We are building a unique global research community
that will help humanitarians get better at responding to disasters, promote effective local response, and reduce the repercussions of humanitarian disasters on affected communities.
All our projects fall within three areas of work, and you can filter our portfolio to learn more about each one.
1
locally-led response
Humanitarians inadvertently undermine local capacities that are vital for protection and future resilience.
We provide insights into the opportunities and processes for supporting locally-led humanitarian action, community engagement, and partnership.
2
Humanitarian innovation
Rigorous approaches to evidencing innovation are needed to figure out what works and avoid harm.
We are helping advancing innovation practices to address bigger and more complex challenges.
3
Evidence-informed decisions
Organisational decision making processes are poorly understood.
We help organisations generate high-quality evidence and explore the processes that allow agencies to make better decisions.
