World Humanitarian Day

 

On 19th of August, we mark World Humanitarian Day. We pay tribute to humanitarian and health workers who help people affected by conflicts and crises.

This year's global campaign, led by the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA), focuses on "Families of Fallen Humanitarians", highlighting the personal stories of aid workers through the voices of families, loved ones, and the communities they left behind.

The Czech Republic stands with those who provide assistance in the most difficult conditions, often at the risk of their own lives.
