About People in Need

People in Need (PIN) is a Czech NGO founded 1992. PIN is currently the largest NGO in Central and Eastern Europe, working in 20 countries in Eastern Europe, Asia and Africa, in both humanitarian and development actions. PIN helps people in emergencies, both in crises of war as well as in areas affected by natural disasters, and in places where it is hard for people to break out of the vicious circle of poverty without support.

Development cooperation and humanitarian work comprises efforts to help people in their attempts to escape poverty and ensure further development. PIN is member of “Alliance 2015” (www.alliance2015.org)

Background:

During the last two years, in Ethiopia, droughts caused by insufficient and/or delayed rains, have severely affected different regions of the country, resulting into wide humanitarian crises. In late 2016, the Indian Ocean Dipole negative atmospheric phenomenon followed El Niño atmospheric phenomenon (summer 2015 / spring 2016). While many areas of the country still did not recover completely by the emergency caused by El Niño (mainly in the northern and central regions), in December 2016, the Ethiopian Humanitarian Country team (EHCT) has estimated that over additional 5 million people are seriously at risk in the southern areas of Ethiopia, mainly pastoralist and agro-pastoralist areas.

In Ethiopia, PIN has been operating continuously since 2003. Working in five regions and focusing mainly on WASH, Education, Agriculture/Environment, Social inclusion and protection. Currently, PIN is implementing 12 projects funded by different donors in both emergency and development interventions.
