September 2016 – The Syria Crisis has undermined security and stability in the Middle East and has resulted in unprecedented humanitarian needs. Now in its sixth year, the conflict in Syria has led to the worst displacement crisis in the world. Millions of internally displaced persons (IDPs), refugees, stateless persons and asylum seekers in Syria, Iraq, Jordan, Lebanon, Egypt and Turkey are vulnerable to violence, food and income insecurity, health risks, and sexual and gender-based violence. Canada is helping to reduce the vulnerability of millions of crisis-affected people, especially women and children, through a broad spectrum of humanitarian assistance activities across Syria and in refugee hosting countries. GAC’s multi-year humanitarian support to the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) contributes to improved health, living conditions, livelihoods and protection for vulnerable populations in Jordan and Lebanon. In both countries, project activities include: (1) providing food assistance and non-food essential relief items to conflict-affected people; (2) providing emergency cash assistance, and water and shelter support; and (3) providing medical services by directly supporting health centres and hospitals. In Lebanon, ICRC is providing physical rehabilitation support to vulnerable people.
