We promote a more systematic and coordinated approach to community engagement and accountability by strengthening the capacity of national and local stakeholders, including civil society organisations, to lead emergency responses as well as development and peacebuilding efforts. To ensure choice and dignity for people affected by crises, we scale up cash assistance in emergency responses when local markets enable this.</p> <p><strong>We collaborate with partners to protect people in crisis and conflict</strong></p> <p>The protection of people is central to our work. We seek to prevent harm, enhance security and enable people to exercise their rights. We work with partners across the humanitarian, development and peacebuilding sectors to ensure a holistic approach to protection, drawing on our expertise in a wide range of areas. This includes gender-based violence, education, international human rights, shelter, coordination of crisis response and peace monitoring.</p> <p><strong>We promote climate action and sustainable responses&nbsp;</strong></p> <p>We seek to strengthen the ability of vulnerable communities to mitigate the impact of climate change and promote clean energy solutions. We work closely with regional and national partners in eastern and western Africa to produce better climate and weather information, strengthening the ability of farmers, fishermen and pastoralists to manage changing conditions that impact their livelihoods. We also support projects aimed at increasing access to clean, reliable and affordable energy for people living in refugee and displacement camps, as well as initiatives to replace polluting energy sources with clean energy, such as solar power.</p> <p><strong>We improve the effectiveness of multilateral institutions and responses</strong></p> <p>We strive to continuously improve the effectiveness of multilateral systems, such as the UN, where countries work together to pursue common goals. We work with partners to promote humanitarian, development and peacebuilding objectives and strengthen responses to acute and emerging crises. We promote policy development and system change where this will improve outcomes. We place experts at all decision-making levels from international to regional, national and local, and contribute to enhancing coordination and leadership.</p> <p><strong>We promote democracy and human rights</strong></p> <p>The number of authoritarian regimes worldwide has increased in recent years and efforts to strengthen democratic governance are vital to reversing this trend. We work to increase respect for people&rsquo;s rights, political participation and representation. This includes taking part in election observation to help strengthen democratic institutions and processes. We also participate in projects aimed at reinforcing the rule of law in post-conflict settings and societies in transition.</p></div></div> </div> </main> </main> <footer class="footer-gray"> <section class="footer-gray__top-bar"> <div class="footer-gray__top-bar-left-links-container"> <a href="/media-centre/"><span>Media centre</span></a> <span class="footer-gray__vertical-divider"></span> <a href="/careers/"><span>Careers</span></a> <span class="footer-gray__vertical-divider"></span> <a href="/procurement/"><span>Tenders</span></a> <span class="footer-gray__vertical-divider"></span> </div> <div class="footer-gray__top-bar-right-links-container"> <a href="http://www.facebook.com/norwegianrefugeecouncil/" class="footer-gray__social-media-icon"> <span alt="http://www.facebook.com/norwegianrefugeecouncil/" data-svg="facebook"></span> </a> <a href="http://instagram.com/nrc_norway" class="footer-gray__social-media-icon"> <span alt="http://instagram.com/nrc_norway" data-svg="instagram"></span> </a> <a href="http://twitter.com/intent/follow?source=followbutton&amp;variant=1.0&amp;screen_name=NRC_Norway" class="footer-gray__social-media-icon"> <span alt="http://twitter.com/intent/follow?source=followbutton&amp;variant=1.0&amp;screen_name=NRC_Norway" data-svg="twitter"></span> </a> <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/norwegian-refugee-council/" class="footer-gray__social-media-icon"> <span alt="https://www.linkedin.com/company/norwegian-refugee-council/" data-svg="linkedin"></span> </a> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/@NorwRefugeeCouncil?sub_confirmation=1" class="footer-gray__social-media-icon"> <span alt="https://www.youtube.com/@NorwRefugeeCouncil?sub_confirmation=1" data-svg="youtube"></span> </a> </div> </section> <div class="footer-gray__column-container"> <div class="footer-gray__column"> <div class="footer-gray__title">Norwegian Refugee Council</div> <div class="footer-gray__text"><p>Prinsens gate 2<br />0152 Oslo<br />Norway</p></div> </div> <div class="footer-gray__column"> <div class="footer-gray__second-column"> <div class="footer-gray__second-column-flex-container"> <h2 class="footer-gray__title">Switchboard (08-15 CET)</h2> <div class="footer-gray__text footer-gray__second-column-text"><p>+47 23 10 98 00<br /><a href="mailto:nrc@nrc.no">nrc@nrc.no</a></p></div> </div> <div class="footer-gray__second-column-flex-container"> <h2 class="footer-gray__title">Media hotline</h2> <div class="footer-gray__text"><p>+47 90 56 23 29<br /><a href="mailto:media@nrc.no">media@nrc.no</a></p></div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="footer-gray__column"> <h2 class="footer-gray__title">Donor support</h2> <div class="footer-gray__text"><p>Phone: +47 800 33 503<br />SMS: +47 594 48 256</p> <p><a href="mailto:fundraising@nrc.no">fundraising@nrc.no</a></p></div> </div> <div class="footer-gray__column"> <div class="footer-gray__pie-chart-container"> <div class="footer-gray__pie-chart-image"> <img src="/globalassets/graphics/piechart.svg" alt="90"/> <span class="footer-gray__pie-chart-percent">90%</span> </div> <div class="footer-gray__text footer-gray__pie-chart-description"><p>Over 90 per cent of our global revenue goes directly to fulfil our purpose.</p></div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="footer-gray__bottom-links"> <div class="footer_gray__bottom-link-item"> <span>&nbsp;</span> <a href="/privacy-policy/" style="display: flex"> Privacy policy </a> </div> <div class="footer_gray__bottom-link-item"> <span>&nbsp;</span> <a href="/about-cookies/" style="display: flex"> About cookies </a> </div> <div class="footer_gray__bottom-link-item"> <span>NRC &#xA9; 1996-2024&nbsp;</span> </div> </div> </footer> <script> function _onAssetLoaded() { Nrc.PageInit.instance().init(); var serviceUrl = "/WebshopCart"; Nrc.Giftshop.ShoppingCart.setOptionsObject({ serviceUrl: serviceUrl }); Nrc.Giftshop.ShoppingCart.init(); var assetsEvent = document.createEvent("CustomEvent"); assetsEvent.initCustomEvent("AssetsLoaded", true, false, undefined); document.dispatchEvent(assetsEvent); } Oxx.PolyFills.ImageSrcSetPolyFill.initImages(); Oxx.Html.ImageLoader.crawlPageForUnloadedImages(); Oxx.Html.CoverImage.initImages(); Oxx.Html.AssetsLoader .load("/scripts/v-20240607071918/nrc.web.min.js") .load("/scripts/built/prod/scripts/v-20240607071938/main.js") .complete(_onAssetLoaded); </script> <script type="text/javascript" src="//s7.addthis.com/js/300/addthis_widget.js#pubid=ra-574d5da9ab256993" defer></script> <script async src="https://cdn.siteimprove.net/cms/overlay.js"></script> <script defer="defer" src="/Util/Find/epi-util/find.js"></script> <script> document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded',function(){if(typeof FindApi === 'function'){var api = new FindApi();api.setApplicationUrl('/');api.setServiceApiBaseUrl('/find_v2/');api.processEventFromCurrentUri();api.bindWindowEvents();api.bindAClickEvent();api.sendBufferedEvents();}}) </script> </body> </html>
