The Unity Circle Report

This report is about the findings of the Unity Circle Project, which started in October 2007 as a collaborative effort between IICRD, Save the Children, and Relief International-Schools Online (RI-SOL).

Using a participatory approach, the Unity Circle project worked with Iraqi children living in Amman, Jordan, to identify the challenges they face and the strategies they have developed to cope with their experience of the war in Iraq and their present circumstances in Jordan – from their perspectives and rooted in their own personal experiences.

Based on a fuller understanding of Iraqi children’s lives, IICRD, Save the Children and RI-SOL make a series of recommendations, which are included at the end of this report.
