Nadia’s Initiative is excited to announce the launch of our Support to
Women’s Livelihoods project that will benefit 345 female-headed farming
households in Sinjar, Iraq.
Nadia’s Initiative works to design sustainable development projects that
are female-centric and target survivors in the Sinjar region. The aim
of these projects is to strengthen the support systems for women in
Sinjar and to improve the income generation capacity of women to support
their livelihoods and increase their resilience.
The people of Sinjar have experienced the worst crimes against humanity,
and their crisis is ongoing. Women in particular have endured
tremendous suffering and should now be afforded the opportunity to gain
economic independence and provide for their families. Providing women
with skills and support is fundamentally important to rebuilding the
Yazidi community and is a crucial step to the formation of a
gender-inclusive society.
This project is implemented by Dorcas Aid International and is financed
by the GIZ commissioned by the Government of the Federal Republic of
Germany.

outrage about police brutality, and America’s deep systemic racial
disparities in the economy, education, criminal justice system, and
health care, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic.
This
six-part series by Ken Burns and Dayton Duncan tells the story of a
