• By mid 2022, UNHCR reported 287,965 registered refugees from 57 countries, most of which live in Greater Cairo. 37% are children. The International Organization for Migration reports on 9 million migrants. 
• Migrants and forcibly displaced persons face a range of protection threats, unstable and difficult living conditions in Egypt, that are exacerbated by the economic impacts of COVID 19 and Ukraine War. Unaffordable increases in living costs, social tensions within communities, general violence and xenophobia, inadequate finances, education, health, safety and social protection exacerbate the protection risks. 
• The most vulnerable are persons living with physical disabilities, health and mental health issues, newly arrived and others with special needs including survivors of gender based violence, members of the LGBTQIA+ community, single mothers, non Arabic speakers, unskilled, and unemployed youth and adults. 
• Migrants and forcibly displaced persons are unable to benefit from social protection schemes and have very limited access to public services. The UN and NGOs support is also limited due to shrinking resources.

Key results and insights from previous phases From 2015 to 2021, SDC (MENA-H) funded the humanitarian protection program activities of Terre des Hommes (PSTIC Provision of protection and humanitarian assistance to vulnerable migrants in Greater Cairo) through yearly contributions. Insights from the 2021 external evaluation include:

• Recommendation to integrate the activities-based approach into a broader programmatic approach linking essential protection activities to development objectives. 
• Confirmation that PSTIC project interventions were highly relevant and aligned with the needs of the migrants and forcibly displaced person, particularly the emergency response, protective housing support, mental health and accessibility to public health care services. 
• The PSTIC project overachieved all targets and intended effects in a cost-effective manner and proved to be very effective in protection marginalized refugees with a focus on women, girls and children. The different activities provided high quality services through an adaptive sensitive approach to the context changes and needs of targeted populations. 
• The community based approach and strong partnership with Ministry of Health, led to positive unintended effects of sustainability and promoted social cohesion.
