The Danish Refugee Council (DRC) Tanzania is a humanitarian organization committed to protecting and assisting refugees, asylum seekers, and vulnerable host communities. DRC is part of the global Danish Refugee Council, an independent non-governmental organization founded in 1956, with operations in over 40 countries worldwide. In Tanzania, DRC has been actively involved for many years, particularly in regions hosting large numbers of displaced people, including Kigoma Region where the majority of refugees reside. Tanzania has historically been a host country for refugees fleeing conflicts from neighboring nations such as Burundi and the Democratic Republic of Congo. DRC plays a critical role in supporting the government of Tanzania, UN agencies, and local communities in addressing the needs of these populations. Its work is guided by core humanitarian principles of neutrality, impartiality, and accountability, with a strong emphasis on durable solutions and long-term resilience. DRC Tanzania’s interventions focus on several key areas, including protection, shelter, livelihoods, food security, water and sanitation, and education. The organization also works on capacity-building initiatives to strengthen community resilience and promote peaceful coexistence between refugees and host communities. Particular attention is given to vulnerable groups such as women, children, and people with disabilities, ensuring that their rights and safety are prioritized. Through its dedicated staff, partnerships, and community-driven initiatives, the Danish Refugee Council Tanzania continues to make a significant impact, fostering dignity, safety, and hope for thousands of displaced people and vulnerable Tanzanians.
