Prince Rahim al-Hussaini Aga Khan V pledged €100 million over two years on behalf of the Ismaili Imamat and the Aga Khan Development Network (AKDN) to address Syria’s urgent humanitarian and development needs. In his address at the European Commission’s ninth annual conference, “Standing with Syria: Meeting the Needs for a Successful Transition,” His Highness emphasised the importance of supporting Syria’s recovery and addressing its critical challenges. As Syria approaches a pivotal moment in its recovery, the role of organisations like the AKDN, alongside global actors, will be crucial in fostering resilience and rebuilding trust among the population. The conference and subsequent initiatives signify a strong commitment to not only addressing the immediate humanitarian crisis but also laying the groundwork for a more peaceful and prosperous Syria.
