The Hungary Helps Program

The Hungary Helps Program

 

The Hungary Helps Program is Hungary’s international humanitarian program. In 2017, the Hungarian government launched the Hungary Helps Program with the aim of providing effective support in crisis areas and areas hit by man-made or natural disasters.

The basic principle of the Hungary Helps Program is that help must be taken to where the trouble is. Along with this principle, not only humanitarian disasters in crisis areas can be mitigated, but the root causes of migration can also be eliminated. In the last four years, the Hungary Helps Program has enabled more than 400,000 people to stay in their homeland or its immediate region instead of migrating, which poses both security and health risks.
