Nour Sabah applies makeup to Merna Jora during a session of a skills-training program for Iraqi refugee women sponsored by the Greek Orthodox Patriarchate of Antioch and All The East in Damascus, Syria. Although Syria officially forbids Iraqi refugees from working, many earn precious income in the informal economy. Action by Churches Together supports the work of the Greek Orthodox Patriarchate in providing skills training and other essential services to Iraqi refugees.
