World Disasters Report 2012
Our 2012 World Disasters Report widened and sharpened the focus on the complex causes of forced migration, and the diverse consequences for affected populations and humanitarian actors.
It revealed that to respond to the growing numbers of forced migrants worldwide, humanitarian actors, including the IFRC network, need:
- Better preparedness initiatives
- Better instruments for protecting vulnerable people
- New tools for assessing vulnerability and building resilience
- More effective community engagement and capacity building with a longer-term lens
- Innovative approaches for delivering assistance
