Humanitarian Aid International (HAI) is a not-for-profit organisation registered under the Indian Trusts Act, 1882 and FCRA. HAI is also registered under 12A, 80G and gets tax exemption. HAI was founded with the overall mission of working globally as an Indian organisation in four thematic areas, i.e., 1)humanitarian response, 2) disaster risk reduction, 3) climate change & adaptation, and 4) humanitarian advocacy. HAI has three pillars to work on these thematic areas, i.e., 1) a national platform of frontline organisations, 2) a national pooled fund to make disaster responses timely, and 3) a national roster to provide surge support to smaller humanitarian organisations. HAI is also making constant efforts to integrate technology into disaster management. An informal Drone for Humanity (DfH) platform has been constituted to inform the development and humanitarian response programs to incorporate mitigation and resilience features.
