Eu fund and call for proposals for humanitarian
The European Union’s mandate to ECHO is made to provide emergency assistance and relief to the victims of natural disasters or armed conflicts outside the European Union. The aid is intended to go directly to those in distress, irrespective of race, religion or political convictions.
The legal basis for this activity is set out under Article 18 of the Humanitarian Regulation: the Commission is required to "regularly assess humanitarian aid operations financed by the Community in order to establish whether they have achieved their objectives and to produce guidelines for improving the effectiveness of subsequent operations."
ECHO’s task is to ensure goods and services get to crisis zones fast. Goods may include essential supplies, specific foodstuffs, medical equipment, medicines and fuel. Services may include medical teams, water purification teams and logistical support. Goods and services reach disaster areas via ECHO partners. ECHO works with about 200 non-governmental organisations, United Nations agencies and international organisations such as the International Committee of the Red Cross and the International Federation of the Red Cross and the Red Crescent Societies.
Since 1992, ECHO has funded humanitarian aid in more than 85 countries. Its grants cover emergency aid, food aid and aid to refugees and displaced persons
But ECHO does more than just funding humanitarian aid:
- It carries out feasibility studies for its humanitarian operations,
- It monitors humanitarian projects and sets up coordination arrangements,
- It promotes and coordinates disaster prevention measures by training specialists, strengthening institutions and running pilot micro-projects,
- It gives its partners technical assistance,
- It raises public awareness about humanitarian issues in Europe and elsewhere, through actions carried out directly by ECHO in order to promote the awareness of humanitarian aid,
- It finances network and training study initiatives in the humanitarian field (NOHA).
