Dr Anas Alkaddour outlines Global Communities' sustainable approach to humanitarian aid in Syria. He describes how GC addresses urgent needs while building long-term self-reliance by restoring agricultural practices and local infrastructure. A key intervention he discusses is a bio-gas project that provides energy solutions for female-headed households, enabling them to generate electricity for small businesses and daily needs. Dr Alkaddour emphasises that these initiatives foster economic independence and harness the enduring strength of Syrian culture. He believes tapping into local resilience and heritage is essential for paving the way toward a sustainable and stable future for conflict-affected communities.
