Humanitarian Relief

iyadim2.jpg

One tenth of the world's population struggles with hunger due to war, drought, economic and political instability. IHH delivers in-kind and cash donations made throughout the year to those in need around the world on behalf of donors.

The purpose of humanitarian aid and the definition of the concept of humanitarian aid have been addressed by the United Nations. The aim of humanitarian aid is to prevent a large number of deaths and to restore the situation after a disaster. Humanitarian aid is also defined as material and logistical support to people in need. In summary, humanitarian aid is a type of aid that usually belongs to the homeless, refugees, victims of natural disasters, people in need in wars or famines.

Millions of people in the world are forced to migrate due to war, conflict, drought, natural disasters and other reasons. These migrations bring with them very serious and major shelter problems. In Arakan alone, 900 thousand people have been displaced.

While carrying out its activities, IHH prioritises the development of the sense of solidarity, solidarity and brotherhood in Turkey and all over the world. It produces social and cultural projects for this purpose. The Foundation undertakes the task of being a pioneer and role model for the development of non-governmental organisations operating in the regions where there is victimisation and builds permanent works such as schools, orphanages, mosques, water wells, cultural centres, health centres and hospitals to serve the people of the region.

IHH works for the construction and repair of educational institutions such as schools, madrasahs, institutes in regions where education is interrupted and facilities cannot meet the needs, supporting them in terms of tools and equipment, ensuring that students in crisis regions receive education in Turkey or other countries, and preparing professional development programmes for educators. IHH carries out activities such as providing written and visual materials, establishing cultural centres, building places of worship, organising vocational courses, translating scientific works, and establishing publishing organs for the regions that need support.

IHH's humanitarian aid efforts aim to reach out to the families who have been victimised by war, civil conflict, earthquake, flood, tsunami, fire, landslide, drought, epidemic disease, poverty, famine, etc., who are struggling for their lives and who are disappearing every day due to unstoppable wars.

Emergency aid activities constitute an important pillar of IHH's activities in the field of humanitarian aid. In addition to meeting the urgent needs of the victimised people, informing the world public opinion against a possible conflict, crisis and war situation, and carrying out activities to prevent crises are at the heart of IHH's humanitarian aid activities.
