Responding to sudden-onset humanitarian crises

The Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO) has strong arrangements in place to respond to sudden-onset humanitarian crises. 


Our new report found that they deliver rapid and effective support to those who need it most, and can be a positive influence on other humanitarian organisations. 


However, funding is being cut both in the UK and globally, and the global humanitarian need is growing due to conflict and climate shocks causing more frequent and complex crises around the world.


To continue to provide timely humanitarian aid, FCDO must assess its future capability requirements.
