Amounts committed each year by the European Commission to the organisation (contracts and grants), from the EU Financial Transparency System. A commitment often covers several project years and, in consortia, may include shares of other partners. They are not income for the year and should not be compared directly with the accounts.
Humanitarian funding received
Main donors in the last 5 years
| Donor | USD | % |

| France, Government of | $6.2M | 100% |
Humanitarian funds (paid or committed) recorded by OCHA in the Financial Tracking Service, by year, with the donor that provided them: governments, UN agencies, pooled funds, foundations and other NGOs. They cover humanitarian aid only, not all of the organisation's work, and depend on what donors and organisations report to OCHA.
Data to be checked. Some figures on this page show inconsistencies, almost always due to filing or transcription errors in the source:
- 2020, 2021: income or expenditure changes more than tenfold from the previous year. It may be real growth or an error in the source; the value remains visible.
