DRC has officially launched its new Global Strategy  The new Global strategy is setting a clear direction, expressing our identity as a displacement-focused organisation with protection at its core, and strengthens our commitment to people affected by conflict and crisis. Having a shared vision is essential in today’s humanitarian landscape, marked by rising displacement and declining funding. It gives us a clear direction for how we will focus our collective efforts in the years ahead. The strategy is built on our Response Framework and Global Theory of Change, and introduces three strategic pushes that will guide our work across countries and functions:    ✔️ Ensuring safety and dignity across everything we do. Putting protection, rights, and safety of displaced people at the center of everything DRC does, from emergencies to long-term solutions, from high-level advocacy with decision makers to day-to-day operations in humanitarian crises around the world. We do this because safety and dignity enable peoples' path to a hopeful future.   ✔️ Promoting self-reliance to rebuild people’s lives. We support displaced people to rebuild their lives and become more independent through access to livelihoods, employment, entrepreneurship, legal assistance, and financial services. We do this because helping people to become self-reliant as soon as possible is empowering.  ✔️ Advancing Anticipatory Action and reduce harm. We will work with a combination of forecasting and early warning tools and models, local knowledge, and partnerships to anticipate risks, protect communities, and respond more proactively when early action is possible. We do this because acting early saves lives, time, and money. This strategy belongs to all of us in DRC and will be translated in our programmes, operations, partnerships, advocacy, and daily decisions.  Thank you to everyone who contributed. Let’s turn this shared direction into meaningful change for people affected by displacement.  Read the full Global Strategy here: https://lnkd.in/eYfmwEmC
