The European Commission has successfully delivered the €200 million humanitarian aid package for the Syria Crisis, and Iraq, announced last September.
“The EU is delivering on its commitment to support the most vulnerable people affected by the Syria crisis both inside Syria and in the region,” said Christos Stylianides, EU Commissioner for Humanitarian Aid and Crisis Management.
The €200 million package includes already announced allocations for Syria (€62 million), Lebanon (€43 million), Jordan (€28 million) and the Western Balkans (€7 million). Funding has been channelled through the UN, International Organisations, and international NGO partners, and is responding to life-threatening needs in the areas of food aid, health, water, sanitation and hygiene as well as shelter and protection.
The EU is the leading donor to the Syria crisis with around €4.4 billion from the EU and Member States collectively in humanitarian, development, economic and stabilisation assistance. (EU Neighbourhood Info)
