The Norwegian Refugee Council (NRC) is a leading independent humanitarian organization dedicated to helping people forced to flee their homes due to conflict, natural disasters, or other crises. Since its inception after World War Two, NRC has been committed to protecting displaced people and supporting them as they rebuild their lives. With operations in over 40 countries, NRC specializes in six key areas: food security, education, shelter, legal assistance, protection from violence, and water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH).
Our work is rooted in advocating for the rights and dignity of displaced people, promoting their voices in local communities, national governments, and on the international stage. Through NRC's Internal Displacement Monitoring Centre in Geneva, we lead global efforts in monitoring, reporting on, and advocating for internally displaced persons. Additionally, our global provider of humanitarian, development, and peacebuilding expertise, NORCAP, collaborates with various partners to find sustainable solutions for people at risk.
In 2023, NRC assisted nearly 10 million people worldwide. To continue our mission and expand our reach, we need dedicated individuals who are passionate about making a difference.
