Humanitarian Responses
The Humanitarian Impact Institute’s work in Humanitarian Responses is multisectoral with a focus on overall program/portfolio/Response effectiveness. Our key focus sectors are Health, Education, Protection, WASH & Shelter, MHPSS, DRR and basic needs.
HII works in sudden onset emergency humanitarian responses as well as protracted emergencies.
We deploy participatory methods to elevate the voices of affected communities and marginalised groups within those communities. We have a focus on gender, diversity and inclusion in our work and ensure robust analysis on these quality indicators and accountability to affected populations throughout.
