Protect Aid Workers (PAW) is a rapid-response mechanism for aid workers who have experienced security incidents, are under immediate threat of harm, or are facing legal charges due to their work as a humanitarian. The mechanism provides protection grants to cover costs of urgent needs such as healthcare, psychosocial support, legal support, and relocation.
In the 2024-2025 snapshot report, you can find:
- Key facts and figures of who the mechanism has supported across the two years
- Details of both individual and systems-level support that the mechanism provides
- Two stories of aid workers who have received assistance
Find out more about the mechanism and how to apply for support on the PAW website, here.

Protect Aid Workers is implemented by GISF, Legal Action Worldwide, and Protect Humanitarians.
