ZOA International (Syria)

The crisis in Syria, which has now lasted twelve years, has caused the majority of the population to flee. Cities and towns have been destroyed. To make matters worse, violent earthquakes recently hit the already fragile country. Syria is in ruins. ZOA tries to stand beside them and offer the help they desperately need in a situation where nearly everything is broken. ZOA currently works with crisis affected communities in Quneitra, Rural Damascus, Dara’a, Latakia, Aleppo and Al Hasakeh. Our activities are targeted at internally displaced persons (IDPs), host communities and returnees. ZOA always seeks to reach the most vulnerable groups, which are often women, children, elderly, female headed households, persons with disabilities and IDPs. We focus on WASH (water, sanitation and hygiene), food security & livelihoods, shelter/NFI and education.
