Iraq's Ministry of Migration and Displacement, in collaboration with the Korea International Cooperation Agency (KOICA) and the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), has launched a USD 10 million project to aid internally displaced people in rebuilding their lives and reintegration into their communities. The initiative, implemented in four Iraqi provinces – Anbar, Kirkuk, Nineveh, and Salah al-Din – aims to provide sustainable resettlement and support for affected communities.
The project focuses on various aspects, including housing, community infrastructure, livelihoods, mental health and psychosocial support, and peacebuilding activities. Over five years, more than 18,000 people will benefit, with special attention given to women-headed households, people with disabilities, and other vulnerable groups.
Projects will include renovated homes, restored access to essential facilities and services, climate-smart agricultural assistance, livelihood training, and support for community-based mental health initiatives.
KOICA Iraq Country Director Yeon Je Ho emphasized the importance of the project in delivering tangible improvements for displaced families and communities. UNDP Iraq Resident Representative Titon Mitra expressed optimism about the initiative turning its commitment into practical results for those affected by displacement in Iraq.
