Help Kurdistan is an independent charity foundation registered in Sweden in accordance with Swedish law for charity foundations (Stiftelselagen). The purpose is to be a crisis and catastrophe organization for all parts of Kurdistan. We aim to be the first organization with boots on the ground when a crisis or catastrophe occurs in Kurdistan, both man-made and nature disaster. We also aim to prepare for coming events trough simulation training and catastrophe plans for different parts of Kurdistan. Beyond being a crisis and catastrophe organization we aim to contribute to democratization and reform of Kurdistan through help to the education sector and health care sector.
