Shar for Development was established as an endeavour to reach peaceful, stable, and culturally, economically, and politically developing societies dominated by the values of cooperation, teamwork, enjoyment of public freedoms, and respect for transparency and institutional work.
Shar works through interactive and deep programs that relate the qualification to the requirements of reality and support programs to activate democratic means in administration and society such as freedom of information, empowering women, activating their participation, supporting and promoting economic and environmental development, activating youth energies, establishing a culture of volunteering and civic education and rationalising the support provided based on setting priorities and size of the impact.
Since establishment in November 2013, Shar addresses the overwhelming needs of the conflict-affected population in Syria and the neighbouring countries.

We seek peaceful, stable, culturally, economically and politically developing societies dominated by the values of cooperation, teamwork, enjoyment of public freedoms, respect for transparency and institutional work, reaching a developmental state at all levels.
