The definition of an aid worker is also limited to those working in emergency contexts to provide [[Humanitarian aid|humanitarian relief]] (as opposed to political, developmental or other assistance). The aid worker victims are employees, or contractors and consultants, of [[Nonprofit organization|not-for-profit aid agencies]].
