ALNAP promotes sector-wide learning between humanitarian organisations and from previous experiences to improve the performance of humanitarian action. One way that ALNAP does this is by circulating lessons papers in response to recent humanitarian crises. These are predominantly based on the evaluation findings held in ALNAP’s evaluative reports database, and draw on additional material as appropriate.
Some lessons papers below have been submitted by ALNAP members or produced in collaboration with other organisations. Others have been commissioned by the ALNAP secretariat.
