Company Description
The Danish Refugee Council (DRC) is a non-governmental organization that provides assistance and protection to refugees and internally displaced persons around the world. Founded in 1956, the DRC works in over 30 countries to provide humanitarian aid and support to those who have been forced to flee their homes due to conflict, persecution, or natural disasters.
One of the core principles of the DRC is its commitment to providing impartial and neutral assistance to those in need, regardless of their race, religion, or political affiliation. The organization works to ensure that refugees and displaced persons have access to basic necessities such as food, shelter, clean water, and healthcare.
In addition to providing emergency relief, the DRC also works to help refugees rebuild their lives and regain their independence. This includes providing education and vocational training programs, as well as assistance with finding employment and integrating into their new communities.
The DRC also places a strong emphasis on advocacy and promoting the rights of refugees and displaced persons. The organization works to raise awareness about the causes of displacement and the challenges faced by refugees, and to advocate for policies that protect their rights and ensure their well-being.
In recent years, the DRC has been involved in responding to some of the world’s most pressing humanitarian crises, including the Syrian refugee crisis, the Rohingya refugee crisis in Myanmar, and the conflict in South Sudan. The organization works tirelessly to provide assistance to those affected by these crises, and to ensure that refugees are able to access the support and protection they need.
