PARTNERSHIP PROFILES
It was a record year in 2022, in terms of overall
fundraising for the IFRC for the benefit of National
Societies. Whether through funding, in-kind or
provision of services and knowledge, the IFRC’s
partners provided invaluable support in 2022.
The ‘top donor’ tables in the preceding pages
are a valuable measure of support provided to
the IFRC, but the IFRC’s work with donors is far
more complex, based on strategic and long-term
engagement to create meaningful partnerships.
While working to strengthen relationships with
partners, the IFRC is also introducing new ways
to engage, including the creation of multi-year
global platforms that take a locally implemented
but globally coordinated approach. These plat-
forms enable partners to engage with the IFRC
on specific thematic areas, to support in unique
or multiple contexts, thereby ensuring increasing
local impact and progress towards global goals.
In its efforts to diversify its donor base, increase
agility and adapt to become ever more effective,
the IFRC has also increased its engagement with
the private sector, and looked for ways to engage
in more public-private sector partnerships
including through innovative financing.
Global platforms
Global Climate
Resilience Platform
The Global Climate Resilience Platform is
an innovative five-year, 1 billion Swiss franc
mechanism to fund the scaling up of local and
community-based climate action in many of the
100 countries most vulnerable to climate risks. Its
goal is to reduce the current and future human-
itarian impacts of climate change and support
people to adapt in the face of it. The Platform
will support three focus areas, selected on their
ability to deliver transformative adaptation in
the most vulnerable communities: Early Warning
and Anticipatory Action, Safety Nets and Shock
Responsive Social Protection and Nature-based
Solutions.
The platform was formally launched by the
IFRC, together with the Egyptian Minister for
Social Solidarity, at COP27. The event featured
high-level representatives from the African
Union, USAID and the Dutch government, in
addition to the Secretary General of the Trinidad
and Tobago Red Cross and a youth climate activ-
ist from Bangladesh.
The event was an opportunity to highlight the
supporters of the Platforms who made initial
investments into the Platform, including
