Silk Road (SRO) is a Non-political, Non-governmental, and Non- profit organization established in Aleppo city in November 2015 then it was registered in Turkey - Gaziantep in 2016 under the name of "Ipek Yolu Dernegi".
Silk Road works to take action to find creative solutions to the persistent problems of conflict-affected people in Syria and Turkey and to support the actions of affected and marginalized people and communities to overcome poverty and suffering more effectively based on complementarity and respect for the contribution that each party brings and upholding the highest ethical and professional standards.
Silk Road cares about supporting vulnerable people in need via focusing on two main sectors currently which are Water, Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH)and Food Security and Livelihood (FSL), in addition to the good experience we gained through the implementation of many projects in other sectors such as Education, Protection, Early recovery and Shelter and Non-food items.
All Silk Road's activities are guided by the four humanitarian principles: Humanity, Neutrality, Impartiality and Independence, and these principles provide the foundations for humanitarian action and govern the conduct of all humanitarian workers at Silk Road.
