 * the refugee project

 Background

The Refugee Project was sparked off by an inquiry from a 15-year-old youth after a church service to find out how he can serve or volunteer with Habibi Singapore among the refugees. The message preached during the service was about missions among marginalized communities and Habibi Singapore was cited as one local Christian NGO working among the internally displaced people in Iraq.

The inquiry from this youth brought to attention the lack of teaching and education about the global refugee crisis among youths aged 13-16. Sharing of the refugee crisis is mostly among young adults and older as they are deemed more mature and perhaps more ready and able to volunteer in some ways and perhaps one day serve a longer term in one of the refugee communities overseas. Perhaps what is needed is simply to bring to their awareness this global crisis through an intentional effort to inform and educate them.

It is our hope that through the Refugee Project, the youths will take a deeper interest in the global refugee crisis, have a better understanding of the complexities involved, be inspired to invest time and effort in their education and make vocational choices that will contribute to the transformation of mindsets to help refugees.

 More About Habibi



“Habibi” is a commonly used term of endearment across the Middle East that means “my beloved”. It is a reminder of how relationships are at the heart of all that we do, and that love should drive our actions. This is even more crucial in the contexts we serve in. We are committed to the transformation of the lives of refugees and internally displaced persons in the Middle East.
