District Supervisor

Hungarian International Aid, founded in 1991, is one of Hungary’s largest humanitarian organizations that also has gained international recognition. Through its expanding community of experts, volunteers, donors and corporate partners, HIA-Hungary assists those in distress and deprivation. Regardless of nationality, religion and ideology, HIA-Hungary provides assistance to those in need in Hungary and in the international arena as a member of the international community in accordance with the strictest professional and transparency rules.

OBJECTIVES – Assistance to those in need: HIA-Hungary’s objective is to deliver quick, professional and effective assistance to crisis victims of natural and man-made disasters. Fight against poverty: HIA-Hungary’s objective is to offer not only emergency assistances but also provide chances to break out of poverty for people who are ready to take action to promote their catching up. Stronger social solidarity​: HIA-Hungary’s objective is to strengthen social solidarity through creating a culture of volunteering and giving.

Since 2001, HIA has been implementing humanitarian and development programmes in Afghanistan. In addition to humanitarian aid, our objective is to achieve, through our permanent local office, long-term sustainable results in the areas of education, rural development, public administration development, health and capacity building. In partnership with United Nations World Food Program (WFP), we deliver thousands of tons of food each year through “emergency humanitarian assistances” and “food for work” programmes to those in need. In the complex food programmes, we help the population to make a long-term sustainable living through income-generating training, agricultural, water management and infrastructural developments.
