Protecting Those Who Need It Most
Safety,
Support, and Hope
Together, we can protect vulnerable communities in crisis
Inclusive Care for All
Supporting the Most Marginalised
HiHFAD places the most vulnerable at the centre of its protection programme — including people with disabilities, survivors of war-related injuries, unaccompanied children, women heading households, and families uprooted by conflict. Our work ensures these groups are not left behind and receive the care, dignity, and safety they deserve.
Extending Protection Efforts
HiHFAD leads efforts to reduce the risks faced by persons with disabilities and other at-risk groups. Beyond providing specialised services such as physiotherapy, rehabilitation, and prosthetics, we strengthen community resilience through awareness sessions on inclusion and by promoting inclusive practices among humanitarian actors.
Why Protection Matters
Protection from Exploitation & Violence
The fact that conflict zones – especially in the northwest of Syria – pose such a grave threat to people with disabilities is well known
Psychosocial Support & Resilience
To help people cope with and regain hope after being affected by a mental health issue, we offer intensive psychological support.
Humanitarian aid with a holistic approach
There are a number of elements that constitute protection, including food, shelter, hygiene, and medical supplies
How Your Support Helps
Emergency Response
Rapid protection assistance ensures immediate support for individuals in crisis—offering safety, shelter, and urgent intervention for those at risk of violence, exploitation, or displacement in conflict-affected areas.
Safe Spaces & Shelter
A safe, nurturing environment where vulnerable individuals—particularly women and children—are protected from harm, given access to essential services, and supported as they heal, recover, and rebuild their lives with dignity.
Counseling & Case Management
We provide access to vital psychosocial care, personalized case management, and legal support, ensuring vulnerable individuals receive the guidance, protection, and emotional strength they need to rebuild their lives safe.
Integrated Relief Services
Our protection services are closely aligned with food security, shelter, WASH, and healthcare programs—ensuring a holistic, multi-sectoral safety net that meets the urgent and long-term needs of vulnerable populations.
