The event fosters partnerships aimed at addressing the needs of communities impacted by crises, disasters, and humanitarian emergencies.

The participation fee covers all direct costs related to exhibiting under the Norwegian Pavilion. Participants are responsible for their own travel arrangements, including hotel and flights.

Our goal is to promote Norwegian sustainable solutions within the humanitarian sector, connecting them directly with key decision-makers from the UN and NGOs operating in Asia, Africa, and the Middle East.

As a participant, you will also gain access to the DIHAD Partnership Hub:

This platform facilitates targeted meetings between exhibitors and international NGOs, government agencies, and other humanitarian actors.
