Based on the analysis of the current situation and the experience gained in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq (KRI), INTERSOS intends to extend its protection programme in partnership with Sewan for Women Empowerment Organization to contribute towards enhancing protection, increasing safety and promoting dignity of conflict-affected women, men, girls and boys, across the Northern Districts of Ninewa Governorate (Telafar, Tilkaif, Shikhan and Sinjar). These areas are currently concerned by prolonged displacement and voluntary return movements. Moreover, with the intensification of the military operations around Mosul, it is expected that a high number of newly displaced people and/or newly accessible people will be imminently in need of critical assistance.
