The humanitarian health crisis in Venezuela is a widespread media topic. However, what is really going on in the country? Accounts of this drama are based on limited reports mainly from people leaving the country and international players, potentially holding their own political agenda. On the other hand, objective accounts are also challenged by the difficulties in getting true responses in a context of citizens fearful of sharing their opinions to an interviewer by using any traditional fielding approach. To overcome these limitations, three independent research agencies, Fine Research, Reckner Healthcare and Toluna, joined efforts by putting together their HCPs (Fine/Reckner) and general population (Toluna) panels in a pro bono initiative to provide Save The Children with unbiased information that will help them improve the delivery of their projects at the country's borders.

The 2019 marks 25 years since the horrific genocide in Rwanda. SURF Survivors Fund, the charity set up to help survivors of the genocide, were well aware of the challenges this milestone presented. Rwanda still has huge and immediate needs - SURF works to enable survivors to finish interrupted education, to repair family homes which have deteriorated over time, to help widows who still carry the physical and psychological scars of the events of 1994. Yet the corollary of this was a great sense of responsibility on the shoulders of the charity's management. How to best communicate the scale and depth of the current need to the contemporary audience - despite the distance in a time of a quarter of a century?
Unrequested and often unsuitable goods sent to humanitarian disaster zones, often classified as Unsolicited Bilateral Donations (UBDs), cause disruption. In June 2017, a project was launched to reduce the number of UBDs from Australia. At the time, there was no existing research on motivations for this phenomenon, and so the crucial first step was to gain an in-depth understanding of the behaviour. The unique and impactful findings from this study now offer new foundations for public messaging to effectively reduce the number of UBDs sent from Australia. Next steps are to raise global awareness of the findings and translate into communications to reduce the disruptive impact of UBDs sent to humanitarian crises zones.
