Programme Manager – Thessaloniki – InterEuropean HUMAN AID ASSOCIATION
Overview of IHA
InterEuropean Human Aid Association (IHA) is a grassroots organisation providing humanitarian aid and assistance to refugees, asylum seekers and people in need. We support thousands of individuals in Northern Greece with essential relief supplies, as well as providing a space for learning, integration and building community. IHA has operated in Northern Greece since 2016 and is currently running a warehouse in Diavata and a community centre in Lagadikia. We strongly focus on providing support around the principle of dignity first. We work collaboratively and are open to building new connections, while making sure to maintain sustainable operations for our team and our target group, and remaining flexible and independent.
Background
IHA has operated in Northern Greece for over nine years, building a strong network with humanitarian grassroots organisations, as well as with local actors and initiatives supporting forcibly displaced people in Europe. Today, IHA operates in Northern Greece, primarily in supply management, logistics, informal education, community building, and inclusion support. We work closely with local actors to assist people on the move to access services, develop networks, skills and tools, and move towards self-reliance and independence in their new place of residence, guided by the principle of dignity first.
