About the partnership
| Humanitarian Outcomes is a team of specialist consultants providing research and policy advice for humanitarian aid agencies and donor governments. We undertake:
The partners of Humanitarian Outcomes are former aid practitioners and policy makers with established track records of applied research in the field of humanitarian action. Past and ongoing consultations include work for the governments of the UK, USA and other nations, United Nations bodies, international aid organisations, and interagency and intergovernmental groups. Our research covers the institutional, financial, and operational mechanics of the international humanitarian system, and considers the broader political and strategic environment in which aid policy takes shape. Our research products aim to provide workable solutions based on practical, evidence-based analysis. Projects currently underway include a first full State of the Humanitarian System review for ALNAP, building on the 2010 pilot; an evaluation of livelihood interventions in humanitarian crises financed by the Directorate-General for the European Commission Humanitarian Aid and Civil Protection (DG ECHO); country studies for the mid-term review of the World Food Programme’s (WFP) current global Strategic Plan; a study with Transparency International Kenya regarding the integrity in food assistance mechanisms in Kenya, examining issues of accountability and transparency; and involvement in a UK DfID-funded research consortium on livelihoods and basic services in fragile and conflict affected situations.We welcome enquiries about our availability for future work, suggestions for research ideas and possible collaborations.
