Norwegian Church Aid

Norwegian Church Aid (Kirkens Nødhjelp) is a non-governmental, ecumenical organisation that works to promote the basic rights of human beings.

Norwegian Church Aid (NCA) is rooted in the Christian faith.  Nonetheless, we support those who need it most, irrespective of gender, political conviction, religion and ethnic origin.  Norwegian churches and congregations make up the constituency of NCA.  In order to achieve lasting results we cooperate with church-based and other local organisations through long-term development projects, emergency preparedness and response and advocacy.

In an emergency situation it is extremely important to react quickly and cooperate closely with other organisations to ensure the right assistance is delivered to the right place.  NCA works closely with the ACT Alliance network, United Nations (UN) and other humanitarian actors to ensure that a timely and appropriate response is delivered when disaster strikes.
