Key Projects

Faith actors are a critical component of first and lasting response in humanitarian situations. They are already often active as first responders, but can struggle to be recognised in humanitarian response. 

Bridging the Gap is designed to bring together national and international faith and non-faith based actors in South Sudan, to increase understanding, trust, coordination and collaboration in humanitarian response and recovery.

In recent years, the threats facing aid workers delivering programmes around the world have risen significantly. Mission Ready is an interactive, online security training platform that gives aid workers the knowledge and skills they need to stay safe. 

Mission Ready uses cutting-edge technology to enhance learning through real-time, ‘point-of-view’ (POV) video scenarios, putting aid workers in the kind of situations they are likely to face in the field. This innovative approach results in an immersive and engaging learning experience, which is essential within the current global security context.

The humanitarian sector is facing crises of increasing complexity and severity and the need for expertise has never been greater.  In a sector supported by a rapidly expanding and diverse global workforce, finding experienced candidates and building capacity through quality learning has become more vital than ever.

RedR UK has partnered with Bioforce Institute and Pearson Education, with funding and support from the Humanitarian Leadership Academy, to facilitate the creation of a global standard for professional development that directly meets the needs of the humanitarian sector.
