Strengthening the infrastructure of support systems and the resilience of vulnerable people in Baghdad

Period:

01.09.2021 - 30.04.2024

Partner:

Jiyan Foundation for Human Rights

Funding by:

Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development

What it is about:

The project activities aim to support people in their reintegration. Not only a lack of vocational, but also social and medical services, makes it difficult for many returnees to regain their footing and return to a daily routine upon arrival. Our project proposal aims to help returnees, IDPs as well as host communities in this process, providing them with psychological and medical support to create the appropriate conditions.

Examples of actions:

A fully functional Jiyan Foundation centre has been established in Baghdad

Capacity building for external health workers

Local health workers in Jiyan and external health workers received various trainings during the project cycle

Awareness raising sessions

Psychological treatment

Provision of social services

Provision of medical services and referral to external specialists
