About Us

İnsan Derneği (Human Association) is a humanitarian aid and development-focused non-governmental organisation, founded in 2023 by the members of its authorised boards as a result of their volunteer-based solidarity work and more than 20 years of service in various civil society organisations.

Our association began its activities with the aim of supporting people in need in every region of the world, and first started work for the people of Gaza, who have been forced to live under blockade for years. The developments that followed the Al-Aqsa Flood operation of 7 October 2023 left our association with no choice but to make Gaza the sole focus of its work.

Our organisational capacity in Gaza and the surrounding countries, our success in achieving results and our transparency have led many aid organisations from our country and from different countries around the world to carry out their projects concerning Palestinians together with us, and these joint efforts have quickly become the means of many good works being accomplished.

In the broadest terms, we set as our goals supporting disadvantaged groups in the regions where we operate, working through comprehensive humanitarian aid and development programmes, and working in cooperation with local and international civil society organisations.
