Die humanitäre Lage Islamic Relief möchte sich bei all ihren Spendern, Unterstützern, Partnern, Mitarbeitern und Freiwilligen bedanken, die uns dabei geholfen haben, das Leben von mehr als 3,3 Millionen Menschen im Jahr 2017 zu verbessern. Wir beten dafür, dass unsere Unterstützung im Jahr 2018 und darüber hinaus fortgeführt werden kann, ebenso wie wir für Frieden und ein Ende des Leids in Syrien beten. Im Jahr 2017 waren 6,5 Millionen Menschen in Syrien von Ernährungsunsicherheit betroffen, und weitere vier Millionen waren von akuter Ernährungsunsicherheit bedroht. Dies bedeutete, dass mehr als die Hälfte der Bedürftigen dringende lebensrettende und lebenserhaltende Nahrungsmittel sowie Hilfe bei [...]

Islamic Relief Worldwide & The Lutheran World Federation As part of our on-going partnership, the Lutheran World Federation and Islamic Relief Worldwide began to work in 2016 on the development of A faith-sensitive approach in humanitarian response: Guidance on mental health and psychosocial programming. From the onset, we were clear that the guidance should be inclusive of all humanitarian actors, assisting both secular and faith-based organisations in the course of their work in the field. We use the term ‘faith-sensitive’ to bring the focus of the guidance on the faith of the people affected by conflict, disaster and displacement, rather than [...]

A Programmes Paper This paper is intended to reconsider consumption and sustainability from an Islamic perspective. In particular, it sets out to first establish a ‘radical reform’ methodology in order to analyse the question, and then sets about applying this lens to the issue of sustainable consumption. In doing so, it establishes first the interpretative frame, a subsequent re-reading of the sources, and a brief reconsideration of the history of encounters between Islamic societies and the question of consumption. It then suggests a toolkit for Muslims and activists alike to join the fight for a more just, ecologically balanced world in [...]

A Literature Review When undertaking a survey of the literature regarding Islam and sustainable consumption, a number of challenges present themselves. The first is definitional – when defining and demarcating what counts as an ‘Islamic’ response to this question it is important to note that the sheer diversity and decentred nature of ‘Islam’ precludes neat boundaries. Islam, ultimately, is what self-identifying Muslims do, and say, and perform, at any one time. Islam, after all, functions as a verb, rather than a noun. Not only space, and time, but the entanglement of individual and group identity adds further dimensions of complexity. Intersecting [...]

Version 2 (Arabic and English) The blockade imposed on the Gaza Strip for the last decade, have resulted in restrictions and obstacles and undermined the ability of municipalities and relevant ministries to provide the essential services to the population of the Gaza Strip (approx. 2 Million people). This situation has exacerbated the already deteriorated living conditions of the populations of the most vulnerable localities particularly, in terms of economic, environmental, protection, education, and health aspects. The current study of the community vulnerability mapping aims to identify the most vulnerable localities in the Gaza Strip in terms of access of their populations [...]

Community Vulnerability Mapping Study 2017-2018 The blockade and the several wars/assaults on Gaza Strip in the last decade, have imposed huge restrictions and obstacles and undermined the ability of municipalities and relevant ministries to provide the essential services to the population of Gaza Strip (approx. 2 Million people). This situation has exacerbated the already deteriorated living conditions of the populations of the most vulnerable localities in particular in terms of economic, environmental, protection, education, and health aspects. The current study of the community vulnerability mapping aims to identify the most vulnerable localities in Gaza Strip in terms of access of their [...]

A Policy Brief on Female Genital Mutilation/Cutting This policy brief provides the vision and rationale for Islamic Relief to campaign for an end to FGM/C and guides intervention efforts to eradicate it. It calls for the realisation of the fundamental and God-given right of girls and women to live healthy, fulfilled lives free from violence and harm. Female Genital Mutilation/Cutting (FGM/C) currently affects 130 million females, mostly within Africa, and a further two million are at risk of being cut every year. It is a harmful practice, one that varies in its severity and is usually driven by a complex mixture [...]
