FOREWORD
Forty-five years ago, RedR was founded on a simple but powerful principle- that technical skills and practical
training can save lives and restore dignity in times of crisis. In a world now marked by escalating conflict,
climate disasters, and shrinking humanitarian resources, that principle has never been more relevant. To
our partners across the engineering community, individual and institutional donors-. your support enables
RedR to respond swiftly and effectively to disasters and crises.
RedR is the leading humanitarian sgen¢y for training in disaster relief and conflict response, equipping
national professionals in their own stricken countries with the additional knowledge and skills th8y need to
grapple with the chaos, confusion and terrors of disasters and wars.
Modern humanitarian response is led by professional responders in their own countries. They are first on
the ground, best placed to lead national and international response.RedR's unique value lies in providing
training and technical assistance that prepares those responders to apply their professional skills within the
shock of humanitarian crises.
This year, RedR r6ached 2.698 training participants across 72 nationalities, equipping frontline responders
with critical skills. From Sudanese organisations navigating unprecedented displacement to Ukrainian waler
utilities maintaining essential services under bombardment, from clifflale adaptation specialists in drought
and flood-prone Afghanistan and Somalia lo engineers assessing blast damage in conflict zones, our work
h8S Strengthened the very foundations of humanitarian effectiveness.
RedR's value is acclaimed by our supporters across industry, by commentators such as the Financial Times
which lists RedR amongst the lop twenty humanitarian organisations, by the active patronage of Dur
President the Princess Royal, and above all by the high demand and ratings of professionals around the
world who have absorbed RedR training this year.
The year 2024-25 has tested the resilience of the humanitarian system. War has affected the lives of millions
through death, starvation, injury, and displacement. Climate disasters struck wilh increasing frequency and
ferocity. As global needs reached unprecedented levels, resources diminished.
Major institutional donors implemented Significant funding cuts, leaving organisations across the
humanitarian ecosystem grappling with how to maintain essential Se￿iceS when they are needed most.
Consequently, RedR conducted a restructure and repriorilisation programme in early 2025 leading to
more sustainable finanGial future.
Within this challenging context. RedR's mission has never been more vital and our impact more tangible.
When systems are stretched, the need for skilled, effective humanitarian dèlivery becomes paramount.
Every crisis reinforces a fundamental truth, that humanitarian response depends notjust on funding, but on
the capacity of those who deliver it.
These achievements extend beyond numbers. We delivered training in nine languages in addition to
English. reflecting our deepening commitment to localisation and our recognition that effective humanitarian
action must be rooted in local contexts and led by thosg closest to crisis. The establishment of Communities
of Practice in Sudan, the launch of grassr()ots organisations like Act for Climate in Afghanistan, and the
cascading of knowledgo through our Training of Trainers programmes all demonstrate the multiplier effect
of investing in local capacity.

Intemally, RedR has undergone its own transformation. We refined our strategic framework for 2025-27
and updated our associate trainer pool lo 200 experts represenling over 40 nationalities across 50 countries.
The stories in this report, from Huda in Sudan reshaping her organisation's training approach, to Ahmad in
Afghanistan founding a new climate initiative, to engineers in Ukraine safeguarding essential services under
bombardment, remind us why RedR's work matters. In a sector often focused on immediate relief. we build
the long-term capacity that ensures humanitarian adion is not only effective in the moment, but sustainable
and locally led for the future.

PROGRAMMES
Humanitarian Services
Investing in a Coordinated, Needs-Based Humanltarian System
RedR contributes towards an inclusive, locally led humanitarian system by equipping frontline responders
with the tools and knowledga they need to deliver safe, effective. and accountable support. Through
Learning Needs Assessments and organisational consultations. our programmes are guided by an
understanding of the priorilies and contexts in which participants operate. Our training supports individuals
and organisations navigate crisis sèttings with confidence. strengthening coordination, managing security
risks, and promoting wellbeing across the sector.
Tallored Support for Sudanese Responders
Since April 2023 more than 11.5 million people have been displaced by the escalation of protracted confflict
in Sudan. In response to the escalating hum8nitarian emergency. RedR played a pivotal role delivering
context-specific support to frontline responders. In partnership with the Humanitarian Academy for
Development (HAD) and under the H2H Network, RedR equipped local actors with the skills tools, and
confidence to respond more safely and effectively.
In collaboration with both intemational and Sudanese experts, RedR and HAD conducted joint leaming
needs and organisational capacity assessmants. Based on these findings, RedR designed and
implemented a comprehensive training programme in Arablc and customised to Sudan's rapidly shifting
operational environment- HAD provided essential organisation81 development support to 21 national NGOS
through tall0￿d coaching and in-person workshops.
RedR's training programme reached 555 humanitarian responders across the country with 28 short,
interactive online modules covering Gore thematic areas identrfied through the learning needs assessment..
Humanitarian Coordination, Needs Assessments, Project Planning, Accountability to Affected Populations.
Introduction to Protection, and Safety, Security, and Wellbeing. We also facilitated a remote Training of

