Country-Based Pooled Funds The NGO perspective
The study also builds on NRC’s 2017 report, Understanding Humanitarian Funds. It endeavours to determine whether NGOs still feel CBPFs are fit for purpose, particularly in terms of Grand Bargain commitments to reduce the earmarking of donor contributions, increase multi-year disbursements and improve local and national humanitarians’ access to funding. It also discusses ways to reduce the administrative burdens on recipient organisations, and governance and decision-making issues.
