CA-3-P007812001 2026-07-19T06:32:50 July 2019 – In 2019, there are an estimated 6.7 million people in need of humanitarian assistance in Iraq, 18% of the total population. More than 1.6 million persons remain internally displaced, despite the expulsion of ISIL from Iraqi territory in December 2017. Displaced people both in-camp and out-of-camp settings continue to depend on the provision of humanitarian assistance to meet their basic needs. With GAC’s support, the Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) manages the Iraq Humanitarian Fund (IHF), which allocates resources to national and international humanitarian partners to respond to the critical needs of crisis-affected populations throughout Iraq. Project activities include: (1) supporting life-saving and life-sustaining activities while filling critical funding gaps; (2) promoting needs-based assistance in accordance with humanitarian principles; (3) strengthening coordination and leadership primarily through the Humanitarian Coordinator function, and by leveraging the humanitarian cluster system; (4) improving the relevance and coherence of humanitarian response by strategically funding priorities as identified under the Humanitarian Response Plan; and (5) expanding the delivery of assistance in hard-to-reach areas by partnering with national and international partners.
