About Us

The NGO Coordination Committee for Iraq (NCCI) is a member-led NGO coordination platform and was founded in Baghdad in April 2003 by a group of international NGOs looking to establish a neutral, independent space for NGOs to coordinate humanitarian activities in Iraq. In 2005 it was decided to open up NCCI for local NGOs. Throughout the years NCCI’s mission, structure and objectives continuously evolved to adapt to the changing circumstances in Iraq. As the main NGO coordination body in Iraq NCCI has three strategic objectives: coordination and information sharing, advocacy, and support services and capacity building for NGOs. NCCI has two main offices in Iraq (Erbil and Baghdad) and suboffices in Basrah and Geneva (Switzerland).
