Welcome HOME. The HOME (DOM) platform is, above all, about meeting another human being – here we present the stories of people we have encountered while carrying out the work of Polish Humanitarian Action in different corners of the world.
This is a space where we give them a voice, so they can tell their own stories in their own words. Their experiences are an invitation into their home and their world – often very different from what we know in our daily lives.
HOME is an initiative of Polish Humanitarian Action. PAH is an organization that for thirty years has been providing humanitarian and development assistance to people affected by the consequences of conflicts and disasters. Here, we want to give the floor to those who receive our support – people who, often in very difficult circumstances, have to rebuild their world from scratch.
We believe that learning about these stories helps us understand how many different factors contribute to humanitarian crises. We also want to show that in order to counteract them and mitigate their consequences, we need knowledge of global processes as well as a sense of shared responsibility and solidarity. That is why the HOME platform brings together all the actions we have carried out and those we plan to undertake in one place. We also include information about projects and reports from other organizations and individuals that are worth exploring.
It is a home we are building together. Take from it whatever you may find useful and lay down strong foundations for human understanding. Under each article you will find links that allow you to share the content and photos. By sharing knowledge with others, you add your own brick to building a better world.
