In a significant collaboration, the Qatar Fund For Development (QFFD) and the International Rescue Committee (IRC) launched a new project to provide primary healthcare services to more than 23,000 Syrian refugees in Za’atari Refugee Camp. This initiative, set to extend for approximately two and a half years, marks a critical step towards addressing the urgent healthcare needs of the world’s largest Syrian refugee camp.

Each year, the IRC’s Emergency Watchlist identifies and ranks the countries most at risk for experiencing a new or worsening humanitarian crisis.

This year, World Refugee Day is on June 20th, 2018. According to AwarenessdaysUK, World Refugee Day is day dedicated to:"Honoring the strength and courage of refugees and encourages public awareness and support of refugees, people who have had to flee their homelands because of conflict or natural disaster".
