Cordaid
Dutch aid organization
1,2 billion people are directly affected by war, fragility and natural disasters. But the indirect impact of fragility is much bigger. More than 2 billion people live in countries where development is seriously impacted by fragility, conflict and violence. Cordaid does not accept this world of inequality, exclusion and unsustainability. We envisage a world where the basics of a life in dignity are available to all. Where the poorest and the excluded can influence the decisions that affect them. Where each person is free to flourish and can live in peace. Cordaid works in the world’s most fragile countries and accomplishes its goals by linking relief and development. Wherever we can we combine lifesaving humanitarian aid with the longer-term improvement of health care systems, economic opportunities and disaster resilience, and the promotion of security and justice.

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.
