Map of Baghdad.

UMCOR's partner ACT is working through local member Middle East Council of Churches (MECC) and other ACT members with longstanding commitments to the people of the Middle East. Through local churches and mosques, the MECC has established at least eight major relief centers and 44 smaller centers where people can seek refuge (see map). The centers are concentrated around four cities: Baghdad, Kirkuk, Mosul and Basra.
