Humanitarian programs and development programs - what is the difference? 

Humanitarian programs and development programs are two different types of international aid with different goals and objectives. Humanitarian programs usually aim to help people affected by crisis situations such as war, natural disasters, famine, or epidemics. The goal of humanitarian aid is to provide people with the necessary resources to survive and continue their lives. 

On the other hand, development programs aim to raise the standard of living and develop various sectors of the economy, such as education, health care, agriculture, transport, etc. The goal of development programs is to ensure sustainable development and improve people's quality of life in the long term. 

Development programs also include projects aimed at increasing social cohesion and mutual understanding between people. These projects may consist of joint cultural activities, exchange of students and scholars, and other initiatives that promote cooperation and understanding between different cultures and groups. 

Development programs are vital because they contribute to sustainable development and improve people's quality of life in the long term. Through these programs, people can gain access to education, health care, and other resources that will help them develop and improve their living conditions.
