Situations We Are Monitoring

Crescendo International continuously monitors humanitarian crisis’s.   Each week we summarize our findings by urgency and by how the situation is trending.  We also make response recommendations to our clients.  We focus on high risk countries, vulnerable to shocks, where the event looks to surpass local capacity.  Our intent is to an informed resource for all international and local actors.  Our reports are concise and therefore not comprehensive to all areas needing humanitarian response.

We rely on multiple local sources and we draw on fast moving information sources, including:

The New Humanitarian

Thomson Reuters Foundation

Relief Web

acaps

Global Disaster Alerts and Coordination System (GDACS)

World Health Organization

United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs
