About Mercy Hands:
Mercy Hands for Humanitarian Aid is a non-governmental not-for-profit nonpartisan organization that works in conflict torn and disaster affected areas to save lives, sustain human rights and restore a healthy community. We serve people in need, regardless of their religion, sect, ethnicity and/or political affiliation.
We aspire to live in a society where justice prevails, law rules, individual and group rights are preserved, differences are acknowledged and welcomed, people work together to develop and sustain resources for future generations, and manmade disasters are virtually nonexistent.
About the Project:
Mercy Hands is launching a new project in coordination with GIZ: Building Resilient Communities to Prevent Violent Extremism. The project will involve awareness raising and improvement of local activities available to youth and women, who will include IDPs and returnees. Through this, the project will reduce the incentives for vulnerable groups to join extremist organizations, combat and prevent violent extremism and increase social cohesion and tolerance.
The activities will include a community training session, community meetings, improvement of the centres in Jalawla, Alsa’d Iyah and Khanaqin and an art, sport and livelihood activity in each area.
Mercy Hands will hire one Project Manager for this project, to oversee all three centres in Jalawla, Alsa’d Iyah and in Khanaqin.
