Our Work

InterAction compiles a list of members responding to a crisis, whether it is a natural disaster or other complex emergency. Crisis lists are initiated based on the scale of the emergency, the likelihood of a response by the U.S. government and U.S.-based NGOs, and the amount of public interest and media coverage. The lists include operational updates of members’ response activities and links to provide assistance to the affected populations.

Crisis lists are also a helpful tool for the media and potential donors looking to see which InterAction members are responding to a particular crisis.

Below is a list of more than 45 InterAction members responding to the Horn of Africa drought crisis.  Scroll down to your favorite charity if you wish to donate.

Elections were held in Ivory Coast in November 2010. Since that time, two candidates have been disputing the outcome and vying for control of the country.

 On Friday, March 11 an 8.9 magnitude earthquake and resulting tsunami devastated parts of northern Japan. Reports indicate that over 10,000 people have lost their lives. Millions of people have been affected by the disaster.

Libya, an oil rich North African country, has been under the control of  Moammar Gadhafi since 1969. After a recent spate of regime changes throughout the region, the Libyan people took to the streets in February to demand that he step down. A violent crisis has ensued.

In Indonesia, concurrent disasters—volcano eruptions in central Java and an earthquake and tsunami off the southern coast of Sumatra—have affected tens of thousands of people.
