UNDP Iraq

REBORN is more than a title. It is a testament to what’s possible when resilience meets partnership, and when the world believes in the power of people to rise again.

When the dust of war settles, what remains is not just the rubble of buildings, but the resilience of people. In 2015, at a time when hope felt distant for many Iraqis, the Funding Facility for Stabilization (FFS) was launched with a singular purpose: to help communities get back on their feet. The idea was simple, but bold: move quickly, rebuild fast, and restore dignity by bringing basic services, jobs, and opportunity back to places once occupied by terror. What followed was one of the largest and most ambitious post-conflict stabilization programmes in the world.

In the aftermath of ISIL’s defeat, the UNDP Funding Facility for Stabilization (FFS) continues to help communities in Anbar, Ninewa, Salah al-Din, Kirkuk, and Diyala rebuild essential infrastructure and restore livelihoods.

Recognizing corruption as a fundamental cause of instability and conflict, Prime Minister Mohammed Shia Al Sudani and his government have prioritized the fight against corruption for sustainable development. Iraq’s commitment, as ratified through the United Nations Convention against Corruption (UNCAC) in 2008, underscores its dedication to transparent governance.
