Crisis Action works behind the scenes to support a diverse range of partners who are all concerned with tackling the immediate effects or long-term consequences of conflict. We aim to help them increase the impact of their responses to current and emerging conflict-related crises.
Crisis Action operates in a flexible manner with partners choosing to engage in temporary 'opt-in' alliances on specific crises.
The support we provide is determined by the specific circumstances of each crisis and may include:
Warning of emerging crises and prompting early responses
Sharing information and analysis between partners
Research and analysis of Government policy
Facilitating partner dialogue
Negotiating joint policy platforms
Coordination of agreed partner action plans
Planning and executing joint campaigns
Evaluation of the effectiveness of joint responses to crises
Crisis Action has offices in Berlin, Brussels, Cairo, London, Nairobi, New York and Paris.
