Why set up a Syria Programme?
Caabu started a specific Syria programme in 2011 to highlight events in Syria, improve the understanding of the uprising and protests in the country, raise issues of human rights, and international law and the humanitarian situation.
It stems from the conviction that the situation in Syria poses a significant threat to the country, to the region and international peace and security.
