The ODI Humanitarian Policy Group project examines how the humanitarian sector can engage with social and political dynamics influencing humanitarian assistance through their new Integrated Programme. Through the integrated programme, the Humanitarian Policy Group seeks to explore five research projects from various angles to examine how the humanitarian sector can engage with the social and political dynamics that influence humanitarian assistance. Project activities include: (1) designing the research approach and methodology through a comprehensive scoping and refining process; (2) producing and publishing in-depth research through literature reviews and case studies in partnership with key actors; and (3) developing final reports and recommendations and communicating findings through policy engagement with key programme and policy actors.
