The survey is part of a study led by ALNAP, which every two years assesses the overall performance and progress of the international humanitarian system. Your responses will be compiled with those of other aid practitioners working in humanitarian settings around the world, and will help inform the final report: State of the Humanitarian System 2012. The report will be read by policy makers and practitioners in aid organisations and governments.
This is an anonymous survey. You will not be asked to enter your name, but you will be asked what type of organisation you work for and where. The individual responses will be kept confidential; the report will not attribute any response to any specific person, organisation, or country of operation.
The 29 questions below should be answered in relation to a specific humanitarian response that you are working in now, or where you worked during the past two years. There are opportunities throughout the questionnaire to elaborate on your answers with brief written comments, and this is encouraged but not required.
