\n What does Polish Humanitarian Action do? <\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\n

We have been providing humanitarian aid for more than 30 years. Since then we have been present in 52 countries. We are there where support is needed most. We respond to sudden humanitarian crises: natural disasters and armed conflicts, but in addition to immediate assistance, we also look for long-term solutions. Each time, we tailor our projects to local needs and challenges, because we believe that this is the only way to deliver aid that is truly effective. We act with respect for the principles of humanitarianism, impartiality, neutrality and independence.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/section>\n

\n
\n
\n How does PAH finance its activities? <\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\n

Our activities are possible thanks to the support of institutional donors, business partners, as well as individuals, i.e. our donors and contributors. Without the support of our committed community, we would not be able to reach so many places with aid!<\/span><\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/section>[\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row_content_no_spaces”][vc_column]\n

\n
\n What does PAH do? <\/div>\n
\n Humanitarian aid is the response to various crises - from armed conflict to sudden natural disasters. It aims to meet the basic needs of those affected, such as access to food, water, shelter and healthcare. It is divided into areas (so-called clusters) in which individual organisations specialize. Polish Humanitarian Action currently operates in the following areas: <\/div>\n <\/div>\n

\r\n Emergency response <\/div>\r\n
\r\n <\/div>\r\n
\r\n
\r\n

When an armed conflict breaks out or a natural disaster strikes, the local community is not always able to react to the crisis on its own. State authorities do not have sufficient funds, and the people afflicted by disaster suddenly lose their possessions and are deprived of access to safe drinking water and other resources that they might find useful in a crisis. PAH then provides humanitarian aid – learn more about our activities<\/span><\/p>\n <\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n

Water is essential for every aspect of human life. Our health and physical well-being depend on its purity and accessibility. We need water not only for drinking. It is necessary for preparing meals, practicing good personal hygiene and keeping our households clean. Limited access to water can affect our educational and career opportunities.

Natural disasters and armed conflicts have a direct impact on access to food.
