CA-3-P012673001 2026-09-10T06:32:49 February 2023 – The humanitarian situation in Turkey deteriorated significantly following powerful earthquakes that struck south-east Turkey on February 6 and February 20. The earthquakes and aftershocks resulted in widespread damages and high casualties in both countries. The UN estimates that at least 9.1 million in Turkey have been affected by the earthquake, with the majority anticipated to need some form of humanitarian assistance in the coming months. With GAC’s support, the International Organization for Migration (IOM) provides assistance to address growing humanitarian needs in Turkey. IOM is expanding ongoing operations, including a nationwide refugee response programme already active in affected areas, to meet the basic needs of earthquake-affected persons. This project supports IOM’s emergency response scale-up in providing emergency shelter assistance, non-food items and cash, and emergency mental health and psychosocial support. Project activities include: (1) providing multi-purpose cash, vouchers and non-food items assistance to earthquake-affected women, men, girls and boys; (2) providing emergency shelter assistance to earthquake-affected women, men, girls and boys; and (3) providing mental health and psychosocial support to earthquake-affected women, men, girls and boys.
