Published purpose

The UNDP’s Funding Facility for Stabilization was created at the request of the Government of Iraq in 2015 in order to facilitate the return of displaced Iraqis to areas that had been liberated from Daesh. Its mandate was recently extended until 2023. The Fund aims to consolidate military gains and rebuild trust among local people for government authorities by demonstrating quick wins in liberated areas. This project would support FFS efforts in “red box” priority locations, where stabilization needs are most urgent and the risk of re-escalating violence highest. The FFS relies on four primary sets of activities (referred to as ‘Windows’), including: (1) Public works and light infrastructure rehabilitation; (2) Immediate livelihood support for returning IDPs; (3) Capacity support for local governments; and (4) Promoting social cohesion among the target communities.
