incorporated the following proposed interventions and their action plans, which would respond to identified gaps, constraints and opportunities of the sector:

} Specialized and demand-driven Business Development Services (BDS), which would improve access to markets and address the lacking technical support;

} Promotion and support to start- up businesses within the food services sector to support the high demand and growing market for new businesses as less capital is required for investments in food services than in other fields;

} Home-based enterprises for women supported to increase their participation within the sector. Focus group discussions with Syrian refugees revealed that the majority of Syrian women prefer to work from home to avoid harassment at work, on the street and during long commutes;

COUNTRY OVERVIEW STRATEGIC OVERVIEW & PLAN The response in Egypt will continue to address the rights and needs of Syrian refugees in Egypt, in the three main urban centres where the majority are located. Advocacy with the Government towards a flexible implementation of the existing visa regime for women, children and elderly Syrian nationals will continue to be a priority, as well as access to residency, and the prevention of refoulement, keeping in mind the national context.

Programmes benefitting both refugee and local communities will be a main focus, in order to promote peaceful coexistence while also expanding existing protection spaces. Further support will be provided to the host Government with an emphasis on the Ministries of Education and Health. In the health sector, the 3RP envisages a transition aimed at transferring refugee health care to public health facilities, to gradually phase out the private sector as health care providers.

The 3RP will also look to enhance community based protection mechanisms in its response to reach beneficiaries more effectively.

Dialogue with the Government will remain key, followed by a focus on the media, partner NGOs, civil society and the donor community to ensure a coordinated humanitarian response to the presence and protection needs of Syrians.

13 CURRENT SITUATION In 2014, the general situation in the country improved significantly after June, which resulted in increased political stability throughout Egypt. However, the visa and security requirements for Syrians resulted in limited access to territory and asylum, particularly for women, children and elderly Syrians. The Government issues visas in some cases on a family reunion basis. Syrians in need of international protection who arrive in Egypt without a visa or with forged documents continue to face either prolonged detention or risk of deportation to third countries.

Furthermore, child-friendly spaces will continue to be opened and contribute to a broader outreach and coverage of service provision. In 2015-2016 child protection aims to enhance closer linkages to the education sector as the most sustainable approach to ensure children’s well-being.

To empower communities and further strengthen effective community participation, 3RP partners will continue to support refugee community centres and their activities, with a particular focus on the provision of legal aid, counselling, psychosocial services (PSS) and emergency shelter. In addition, new community-based child and youth networks will be established to identify and more effectively respond to protection needs. Support to community-based safe spaces will also contribute to the continued provision of psychosocial services to the most vulnerable refugees.

Furthermore, the Syrian refugee population will also benefit from multi-year planning and prioritization for the strategic use of resettlement as a protection tool. In 2015 alone, some 2,300 Syrian individuals are expected to be submitted for resettlement.

management and referral pathways). Capacity building programmes to integrate SGBV services, covering the public hospitals of all 27 governorates of Egypt in consecutive phases started in October 2014. Supporting the implementation of the SGBV national strategy will be a priority and will be done in cooperation with the National Council for Women and other relevant partners.

In September 2013, a needs assessment for capacity building in public schools was jointly conducted between the MoE, UNHCR and UNICEF in Alexandria, Cairo, Damietta, Giza and Qalyubia. The needs assessment focussed not only on capacity building measures for public schools but also on what specific measures would be needed to enable them to absorb more Syrian children. The assessment concluded that public schools required extensive support in the construction of additional classrooms, provision of educational supplies, additional teachers, teacher training, as well as further support in creating a welcoming, safe and inclusive environment for all children, including Syrian girls and boys.

In order to support public schools UNHCR education sector partner and girls with specific needs to enrol with a high concentration of Catholic Relief Services (CRS) in specialized private schools.

EDUCATION currently requires secondary school certificates for admission to colleges and universities, which is often not possible for refugees who fled Syria to provide. Despite these restrictions, the Government does accept Syrian diplomas regardless of the year it was provided, which is not the case for Egyptians, as they are only allowed to enrol with diplomas registered in the same year.

UNHCR is currently advocating with the Government to simplify the procedures of entrance for Syrian refugee’s boys and girls into tertiary education and will continue to do so into 2015. This unrestricted access will, in turn, enhance self-reliance and improve socio-economic security for refugees as they will have the benefits of advanced and technical education while also gaining skills necessary for future employment opportunities.

The existing experience and expertise in cash assistance as social assistance should also be used to reinforce the capacity of the government to develop accurate, effective and non-discriminatory social safety net systems.Through a multi-faceted response, refugees and poor members of impacted communities will be targeted by cash–for-work and public works programmes, with the aim to create short - to medium - term jobs for unskilled workers. This will not only inject cash into the local economy but will serve to improve the basic infrastructures and delivery of basic social services to the most impacted neighbourhoods and communities. Cash-for-work programmes will also focus on social protection, primarily established as an employment opportunity platform for women, focusing on effective community outreach, health and hygiene programmes. Further wage employment opportunities will be optimized through connecting potential workers with formal or
