World Vision Iraq

🌱 Vian established a greenhouse equipped with modern irrigation systems on her family land in Qasrki village in Iraq. She cultivates seasonal fruit for local markets while rebuilding stability for herself and her two children as a single mother. At 29 years old, Vian had already endured years of conflict. She returned to Sinjar in 2021 hoping to rebuild her life after being displaced. Instead, she found herself facing severe economic hardship, prolonged drought, and growing isolation. Thanks to a project implemented by @IraqVision in partnership with the UN, Vian managed to turn her life around. This is how she achieved it: ow.ly/OsBh50YZvH0 #ClimateChangeDay

💧“I want an #Iraq where there is enough clean water.” #ClimateChange is reshaping life across the country – drying rivers, displacing families, and deepening hunger. Yet amid these challenges, Iraq’s children are raising their voices. @IraqVision National Director Biruk K. Beyene reflects on how the country's children are participants in the solutions, shaping a more hopeful and #sustainable future. #COP30 #ClimateAction #ChildRights #ENOUGHCampaign #ClimateJustice

@IraqVision is proud to highlight the voices of children and youth as active peacebuilders in their communities. ✌️ They held a workshop in #Kirkuk with the Children & Youth Group of Iraq, bringing together kids, young people, local authorities, and faith leaders. In this artwork from Shayan Nuradeen, two young people share a vision of peace: a girl riding a bicycle alongside a boy in a wheelchair. From the boy’s basket, various birds of peace take flight, symbolizing diversity and inclusion. The sky bursts with vivid shades, reminding us that peace is a tapestry woven from our differences. #WorldPeaceDay #InternationalDayOfPeace

After years of conflict in Iraq, NGOs are joining forces to support its reconstruction. While visiting @IraqVision, Regional Leader @EleanorMonbiot met with representatives of the Resilience and Recovery Pathways for Iraq Programme (#RRPI). This collaboration is the way forward for the country, bridging the gap between humanitarian aid and long-term recovery. #WorldVision #farming #smartagriculture

"The effects of #climatechange in #Iraq threaten the lives and dreams of children," says Middle East & Eastern Europe Regional Director @EleanorMonbiot in her recent feature for El Pais. Eleanor shares why we must keep the #climatecrisis at the centre of global conversations for real change to happen: ow.ly/oJef50WrLS9 #water #oil #sanitation #WASH

To support farmers affected by #climatechange, @IraqVision is implementing smart agriculture. These techniques combat crop reduction, caused by soaring temperatures and less rainfall. @WVMEERO Regional Leader Eleanor Monbiot met with a farmer using climate-smart agriculture.

Mahran moves around by crawling: “If one thing could change my life... it would be a wheelchair and a toilet I can use without pain." The conflict in #Iraq stripped villages of infrastructure and clean #water. Read more @IraqVision ow.ly/jHvp50WkZBK #WASH #Disability
