Focus on Europe
Although Europe largely consists of developed nations, it’s important to remember some nations are still affected by poverty. Over one fifth of Europeans experience at least one form of poverty, and research shows Albania, Bosnia, Kosovo, and North Macedonia – four of the five European countries Islamic Relief works in – are among the poorest nations.
Islamic Relief’s Legacy Across Europe
Islamic Relief’s first humanitarian response was to the Bosnian war in 1995, where we provided vital emergency aid such as food and water and helped rebuild homes, schools, and places of worship. Now, nearly 30 years later, the Islamic Relief global family continues to deliver life-saving aid across five European countries including Albania, Bosnia, Chechnya, Kosovo, and North Macedonia.
A few of our interventions include:
- Access to clean and safe water, education, and healthcare
- Food aid
- Orphan family support
- Sustainable livelihood support
- Socio-economic empowerment for women
- Enhancing resilience for vulnerable populations including refugees
- Winter aid
