What we do
Research is stronger when it is collaborative, practical, and connected to the realities of humanitarian work. Whether you are a researcher, Red Cross Red Crescent staff member, volunteer, partner, or supporter, there are many ways to contribute to the work of RC3.
How we work
RC3 has a Steering Committee to support the consortium in its daily coordination, to make recommendations based on collective consultation, and to represent it, where necessary and as decided by its members. It is composed of 5 to 9 voluntary members that represent the diversity of the Consortium. RC3 also has a coordination team to support its daily work.
