WE ADVOCATE FOR RESOURCES AND POLICY CHANGES NEEDED TO PROTECT AND SUPPORT SURVIVORS OF SEXUAL VIOLENCE AND REBUILD COMMUNITIES IN CRISIS. 0 0 871777 188769 PROGRAM FOCUS AREASFOR DECADES, THE YAZIDI COMMUNITY IN SINJAR, IRAQ HAS SUFFERED FROM RESOURCE DEPRIVATION, INADEQUATE SERVICE PROVISION, FORCED LAND REMOVALS, AND UNDERREPRESENTATION IN THE REGION'S LOCAL GOVERNANCE AND SECURITY FORCES. THIS TARGETED MARGINALIZATION BY THE IRAQI STATE LEFT THEM VULNERABLE TO ISIS' ATTACKS IN 2014, WHICH DESTROYED 80% OF SINJAR'S PUBLIC AND PRIVATE INFRASTRUCTURE. SINCE 2019, THE ORGANIZATION HAS WORKED TO SUSTAINABLY REBUILD SINJAR BY LAYING THE FOUNDATIONS FOR THE COMMUNITY TO NOT ONLY SURVIVE BUT THRIVE. IN LINE WITH A GRASSROOTS APPROACH TO SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT, THE ORGANIZATION WORKS WITH THE LOCAL COMMUNITY AND A VARIETY OF IMPLEMENTING PARTNERS TO DESIGN, SUPPORT, AND IMPLEMENT PROJECTS THAT PROMOTE THE RESTORATION AND IMPROVEMENT OF EDUCATION, HEALTHCARE, LIVELIHOODS, WASH(WATER, SANITATION, AND HYGIENE), WOMEN'S EMPOWERMENT, AND CULTURAL PRESERVATION. ALL OF THE ORGANIZATION'S PROGRAMS ARE COMMUNITY-DRIVEN AND SURVIVOR-CENTRIC, AIMING TO FOSTER LONG-TERM PEACEBUILDING IN THE REGION AND REDUCE THE COMMUNITY'S RELIANCE ON FOREIGN AID.1) HEALTH - THE HEALTHCARE SECTOR IN SINJAR WAS IN A BELEAGUERED STATE PRIOR TO ISIS' INVASION, WITH FEW SPECIALIZED DOCTORS AND SERVICES AVAILABLE TO RESIDENTS. SINCE THE DESTRUCTION IN 2014, HOSPITALS HAVE HAD TO RELY HEAVILY ON SUPPORT FROM INTERNATIONAL ORGANIZATIONS TO PROVIDE BASIC CARE. THE ORGANIZATION IS WORKING TO IMPROVE THE REGION'S HEALTHCARE SECTOR BY REBUILDING HOSPITALS AND PRIMARY HEALTH CENTERS, PROVIDING THEM WITH CRITICAL SUPPLIES, FURNITURE, AND MEDICAL EQUIPMENT, AND TRAINING SPECIALIZED STAFF TO PROVIDE SURVIVOR-CENTERED, TRAUMA-INFORMED CARE. IMPROVING THE REGION'S HEALTHCARE REDUCES THE COMMUNITY'S LONG-TERM VULNERABILITY.2) EDUCATION - ACCESS TO QUALITY EDUCATION IS CRITICAL TO EMPOWERING MARGINALIZED COMMUNITIES TO BUILD BETTER FUTURES. SINJAR'S EDUCATION SECTOR HAS LONG SUFFERED NEGLECT, WITH DILAPIDATED SCHOOL BUILDINGS AND A SEVERE LACK OF TEACHERS RESULTING IN STUDENTS RECEIVING INFREQUENT, INADEQUATE EDUCATION IN UNSAFE ENVIRONMENTS. THE ORGANIZATION IS IMPROVING EDUCATION IN SINJAR BY REBUILDING AND FURNISHING PRIMARY, MIDDLE, AND SECONDARY SCHOOLS, PROVIDING STUDENTS WITH SCHOOL SUPPLIES, INVESTING IN EARLY CHILDHOOD AND POST-SECONDARY EDUCATION, AND