Description

HI PRESENTATION

Handicap International (HI) started its activities in Iraq in 1991. Since the offensives of the group Islamic State (ISG) in 2014, Iraq has been facing an internal armed conflict and a double humanitarian crisis, with high numbers of Iraqi internally-displaced people (IDPs) and Syrian refugees in need of humanitarian assistance. In 2015 the ongoing armed clashes have caused further waves of displacement. In January 2016, there were 3,290,000 recorded IDPs and 245,000 Syrian refugees in Iraq.
Access to the displaced populations remains the main challenge. Most of the IDPs have settled out of the camps (both in urban and rural areas), are widely spread and move frequently among different host communities. In addition, Conventional Weapons (CWs) and Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs) continue to impose a devastating human toll in Iraq. In contaminated areas, local populations, IDPs and returning populations are all at risk of death and injury. It is estimated that an average of 324 IED incidents occur on a monthly basis.
HI has currently 5 offices in Iraq:

  • Erbil coordination office -Kirkuk field office - Mosul field office – Kalar field office – Baghdad office
    HI’s strategy in Iraq for 2017-2019 includes 3 main components:
  • Arms Risk Reduction: Including Risk Education and Land release
  • Health: Physical and psychological rehabilitation
  • Inclusive access to essential services

WORKING ENVIRONMENT

Kirkuk governorate is currently hosting about 114,984 IDPs (15th Oct. 2018- IOM-DTM), after 2016’ and 2017’ massive displacement wave in the Governorate; 2017 saw the settlements of IDPs in camps and communities close to Kirkuk city and 2018 sees a steady trend of return which is still slowed by IED-ERW contamination, guerrilla type of conflict that targets mainly military targets but sometimes affecting civilians; in a context of ethno-sectarian and political tensions.
In the former ISG controlled territories in the district of Hawija, most of the conflict affected population have received little humanitarian assistance from 2014 to 2017, in part due to access and security concerns for humanitarian actors. After Iraqi army retaking of the full control of the governorate in October 2017, the district of Hawija has remained till now difficult to access while facing the issue of IDPs/returnees trying to come back to their land confronted to different issues including massive contamination with Conventional Weapons (CW) and Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs).
With the light but steady positive evolution of the security context in Kirkuk governorate and specifically in Hawija district, HI has been able to launch several activities in October 2018 such as psychosocial activities (PSS), physical rehabilitation services, mine risk education and collaboration with a large consortium of other NGOs on inclusion and support to civil society.

HI PRESENTATION

Since the offensives of the group Islamic State (IS) in 2014, Iraq has been facing an internal armed conflict and a double humanitarian crisis, with high numbers of Iraqi internally-displaced people (IDPs) and Syrian refugees in need of humanitarian assistance In 2015, 2016 and 2017 the ongoing armed clashes have caused further waves of displacement.

Throughout 2017, military operations were conducted in Ninewa, Kirkuk, Salah Al Din and Anbar to regain territory from the “Islamic State” Group (IS), with the Iraqi Prime Minister declaring all Iraqi territory as retaken and under state control in December 2017. However, insecurity continues across many areas of Iraq, due to the presence of IS group sleeping cells, and escalating disputes between state and non-state armed actors, frequently on sectarian lines. Whilst the emergent returns process represents a major shift in the humanitarian context, displacement continues in many areas in response to these new threats. In October 2018, there were 1,891,000 recorded IDPs, 4,075,000 returnees and 249,000 Syrian refugees in Iraq.
In parallel, the economic and political crisis in Iraq is hampering the delivery of medical and socio-economic services, complicating the access and increasing the vulnerability of the general population, and in particular of persons with disabilities, all over Iraq
In addition, Conventional Weapons (CW) and Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs) continue to impose a devastating human toll in Iraq. In contaminated areas, local populations, IDPs and returning populations are all at risk of death and injury.

WORKING ENVIRONMENT

  • Emergency response for Internally Displaced Persons and vulnerable host communities (rapid protection assessments, provision of physical rehabilitation and psychosocial support services).
  • Mine Action component: risk education, victim assistance, non-technical survey and clearance operations

Since 2014, HI has scaled up its intervention in Iraq to respond to the humanitarian needs generated by the capture of territory by the ISIS-group, subsequent military operations and the widespread displacement of Iraqi populations. HI has become a lead implementing agency in the emergency response in the Health and Protection sectors, operating across 5 different Governorates.
The current operations are implemented through direct intervention in the Kurdistan region (mine action project - clearance) and in Central Iraq (Ninewah, Kirkuk, Diyala Governorates) and through local partners in Anbar, Baghdad and Ninewah Governorates.
