grant Background

About the Funding Agency

The United Nations Human Settlements Programme, UN-Habitat, is the United Nations agency agency working for a better urban future. It is mandated by the UN General Assembly to promote socially and environmentally sustainable towns and cities with the goal of providing adequate shelter for all.

UN-Habitat, the United Nations programme for human settlements, is at the helm of that change, assuming a natural leadership and catalytic role in urban matters. Mandated by the UN General Assembly in 1978 to address the issues of urban growth, it is a knowledgeable institution on urban development processes, and understands the aspirations of cities and their residents.

Locations

Syria

Syria’s infrastructure has been extensively damaged by prolonged conflict, affecting transport networks, energy systems, water supply, and housing. Reconstruction needs are substantial, with priority given to restoring basic services and critical public utilities. Financing capacity is severely constrained by economic sanctions, fiscal limitations, and limited foreign investment. Political instability and fragmented governance structures continue to hinder large-scale infrastructure recovery and long-term planning.
