HFP has provided futures-oriented reports, studies, evaluations and organizational methodologies and “tools,” to identify, monitor and mitigate ever more complex humanitarian threats.
HFP has worked with a wide range of social and natural scientists, representatives of governments, international and non-governmental organisations, as well as with the private sector to develop means for those with humanitarian roles and responsibilities to meet the challenges of exponentially increasing disasters and emergencies.
HF analyses the changing nature of humanitarian crises based on the assumption that they are not aberrant phenomena but reflections of the ways that societies are structured and allocate resources.
Programme Area 2: Planning from the future – Enhanced approaches for identifying, monitoring and mitigating ever more complex humanitarian threats.
The section’s principal focus is on effective approaches for anticipation, adaptation, innovation, collaboration and leadership in a humanitarian futures context.
