Al-Mesalla.ORG for Human Resources Development is a non-governmental, non-profit civil society organization registered with both the Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG) and the Iraqi Central Government. Since 2004, Al-Mesalla has been actively operating in Iraq, focusing on civil society empowerment, women’s rights, livelihoods, peace, and justice.

Al-Mesalla Organization for Human Resources Development is implementing a 12-month project supporting the reintegration of Iraqi returnees from Northeast Syria and vulnerable host-community members in Ramadi and Fallujah in Anbar Governorate and Shirqat and Baiji in Salah al-Din Governorate. The project works exclusively through existing government and community structures rather than creating parallel systems.

Four connected outputs operate in the same locations. Output 1 strengthens existing MHPSS and case management structures. Output 2 strengthens the capacities of existing Local Peace Committees to facilitate inclusive dialogue and implement conflict-sensitive community initiatives. Output 3 improves employability, livelihood readiness and access to employment, self-employment and financial services. Output 4 strengthens the capacities of frontline government institutions in coordinated case management, service information, referrals, outreach, and complaints and feedback support. The project reaches 1,284 unique direct beneficiaries.
