The world is witnessing the largest movement of refugees since the upheavals of World War II. Here’s a look at how the IRC is providing aid to thousands fleeing to Europe.

The CARE project will be implemented by four civil society partners from Greece and Italy with expertise in women’s and girls’ empowerment to contribute towards the prevention of gender-based violence (GBV) against women and girls, with a focus on Intimate Partner Violence (IPV).

In crisis, the risk of GBV increases, and so does our collective need to act to prevent GBV before it happens or respond to the needs of women and girls when it does.

Our Education programs seek not only to improve learning, but also to achieve overall well-being. We believe that education during crisis and conflict is a necessity, not a luxury.

There are now 100 million people displaced worldwide as a result of the Ukraine war and new waves of conflict and violence in other countries.

The International Rescue Committee (IRC) and the Center for Global Development (CGD) have been closely following the rollout of the IDA18 sub-window for refugee hosting nations, particularly in East Africa (Ethiopia, Uganda), West Africa (Cameroon, Chad), and Asia (Bangladesh). Drawing on original research and analysis, as well as field visits, this note identifies a few clear successes and areas for improvement.
