Haiti, Lebanon, Mali, Mozambique, Palestine, Syria
Our collaboration with DG ECHO dates back to 1992, when we signed our Framework Partnership Agreement. to work on Palestine together. More than 30 years later, in 2023 and 2024, we worked together in 5 countries – Haiti, Lebanon, Mali, Mozambique, Palestine and Syria - with 7 projects in response to emergencies while enhancing the following domains of change:
In total, in 2023 and 2024, together with DG ECHO and our 8 partners, we have reached 570.239 people in vulnerable conditions, 76% of whom are women and children.

In the projects we carry out together with the DG ECHO, we want to put the people we work for and with at the center of the story, highlighting the specificities of the contexts where we intervene. For this reason, we develop diverse communication products in multiple languages, so as to reach a variety of audiences and bring them closer to the reality of areas isolated from the spotlight of the European and international media.
Here are some examples of these products:
