Connecting With KAN
Kuwait Aid Network
Kuwait Aid Network (KAN) was founded in June 2020 amidst a global pandemic in an effort to alleviate food insecurity. Now, as a growing not-for-profit, KAN works with migrant workers to provide food, sanitary supplies, and legal aid among the many other difficulties that migrant workers face. As we continue to tackle these issues, we decided to share our experiences in the field to you all at home. In 2020 KAN was awarded the European Union Chaillot Prize for Human Rights for its Human Rights Advocacy in the Arab Gulf.
