90 Years of the IRC’s Partnerships: Making a difference together (International Rescue Committee) 

August 17, 2023


IRC mentions IFPRI in an article on its anniversary featuring organization’s history, achievements, and partnerships over the past 90 years.  

“Over the last 90 years, the IRC has generated or partnered in the creation of more impact research in conflict zones than any other organization.” 

“Google supported the IRC’s 2021 Anticipatory Action project in Nigeria, which was conducted in collaboration with the International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI). This project evaluated the use of early warning systems and anticipatory cash as a means of mitigating the impacts of disaster, promoting food security and building resilience to climate shocks in agricultural regions of Northeastern Nigeria. The results of this project are promising and have inspired the IRC to consider using anticipatory action to advance climate programming and research to meet humanitarian needs in other vulnerable communities”.
