Le Conseil danois pour les réfugiés porte assistance aux réfugiés et aux personnes déplacées à travers le monde : nous fournissons une aide d’urgence à ces personnes, nous combattons pour leurs droits et nous renforçons leurs opportunités pour un meilleur futur. Nous travaillons dans des zones affectées par les conflits, ainsi que le long des routes de déplacements, et au sein des pays dans lesquels les réfugiés s’établissent. En coopération avec les communautés locales, nous nous efforçons d’atteindre des solutions responsables et durables. Nous travaillons pour une intégration réussie des communautés vulnérables et, lorsque cela est possible, à la réalisation de leur souhait de retour chez eux.
Le Conseil danois pour les réfugiés (ci-après : DRC, pour Danish Refugee Council) a été fondé au Danemark en 1956 et est depuis devenu une organisation humanitaire internationale avec plus de 7,000 employés et de 8,000 volontaires. Ayant son siège établi à Copenhague, et présent dans 40 pays, le DRC est une organisation d’aide non gouvernementale, à but non-lucratif, politiquement neutre et indépendante et non-confessionnelle.
Notre vision est une vie avec dignité pour toutes les personnes déplacées dans le monde. Tous nos efforts reposent sur notre boussole morale : l’humanité, le respect, l’indépendance, la neutralité, la participation, l’honnêteté et la transparence.
