“I am a father of six and I decided to take part in the project as a volunteer to ensure the safety and distribution of the porridge. My two youngest children, aged 2 and 4, come regularly to collect their portion. The change in my 2-year-old son is incredible: he weighed just 8 kg before we started and today the scales show 13 kg.” - Blambo Kindi, 40 years old

In the Busuma refugee camp in , more than 65,000 people who have fled eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo are living in extremely vulnerable conditions. One of the most severe emergencies is malnutrition, which particularly affects children.

With the support of the Ambassade des Pays-Bas au Burundi, we are working to provide immediate assistance to the most vulnerable families and to prevent a large-scale nutrition crisis.

Within just a few weeks, we have launched a daily distribution programme of ready-to-eat fortified porridge, locally produced and targeted at the most vulnerable cases. A simple yet essential intervention that is already making a difference in the lives of many families.

While attacks continue in Ukraine, we remain by the side of those who should never be a target. Among them are the children of Pečenehy, in the Kharkiv region, who at the beginning of 2025 saw their school destroyed and erased as a place of learning and everyday life.

Since then, more than 100 students have lost their school space, a place they rely on, which went far beyond lessons.

When a school is attacked, it is not just a building that is targeted. The right to education, safety, and hope for an entire generation comes under attack.

Their right to the future is under attack.

Schools are not military targets. Civilians are not targets. EVER.

We have been working in Ukraine since 2022, alongside children and families affected by the war. We continue to work to ensure access to education and safe spaces, even in the areas hardest hit by the conflict.

Defending the rights of younger generations today means defending their right to the future.

Across communities, young people are stepping forward with bold ideas to tackle climate and environmental challenges—and their voices are being heard. This SSY case study highlights how youth are not only identifying pressing environmental issues but also designing practical, community-driven solutions. Through targeted training, mentorship, and access to platforms, they are transforming participants into advocates and change-makers.

From local forums to national conversations, these young leaders are engaging stakeholders, influencing discussions, and pushing for sustainable action. Their stories reflect innovation, resilience, and a shared commitment to protecting the environment for future generations”

Our response to the ongoing emergency in Syria continues, where heavy seasonal rains and the rapid rise in the level of the Euphrates caused severe flooding in the eastern part of the country last week, submerging villages and farmland and damaging essential infrastructure.

Thousands of people saw their daily lives change within a matter of hours, and hundreds of families were forced to leave their homes.

Our team in Deir-ez-Zor immediately went to the field. Thanks to our presence on the ground and the expertise of our staff, we launched the emergency response in the affected areas within 24 hours.

To continue ensuring access to water, thanks to support from European Union humanitarian funds, we secured the main pumping station in the city of Deir-ez-Zor, Al Furat, helping to maintain the water supply for around 400,000 people. This intervention made it possible to safeguard an essential resource just when it was needed most.

We have also distributed drinking water to communities left without water services, reaching around 90,000 people. We are also preparing to distribute hygiene kits and essential goods to support families facing the harshest consequences of the flooding.

We have been working in Syria since 2011. Today, as then, we continue to stand by communities affected by crises, responding rapidly to emergencies and supporting people on their path to recovery and reconstruction.

In recent days, the escalation of hostilities in Lebanon has once again upended the lives of thousands of people.

In this video, our colleague Wehbeh Abdulkarim shares what is happening across the country and the impact on affected communities: families forced to flee their homes in search of safety, amid growing uncertainty and humanitarian needs.

In the northern areas of Lebanon, the continuous arrival of displaced people is putting increasing pressure on available shelters and host communities. The most urgent needs continue to grow: safe accommodation, food, essential items, and protection.

Our team is distributing essential items such as mattresses, blankets, pillows, and other essential relief items to newly arrived families, while closely monitoring the situation and standing ready to scale up the response if conditions deteriorate further.

The situation remains uncertain and is evolving rapidly.

We have been present in Lebanon for the past 20 years, and we remain committed to standing alongside affected communities, responding to urgent needs and supporting those who are once again forced to rebuild their lives.

“We get affected by every word said by someone who hasn’t lived this pain.”

Sarah, who has been displaced together with her family in 2024 from Khiam – South Lebanon – and last March from Southern Beirut.

The latest escalation on Lebanon started three months ago. Once again, homes have been destroyed, families have flown, people have been killed, and memories are all that is left.

