CA-3-D004165001 2026-07-16T06:32:50 December 2016 - The humanitarian situation in Syria continues to deteriorate as a result of the civil war in the country. An estimated 13.5 million people continue to be in need of humanitarian assistance, 6.1 million of which are displaced internally by violence and 975,080 located in besieged communities according to the United Nations. Repeated and deliberate attacks on humanitarian and medical workers continue to plague the conflict, adding to the vulnerability of millions of people, particularly women and children, who are affected by the conflict and struggle for access to the most basic services. With GAC’s support, this project aims to provide up to 10,000 conflict affected persons with protection and livelihood opportunities. Project activities include: (1) non-formal education as well as outreach activities; (2) local leader and private sector engagement; (3) market driven vocational skills training; (4) business skills training; (5) provision of small business grants; (6) provision of paid internships and apprenticeships to women and youth; and (7) implementation of community groups and projects.
