Aga Khan Agency for Habitat, Syria (AKAH) is an agency of the Aga Khan Development Network (AKDN), which is a group of development agencies with mandates that include the environment, health, education, architecture, culture, microfinance, rural development, disaster reduction, and the promotion of private-sector enterprise and the revitalization of historic cities. AKDN agencies conduct their programmers without regard to faith, origin, or gender.
A new agency, the Aga Khan Agency for the Habitat (AKAH), works to ensure that people live in physical settings that are as safe as possible from the effects of natural disasters and that residents who do live in such high-risk areas can cope with disasters in terms of preparedness and response, and that these settings provide access to social and financial services that lead to more significant opportunities and a better quality of life. The new agency merges the activities of the Aga Khan Planning and Building Services with its prize-winning water and sanitation programs and low-cost habitat products, such as smoke-free stoves; the humanitarian arm of AKDN, FOCUS, which promotes disaster mitigation and resiliency and intervenes after disasters; the AKDN’s Disaster Risk Management Initiative, which focuses on disaster preparedness in remote areas; and the environment- and habitat-related activities of the Aga Khan Foundation, including the Prince Sadruddin Fund for the Environment and the Foundation’s highly regarded rural support programs.
