About 2/2: … 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

Crisis Action has offices in Berlin, Brussels, Cairo, London, New York and Paris.
