World Vision Iraq began as a response to the humanitarian emergency caused by the onset of conflict in 2014. Since then, we have been assisting and working with internally displaced persons, host communities, and Syrian refugees, helping children survive and then thrive as part of healthy communities.
Over the past year, we have reached 59,168 people and 45,241 children with a variety of interventions enabling child protection, livelihoods, climate resilience, improved Water, Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH) access, mental health, and education. We have also integrated cross-cutting themes into our programming, such as women's empowerment, social inclusion, and social cohesion. We remain committed to the principle of accountability for the most affected populations as we seek to support them in improving their lives.
World Vision Iraq is now transitioning through the Humanitarian, Development and Peace Nexus (HDPN) with the focus on resilience and recovery by addressing the root causes of fragility and vulnerability, enabling us even better to keep children and their families at the heart of our interventions. This is achieved through continuous context monitoring and employing agile programme design and management. The focus is increasingly on resilience - of children, families, and whole communities - in the face of climate change, and promoting disaster reduction, adaptation, protection, education, and peacebuilding.
World Vision Iraq seeks to expand its operations in order to assist as many Iraqis as possible as they seek to recover sustainable wellbeing in the wake of conflict and in the face of new challenges. To do this, we are actively seeking new operational contexts beyond our existing projects in Kurdistan Region of Iraq, Ninewa, Kirkuk, and Salah al-Din, adding new projects in Anbar for the first time in 2023.
