EMERGENCY RESPONSE
Save the Children works in close collaboration and partnership with the following:
Save the Children has been delivering programs to help both Iraqi IDPs and Syrian Refugees
including:
Child Protection programs that reunite children who have been separated from their
families, identify children who need extra support and ensure that children have a safe and
secure place to learn and develop.
Education programs that ensure displaced Iraqi, Syrian refugee and children from the hostcommunity get the education that they deserve.
WASH programs to provide clean water to drink, cook and bathe, as well as basic hygiene
supplies and sanitation infrastructure.
Food programs to help families who have fled their homes, secure an adequate amount of
food, in both the short-term and long-term.
Shelter and Non-Food Items programs ensure families who have fled their homes have
the basic items they need to protect them from the elements, help them retain a sense of
normalcy and care for their children and themselves.
Save the Children also co-leads the Education Cluster and Child Protection Working Group
