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 un‑met gaps and challenges.
This role directly supports NORCAP’s mission by advancing international cooperation to protect media freedom and freedom of expression, key enablers of democratic resilience, human rights and human security.
