NRC is an independent humanitarian organization that helps people who are forced to flee. We provide assistance to meet immediate humanitarian needs, prevent further displacement, and support displaced people as they build a new future. Around 15,000 humanitarians work with the NRC. Most of us are hired locally to work in the field, and a small number are based at our head office in Oslo, Norway. Many of our colleagues were once themselves fleeing their homes. In 2022, we reached almost 10 million people across 40 countries.
