Ecosystem resilience restoration initiative in IDP settlements in Iraq-Anbar
EU‑funded Green Belt initiative implemented by DRC in Bzaibiz to restore ecosystems and support climate resilience
In a year marked by both challenge and transformation in Bzaibiz, the Danish Refugee Council has released a new video capturing the essence of the Ecosystem resilience restoration initiative in IDP settlements in Iraq.
The film underscores the social dimension of the project, spotlighting the efforts of Local Peace Committees, the revitalisation of community services, and the powerful testimonies of participants such as Maryam and Ahmed—whose experiences illustrate the tangible impact of composting, waste management, and climate‑smart approaches.
Presented with clarity and authenticity, the video stands as a testament to collective commitment. It not only celebrates the achievements of initiative but also honours the collaboration between DRC staff, local authorities, and the communities who shaped every step of the journey.
Now live on the DRC website, the video invites audiences to witness a story of resilience, innovation, and hope—one that continues to pave the way for future climate‑focused and community‑driven initiatives in Iraq.
