The Listening Project (LP) began with a two-week field effort in Nanggroe Aceh Darussalam (Aceh), Indonesia in November 2005. The International Rescue Committee, the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies and Mercy Corps collaborated with CDA in arranging for, and carrying out, the first field visit of the Listening Project in Aceh. Each of these agencies provided funds, staff and other supports (hospitality, transport, etc.) to the effort. CDA sent three staff people to take part in this inaugural field visit.
