Description :
Following the fierce fighting in Fallujah, the US government is on July 20, 2016 holding a pledging conference in Washington with major governments. They aim to raise $861 million to ‘support humanitarian and stabilization efforts in Iraq’.
The International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) states that the use of these funds must put people’s needs first to achieve a stable Iraq.
Almost one in ten Iraqis are displaced (3.3 million people) - half are children. Aerial footage gathered by the International Committee of the Red Cross shows the vastness of the camps for the displaced.
A few weeks ago Kifah Jumaa finally made it out of the besieged town of Fallujah. She now spends her nights struggling to get her children to sleep in the sweltering heat in Amiriyat Al-Fallujah Camp.
In these camps, the conditions often don’t reach a minimum of level of dignity and comfort and whole families find their movements restricted.
Beyond the camps, many are seeking shelter in unfinished and abandoned buildings and informal settlements, while others spend the little they have left on rented accommodation.
As food and financial insecurity grow, many children are forced to work to help generate an income.
