Join us for a new In Focus series, to discuss the findings and recommendations of a new rapid review, published by Humanitarian Outcomes, In Focus: The role of the humanitarian sector in navigating ethical decisions in Afghanistan.

Join us for a virtual discussion on the findings and recommendations of this review published by Humanitarian Outcomes, Slipping Away? A review of humanitarian capabilities in cholera response. This review is supported by the UK Humanitarian Innovation Hub, and funded by the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO).

As part of the Sixth Global Symposium on Health Systems Research, our Research for Health in Humanitarian Crises (R2HC) programme will host an online panel discussion exploring how health systems can effectively deliver public health responses to COVID-19 which meet the needs of refugees and internally displaced people (IDP).

Join us for a webinar series where we will be showcasing a range of Elrha-funded innovations in humanitarian gender-based violence programming. If you are a donor, innovator or practitioner, this series could inform you of what to fund, how best to innovate, and how to adopt new innovations.

The “WASH in Humanitarian Crises: Setting the research agenda up to 2030” serves as a guide for researchers, humanitarian practitioners and funding agencies, providing a prioritised list of research questions that, when answered, will contribute to improved WASH policy and practice in humanitarian crises.

We hosted a webinar on Wednesday, 4 September 2024, to launch our report: “Research Priorities for Non-Communicable Diseases in Humanitarian Crises: Focus on Cardio-Metabolic Syndrome”. The event shared key findings from the report and heard from experts representing the research, practice and patient communities for NCDs in humanitarian settings.

As part of this year’s Humanitarian Networks and Partnerships Weeks (HNPW) we will be hosting a hybrid event to share emerging findings from our flagship initiative, the Global Prioritisation Exercise (GPE).

To address the need for more evidence of what works to support MHPSS programming in humanitarian settings, a priority research agenda taking us to 2030 has been developed by key MHPSS stakeholders. The result is a list of 20 most critical research questions to support MHPSS response. We shared these results with a community of practice at a webinar on 17 January 2023.

This online event will launch the third paper in our Scaling Series, How to Scale: Tactics to Enable the Adoption of Humanitarian Innovations, which provides a playbook of tactics for innovators who are aiming to scale through enabling other organisations to adopt their innovations. These tactics are also useful for innovators who are seeking to scale their innovation to other teams, offices and locations within their organisation that have not been involved in developing or testing the innovation. The panel discussion will be held on Wednesday 23 November 2022, 12:00pm – 1:00pm GMT.

Join us at this year's Global WASH Cluster (GWC) Satellite Event as we launch our new Innovation Opportunities in Solid Waste Management report. The event will convene WASH coordination platform members and humanitarian partners to discuss the report’s findings and explore the role of sectoral and inter-sectoral coordination in addressing them.

Humanitarian crises pose a major threat to health and dignity worldwide. The implementation of evidence-informed interventions plays a vital role in maximising the impact of humanitarian response. Recognising that a significant body of humanitarian health research has been published in the last 10 years, this online event will launch our flagship publication An Evidence Review of Research on Health Interventions in Humanitarian Crises: 2021 Update (HHER2), in partnership with Johns Hopkins Center for Humanitarian Health. Key findings will be presented on Wednesday 22 June, 2:00pm – 3:00pm BST.

This webinar provides insight into new evidence relevant to the COVID-19 pandemic in several humanitarian crisis settings. Identifying key priorities emerging on humanitarian needs, this webinar will pull out common messages for humanitarian audiences. We will focus on the priorities, needs and perceptions of people affected by humanitarian crises and how new evidence on their needs, and new tools for collecting this evidence, can be used and applied during outbreak response.
