Organizational Update – Establishment & Preparatory Phase

Date: 7 January 2026

Keryo’s Hearth and Hope AISBL was officially established in Brussels, Belgium, by Royal Decree on 18 November 2025. The organization is currently in its institutional and operational preparation phase.

At this stage, our focus is on strengthening organizational structures, developing our digital presence, and preparing the foundations for transparent and accountable operations.

In parallel, we are engaging with non-governmental organizations and civil society partners to explore collaboration opportunities in north-east Syria, Iraq, and Ukraine. As part of this process, we are conducting initial field research and needs assessments to better understand community needs and ensure alignment with our mission and objectives.

We are also undertaking structured research on international donors and supporters, including institutions and foundations, to identify partnerships aligned with our strategic priorities.

A key priority during this phase is the establishment of our first operational presence in north-east Syria, alongside ongoing coordination with partner organizations in Iraq and Ukraine.

In line with our commitment to transparency, this page will be regularly updated as we progress toward full operational activities.
