Norwegian Refugee Council | Strengthening programming in response to climate change

Shared Planet was hired by the Norwegian Refugee Council as a Climate and Environment Consultant to develop a narrative on climate and environmental risks, interventions, and best practices in the MENA region and identify how NRC’s core competencies—Livelihoods and Food Security, Shelter & Settlements, Water, Sanitation and Hygiene—can be further adapted to better integrate climate considerations into humanitarian programming. ​

This project included the development of a mapping report capturing the literary and practical landscape within the region on climate programming in humanitarian action, best practice tip sheets to support on-ground technical implementation, and two flagship case studies for NRC highlighting their unique interventions in the region.​

​

Ultimately, this project will provide the foundation for NRC to enhance its climate-sensitive strategies and improve the resilience of affected populations to respond to climate change and environmental degradation. ​
