Findings from Bangladesh
Risks in humanitarian aid are multifaceted. They are often systematically assessed, but rarely tackled as a joint effort. CHA Research Fellow Darina Pellowska, together with Johanna Fipp, shows a variety of practical Risk Sharing activities, focusing on joint risk assessments, harmonisation of risk management mechanisms, joint risk mitigation and shared accountability. The paper includes key findings on the premises of risk sharing and the implementation of risk sharing through agile management.
The paper is a result of the project component Identifying and overcoming localisation barriers in the area of project management and risk transfer, which is part of the project “Strengthening Programme and Policy Relevant Capacities of Humanitarian Actors in Germany” (SPreAD), funded by the German Federal Foreign Office.
