Twelve ways to take anticipatory action to scale in conflicts and recurring crises

Distils findings and recommendation relevant to supporting anticipatory action in conflicts and recurring crises.

Abstract

This policy review looked at all SPARC publications, and distils all of the findings and recommendations that are relevant to supporting anticipatory action in conflicts and recurring crises. This brief does not set out a full analysis of everything that is known about anticipatory action in conflicts and recurring crises. It limits itself to synthesising the lessons from SPARC’s other studies.

This work is part of the Supporting Pastoralism and Agriculture in Recurrent and Protracted Crises  (SPARC) programme.
