81318103 - Third Party Monitoring (TPM) of GIZ MHPSS projects inside Syria
Context Following over a decade of conflict, Syria is undergoing a critical transition after the fall of the Assad regime in late 2024 and the formation of a transitional government, raising cautious hope for peace and inclusive state-building. Regional actors like the UAE and Qatar are supporting stabilization, including repayment of Syria"s World Bank debt, while lifted U.S. sanctions and partial EU sanction relief are enabling economic recovery and reconstruction. Despite these positive developments, humanitarian needs remain immense. Over 16.7 million people require aid, with 90% of the population living below the poverty line, 7.2 million internally displaced, and public services overstretched. Hospitals lack capacity, supplies are scarce, and many communities remain without safe shelter, clean water, or reliable health services. In this context, BMZ continues its commitment to Syria"s recovery. Since 2020, GIZ has implemented a Mental Health and Psychosocial Support (MHPSS) project to improve services for IDPs and host communities, addressing rising psychosocial distress worsened by the 2023 earthquakes. The program builds local health and social sector capacity through training in interventions such as CBT, psychodrama, and emergency pedagogy, alongside mentoring and supervision to tackle the shortage of qualified professionals. Operating mainly in North Syria while expanding nationwide, the project works with over 15 local partners to strengthen service coordination and referral systems.