Sarah, together with Tharwat, a member of WeWorld staff in Lebanon who has also been displaced with her family last March, tell us what it means to be displaced in our latest short film Under Evacuation Orders, produced thanks to the support of Italy by Chloe Khoury, Laura Menassa and Ameen Abo Kaseem.

Together with Agenzia Italiana per la Cooperazione allo Sviluppo - Ufficio di Beirut, in the last three months we have been supporting families displaced and affected by the attacks in the Bekaa, Baalbek-Hermel and Akkar regions, through the distribution of water, tailored hygiene kits, essential items, and on-site reparation of critical infrastructure.

We have been present in Lebanon for the last 20 years, alongside the population, both national and refugee communities, adapting our intervention to their evolving needs.

In the last days, the water level of the Euphrate river in eastern Syria has risen alarmingly, causing damages to critical infrastructure near the banks and forcing families to evacuate.

Yesterday and last night, during the Eid celebrations, our team in Deir-ez-Zor, thanks to the support of the humanitarian funds of the EU Civil Protection & Humanitarian Aid, stepped in to respond promptly, and managed to secure the operation and engine rooms in the Al-Furat pumping station, by making an earthen fence around the rooms to protect them from the rising water. The station is the biggest one in the city and in the whole area, and provides water to more than 400,000 residents.

According to the Water Board, 75% of pumping stations in rural areas in Deir-ez-Zor and Ar-Raqqa governorates went out of service due to the rising water level.

We have been operating in Syria for the last 15 years, supporting the population, and will continue to do so, adapting to the evolving needs and responding to the emergencies promptly.

Living menstruations with dignity, without stigma, without shame and without barriers to education, health and your participation in social life. This is menstrual justice: a right for all.

Every year, millions of young people miss school due to lack of hygiene products, clean water, adequate toilets and privacy.

In areas affected by conflicts, prolonged crises or natural disasters, access to these resources becomes even more difficult.

For years, work in Italy and worldwide has focused on promoting menstrual justice and addressing menstrual poverty through awareness activities, distribution of menstrual hygiene materials, access to water and safe sanitation services in schools, communities and displacement camps.

Families, teachers and community leaders receive involvement because cultural change requires participation from all.

Menstrual rights are human rights.

Rights have no exceptions.

Different areas of have been deeply affected by recurrent conflict, displacement, and movement restrictions, disrupting livelihoods and placing pressure on local businesses and producers.

In the Bekaa and Baalbek-Hermel regions, we have worked alongside refugee and local communities in vulnerable conditions together with local partners in order to strengthen their self-reliance through sustainable livelihoods in the agri-food sector.

In the last weeks, we collected the voices of project participants whose activities were interrupted by the recent instability and who faced many challenges in sustaining their work, income, and daily lives.

Watch the video to find out more.

Our project is in partnership with Mada Association and the Lebanese Observatory for Workers & Employees Rights المرصد اللبناني لحقوق العمال والموظفين, and funded by the European Regional Development and Protection Program RDPP Middle East (RDPP III) for Jordan and Lebanon.

More than 658,000 school-aged children in Gaza have lost access to consistent, in-person formal education since October 2023. With over 90% of school buildings damaged or destroyed, many children today learn in temporary spaces surrounded by rubble, displacement camps, and the remnants of what once were neighborhoods and schools. And still, children are planting trees and flowers there. Because they decided their future still matters.

After a year of working with children through education and psychosocial support, our RISE project, implemented together with our local partner Teachers Creativity Center, is now helping children reclaim their learning spaces through environmental clubs, turning hope into action.

Children aged 12-14 are planting flowers, olive and lemon trees, turning broken stones into planting beds, recycling plastic bottles into bird feeders, reusing old wood to build school furniture, and building green corners in classrooms that had none.

For many, planting didn't start at school. During displacement, some carried seeds from one shelter to the next, growing food, making something feel like home, wherever they stopped.

"For the first time in a long time, I see the kids more energetic after an activity, not only before it." Teacher

Four learning spaces have been transformed so far. More underway. These spaces may be temporary. The sense of belonging, care and resilience children are building inside them is not.

Through the RISE project, WeWorld and TCC with the support of the Akelius Foundation, continue supporting conflict-affected children in Gaza and the West Bank.
