Protecting the Needs and Rights of Women Experiencing Humanitarian Crises
How does the needs vs rights debate apply to women in humanitarian crises? Islamic Relief calls for more aid to cover women’s basic needs.
Following our initial emergency response, our teams are now in the second phase of our response to the Türkiye-Syria disaster, which is focused on rebuilding the lives of those affected and helping them heal.
We have been building secure and permanent homes that are earthquake-resistant for displaced Syrian families. We are also working to strengthen struggling healthcare facilities for refugee families.
The Türkiye-Syria earthquake has affected around 30 million people in Türkiye and 10.9 million in Syria. Over 51,000 people tragically lost their lives and many more sustained life-changing injuries.
In the wake of the crisis, our Islamic Relief responded rapidly to these local emergencies, using your generous donations to help those most in need.
During and in the aftermath of the crisis, we distributed vital medical care, food, clean water, shelter and more to thousands of people in need.
