SOHS 2018 Panel discussion, Paris

Groupe URD, in partnership with ALNAP, is very pleased to invite you to a presentation of the findings of the 2018 edition of The State of the Humanitarian System and the five case studies that we carried out, looking at the effectiveness of aid from an operational perspective. 

This fourth edition of The State of the Humanitarian System report covers the period 2015-2017. It was coordinated by ALNAP, an international network of humanitarian organisations, and was produced in collaboration with several organisations, including Groupe URD, which was in charge of carrying out the five case studies in Bangladesh, Kenya, Lebanon, Mali and Yemen.

To coincide with the publication of these case studies, Groupe URD is organising a general presentation of the report in Paris. This will be an opportunity to present the key findings of this in-depth study, with reference to experiences in the field.

Sufficiency – Coverage – Relevance and appropriateness – Accountability and participation – Effectiveness – Efficiency – Coherence – Connectedness – Complementarity – Impact: the aid system was analysed in the light of these 10 quality criteria. These will be explored via the five case studies carried out in emblematic countries.
