Our projects
From sustainable (and profitable) waste management to public spaces in villages and camps fostering social cohesion and integration — our projects touch the very lives of Syrian refugees and the communities that host them. As always, projects are demand-driven and rooted in local societies through collaboration with local governments, experts and citizens, so the work can continue into the future. Find out more about our current projects below.
