About Company

Founded in 1956, DRC Danish Refugee Council is Denmark’s largest, and a leading international NGO – one of the few with a specific expertise in forced displacement. In 40 countries, our 8,000 employees protect, advocate and build sustainable futures for refugees and other displacement-affected people and communities.

• DRC works during displacement at all stages: In the acute crisis, in exile, when settling and integrating in a new place, or upon return.
• DRC provides protection and life-saving humanitarian assistance.
• DRC supports displaced persons in becoming self-reliant and included in hosting societies.
• DRC works with civil society and responsible authorities to promote the protection of rights and peaceful coexistence.
• Our 6,000 volunteers in Denmark make an invaluable difference in integration activities throughout the country.

DRC has been present in Tanzania since 2015, delivering integrated multi-sectoral assistance combining CCCM, livelihood programming, individual and community-based protection, general food distribution, as well as environmental preservation and regeneration. The country has provided asylum to refugees from neighbouring countries, such as Rwanda, Burundi, and the Democratic Republic of Congo (DR Congo), and has naturalized over 160,000 Burundians.
