Intersos

INTERSOS is a non-profit humanitarian aid organization that works to bring assistance to people in danger, victims of natural disasters and armed conflicts. Established in 1992 with support from the Italian Federation of Trade Unions, its actions are based on the values of solidarity, justice, human dignity, equal rights and opportunities for all people and respect for diversity and coexistence, paying particular attention to the most vulnerable and the unprotected.

Our mission is to give an immediate response in humanitarian crises by bringing emergency relief to the victims of armed conflict, drought, famine, the presence of landmines or unexploded devices, and other disaster situations; at the same time provide primary emergency relief and begin working to promote a return to normal living conditions, to start a dialogue and consolidate peace, reconstruction and development; to stimulate, encourage and involve Italian society in helping to develop and spread the existing culture of solidarity and international justice.
