EDUCATION IN CRISIS: SUPPORTING THE FUTURE OF SYRIAN CHILDREN

Without the benefit of education, the very future of northwest Syria is in danger as the next generation of Syrians face worse prospects than their parents or grandparents before them. Not only will economic growth be restricted, but without an education the next generation will struggle to find ways of escaping the cycle of poverty and aid dependence. With the support of aid organisations like PIN, teachers in Syria are attempting to stop, and even reverse, the downward trajectory of children’s futures.

REBUILDING FROM THE RUBBLE: PIN CREATES JOBS FOR RECONSTRUCTION IN POST-EARTHQUAKE SYRIA

Two months have passed since the earthquake, and while emergency needs remain high, PIN is implementing a cash-for-work programme to facilitate the first step towards reconstruction and recovery. With funding from USAID’s Bureau for Humanitarian Assistance (BHA) and Stichting Vluchteling (Netherlands Refugee Foundation), this project employs out-of-work residents in earthquake-affected communities to begin clearing rubble and debris. In quake-stricken areas in northwest Syria, PIN is creating job opportunities while simultaneously providing the tools and equipment needed for the first phase of reconstruction.
