IOM started the Cross-Border Programme in Türkiye for north-west Syria in 2014, with a focus on the procurement, storage, shipment, and distribution of life-saving humanitarian relief items. Since then, IOM’s cross-border operations have grown to include humanitarian activities in different sectors, including provision of shelter, water and sanitation, relief items, protection, and food. These programs reach more than one million Syrians annually with essential assistance. IOM works with implementing partners in north-west Syria to ensure that global standards and protocols are followed during the implementation of activities. IOM programmes address humanitarian and recovery needs, and support efforts towards addressing protracted and sudden-onset displacement.
