Qatar Charity Pledges to Build the Capacity of 10 Syrian Humanitarian Organizations

Qatar Charity announced its commitment to building and assessing the capacity of partner humanitarian organizations in Syria, as part of its efforts to empower local partners and enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of humanitarian and charitable work.

A press release from Qatar Charity stated that this intervention, which targets 10 partner organizations in its first phase, includes providing systematic institutional support, preceded by a capacity assessment and the implementation of development plans tailored to their needs. These plans include technical and administrative training programs aimed at raising the efficiency of institutional performance and improving the quality of response in fragile environments, while providing technical support to ensure sustainable improvement.

This project will be implemented by the "Maeen Initiative," launched by Qatar Charity, as a qualitative project that translates the organization's vision of localizing humanitarian work and maximizing the role of local actors. The initiative aims to enhance professionalism, transparency, and accountability in the work of local organizations, enabling them to rely on their own capabilities and play an effective role in crisis recovery and sustainable development.

 The Maeen Initiative has developed Arabic-language mechanisms and tools to develop effective governance and program management tools and enhance the sustainability of charitable organizations, in accordance with local conditions and values, best practices, and international standards.

The project is part of Qatar Charity's ongoing efforts to support local partners and enable them to implement more efficient and sustainable humanitarian responses, particularly in areas facing complex challenges and difficult operational conditions.

The Syrian humanitarian organizations that will benefit from the project in its first phase have demonstrated a strong commitment to institutional development and engagement in developing improvement plans that respond to operational priorities and support the continuity of humanitarian services.
