NCCI
The NCCI is an autonomous body created by NGOs working in Iraq in 2003, with the aim to promote information sharing and coordination. NCCI is a platform for NGOs working in Iraq that encourages an effective and efficient response to humanitarian needs of the Iraqi people.
Iraq Humanitarian Overview
Though 2009 has been the least violent year since 2003 the impression that Iraq is secure is misleading as it is still a volatile security environment where violence remains a concern for those living in certain areas while a lack of respect for human life continues. The majority of current deaths are civilian. The Iraqi people continue to bear the brunt of the conflict in terms of casualties, displacement, destroyed livelihoods, and restricted access to adequate services. Humanitarian assistance alone cannot meet the huge scale of the needs and more must be done to ensure access to adequate vital services for the population.
The situation is a complex one whereby needs greatly differ from one governorate to another. Different situations occur in the north, central and south. Emergency relief is still required in areas where violence continues to erode stability attempts whereas poverty and underdevelopment affect areas, such as the south.
