About us
Who we are
We are the Global Network of Civil Society Organisations for Disaster Reduction (GNDR), the largest global network of organisations committed to working together to improve the lives of people affected by disasters worldwide. Established in 2007, we have grown into a network of more than 2,000 member organisations across 130+ countries, representing millions of people on the frontlines of hazards, climate change and mass displacement. Through transformative, evidence-led programming and powerful advocacy, we are driving climate action and disaster resilience alongside our members across the globe.
Our culture and values
Our values guide our work with colleagues, members and other partner organisations:
1- Trust and openness to listen, share and learn
2- Transparency and mutual accountability
3- Equity and respect for diverse identities, needs and perspectives
Equality, diversity and inclusion policy
We strive to foster a sense of belonging and empowerment among our diverse staff and the communities we collaborate with. This enables us to work creatively and collaboratively, to innovate and to inspire in order to successfully deliver our work.
We aim to recruit and retain people from all backgrounds and identities without discriminating against any characteristics.
This includes ethnicity, race, gender, religion or belief, language, abilities, nationality or citizenship, socio-economic background, sexual orientation, marital or partnership status or any other characteristic.
We have policies that help us shape our working culture.
