Noting my previously declared CoI, please could someone add:
Human Appeal CEO Mohamed Ashmawey was given the "[[Humanitarian Hero of the Year Award|Humanitarian Hero of the Year Award 2022]]" at the annual global humanitarian conference AIDEX, in Brussels, Belgium in November 2022.<ref>{{cite web |title=AidEx 2022 Award winners announced |url=https://www.aid-expo.com/blog/540-aidex-2022-award-winners-announced |website=AidEx |access-date=22 November 2022 |date=22 November 2022}}</ref>
I've red-linked the award title, as it is already red-linked on List of humanitarian and service awards. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 14:56, 22 November 2022 (UTC)
@ Rusalkii: The above source is independent of both HA and Dr Ashmawey, but here you go:

May we append to the Projects section something like:
In response to the cost of living situation in the UK in April 2023, Human Appeal collaborated with [[Unilever]] brand [[Hellemans]] to provide "[[Iftar]] for All" food boxes to people in need in London, Birmingham and Bolton during [[Ramadan]], whether observing the festival or not.<ref>{{cite web |title=Hellmann's partners with Human Appeal to launch 'Iftar For all' |url=https://www.unilever.co.uk/news/press-releases/2023/hellmanns-partners-with-human-appeal-to-launch-iftar-for-all/ |publisher=Unilever |access-date=11 July 2023 |date=12 April 2023}}</ref><ref>{{cite news |last1=Bennett |first1=Freddie |title=New food boxes help people struggling with Iftar costs during Ramadan |url=https://www.mirror.co.uk/ money/new-food-boxes-help- people-29618694 |access-date=11 July 2023 |work=Mirror |date=3 April 2023}}</ref>

[1] Please feel free to search for a broader consensus regarding these changes here on the talk page, or perhaps by using one of the other
WP:CONTENTDISPUTE arenas, such as
WP:3O (which I have found over the years to be very efficient). I stand ready to assist in any discussions going on from this. Once consensus has been achieved, and the decision is for the information to be included in the article, the request template can then be reactivated in order for another editor to make the change for you.

3O Response: The
Daily Mirror is in
the reference table as a rather questionable source, and the particular article from it looks a good bit like a puff piece, or even to possibly be partially sourced from press release material. Also, it would probably not be good for the article to become or contain an indiscriminate laundry list of every particular individual project the organization is involved in. Unless there's some better indication that this one was particularly notable, I would favor omitting it, and probably checking the rest to see if they
actually merit mention as well.

Instructions for Reviewers: Do not insert major re-writes or controversial requests without clear consensus. When these are requested, ask the submitter to discuss the edits instead with regular contributors on the article's talk page. You can use {{edit COI|D|D}}.
Given my previously-declared COI, I note here that I have restored the article to its pre-November 2023 state, due to a lack of balance. Although I do some consultancy for HA, they did not ask me to make this edit, nor did I discuss it with them. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 16:44, 17 November 2023 (UTC)
![]() | This edit request by an editor with a conflict of interest was declined. |
[Note my previously-declared CoI]
It has been drawn to my attention that two consecutive, and contentious, statements in this article are wholly uncited:
In 2003, the FBI said Human Appeal had a "close relationship" with Hamas. The US state department, in leaked cables from 2003, also associated Human Appeal with Hamas and said that "members of its field offices in Bosnia, Kosovo, and Chechnya had connections to al-Qaeda associates".
Can they be removed? Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 16:00, 5 April 2024 (UTC)
