HQ : Kirkuk Governorate, Iraq
The Iraqi Ashor Foundation for Relief and Development is a Non-governmental and Nonprofit organization. Its history backs to 2015 when a youth group volunteered to respond to the urgent Iraqi societal needs due to the circumstances it went through and the difficulties it faced through the exposure to wars and conflicts, which resulted in displacement and mass migration. Since that time the youth group started thinking about why such a conflict was happening? What kind of role should youth play to change? And what are the best approaches to deal with the conflict and reach communal resilience.
During conflict and the battle with the so-called Islamic states in Iraq and Syria ISIS the focus of the agency was on responding to the humanitarian and basic needs of marginalized groups ‘Displaced Community’ . While after the conflict the agency works to support the relief efforts of the returned families in terms of restoring their economic and social life .
After around five years of conflict Ashor believes that our mission is not ended yet and we need to think about a more constructive and transformative approach into the conflict as a vehicle for change and seeks for a peaceful society. Ashor got registered with the Iraqi Directory of Non-governmental Organizations DNGOs on 2019.
