Survivor-centred Implementation of the Yazidi Survivors Law

This project aims to strengthen the advocacy of survivors’ networks in Iraq while addressing the implementation gap of the Yazidi Survivors Law by working with the Directorate of Victims and facilitating meaningful participation of Yazidi women and girl survivors in the process. Project activities include: (1) providing training and networking support to survivor groups in Sinjar and Dohuk; and (2) providing technical assistance to state actors on how to ensure a survivor-centred approach to the law's implementation. The Global Survivors Fund implements this project.

The expected outcomes of the project include: (1) increase and meaningful participation of Yazidi women and girl survivors in the implementation and monitoring of the law; and (2) demonstrated actions by state actors to ensure a survivor-centred approach to the law's implementation.
