The International Rescue Committee provides vital support to people in Italy whose lives and livelihoods have been devastated by conflict and disaster. We operate a variety of programs across Italy with a strong focus on supporting vulnerable populations, including refugees, asylum seekers, women and children.

Each year, millions of people—particularly women and children—are subject to violence and abuse, and struggle to feel safe in their homes and communities. Trapped in countries plagued by crisis, many cannot access the resources they need to protect them, recover from abuse, and ensure their own safety.
