Iraq’s civil society activity aims to address significant challenges by supporting nascent groups and organizations, particularly in remote areas, to foster civic engagement. The Iraq Civil Society Activity, or Tafa’aol (تفاعل), employs inclusive approaches, integrating women and various social groups into its initiatives. It focuses on community-oriented solutions and engaging the general public in civic activities. In addition to building a bridge and a stronger trust between the civil society organizations and the communities they serve. By tailoring activities to community priorities, the program ensures that the efforts are relevant and impactful, promoting stronger civic involvement and support across Iraq’s 18 provinces, including the Kurdistan region. Some activities include, engaging youth in finding solutions for their priorities through forums, community multi-stakeholder dialogues, town hall discussions, civil society networks and other types of locally-led initiatives.
