What Ong Hamap-humanitaire does

HAMAP-Humanitaire is a French international solidarity non-governmental organization (association loi 1901) founded in 1999 and headquartered in Saint-Denis, France, with a secondary address in Alfortville. The organization supports local partners in developing countries across three core program verticals: (1) Mine Action — landmine and explosive remnants of war clearance, risk education, and victim assistance in Iraq, Mauritania, Palestine, Lebanon, and Syria; (2) Water and Sanitation — construction and rehabilitation of drinking water supply systems, sanitation infrastructure, and hygiene awareness across Africa, Asia, the Caribbean, and the Middle East; and (3) Child Sponsorship — recurring sponsorship of children's education in India (via partner GIFT, at 240 EUR/year) and Burkina Faso (at 180 EUR/year). It operates in 17 countries through 28 projects with 11–50 staff, including a directly-managed 6-person local office in Nouakchott, Mauritania opened in October 2022.

The organization's operating model is a hybrid of institutional grant-making and decentralized cooperation: HAMAP does not implement projects directly but channels funding from French public-sector donors (Ministry of Europe and Foreign Affairs, AFD, regional water agencies such as Adour-Garonne and Rhin Meuse), municipal governments (Toulouse Métropole, SIVOM SAGE), and corporate foundations (Suez, Eurofins, David Hadida) to vetted local implementing NGOs (Rain Water Cambodia, APIT Humanitaire et Développement, Shareteah Humanitarian Organization, GIFT). Technology usage is limited to conventional humanitarian program management — there is no evidence of proprietary digital platforms, data assets, or AI/ML capability. Field operations rely on partner organizations and trained community agents (e.g., 5 PNDHD-trained awareness agents deployed in Nouadhibou, Mauritania).

Financially, HAMAP-Humanitaire is a privately funded non-profit with no equity investors, no disclosed funding rounds, and no publicly available revenue figures. Revenue streams comprise individual donations and memberships, institutional project grants, and recurring child sponsorship subscriptions. Annual operating scale is best triangulated to the low single-digit million EUR range based on 28 active projects, the disclosed 185,000 EUR single-project budget, and 11–50 staff. Governance is by a Board of Directors under President Jean-Marie Paintendre (since June 2025), succeeding Martine Gernez who served a 5-year term.
