The IHH Humanitarian Relief Foundation, which builds lasting structures and carries out restoration projects in various regions around the world, recently held the opening ceremony for the Yakıf El Ades Middle School in Aleppo, Syria, which it had restored. The school, which was renovated by the IHH Ankara Branch and features 10 classrooms, will provide educational opportunities for 400 children in the region who have struggled to access education.

There are many schools in need of repair

Due to the civil war in Syria from 2011 to 2024, 1,018 of the 4,000 schools in the districts and neighborhoods of Aleppo province were completely destroyed, while the majority of the remaining schools sustained damage. Repairing these schools and restoring them for educational use is of great importance.
