Funding Facility for Stabilization in Iraq

This project supports the coordination of donor funding to create conditions to facilitate the return of over six million Iraqis to areas liberated from Daesh and to support reconstruction and recovery in Iraq. The Funding Facility for Stabilization in Iraq was created at the request of the Government of Iraq in 2015 and has 28 donor countries. Project activities include: (1) developing infrastructure projects to restore basic services; (2) creating livelihood opportunities particularly for women and youth; (3) implementing social cohesion activities in liberated areas; and (4) developing medium-size infrastructure projects in liberated areas.

The expected outcomes for this project include: (1) increased access to essential services by affected populations; (2) increased access to livelihood opportunities by affected populations; and (3) increased capacity of local authorities to address the basic needs of affected populations.
