At any given time, we are responding to over 30 emergency situations. We provide life-saving essentials in the immediate aftermath of a natural disaster and to people affected by conflict, as well as long-term development support. You can help.
We work in more than 90 countries, with programs in Africa, the Middle East, Latin America, across Asia and in parts of Eastern Europe.
We help people caught up in natural disasters and conflicts across the world with clean water, food, sanitation and protection. At any given time, we are responding to over 30 emergency situations, giving life-saving support to those most in need.
Millions of people are being forced from their homes, risking everything to escape conflict, disaster, poverty or hunger. From those fleeing the war in Syria or climate change-induced droughts, to those stranded in inadequate conditions in Europe, you can help us give life-saving support to refugees in the countries where they need it most.
With no end in sight to the conflict in Syria, hundreds of thousands of people are living in desperate conditions and exposed to continuing violence. Today, half the pre-conflict population of 22 million Syrians have fled their homes and more than 13 million people urgently need your help.
Yemen is on the brink of famine after three years of devastating conflict. So far thousands of people have been killed and over 3 million forced to flee their homes. More than half of the country is without enough to eat. We are delivering emergency aid but we urgently need your help to do more. Please donate.
All around the world, millions of small-scale farmers, fishers and workers endure inhumane conditions to produce the food we all eat. We can change this. Join us and help us reveal what is behind the price of the food we buy. Together, we can tackle this injustice and help stop the human suffering behind our food.
Our commitment to safeguarding
How we are protecting those we work with.
To protect our staff and the people we work with, we’re further increasing investment in safeguarding and pushing harder than ever to change our culture.
Happy World Food Day! While a great time to celebrate our victuals, it’s also a good moment to stop and think about the people who grow it - and take steps to end the suffering behind our food.