CONSTRUCTING SCHOOL LIBRARIES THROUGHOUT THE REGION. ENSURING ACCESS TO QUALITY EDUCATION FACILITATES THE HEALING PROCESS FOR CHILDREN WHO HAVE SURVIVED CONFLICT AND PROTRACTED DISPLACEMENT.3) LIVELIHOODS- SINJAR HAS HISTORICALLY BEEN A FARMING REGION - 75% OF ITS PRE-2014 INCOME WAS BASED IN AGRICULTURE. ISIS ATTEMPTED TO DESTROY THE COMMUNITY'S LIVELIHOODS BY BURNING DOWN FARMS, POLLUTING BOREHOLES, AND STEALING AND VANDALIZING FARMING EQUIPMENT, ALL OF WHICH THREATEN THE REGION'S FOOD SECURITY. ROADS AND ELECTRICAL NETWORKS WERE ALSO DESTROYED DURING YEARS OF FIGHTING TO LIBERATE THE REGION. SMALL BUSINESS OWNERS IN SINJAR HAVE STRUGGLED GREATLY TO RESUME THEIR LIVELIHOODS IN THE AFTERMATH OF SUCH EXTENSIVE DESTRUCTION. THE ORGANIZATION IS RESTORING THE REGION'S COMMERCE, TRANSPORTATION, AND TRADE BY HOLISTICALLY REBUILDING FARMLANDS, SUPPORTING SMALL BUSINESS OWNERS, CONSTRUCTING NEW ROADS AND PUBLIC WORKS, AND RESTORING ELECTRICAL NETWORKS.4) WASH- ACCESS TO CLEAN WATER IS A BASIC HUMAN RIGHT, YET IT IS A RARE RESOURCE IN A WATER SCARCE REGION LIKE SINJAR. RETURNEES TO SINJAR MUST GRAPPLE WITH DESTROYED AND POLLUTED WATER, SANITATION, AND HYGIENE (WASH) INFRASTRUCTURE. FEW CAN AFFORD TO PURCHASE BOTTLED WATER. MANY FACE SEVERE HEALTH ISSUES RESULTING FROM CONSUMING CONTAMINATED WATER. TO COUNTER THIS, THE ORGANIZATION IS REBUILDING THE WASH INFRASTRUCTURE IN VILLAGES, SCHOOLS, CLINICS, AND FARMS THROUGHOUT SINJAR. RECONSTRUCTION WORK IS COMPLEMENTED BY WATER MANAGEMENT TRAININGS AND HYGIENE AWARENESS SESSIONS AIMED AT EMPOWERING THE COMMUNITY TO INDEPENDENTLY MANAGE THEIR OWN WATER SOURCES AND LEAD HEALTHIER LIVES.5) CULTURAL PRESERVATION - FOR CENTURIES, YAZIDIS HAVE BEEN TARGETED FOR THEIR UNIQUE RELIGIOUS BELIEFS. ISIS' DESTRUCTION OF YAZIDI SITES OF WORSHIP WAS THE LATEST IN A LONG LINE OF GENOCIDAL CAMPAIGNS AGAINST THE COMMUNITY. PROVIDING YAZIDIS WITH SAFE SPACES TO WORSHIP AND SITES OF REMEMBRANCE IS CRITICAL TO THE COMMUNITY'S HEALING AND SOCIAL COHESION. THE ORGANIZATION RESTORES YAZIDI TEMPLES WITH INPUT FROM CLERGY, ACTIVISTS, AND LOCAL FAMILIES CHARGED WITH GUARDIANSHIP OF THE SHRINES. THE ORGANIZATION CONSTRUCTS CEMETERIES AND MEMORIALS TO HONOR VICTIMS OF THE GENOCIDE AND PRESERVE YAZIDI HISTORY-INCLUDING THE YAZIDI GENOCIDE MEMORIAL, BUILT IN 2023 AS A MONUMENT TO THOSE WHO SUFFERED UNDER ISIS AND A PLACE OF REMEMBRANCE AND HEALING FOR FAMILIES STILL SEARCHING FOR CLOSURE.6) WOMEN'S EMPOWERMENT - WOMEN IN SINJAR HAVE EXPERIENCED