Roles and responsibilities
I'm against it. Humanitarian aid is not always Foreign, and Foreign aid is not always Humanitarian.
A Humanitarian NGO, or even a national government, may give aid to all sorts of different localities including some within its own nation-state of residence: think of the New Delhi office of Médecins sans Frontières, soliciting financial and other aid in Mumbai for tsunami victims on the Coromandel Coast... or Maharashtra state government emergency agencies doing the same, in a sense, trying to get assistance from New Delhi and / or other state governments for sending some crack emergency team they may have developed to Tamil Nadu...
And as for Foreign Aid being humanitarian, well, guns are not butter & butter are not guns.
The "humanitarian" label is a relatively new one, moreover: more a creature of the recently-Globalizing world -- while "foreign" is definitely a creature of the past, of the nation-state world now steadily fraying around its edges. Wikipedia users are going to come here looking for Humanitarian Aid -- a popular buzzword in the media, now, and increasingly a fixture in Globalization talk -- and they should be able to find something about it, something totally developed on its own and not stuck in the old ideas of nation-states and Foreign Aid.
Someone needs to fold in a section on Humanitarian Law, here. Also on Humanitarian NGOs and the NGO movement generally. This is all a rapidly developing area of Globalization: nothing which can get slotted back into older 19th c. & earlier nation-state concepts.

I agree with all above that humanitarian aid should not be merged foreign aid, but if I understand the tag on the Aid article, the proposal is to merge the section Humanitarian aid which is in the Aid article into the Humanitarian aid article. There is duplication, but the distinction made between humanitarian intervention and humanitarian aid is important to retain. Joel Mc 14:21, 2 November 2006 (UTC)
I am a final year design degree student at the University of Brighton, England. Researching design issues for refugees and support workers, with regards to mobility issues for injured refugees. If anyone has any information on this subject I would much appreciate it. Does anyone knows what kind of products are sent to refugee areas already (in aid boxes etc), as i am looking to use objects already sent, to create a product to aid mobility.

International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) is not an NGO, and should not be under that section. In many ways, ICRC is a very unique organization in that it has legal status in international relations (generally, only countries have legal status). Thus, ICRC is not a non-governmental organization – though it does have many characteristics that are common to NGOs.
Read here. http://www.icrc.org/Web/eng/siteeng0.nsf/iwpList109/522C6628D83A019741256E3D003FC85F
–The Red Cross and NGO Code of Conduct for Disaster Response coined the term non-governmental humanitarian agency (NGHA) to apply to the ICRC, the IFRC, and the national societies as well as NGOs. See http://www.ifrc.org/publicat/conduct/index.asp?navid=09_08. Joel Mc 06:40, 10 October 2006 (UTC)
The site got turned into a spyware infected site. And it's been "under construction" for months, but A-Squared Realtime shield caught lots of spyware coming off the site. I've removed the link.
Please keep the links clean. No need to list all the NGOs in the world. Set up a list article for that instead. There were some EL that were better suited for the articles on Development studies or Non-governmental organizations. External links shold not be snuck into the see also links. -- rxnd ( t | € | c ) 15:23, 17 August 2007 (UTC)
Hu12: Perhaps we should have started here but be that as it may, there is no question that the article needs a lot of work. I see above that I said that I would work on it and completely forgot. Of course Sphere should have been removed since it already as an internal link. I have put back in both IRIN (it is a UN Info agency with very useful uptodate info) and Alertnet which it is true is done by Reuters, but is specialized in humanitarian crises and is also useful to anyone who is reading about humanitarin aid. Unfortunately I am once again traveling in and out of Wikipedia reach over the next six weeks(China) so my work will be sporadic.-- Joel Mc ( talk) 10:23, 26 February 2008 (UTC)

Hello fellow Wikipedians, I have added the Core Humanitarian Standard on Quality and Accountability to the "Standards" section and added the relevant wikilinks. Given the fuzzy use of terms such as humanitarian aid, humanitarian action, humanitarian assistance etc., I have also added a new stand-alone section discussion challenges regarding terminology.
As this is my first contribution to Wikipedia, I would be immensely grateful for comments on how to improve my work, as well as feedback or edit suggestions.
Thanks and have a great day! Intombazane ( talk) 07:28, 6 November 2018 (UTC)

The article sometimes uses humanitarian action, ostensibly as a synonym for humanitarian aid, but this is never made clear. Is there a difference between humanitarian action and aid? If not, then references to humanitarian action should be changed to humanitarian aid or explained further so that the reader understands why action is used. If there is a difference, then a distinction should be made early in the article. Shoestringnomad ( talk) 19:39, 31 March 2021 (UTC)
