The aid targeted internally displaced persons (IDPs) living in temporary settlements, helping them meet their basic needs during crisis conditions.
Behind every olive tree is a story of resilience, work and hope.
In Al-Bab, Aleppo Governorate, Syria, we are supporting olive farmers and their communities in protecting their livelihoods and strengthening the sustainability of local olive production.
In this interview, one of the people, Abu Karmo, involved in the project, shares his experience, his challenges and what this support means for him and his family.
Through the Olive Oil Project, we aim not only to support agricultural production, but also to help farmers preserve a vital source of income, strengthen their resilience and continue cultivating a crop deeply rooted in the region’s identity and history.
A special thank you to @iaco_sy for the implementation of the project, and to @eafoundationuk for making this intervention possible through its generous support.

SUCCESS STORY, THE SEEDS OF FREEDOM. 🌱 One story, part of a much bigger journey.
Through WAP II – Water, Animals and Plants for a Sustainable and Peaceful Ethiopia, Mercy Hands Europe and Agri Service Ethiopia are working alongside rural communities to strengthen resilience through improved water access, sustainable agriculture, livelihood opportunities and community-based action.
Vegetable production is one part of this wider approach: helping households make their livelihoods more diverse and sustainable while strengthening their capacity to face future challenges.
Stories like Mechalie’s remind us that meaningful change often begins with practical opportunities at household level — and grows through long-term investment in communities. 💚
🙏 We are grateful to @ville_de_geneve, @collonge.bellerive, Commune de Vandœuvres and Commune de Chêne-Bourg (and among other donors) for supporting WAP II, and to Agri Service Ethiopia for implementing the project alongside the communities.

🌱 We are back in Gaza.
And being back in Gaza today means taking on a response that is anything but simple.
In an extremely fragile and challenging context, where delivering assistance requires enormous commitment, coordination and determination every single day, we are proud to be able to stand once again alongside families who need support.
Over the coming 90 days, this emergency response aims to provide approximately 41,580 hot meals, offering essential support to families facing extremely difficult circumstances.
We are especially grateful to be joining forces once again with @seedcharity Their trust and generous support are making this intervention possible, and we cannot thank them enough for choosing to support this response at such a critical moment.
We are also incredibly proud to begin this project with our new implementing partner, @ihhinsaniyardim .
Their teams are doing an extraordinary job on the ground. Behind every meal distributed is a significant operational effort: sourcing, preparing, organising and delivering assistance day after day in circumstances where humanitarian work is far from easy.
For us, this is what humanitarian partnership should look like: different organisations bringing their strengths together so that support can actually reach people.
A hot meal cannot change the reality of the crisis. But when circumstances are this difficult, being able to provide food consistently, day after day, is already a major undertaking.
Our heartfelt thanks to @seedcharity Charity for their trust and support, and to IHH and their incredible teams on the ground, who are making this response a reality every day. 🤝
We are back in Gaza — and very proud to contribute to making this support possible.
More updates from the field will follow.

🕊️ Supporting women affected by conflict
In the Water, Animals and Plants for a Peaceful and Sustainable Ethiopia II project, psychosocial support activities helped identify an urgent need among conflict-affected and vulnerable women-headed households in the project area.
In response, 35 women-headed households received essential food assistance and 70 litres of edible oil, helping cover basic household food needs for approximately two months.
The distribution was carried out with the participation of Peace Ambassadors and community representatives, alongside field verification and documentation.
This activity forms part of the project’s broader work to support recovery, psychosocial wellbeing, resilience, and social cohesion in communities affected by conflict.
We are grateful to our implementing partner Agri Service Ethiopia, and the contribution of @ville_de_geneve @collonge.bellerive , Commune de Vandœuvres, and Commune de Chêne-Bourg for making this possible.