The programme also launched f￿0 WhatsApp-based Communities of Practice to support continued
engagement, learning exchange, and the application of new skills. Participant feedback shows that the
training has significantly improved their ability to assess needs, engage affected communities, and
coordinate more effectively in fragile conditions.
Case Study- Huda Mohammad Al-Khair Al Tayeb, Al-salam Organisation for Care and Development
When conflict in Sudan disrupted in-person training delivery, Huda Mohammad Al-Khair Al Tayeb, General
Manager of Al-salam Organisation for Care and Development, saw an opportunity for transformation.
Detemiined to adapt. Huda enrolled in RedR's Training of Trainers in Humanitarian Emergencies Course to
strengthen her skills and lead Al-salam's transition to online programming.
"This training was a real tuming point," Huda shared. Unlike previous theory-heavy Courses, RedR's training
offered practical tools and strategies Huda could apply immediately. This included shifting to online delivery
and systematising needs assessments, which have supported Al-salam to deliver timely, community-based
training even amid ongoing displacemenl and insecurity-
Participation also connected Huda to a vibrant peer nelwork Éhrough RedR's Community of Practice. which
remains active and self-managed by training alumni. Moving forward, Huda plans to expand her training
efforts across confliGt-affected regions and continue fostering community-led approaches to humanitarian
response.
Scaling Security Management Capacity in Crisi$-Affected Contexts
In Lebanon, where contlict has displaced over a million people since late 2023. RedR launched a tailored
trainirFg initiative to help responders address growing humanitarian needs amidst a deteriorating security
situation. An initial rapid learning needs assessment located gaps in safety, security, and mental health
competencies among local respondents. The project will rollout training sessions, delivered in English and
Arabic, covering Personal Security I Staying Effective {PS I SE}, Security Management for Humaniiarians
{SMH), and coaching sessions for SMH participants. In early 2025, we completed delivery of two online
facilitated training sessions for the first cohorts (English and Arabic) of PS I SE to a total of 13 participants.
Subsequenl cohorts for Ihis module and SMH are scheduled to run in FY2025126. The project is projected
to reach 130 humanitarian responders comprising national and international NGO staff, volunteers, and
civils society ropresantativ@s,' initial feedback indicates high levels of satisfaction, with 1000/0 of suNey
respondents from PS I SE rating the training as 'excellent' or 'good'.
Beyond our bespoke offerings, RedR continued to strengthen broader sectoral capacity in security
management through our open courses. In November 2024, the Security Management for Humanitarians
open course brought together 19 participants from Ukraine. Jordan. and the United Kingdom. The eight-
session online course focused on managing security in emergencies through participatory methods and a
realistic simulation activity. Feedback highlighted the immediate relevance and impact of the training:
°Thanks to everyone. I feel this was a very good use of tin7e, my skills have developed. and l am in a better
posrfion to consider secun'ty as it applies to my organisation."
Advancing Sectoral Learning Through Tools and Resource Development
RedR is committed to strengthening the humanitarian ecosyslem not only through immèdiate training
responses, but through resource development. Central to this commitment is our focus on the design and
dissemination of tools and learning approaches that encourage evidence-based decision-making and
promote knowledge exchange. We aim to narrow the gap between information and action by developing
practical tools, nurturing analytical skills, and investing in inGSusive knowledge-sharing platforms.

This included two in-person cohorts of the Essentials of Humanitarian Data Analysis (EHDA) course in
Nairobi and Amman, 8nd a condensed 10-hour blended version. The curriculum introduced key concepts
in qualitative and quantitative data analysis, prioritising reflective, ethical decision-making in humanitarian
contexts. An embedded Training of Trainers compon8nt also enabled partlGipants to cascade knowledge
within their organisations. Feedback for EHDA wa5 resoundingly positive, one participant reflected..
'The mode of interactivily of the session and the wonderful sglf-paced online modules were oufstanding."
'EHDA is a great Gourse, especially with the examples and interactive activities that it has. The way of
presonting the information and the examp188 were very strong and linked to the topic.
RedR also designed and delivered targeted short modules focusing on Data Collection Methods in
emergencies and developing effective Monitoring and Evaluation Plans for Anticipatory Action. These
offerings addressed an identified gap in early warning and preparedness systems. particularly among local
actors.
The project was lerminated in 2025 as part of USAID cuts. In total, the consortium trained 244 humanitarian
practitioners across local NGOS, civil society organisations. and government bodies. Over 1,200
applications wera received for the available training spaces. reflecting strong global demand. PartiGipant
feedback consistently highlighted the accessibility, relevance, and quality of the training content, many citing
increased confidence in applying data analysis to real-world programming and a readiness to share learning
with their colleagues.

