CID Humanitarian Network
The Council for International Development facilitates the CID Humanitarian Network (formerly the NDRF), a standing committee of CID members that have an interest and involvement in international humanitarian response and emergency management issues.
The aim of the Humanitarian Network is to provide a collective civil society voice and forum for cooperation and shared learning for best practice in international humanitarian assistance for New Zealand NGOs. Humanitarian Network members work closely together during humanitarian emergencies to minimise duplication and ensure their response is as effective as possible.
The Humanitarian Network is an open forum and encourages non-CID members and observers, such as the Red Cross and the Ministry for Civil Defence and Emergency Management, to engage with the Humanitarian Network and contribute to the outcomes of the forum.
For more information about the Humanitarian Network and up-to-date information on the latest emergencies, contact code@cid.org.nz, and see CID’s recent Press Releases.
