This paper examines the negative impacts of relying on the shrinking fund available for volunteer teams in oppositon held areas in North West Syria.
This paper is part of the a series research papers conducted by Door under the title of: Assessing the Functionality of Partnership at Empowering Youth in Syria; the partnerhsips between volunteer teams and the funding organizations.
Mythodology:
The study developed a semi-structured interview tool for qualitative data collection from volunteer teams in NWS, undergoing internal testing and pilot interviews. The research team conducted 25 physical interviews, ensuring diversity in gender, team age, members, and financial support received. Initial data analysis led to conduct six focused discussion sessions with new team representatives that were also analyised. The paper includes quotes from interviews and discussions to amplify the voices of Syrian youth volunteers, enriching the discourse on partnerships within the Syrian context.
