Humanitarian Response and Resilience

Shaping Africa’s Future with Evidence, Equity, and Innovation for Impact

Overview

We conduct research and design interventions that strengthen community resilience in the face of crises such as conflicts, natural disasters, and forced migration. Our work links population dynamics with emergency preparedness, response, and recovery efforts. We collaborate with humanitarian partners to ensure that interventions are data-driven, inclusive, and responsive to the needs of vulnerable groups, including refugees, internally displaced persons, women, children, and the elderly.

Crisis Preparedness and Response Evidence

Strengthen evidence for preparedness and response in contexts affected by conflict, displacement, disasters, disease outbreaks, and forced migration.

Inclusive Humanitarian Programming

Support humanitarian programming that responds to the needs of refugees, internally displaced persons, women, children, older persons, persons with disabilities, and vulnerable groups.

Durable Solutions and Recovery

Promote evidence-based interventions that strengthen livelihoods, protection, social cohesion, recovery, and community resilience. 

Humanitarian Data Systems

Enhance humanitarian data systems for improved needs assessment, targeting, accountability, learning, and response coordination. 

Resilience Partnerships

Build partnerships with communities, humanitarian actors, government institutions, civil society, and development partners
