CA-3-D000700001 2026-03-08T06:34:11 June 2014 - The humanitarian situation in Syria continues to deteriorate as a result of the civil war in the country. The United Nations estimates that more than 160,000 people have been killed, with hundreds of thousands more wounded, due to the violence. Within Syria, some 9.3 million people are in need of humanitarian assistance, 6.5 million of whom are internally displaced. In addition, over 2.7 million Syrian refugees are registered and living in host countries in the region. Women and children are particularly vulnerable to the impact of the conflict and host countries are increasingly overstretched by the influx of affected people needing assistance. With DFATD's support, this project is providing basic relief items and meeting the health care needs of 40,000 displaced persons and local conflict-affected people in Syria. Project activities include: (1) provide bedding, clothing, and hygiene kits to up to 40,000 conflict-affected people; (2) provide basic health care services to up to 14,412 conflict-affected people; and (3) provide specific relief items for 4,100 children under the age of two.
