The International Campaign to Lift Sanctions on Syria

Advocate for the immediate issuance of expanded general licenses and a broad export license exception to enable critical aid flows and facilitate economic recovery.

Advocate for the immediate revocation of prohibitions against new investments in Syria and U.S. persons' export or supply of services to Syria. 

Raise public awareness about the urgent need to rebuild critical infrastructure and housing in Syria, restore basic services like electricity, and revive economic activity—all of which would facilitate the safe, voluntary, and dignified return of displaced Syrians—and the urgent need to remove or ease barriers to this, like sanctions.  

Work with various private and public actors to encourage involvement in Syria’s recovery and engage with policymakers, diplomats, international organizations, and other stakeholders to coordinate and harmonize efforts for sanctions relief. 

Repeal the Caesar Act through legislation and achieve the gradual lifting of all sanctions on Syria, including Syria’s designation by the U.S. as a State Sponsor of Terrorism.
