Following Azerbaijan’s military attack on September 19 2023, more than 100,000 refugees were forced to flee from their homes in Artsakh to Armenia. Our brothers and sisters fled with just the few possessions they were able to grab, and arrived distressed, exhausted and anxious about their uncertain future. Many families from Artsakh needed immediate critical support as soon as they arrived in Syunik. We at SYUN collaborating with our partners at VAL responded to this emergency situation by converting our Emergency Response Training Center in Goris (ERTC) to a refugee camp. Here is how we were able to help our people in need:

 Our refugee camp was operating for 30 days.

 100 people stayed in the camp during that period.

 3 families were provided with new homes.

 1 family will live in their new home for free for a year..

 24 hours special rapid response team. was on duty in the camp.
