IFRC National Society Development Competency Framework
This Competency Framework outlines the behaviour, knowledge and skill required for everyone deployed and/or working with a National Society on a regular basis, across the IFRC network.
While the ownership and primary responsibility for National Society development rests with each Red Cross or Red Crescent National Society, any engagement with a National Society has the potential to support or undermine their efforts to grow, transform and develop. For this reason, the IFRC Secretariat signed the IFRC National Society Development Competency Framework in September 2023 as an internal policy to guide, shape and enhance the competencies of all those who are deployed and/or working with a National Society on a regular basis, across the IFRC.
