Solid Waste Management and Rubble Removal in 10 Communities in Hama Governorate
Following the outbreak of the conflict, debris and rubble accumulated as a result of the repeated shelling of cities. The lack of heavy machinery to rehabilitate water mains, remove debris, open roads, and clean city squares exacerbated the situation. As the conflict continued, waste containers were misappropriated, used as barriers during clashes, and destroyed. As a result, waste has been piled into mounds while health problems and diseases spr...
Procurement of Hessian Sacks for 2015 Wheat Crops in the Governorates of Aleppo, Dar’a and Idleb
Since the start of the revolution, Syria’s agriculture sector has weakened considerably. Violence and misappropriations have destroyed vast swaths of farmland, while militia checkpoints and a deteriorating infrastructure have significantly hampered the transportation, distribution, and sale of harvested crops. Furthermore, regime strikes have deeply compromised grain storage facilities; this has undermined farmers’ ability to store crops after ha...
Support to the National Wheat Procurement Project in Aleppo, Dar’a and Idleb Governorates
Syria’s wheat production in the 2014 was down 50% of the 10-year-average, namely 1 million tons per year, according to FAO estimates. To meet basic consumption needs, the Syrian Public Establishment for Grains (SPEG) estimated that Syrians require at least an additional quantity of 250,000 – 300,000 tons of imported wheat. Subsequently the SIG declared food security achievement a national priority, urging for immediate action to remedy supply sho...
Storage and Milling Support to the National Wheat Programme
In the next 12 months, the Syrian population will face major problems related to food security. As of June 2014, there is a concrete risk that harvested wheat is bought by traders that later on speculate on its price (thus causing rapid price fluctuations). Without any grain reserves, there is a serious risk that food insecurity may lead to acute malnutrition, or even starvation, and spread of diseases with fatal consequences. This project addr...
