Financial update The Centre came out of 2015 relatively with only a minor overspending and is able to sustain activities at almost the same level in 2016, while in 2017 we need more funding to maintain the current level. Finnish Red Cross stopped funding the Centre while new ones started. We have very little funding for communication now. There is still a need to diversify the funding base and to crack the code in accessing the much needed support. Funding is scarce in MHPSS – that also affects the work of the Centre.

Plans and budget for 2016 Advise and guide National Societies Support National Societies in developing their capacity to provide community-based psychosocial support Access external research and make it accessible to National Societies Cooperate with other humanitarian organisations dealing with psychosocial support (e.g. IASC, WHO, Save the Children) in order to exchange materials and experience, and to avoid duplication; Develop, translate and share models, tools and case studies that reflect best practice in community-based psychosocial support Roster: Develop and maintain a database of external consultancy expertise, to be deployed for assessment and training with National Societies.

Plans and budget 2016 PSS in Emergencies Support National Society needs and requests Desk support and field support, when possible Train key staff on PSSiE concept SGBV Volunteer PSS preparedness – Caring for volunteers project roll out to new National Societies Focus on migration crisis (unfunded) Support international operations, needs and requests Further roll out the PSSiE training curriculum PSS delegate competences framework Guidance on how to acquire relevant skills level/academic level Support PNS in strengthening/refreshing PSS rosters Support in the field; programming, start-up, bridging Delegate screening and interviews Increased operational capacity Close collaboration with IFRC Secretariat

PS Academy – Capacity Building Further develop PS Academy to support the competency and skills building of staff and delegates,– shared in a training calendar. Focus on M+E roll out and SGBV Strengthen links from PS Academy to academic trainings Offers basic and advanced PSS trainings. Offers trainings based on PS Centre tool-box; fx PSSiE, Lay counselling, Children’s resilience etc, M&E.. Makes it possible to offer more trainings for individuals from NS. Increased focus on mentoring Will still provide trainings in regions/NS – based on requests and relevance.

Psychological First Aid - PFA The Red Cross has worked with PFA for more than 25 years and it’s an activity that is very much in line with our humanitarian principle. Would like to generally strengthen our focus on PFA – as this is an area where many NS express a need – we see PFA as a set of generic skills and an approach that is in line with the principles of the Red Cross. Need to package emergency PFA like Look, Listen, Link with e.g. support to people in crisis, people living with NCD’s and people with mental health problems. Like first aid we would take the approach that each and every household should be able to provide some kind of PFA and that it requires generic skills that all could learn and benefit from. Priority to upgrade the PFA section of the CBHFA+ toolkit. Develop a training set-up that can be offered. Explore adaptation and packaging of existing PFA field guidelines to a RC/RC context. (Unfunded)

Knowledge Management More and more knowledge and learning is generated in the field. Increasing need to be able to capture this knowledge, systematically. Focus on low intensity interventions and how they fit the RC context (unfunded) Focus on MHPSS consequences of armed conflict and violence with ICRC and other stakeholders (partly unfunded) Research network Close contact with NS/IFRC focal points Surveys (unfunded) Evaluations Field presence – ‘finger on the pulse’ Use this knowledge to further improve PSS interventions globally. Use this knowledge to support NS even better.

Communication Update our key tool: The training kit on Psychosocial communitybased interventions. (Unfunded) Maintain website and newsletter Translate, lay-out and disseminate new tools (M+E, Caring for volunteers, SGBV (unfunded)

Advocacy Continue to advocate for the inclusion and mainstreaming of MHPSS in the Movement. Advocate for more funding for mental health Anti-stigma advocacy Continuation of the work on Psychological consequences of armed conflict, following the 32nd International Conference, in collaboration with Swedish, Danish and other interested RC and ICRC (unfunded) Work closer with ICRC Co-chairing and collaboration with Inter-Agency Standing Committee on MHPSS (unfunded 2017)

Resource mobilization RC /RC - National Societies Foundations   Institutional donors - Strengthen relationship with existing partners. - Use opportunities to bring back former partners like Swedish Red Cross - Broaden NS funding base – think new. Approach Spanish speaking NS’s Aim for multi-year partnerships. And for joint projects in equal partnerships - Aim for un-earmarked or semi –earmarked funding. - Link up to IFRC zones and local operations. - Staff on Loan. - Large foundations with a technical link, fx Sexual & Gender-Based Violence, Children in Conflict, PSS in Armed Conflict. - Resubmission of improved applications. - Possible link up with NS and local foundations. Strategic partnerships. Private foundations fundraiser. - Mainly European Commission. - Use existing network to partner up, rather than coordinating ourselves (which takes a lot of resources). - Research projects under the Health - Knowledge Management. - Increased advocacy with institutional donors.