IMMENSE TRAUMA AND SUFFERING YET ARE OFTEN NEGLECTED IN THE REGION'S REDEVELOPMENT INITIATIVES. MANY LONG FOR OPPORTUNITIES TO GAIN ECONOMIC INDEPENDENCE, PROVIDE FOR THEIR FAMILIES, AND BECOME ACTIVE LEADERS IN THEIR COMMUNITIES. THE ORGANIZATION DESIGNS SURVIVOR- CENTRIC WOMEN'S EMPOWERMENT PROGRAMS AIMED AT ADDRESSING THE NEEDS OF WOMEN AND GIRLS IN SINJAR BY PROVIDING THEM WITH SMALL BUSINESS TRAININGS AND GRANTS, REHABILITATING THEIR FARMLANDS, REBUILDING THEIR HOMES, AND EMPOWERING THEM TO BECOME ADVOCATES FOR CHANGE WITHIN THEIR COMMUNITIES. MUCH OF THIS WORK IS NOW HOUSED AT THE WOMEN'S CENTER IN SOLAGH VILLAGE, THE ORGANIZATION'S FLAGSHIP SPACE FOR WOMEN-LED RECOVERY, EMPOWERMENT, AND LEADERSHIP. 844206 29582 ADVOCACYTHE ORGANIZATION ADVOCATES- AT THE LOCAL, NATIONAL, AND INTERNATIONAL LEVELS - FOR RESOURCES AND POLICY CHANGES NEEDED TO PROTECT AND SUPPORT SURVIVORS OF SEXUAL VIOLENCE AND REBUILD COMMUNITIES IN CRISIS.

DESIGNED TO ADDRESS THE UNIQUE AND INTERSECTIONAL CHALLENGES OF WOMEN AND GIRLS IN THE REGION, INCLUDING SURVIVORS OF ISIS CAPTIVITY, THE CENTER PROVIDES A SAFE, ACCESSIBLE, AND INCLUSIVE SPACE WHERE THEY CAN RECOVER FROM TRAUMA, ACCESS VITAL SERVICES, AND LEAD TRANSFORMATIVE CHANGE WITHIN THEIR COMMUNITIES. GUIDED BY THE ORGANIZATION'S SURVIVOR-CENTRIC AND COMMUNITY-DRIVEN APPROACH, THE CENTER WILL OFFER A COMPREHENSIVE ARRAY OF SERVICES, INCLUDING LIVELIHOOD SUPPORT, EDUCATION, HEALTHCARE, MENTAL HEALTH AND PSYCHOSOCIAL SUPPORT (MHPSS), LEGAL AID, SHELTER, AND CAPACITY BUILDING IN LEADERSHIP AND ADVOCACY. OVER THE NEXT THREE YEARS, THE ORGANIZATION WILL STRENGTHEN THE CENTER'S CAPACITY, EXPAND ITS PROGRAMMING, AND ENSURE IT IS ACCESSIBLE TO ALL WOMEN AND GIRLS IN SINJAR. 2060346 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 10 0 1 5 1 0 1 IZ 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 7 6 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 CA MA NJ NY NC UT WA X ALISON ANDERSON 2026702545 529 BRIAR PARK LANE HIXSON TN 37343 NADIA MURAD PRESIDENT 30.00 X X 248000 0 0 KERRY PROPPER SECRETARY AND TREASURER 5.00 X X 0 0 0 ELIZABETH BOHART DIRECTOR 2.00 X 0 0 0 AMBASSADOR PHILIPPE ETIENNE DIRECTOR 2.00 X 0 0 0 KASH GHASHGHAI DIRECTOR 2.00 X 0 0 0 AMANDA NGUYEN DIRECTOR 2.00 X 0 0 0 GREGOIRE THERY DIRECTOR 2.00 X 0 0 0 ABID SHAMDEEN CO-FOUNDER & STRATEGIC ADVISOR 40.00 X 156382 0 13005 BRANDON LEIGH JACOBSEN EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR 40.00 X 149959 0 6283 KIRBY NEUNER DIR.
