The United Nations Response: UNHCR
• Millions of Syrians and Iraqi refugees face another winter in temporary shelters and flimsy makeshift structures.
• UNHCR & Partners are supplying relief items such as shelter, food, water and blankets.
• Lack of funds means many refugees in and around Syria have no help and no means of escape.
Canadian Government Response
• Pledged additional resources and policy changes speeding up refugee processing without compromising security and medical screening.
• Funding to UNHCR to support critical relief efforts.
• An Emergency Relief Fund to match individual Canadians’ donations dollar for dollar until the end of 2015.
• Committed to working with sponsors to resettle over 33,000 refugees by September 2016.
