Emergency Relief

Communities in Lebanon and across the Arab work are experiencing the effects of climate change, natural, and man-made disasters.

Climate Change:

Increasingly extreme and unpredictable weather patterns have resulted in both floods and droughts. These are increasing vulnerability in many of the countries where we work, by making crop failure and water shortages more likely. We are working with such communities to help them combat and mitigate climate change destruction by increasing our work on climate change adaptation; helping to implement changes in human behaviour that reduce the harm of, or take opportunities from, climate change.

Al-Inaam helps vulnerable communities achieve long-term sustainable development. Their livelihoods, in all communities, are largely affected by and dependent upon the surrounding environment. Much of our work, in partnership with local communities, involves helping communities to adapt and adjust in the face of climate change, such as helping improve water and sanitation, food security and emergency preparedness.

Natural and Man-Made Disasters:

At Al-Inaam Foundation, we pride ourselves on our rapid response to disasters. Lebanon has experienced several devastating disasters in the past few years, including the 2020 Beirut port blast and 2023 earth quake of 6.3. Both of these disasters required immediate mobilization and response to ensure that those that are vulnerable had access to basic amenities including food, shelter, medical assistance, and rebuild support.
