Since its founding in 2001, IsraAID has worked in emergency and long-term development settings in more than 62 countries around the world. IsraAID responds to emergencies and helps people affected by crises rebuild their lives, their communities, and their futures. From hurricanes to refugee crises to global pandemics, IsraAID mobilizes quickly and collaborates with communities at the grassroots level, staying for as long as it takes.

IsraAID’s Approach
IsraAID collaborates with stakeholders in impacted communities in an approach it calls ‘Communities First.’ The communities IsraAID work with supply local knowledge, experience, peoplepower, and tools. IsraAID delivers the technologies, resources, and long-developed professional expertise (oftentimes from Israel, which has vast experience with trauma, water scarcity, disaster relief and preparedness, and recovery).
IsraAID’s Areas of Expertise
- Protection IsraAID prioritizes the psychological, emotional, and social needs of communities, both during an emergency and in the months and years that follow.
- Education Global education work focuses on disaster risk reduction, psychosocial support within education systems, and access to education.
- Water, Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH) IsraAID’s water engineers and WASH specialists provide sustainable solutions in partnership with local communities around the world.
- Health and Medical Care IsraAID deploys medical teams after disasters and works to strengthen communities’ public health infrastructures.
IsraAID’s Areas of Activity
- Emergency Response From the moment IsraAID arrives somewhere that has been torn apart by disaster, it hits the ground running. IsraAID keeps its Emergency Response teams small and nimble to give them the speed needed to help affected communities get back on their feet. Each response is implemented with local partners, and the first step is always to listen to affected communities with the intention of co-creating solutions.
- Recovery and Preparedness Whether it’s disaster risk reduction, child protection, or hygiene promotion, IsraAID builds sustainable, practical, and realistic solutions that communities can believe in and embrace for the long term — solutions that tap into the communities’ inner reserves of strength and resilience to allow them to take back ownership of their lives and futures.
- Refugees and Forced Migration IsraAID’s work with refugees begins with emergency relief, before shifting towards promoting longer term integration and resilience. IsraAID focuses on empowering displaced communities and always includes refugees as integral members of its teams to assist with running sustainable programs that build resilience, combat gender-based violence, advance child protection, improve sanitation, and offer livelihood opportunities.
