    Concern Worldwide's Approach to Emergencies

    10 April 2018

    Concern is a humanitarian organisation. Preparing for and responding to emergencies is a core part of our organisational identity and mandate.

    This paper sets out our approach to working in emergency contexts, and the requirement that anyone working for Concern may be expected to support the delivery of rapid, appropriate and effective responses to people in need. It places our emergency preparedness and response activities in the wider organisational identity, vision, mission and values and outlines the link between our humanitarian, development, and advocacy work.
