Nadia's Initiative rehabilitates WASH infrastructure in villages across Sinjar

With generous support from UAE Aid, Nadia’s Initiative (NI) worked with Dorcas Aid to rehabilitate WASH infrastructure in 10 villages across Sinjar: Khenis, Bab Al Khan, Kaniya Edo, Nisyria, Zaytonia, West Tel Qasab, Rojeen, Borek, Maao, and Jefriya. This support provided a lifeline to families (nearly 20,000 individuals in total) throughout the region, helping them access clean water and meet their daily needs.

Additionally, through this project, 8 “Village WASH Committees” were established and trained, giving them the capacity to work with local authorities to manage and maintain their water networks.

This second phase of the project is part of a broader WASH project that has been carried out over the past three years, providing WASH to thousands of individuals across Sinjar and enabling them to rebuild their lives after the genocide. NI would like to thank the UAE for this critical support and Dorcas Aid for their assistance in implementation.
