Developmental Relief: The European Perspective

This report examines development relief programmes and the values, principles, and activities of European NGOs with respect to incorporating relief and development activities to effectively address humanitarian emergencies.

Based primarily on interviews with 28 European organizations from 12 countries, including 19 NGOs and 5 donor agencies, it also draws from reports, communications, documents, and interviews with networks and think tanks. The report is the second examining NGO practices, while the 2001 Developmental Relief Report concentrated on the U.S.-based approaches, practices and values.
