The Ministry for Foreign Affairs of Finland has granted Fida 20.8 million euros for development cooperation and 3.5 million euros for humanitarian assistance for the years 2026–2029.
Fida’s humanitarian work to support people living amid conflict in Yemen is back on track. After nearly a year-long pause, the programme has received new funding and resumed operations.
Fida is expanding its humanitarian operations in Myanmar. Large-scale food distributions and cash assistance will begin in June in the regions of Kachin, Yangon and Bago.
Fida has begun distributing humanitarian aid in Myanmar. “Help is urgently needed,” says Regional Director Jukka Tasanen, who has previously lived in the country and is coordinating the relief efforts.
