There are three sources of aid; [[Non governmental organizations]] (NGOs) [[Bilateral Aid|Bilateral]] and [[Multilateral Aid|multilateral]]. NGOs are voluntary organizations such as [[Oxfam]] and [[Concern]] who provide both emergency and '''development aid'''. Bilateral aid is aid from one country to another. It is usually ‘tied’ aid in that it has some strings attached to it (i.e. a trade agreement) It is usually used to improve agriculture, education, health services etc. Multilateral aid is aid from international institutions such as Red Cross, the UN and the World Bank who provide both emergency and development aid.

[[Emergency aid]] has saved countless lives after a natural disaster, or war, or disease. It is aid, which provides food, clothing, shelter, emergency personnel, and medical aid. It is advantageous in that the rapid dispatching of such aid has managed to save lives that otherwise would have been lost. Modern transport systems have made the transportation of such aid much easier and more effective than in the past. Emergency aid does not upset local food producers in a major way, since it tends to be a one off occurrence that reacts to major humanitarian catastrophes.
