Handicap International - Humanity & Inclusion (HI) Libya

In Libya, Humanity & Inclusion continues to run programs under the operating name "Handicap International." 

Humanity & Inclusion has been operating in Libya since 2011, responding to the needs that emerged from the 2011 armed conflict. Since the fall of the Gaddafi regime, Libya has been wracked by violence between rival militia and the uncontrolled influx of weapons, creating a situation of ongoing insecurity. 

Large numbers of landmines, cluster munitions, and other explosive devices were used in Libya, and tons of weapons still lay scattered throughout the country, posing a grave risk to civilians.

The organization is providing basic medical assistance, including rehabilitation care, while also supporting local health and rehabilitation centers.
