LWF World Service is the humanitarian and development arm of the Lutheran World Federation. We are a widely recognized, international, faith-based organization working in over 20 countries. We seek to unite people of all backgrounds in the quest for justice, peace, and reconciliation in an increasingly complex and fragmented world.
A commitment to the human rights of every individual, regardless of their status, guides our work, actions, and operations. We are particularly known for our timely, compassionate, and professional humanitarian work and our field presence in hard-to-reach areas. Our work is people-centered and community-based. Above all, we work with the most vulnerable, and to claim and uphold their rights, we engage proactively with local government and community structures.www.lutheranworld.org/WorldService.
LWF has been actively operating in Syria since 2019 mainly supporting refugees. Since then, LWF activities have been focused on marginalized communities by strengthening their resilience, Health, social cohesion, and fostering sustainable livelihoods. We provide protection and humanitarian services across various sectors, including Individual Counseling, Group Therapy, Community-Based Activities, Awareness Raising, Child and Youth Programs, and Capacity Building.
We offer our services to all people, regardless of their ethnicity, gender, religion, race, or political affiliations.
