Iraq

After the U.S. invasion in 2003, jihadist groups targeted Christians and other religious minorities in Iraq for extermination. Hundreds of thousands fled these attacks. Those who survived the Islamic State's genocide are rebuilding their lives. But the security situation remains very fragile and the future uncertain.

CSI priorities:

Support for Christian schools
Legal assistance for persecuted religious minorities
Medical care for impoverished Iraqis
Support to set up small businesses
Empowering religious minorities to have a voice in society

Children at the Christian kindergarten in Bartella. csi

A kindergarten gives encouragement to Christians in Bartella

The kindergarten that CSI supports in Bartella, northern Iraq, is now firmly established. This is very important, notes CSI partner William Warda, not least because the presence of the kindergarten encourages Christian families to stay on in Muslim-dominated Bartella.
