NORCAP works to improve aid to better protect and empower people affected by crisis and climate change. We do this by providing expertise and solutions to humanitarian, development and peacebuilding partners, because we believe working together is the best way to reduce needs, risks and vulnerability over time. We seek and promote more effective ways of working at the global level and in the field. NORCAP's aim is not only to reduce needs, but also to create choice and opportunity for vulnerable people. NORCAP works with and through our partners to improve aid in two complementary ways:
We provide targeted expertise to strengthen our partners' response.
We collaborate with partners to develop solutions to unmet gaps and challenges.
This role is delivered through NORDEM, NORCAP's resource bank for democracy and human rights, and reflects our commitment to strengthening dialogue, confidence-building and early warning capacity across the OSCE region.
The Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe (OSCE) takes a comprehensive approach to security, covering political-military, economic, environmental and human dimensions across its 57 participating States. The OSCE Secretariat in Vienna supports the Chairpersonship and provides operational and policy support to field operations. Within the Secretariat, the Conflict Prevention Centre's Policy Support Service is the main point of contact on field operations, providing analysis, advice and support to the Secretary General and the Chairpersonship, including on the Geneva International Discussions (GID) and related conflict formats.
At NORCAP, we work to better protect and empower people affected by crises and climate change. With expertise in the humanitarian, development and peacebuilding sectors, we collaborate with local, national and international partners on finding solutions to meet the needs of people at risk. NORCAP is part of the Norwegian Refugee Council.
