The Disaster Emergency Committee (DEC)

The Disaster Emergency Committee (DEC) is a UK organization that coordinates the response to major international disasters or crises. When a significant emergency occurs—like an earthquake, flood, or conflict—the DEC brings together leading charities to raise funds and provide aid. This collaborative approach ensures that donations are used effectively and reach those in need quickly. The DEC plays a vital role in mobilizing public support and increasing awareness about humanitarian issues, making a significant impact on relief efforts during times of crisis.
