Humanitarian Assistance

Since 1997, Counterpart International (Counterpart) has provided over $65 million in humanitarian relief commodities to the vulnerable populations in Azerbaijan. The largest population that Counterpart assists is the internally displaced persons (IDPs). There are over half a million IDPs in Azerbaijan, many of whom are in desperate and constant need of blankets, hygiene supplies, beds, and other basic items. Counterpart also supplies hospitals that serve this population with necessary medical commodities. Additionally, Counterpart serves the needs of persons with disabilities, orphans and medical institutions.

Community and Humanitarian Assistance Program:
CHAP is a US State Department-funded, rapid response humanitarian commodity distribution program that addresses critical needs of vulnerable populations. Food, clothing, bedding, hospital equipment, hospital supplies and pharmaceuticals are donated to the target groups.

Small Reconstruction Projects (SRPs) are short-term, small-scale renovations of facilities that serve a humanitarian purpose, such as orphanages, hospitals, and schools.  Counterpart works with local partners to plan and execute projects that make concrete, measurable improvements in the lives of those affected.
