At a time when more than a 100 million people have fled war and conflict, and tens of millions more flee climate driven disasters, collaboration across sectors is vital. NRC’s private sector partnerships is an exchange of expertise where businesses and corporations play an important role in humanitarian response. In our shared commitment, we strive for innovative solutions to empower people who have been forced to flee, helping them build a sustainable future for themselves and their communities.

Om oss
Flyktninghjelpen er en norsk organisasjon som hjelper mennesker på flukt over hele verden. Vi er raskt på plass der mennesker på flukt trenger oss mest. Vi vet hva som må gjøres, og vi gjør det. Vi får fram hjelpen der nøden er størst. Da vi startet hjelpearbeidet etter andre verdenskrig, var behovet enormt. Det er det fortsatt. I over 75 år har vi jobbet utrettelig for at mennesker på flukt skal overleve og bygge seg en ny framtid. Akkurat nå er vi til stede i både nye og langvarige kriser i 40 land. Der er vi en synlig og anerkjent aktør under navnet Norwegian Refugee Council (NRC). Vi gir blant annet mat, husly, rent vann, rettshjelp, og utdanning. Vi står på flyktningenes side. Med erfaring, kunnskap og pågangsmot forsvarer vi rettighetene til mennesker på flukt, og varsler om urett og nød. Flyktninghjelpen er en sterk pådriver for at makthavere skal respektere flyktningers rettigheter. I tillegg driver vi Internal Displacement Monitoring Centre (IDMC), verdens fremste faktabase om mennesker som er på flukt i eget land. Vi samarbeider med partnere over hele verden gjennom våre folk i NORCAP som har ekspertise innen humanitært arbeid, utviklingsarbeid og fredsbygging. De jobber med lokale, nasjonale og internasjonale partnere for å finne bærekraftige løsninger for å møte behovene til mennesker på flukt. Flyktninghjelpen har 15.000 hjelpearbeidere over hele verden. En liten andel jobber på hovedkontoret i Oslo, men de aller fleste av oss jobber ute i felt. Mange har selv vært på flukt. I dag er 108 millioner mennesker på flukt fra krig og forfølgelse, et rekordhøyt antall. Ikke siden andre verdenskrig har flere trengt vår hjelp. Flyktninghjelpen hjalp nær 10 millioner mennesker verden over i 2022, og med din støtte kan vi nå ut til enda flere.

Hélène is 70 years old and lives in the Central African Republic (CAR). Two years ago, she fled her village after her house was burnt down. She arrived in Bocaranga, a town in north-western CAR, and survived thanks to her family's solidarity. It was her relatives who lent her the shelter where she lives today. She is one of almost 350,000 people who are displaced in the CAR. To earn enough to feed her four children and grandchildren, she collects firewood from a nearby forest. With support from partners, we are helping Hélène to construct a sustainable home for her family and is providing financial support to pay for her children's schooling.

We invite the private sector to get involved with our new initiative, the Capital Fund. The fund has an initial focus of replacing diesel generators with solar technology. By transitioning to solar power through this fund, we will enhance the impact of our humanitarian work. This shift will help us reduce costs, mitigate risks, and lower our carbon footprint, ensuring that we provide more reliable and environmentally friendly aid to people forced to flee. Learn more in the video below, and if you want to be part of this initiative, please reach out to [email protected] for further details. https://lnkd.in/daW4-Z9h ?utm_source=linkedin&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=brand
