Our Work in the Middle East, Europe & Asia

In 2021, Global Communities worked alongside communities in more than a dozen countries in Europe, Asia and the Middle East, connecting young people with economic opportunities and the tools to lift their own voices for positive change. From building social cohesion in the wake of conflict to delivering lifesaving assistance amid protracted and ongoing crises, we stood with partners striving for more just, equitable and prosperous communities across the region.
