Amplifying NGO Engagement and Leadership for Principled Humanitarian Action Cooperative agreement to support the humanitarian policy and practice program of InterAction and improve coordination, professionalism, and global representation by the U.S. NGO community in humanitarian action that saves lives and alleviates human suffering of disaster-affected people while abiding by humanitarian principles. The program focuses on improving the operational practice and policy engagement of InterAction members in the sectors of humanitarian coordination and information management, shelter and settlements, and protection.

Influencing Policy and Practice to Enhance Civilian Protection in Armed Conflict In the coming 12 months, InterAction will design a Results-Based Protection Learning Network as a platform for operational humanitarian NGOs and interested donors (donor governments and private foundations) to invest in putting results-based methods for protection outcomes into practice and to share and document learning that arises from these efforts. This involves research of other models of communities of practice and innovation networks as well as consultations with key stakeholders to establish an agreed learning agenda and to develop the structure and membership criteria of the
Learning Network. 

Efforts to systematise results-based methods will be further reinforced through InterAction support for the implementation of the forthcoming IASC Protection Policy expected to be adopted in mid-2016, in particular to catalyze early momentum for NGO engagement in its roll out and implementation in key country contexts. The expectation is that this will set the tone, expectations and impetus for rigorous policy implementation in the medium to longer term.

Lastly, InterAction seeks to enhance the U.S. policy discourse on the protection of civilians by convening key policy stakeholders on critical protection concerns faced  in current crises. The roundtables and the outcome reports from each roundtable  are expected to help ensure that the specific protection issues selected are addressed by policy makers and humanitarian actors in an informed manner and with a view to maximising measures to mitigate civilian harm.

Improving and Expanding Our Responses to a New Policy Landscape that Threatens to Undermine the Global Missions and Oper An unprecedented number of executive orders and actions have defined the early weeks of the Trump administration, including changes in requirements to global women’s health provisions, and immediate travel bans on residents from certain countries. Many such directives affect the missions and operational capacities of American NGOs abroad and here at home.

Civil society’s role and responsibility in this increasing hostile environment are vital. InterAction is undertaking a bold response that extends beyond our traditional purview while leveraging our in-depth professional expertise. We intend to broaden our focus on several areas: domestic concerns and programs, our most at-risk members, and affirming their core values, right and principles. Thus, we are embarking on a three-pronged strategy to respond to and counter the large scale, multi-faceted threats to our sector’s work and our shared democratic values: 
•	Coordinating and amplifying communications platforms
•	Focused support and advocacy for at-risk vulnerable NGOs 
•	Importing practical lessons from abroad

Strengthening U.S. Leadership on Global Food and Nutrition Security (Phase III) U.S. leadership for global food and nutrition programming has increased in recent years as evidenced by the elevation of the Feed the Future program as one of the signature global development initiatives of President Obama. Building on this momentum and emerging opportunities to further enhance global food and nutrition programming, InterAction seeks to continue to broaden and strengthen key stakeholder awareness and engagement in agriculture-focused investment initiatives. Through a comprehensive and integrated approach, the project will broaden and better align key stakeholders for greater impact. This approach leverages the influence and collective engagement of a variety of multi-sector stakeholders to increase awareness, promote intelligent discussion, and increase public exposure to advance the global food and nutrition agenda. This strategy includes the flexibility needed to effectively adapt to unexpected challenges and leverage opportunities with the greatest potential to increase U.S. leadership.

1.	Preserve U.S. ODA levels, and improve the overall regulatory environment around ODA policy and priorities, and

Accelerating the Accessibility, Reliability, Sharing and Utilization of Agricultural Investment Data This project aims to increase the amount of high quality, timely, and standardized data on agricultural investments in order to make those investments more effective. To do this, the project will propose changes or extensions to the International Aid Transparency Initiative (IATI) standard to make that standard more relevant and useful for agricultural investment decision making. It will also seek to increase the number and types of organizations reporting on those investments. 

As part of this project, InterAction and its current partners (additional partners will be identified as the project progresses) will undertake five major activities:
1. Formalize the Agricultural Investment Data Community of Practice / Establish the IATI Agriculture Working Group
  
2. Conduct a landscape analysis and stakeholder consultations to inform development of the “IATI agriculture standard” and tools: The landscape analysis will be used to produce a comprehensive inventory of the agricultural investment data that is currently available. The stakeholder analysis will be used to gain insights into the agricultural investment decisionmaking practices and data needs of four groups of stakeholders: NGOs, foundations, bilateral and multilateral donors, and local stakeholders in the project’s two focus countries: Ethiopia and Tanzania. 

3. Develop recommendations on changes or extensions to the IATI standard: Our goal will be to produce a standard that is feasible, useful, and widely adopted and, ultimately, that is actually used to guide agricultural investment decisionmaking.

4. Provide data producers with technical assistance and develop or adapt tools for data publication and use: A major component of this project will be the provision of technical assistance to data producers, and the development/adaptation of tools to help organizations produce, and possibly use, agricultural investment data.

5. Promote adoption of the IATI agriculture standard and use of related tools
Narrative Project Adoption Support US This project supports InterAction effort to shape a more effective narrative framework for the global development sector.

The end goal is to help the public better understand the importance and impact of global development.
Increasing Social Sector Thought Leadership: A Civil Society Outreach Strategy Aligned with our aim to strengthen the capacity of global civil society leaders, InterAction will undertake an outreach initiative that will raise the awareness of the Bellagio Residency program among social sector practitioners around the world. The Bellagio Residency program offers the opportunity for leaders to reflect on their role in social change; by offering the asset of the program to a broader range of participants we can move forward a related InterAction goal of strengthening civil society's thought leadership. 

InterAction will lead and coordinate an outreach initiative targeting eligible individuals by tapping leaders in our member organizations, partner networks, and engaging past program participants from the social sector. The outreach awareness building efforts will result in a demonstrable increase in the program's quantity, quality, and geographic spread of residency applications from this target audience. 

Additionally, our related objective is to increase awareness and raise the profile of the Bellagio Residency program among civil society networks around the world. This effort also includes providing the Bellagio Center program with guidance on attracting transformative leaders within the social sector.
