https://t.co/eubA0kxkB7 NRC on a looming housing crisis in Lebanon: “We're seeing an increase in evictions, the main driver is the inability to pay rent. With the crisis... Lebanese landlords are hard hit, and Syrians have lost their jobs or suffer a drastic drop in income." |
https://t.co/QsCvT3vjuo Protracted crises in Syria, Yemen, the Horn of Africa and the Sahel are worsening while the horrors in Ukraine are getting our attention. Humanitarian relief can help mitigate the effects but ultimately, inclusive political solutions are needed to end them https://t.co/QPB6eZIMRa While we look with shock and horror at what is unfolding in Ukraine, we're reminded of the intense and worsening suffering that the Syrian population has endured for eleven long years. Don't forget Syria. https://t.co/qEiZKwrYBg Yemen pledging conference: "More lives will be lost. More children will starve. More families will sleep outside. More communities will be without access to clean water. Yet somehow, we will have less money to support them. World leaders must not allow this to happen" #Yemen pledging conference: An outcome that will lead to loss of lives. Read our reaction: https://t.co/2ZCbGPeEVe The world seems to be turning its attention away from Syria but eleven years since the start of the crisis, misery continues. We cannot turn away from the suffering in #Syria https://t.co/6g7TwzWKL0 “In Syria today, more parents than ever cannot afford to put food on the table. Their children go to bed on empty stomachs night after night. Bread, fuel, electricity and clean water are out of reach for millions.” @NRC_Egeland “While we look with shock and horror at what is unfolding in Ukraine, we are reminded of the intense and worsening suffering that the Syrian population has endured for 11 long years.” “I never expected I’d take part in a carpentry course and earn a certificate of completion myself. I was repeatedly questioned for my decision. And yet, here I am, being given the space to get my message across to the world.” |

https://t.co/foHck539wp "While the KRG has established policies for Syrian refugees in Kurdistan to live and work legally, these provisions have not translated into sustainable livelihoods and economic prosperity, resulting in unrealised potential" writes NRC's @caroline_zullo: https://t.co/AnrgfgzKBT Access to decent work is a key human right. A new @NRC_MiddleEast report funded by @RDPPME shows how Syrian refugees in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq #KRI #Iraq face considerable barriers to accessing decent jobs and redressing work rights violations. |

https://t.co/oRAeljRKcS "NRC is urging international donors to step up support for Lebanon’s Syrian refugees and vulnerable Lebanese whose struggle will not stop with the end of winter, particularly with no end in sight to the unprecedented economic crisis." "In January alone, the Norwegian Refugee Council (NRC) received 56 requests for support by Syrian refugees facing evictions in different areas in Lebanon. In 2021, the organisation received over 800 such cases. Overall numbers are likely much higher." Syrian refugees in many parts of #Lebanon are facing evictions from their homes, unable to pay the rent and resorting to desperate measures to cope with the severe winter conditions amidst soaring fuel and food prices.

With @acf_middleeast, @echo_middleeast and @norwaymfa. https://t.co/WoaN75Zrr5 In #Lebanon, NRC’s consultation sessions help people get familiar with the requirements needed for legal documentation. |

"Bread, fuel and gas are not available and the prices are soaring. Heating is what I am mostly concerned about this year. I can handle eating one meal a day, but I cannot bear this cold. I am sick and my husband is too. Heating is our priority" says mother-of-two Mona. https://t.co/DLqrs0lsmt While the sight of snow will bring joy to many, people in #Syria have been suffering since last night. They face another hardship on top of a conflict, a bad economic situation and a pandemic crisis. https://t.co/uSBD6q43vi Displaced people in #Syria have been hit with another snowstorm, and it will not be the last. Staying warm is not possible given limited heating options. Life in these tents is becoming harsher with every winter. https://t.co/NL0ACIWTmV Palestine refugees in the region are in a daily fight for survival. With jobs & education dwindling, support for their livelihoods is now more vital than ever. The int'l community must support @UNRWA's regional refugee appeal. |
https://t.co/P0DmEZ6N5n NRC calls on the Israeli government to end forced displacement and demolitions #SaveSheikhJarrah The eviction of the family marks a clear violation of international law, which prohibits forcible displacement in occupied territory. As the occupying power in East Jerusalem, Israeli authorities have a duty to ensure the security and protection of the Palestinian population. Early Wednesday morning, Israeli authorities demolished a house belonging to Salhiya family in Sheikh Jarrah, East Jerusalem. |
The family have no place to go. Children’s physical and psychological wellbeing is now at risk, having witnessed their home turn into rubble in the dark. Last month concluded our caravan repairs in Zaatari camp, Jordan. |
Caravans are getting older in the camp, increasing demand for repairs & cost of maintaining accommodation for residents. Finding more sustainable accommodation options is becoming a priority. |
@UNHCRJordan https://t.co/seuFeCZKfw "Israeli authorities demolished 902 structures in the West Bank and East Jerusalem in 2021, an escalation that has seen the number of demolitions increasing every year since 2017." @NRC_Norway calls on the Israeli authorities to immediately halt the forceful expulsion of a Palestinian family from their home in the Sheikh Jarrah neighbourhood of East Jerusalem currently taking place. |

https://t.co/eWmliHA6CU Access to education and decent employment is fundamental to upholding the rights of refugees. We are proud to be part of this consortium that will engage public and private actors behind a common goal to improve access to quality education, training and employment opportunities for Jordanian and Syrian refugee youth, including young women locked out of the workforce. After ten years of conflict, children in #Libya need psychosocial support to overcome the trauma of crisis after crisis. Our Better Learning Program equips teachers w/ the skills to provide some of that support while in school. Thanks to @EU_ECHO for making that possible. https://t.co/0Fqwi4Y4DV Another preventable tragedy at sea. |
