To help people learn more about their rights, MADRE developed comic strips for Syrian and Iraqi refugees. The comic strips aim to address a common issue for refugees and displaced people — they don’t have official identity documents and, because of it, cannot access humanitarian aid and other crucial resources.
With you and with MADRE, our grassroots partners protect and provide for the most vulnerable. They build new skills and grow as community leaders. And they bring their demands to policymakers and advocate for rights, resources and results.
Together, we save lives, rebuild communities and secure women's rights worldwide.
