Research reportDescription
This study is the first output of a research project commissioned by five UK-based international humanitarian non-governmental organisations (INGOs) - ActionAid, CAFOD, Christian Aid, Oxfam GB and Tearfund. The main purpose of the project was to look at the current and future potential of partnerships with national non-governmental organisations (NNGOs) in humanitarian response, based on lessons from across the commissioning agencies in four major emergency settings.
The project is part of an ongoing effort to build the future of humanitarian assistance, which has already seen publications in 2011 from Christian Aid and Oxfam GB. The research process involved interviews with INGO and NNGO staff, workshops and meetings with INGO representatives, and a review of relevant documentation.
A second output of this research has also been published 'Missed Again: Making space for partnership in the typhoon Haiyan response'.
