The ̽»¨¾«Ñ¡ is committed to bringing life-saving immunization to children in the most challenging and hard-to reach areas. We work in 18 fragile, crisis-affected countries to ensure that caregivers and infants can access immunizations.

In acute emergencies, the ̽»¨¾«Ñ¡ implements community-based management of acute malnutrition (CMAM) to ensure that children and pregnant lactating women get the treatment they need. As countries evolve from emergencies to rebuilding, the ̽»¨¾«Ñ¡ prioritizes the prevention and treatment of malnutrition.

The ̽»¨¾«Ñ¡ supports simple, cost-effective and proven interventions that result in fewer unplanned pregnancies, safer pregnancy and childbirth, and reduced physical and emotional harm from gender-based violence.

The ̽»¨¾«Ñ¡ maintains a dedicated professional Research, Evaluation and Learning (REL) Technical Unit team to ensure that the organization is both outcomes driven and evidence based in its approach.

The Best Use of Resources initiative aims to increase the ̽»¨¾«Ñ¡â€™s own effectiveness, and the effectiveness of the humanitarian system as a whole.

The ̽»¨¾«Ñ¡ is committed to understanding and applying the best available evidence to our programs in order to achieve outcomes for clients affected by conflict and crisis.

In cases where evidence is weak or does not exist, the ̽»¨¾«Ñ¡ is committed to generating evidence. Evidence generation strengthens the ̽»¨¾«Ñ¡â€™s understanding of what works to achieve outcomes in humanitarian settings.

Rather than measure success by outputs that result from activities, the ̽»¨¾«Ñ¡ is invested in interventions proven to be effective based on our research and experience.

The Violence, Prevention and Response (VPR) unit implements programming that prevents violence against women, children, especially girls, and other vulnerable groups, and responds to it when it does occur.

The ̽»¨¾«Ñ¡ recognizes that with support and investment, adolescent girls can transform their lives and their communities. Working with girls instead of on behalf of girls, the ̽»¨¾«Ñ¡â€™s programs are driven and led by girls in a way that empowers them long into the future.
