Funding Facility for Stabilization – Progress Report - Q3 (Jul–Sep 2024)
April 11, 2025
Despite the liberation from the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL), the five governorates of Anbar, Nineveh, Salahaldin, Kirkuk, and Diyala resulted in large scale destruction of socio-economic infrastructure and basic service delivery system for services such as water, healthcare, electricity and education, shelter, and impacted roads, bridges, and in the loss of livelihood/income for the people. In response, the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), in collaboration with the Government of Iraq (GoI) and other development partners, has implemented the Funding Facility for Stabilization (FFS) to provide a strategic framework for reconstruction and development in the five newly liberated governorates.
The project has contributed to improved service provision for citizens, revival of local economic activities and fostered collaboration and trust among diverse communities and ethnic groups. “Overall, the FFS largely contributed to the ultimate return of 4.8 million IDPs to their places of origin and functioning of essential facilities and public infrastructure such as water, electricity, bridges, roads, school, and hospitals – all of which were identified as contributing to restoring a sense of normalcy.” (FFS Summative Evaluation, 2024).
