About
The We Are Peace Organization for Voluntary Work possesses extensive field and institutional experience in working on issues of social cohesion, peacebuilding, and supporting vulnerable groups. Since 2022, the organization has been operating in the Sharqat district and surrounding areas in northern Salah al-Din Governorate, including the villages of Al-Nahiyah and Gana'ous, located on the administrative border with Nineveh and Kirkuk Governorates. The organization's continuous presence in the region has enabled it to develop a deep understanding of the local context and the socio-economic challenges facing returning and conflict-affected families. Over the past years, the organization has implemented a number of community initiatives and projects related to social reintegration, promoting peaceful coexistence, and supporting marginalized groups. These include contributing to the rehabilitation and reopening of the National Identity Card office in the district, and implementing activities to engage marginalized youth and women in peacebuilding, social cohesion, and local reconstruction processes. The organization also works in the areas of activism, social cohesion, human rights, support for marginalized groups, peacebuilding, awareness-raising, agricultural and environmental development, relief, livelihoods, capacity building and community empowerment, education, and health since 2017
