– Where we work

Iraq

The Lady Fatemah Trust is supporting communities across Iraq through practical projects that restore dignity and strengthen families, with a particular focus on mothers and children. In areas where households face economic pressure and limited opportunities, our work helps families access essential support while building pathways to long-term stability.

This includes Mothernomics, our flagship programme empowering mothers with transferable skills, confidence, and sustainable livelihoods, alongside wider community initiatives that help people rebuild, recover, and thrive.

Food aid & Community Support

In Iraq, many families, especially widowed mothers and households caring for orphans, are carrying the weight of loss, financial pressure, and limited opportunities. When income is unstable, even basic essentials like food, heating, school items, and healthcare can quickly become out of reach.

Alongside immediate support that helps families get through the hardest weeks, we also invest in pathways that restore dignity and independence. Through Mothernomics, our flagship programme, mothers are supported to rebuild confidence, develop transferable skills, and earn a sustainable income so they can provide for their children with stability and pride.

We also support vulnerable children, including orphans, with essentials that protect wellbeing and keep them connected to education and a safer future because every child deserves care, consistency, and hope.

Mothernomics: Empowering Mothers, Protecting Childhoods

Poverty isn’t only a lack of income, it’s a loss of options. When a mother has no secure way to earn, the whole household feels the impact, and children’s futures can become defined by survival instead of opportunity.

Mothernomics is our flagship programme supporting mothers to rebuild stability with dignity. Through skills development, confidence-building, and pathways into sustainable income, mothers gain the tools to provide for their families and regain their voice. The programme also champions sustainability, turning unused fabrics into products with purpose, creating livelihoods while reducing waste.

When a mother is supported, a child is supported too, with greater safety, stability, and the chance to grow up with hope.
