The IRC’s Global Crisis Analysis team
The IRC’s Global Crisis Analysis (GCA) team sits within both the Policy & Advocacy team and the Emergency Unit. It supports the IRC to make timely, informed decisions about how to respond to humanitarian crises by deploying robust, “good enough” analysis of political, climate, conflict, economic or other factors driving crises.
It sits in a cross-cutting position, between the External Relations and Crisis Response, Recovery and Development departments, reflecting that its analysis drives decisions about both programmatic and policy responses to crisis.
The GCA team’s role is not limited to delivering analysis, however, and members of the team are expected to serve as trusted advisers to IRC colleagues, supporting them to understand how to apply analysis to their work.
