Action Contre La Faim
 France  |  Humanitarian Aid

To enable beneficiaries to regain their autonomy and self-sufficiency as quickly as possible.

Action contre la Faim is a non-governmental, non-political, non-religious, non-profit organisation. It was established in France in 1979 to deliver aid in countries throughout the world. The aim of Action against Hunger is to save lives by combating hunger and diseases that threaten the lives of vulnerable children, women, and men. Action against Hunger is now recognised as one of the leading organisations in the fight against hunger worldwide. There are multiple causes of hunger : natural catastrophes, conflicts, epidemics or poverty. Our objective is to combat this scourge on every front: with emergency operations, meeting the vital needs of the most vulnerable, and with post-emergency programmes to promote people’s autonomy. Action contre la Faim brings assistance either during the crisis itself through emergency interventions, or afterwards through rehabilitation and sustainable development programmes. Action contre la Faim also intervenes to prevent certain high-risk situations.
