As the war in Syria and resulting humanitarian crisis continue, funder concern grows over how to act. Join us for the first of a two-part webinar series updating funders on the situation for Syria and its refugees. Part 1 will update funders overall on the crisis, the current political landscape in the US and Europe, and the dangers of inadequately responding. Part 2 will discuss how funders can fill gaps and engage through direct assistance, systems, advocacy, and service. We will also explore how our friends in Israel have initiated many efforts in this crisis, and take the temperature of the incoming US administration regarding the Syrian crisis.
