Good Practice in Humanitarian Financing: Ethiopia's Humanitarian Response Fund

Abstract

The Good Practice Paper series of the NGOs and Humanitarian Reform Project aims to highlight examples of practices identified within the project’s four focus countries (Afghanistan, Democratic Republic of Congo, Ethiopia and Zimbabwe), that contribute to effective implementation of the humanitarian reform agenda. This paper’s conclusions about good practices of the Ethiopia Humanitarian Response Fund (HRF) are based on the assumption that an ideal emergency response fund - and therefore a model HRF - is flexible and quick, and is shown to improve the effectiveness and coordination of humanitarian response and that it ensures access for NNGOs and LNGOs.
