Africa Humanitarian Action
Based in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, African Humanitarian Action (AHA) carries out humanitarian aid and development activities in 12 African countries, including Angola, Burundi, Chad, Congo (DR), Ethiopia, Guinea (Rep.), Liberia, Namibia, Rwanda, Sudan, Uganda and Zambia. AHA provides emergency relief services, fights diseases of poverty, notably HIV, Tuberculosis and Malaria, and works to develop local capacity and disaster response mechanisms. AHA provides emergency, health and social services to refugees in partnership with UNHCR and others.
In December 2004, AHA, in collaboration with the African Union (AU), organised an international symposium on “Building the Capacity and Resources of African Non-Governmental Organisations” in Addis Ababa. AHA, in co-operation with African and international non-governmental organisations and others will launch a platform for African humanitarian collaboration called the African Centre for Humanitarian Action in November 2005.
AHA is a member of Alnap and the Sphere project
