ZOA has provided emergency relief to Syrians in Syria and neighbouring countries since 2014. After ZOA’s registration with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MOFA) in 2018, the organization established an office in Damascus in 2019. Since then, ZOA has been working with crisis affected communities across Livelihoods, WASH, Education and Shelter sectors. ZOA implements directly, as well as through local partners. ZOA seeks to reach the most vulnerable groups- women, children, elderly, female headed households, persons with disablities and internally displaced persons.
