Announcement Description

Basic information about PIN

People in Need (PIN) was established in 1992 by a group of Czech war correspondents who were no longer satisfied with merely relaying information about ongoing conflicts and began sending out aid. It gradually became established as a professional humanitarian organization striving to provide aid in troubled regions and support adherence to human rights around the world.

People in Need is a Czech non-governmental organization providing relief and development assistance while working to defend human rights and democratic freedoms in over 40 countries around the world. Throughout the 30 years of its existence, People in Need has become one of the biggest non-profit organizations in Central Europe. In addition to humanitarian aid and human rights, it now also targets education and helps people living in social exclusion.

Basic Information about PIN Cambodia

PIN has been operating in Cambodia since 2008 providing development and emergency assistance in rural and urban areas, specifically in three main sectors: environmentally friendly market development for improved livelihoods, climate resilience and disaster risk reduction, as well as inclusive employment.
