Al-TAHRIR VILLAGE
Our newly built village in northern Syria, offering displaced families the chance to rebuild their lives after years of conflict.
ABOUT THE PROJECT
We’re excited to share the first official update on Al-Tahrir Village, a newly constructed community in northern Syria, marking a major step forward in our mission to support displaced families in returning to their homeland.
The village includes 340 homes, complete with full water and sanitation infrastructure, as well as access to nearby schools and healthcare facilities. Built in partnership with local communities, Al-Tahrir offers a practical alternative for families who are unable to return home, ensuring safety and dignity.

+340 homes built, each with two rooms, a kitchen, bathroom, and veranda - covering 53.7m² of living space.
+Clean water and sanitation systems fully installed across the site.
+2,040 rightholders safely relocated from the site with access to temporary shelter and sanitation.
+Remaining funds redirected to repair damaged homes, schools, and mosques in newly liberated areas.
+Access to the local school, health centre, and mosque is available nearby.
+A wastewater treatment plant is scheduled for construction to support long-term sustainability.
REMOVING BARRIERS
Damaged Homes
We’ve built 340 new homes in Al-Tahrir for families who are unable to return to their original homes. The remaining funds are being used to repair homes damaged in newly liberated areas.
Lack of Infrastructure
Al-Tahrir is equipped with clean water and sewage systems, and a wastewater treatment plant is currently underway. Families also have access to schools and healthcare nearby.
No Livelihood Opportunities
Without a way to earn a living, return feels impossible. Our campaign includes support for livelihoods through community-led recovery and local economic development.
Lack of Transportation
2,050 individuals were safely relocated to a temporary shelter near the site. Transport assistance is also part of the broader campaign to help more families return.
Partially Destroyed Homes
In addition to new homes in Al-Tahrir, we’re repairing partially damaged houses elsewhere to make them livable again.
Health Risks
Homes in Al-Tahrir include clean water, sanitation, and hygiene facilities. A new treatment plant and access to nearby healthcare reduce health-related risks.
Al-Tahrir is more than a village; it’s a transition from survival to recovery. It shows what’s possible when we listen to displaced families and respond to what they truly need: safety, dignity, and the chance to rebuild. But this is just the beginning.
Across Syria, millions of people still face the same barriers Al-Tahrir was built to overcome. With your support, we can repair more homes, restore vital infrastructure, revive livelihoods, and help families finally return, not just to shelter, but to a future.
Donate today and help take the Rebuilding Lives Shelter Project even further. Together, we can turn your compassion into action.