Case Study- Ahmad Omari, Act for Climate (A4C)
Ahmad Omari, a graduate of RedR's CCA DRR course in Afghanistan has gone on to transform learning
into tangible community impact. Ahmad, a climate expert with a background in vulnerability assessments
and disaster risk reduction, plans to apply the knowledge and tools gained through the training to launch a
series of awareness campaigns, community greening initiatives, and capacity strengthening activities
focused on climate resilience.
'This course has fundamentally changed my perception of disaster risk reduction and its impact on
communities. I now see climate adaptation as a collaborative effort requiring continuous leaming,
engagement, and proactive strategigs to safeguard vulnerable populations. My Gommitment to climate
action has deep8ned, and l am eager to expand my expertise to address emerging challenges in the field.,
Following his participation in both the 7-week core course and TOT module, Ahmed founded Act for Climate
(A4C), a new grassroots organisation committed to inclusive climate action. In 2024125, A4C delivered it
first independently funded training in partnership with the Society of Afghan Women Engineers, also
founded by a CCA DRR alumna, reaching over 45 participants across Afghanistan.

Shelter Recovery and Reslllence in Ukraine
For several years RedR has worked to strengthen local capacity for conflicl recovery and shelter resilience
in Ukraine through a portfolio of practical, scalable training initiatives. With widespread damage to housing
and crttical infrastructure, compounded by a limited pool of certrfied professionals remaining in country, the
need for technically sound, cost-effective repair solutions has never been greater. In partnership with the
Ramboll Foundation, Helvet8s, and technical experts including Arup, RedR delivered two rnutually
reinforcing training programmes this year that are enabling communities and institutions to lead recovery
efforts.
In Ukraine, RedR strengthened national capacity to assess, repair, and restore conflict-damaged housing
and critical infrastruclure through our Community-Led Shelter Assistance Iraining programme, with support
from Ramboll Found8lion and Helvelas. The programme was grounded in a comprehensive learning needs
assessmentthat involved over 400 organisations. Findings from the LNA informed the development of three
bespoke training modules tailored to the realities of conflict-affected communities and continues to inform
sector-wide learning and capacity strenglhening efforts. The bespoke training modules were then delivered
to five separate training cohorts, consisting of three sessions each, via a mix of live, self-paced and hybrid
formats to accommodate fluctuations security conditions in the country.
In total, 88 individuals from Ukrainian civil society organisations completed Ihe resulting training, comprising
damage assessments, construction management. and humanitarian engineering principles. Supported by
G8rtificalion, take-home materials, and a comprehensive LNA report, the programme contributed lo safe,
Gommunity-led shelter recovery while strengthening long-term local capacity tor emergency response and
reconstrudion.
In parallel, RedR delivered rounds of specialist Damage Assessment Training programme in spring
2024, aimed at addressing a Grilic81 shortage of engineers qualified to assess blast-damaged infrastruclure.
Originally piloted in 2023, the training, also funded by Ramboll Foundation, supports Ukraine's three official
Damage Assessment Commissions by upskilling local engineers and technical staff. These commissions
play a pivotal role evaluating the structural integrty and determining appropriate repair strategies for blast-
affected buildings.
RedR delivered a fac&to-face training in Odessa for 15 participants, alongside a larger blended-format
course Ihal reached 141 local professionals, totalling 160 hours of instruction. Course content was
developed in collaboration with engineers from Ramboll and Arup. and addresses critical gaps in technical
capacity, with an emphasis on equipping non-certified and junior engineers to carry out assessments in line
with national legislation and international best practica.
Taken together, these programmes contribute to safer shelter recovery and improved housing outcomes in
Ukraine, supporting local actors to lead ￿constructIon efforts with the skills and tools they need.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025
Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design
procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of
irregularities. including fraud. The extent to which our Pro￿dureS are capable of detecting irregularities,
inc]uding fraud is detailed below..
Enquiry of management and those charged with govemance about actual and potential litigation or
claims and the identification of non-compliance with laws and regulations.
Reviewing minutes of meetings of those charged with governance.
Reviewing financial statemènt disclosures and testing lo supporting documentation to assess
compliance with applicable laws and regulations.
Auditing the risk of management override of controls, including testing journal entries and other
adjustments for appropriateness. assessing whether the judgements made in making accounting
estimates are indicative of a potential bias. and evaluating the business rationale of any significant
transactions that are unusual or outside the normal course of business.
Performing analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected relationships that may
indicate risks of material misstatement due to fraud.
Professional scepticism in course of the audit and with audit sampllng in material audit areas.
Because of Ihe inherent limitations of an audit, there is a risk that we will not detect all irregularities, including
those leading to a material misstatement in the financial statements or non-compliance with regulation. This
risk increases the more that compliance with 818w or re9u18tion is removed from the events and transactions
reflected in the financial statements, as we will be less likely to become aware of instances of non-
compliance. The risk is also greater regarding irregularilies occurring due to fraud rather than error. as
fraud involves intentional concealment, forgery, collusion, omission or misrepresentalion.
A further description of our responsibililies is available on the Financial Reporting Council's webstte at..
www.frc.or .uklaudilorsres
onsibilities. This description forms part of our auditor's report.
Use of our report
This report is made solely to the charitable company's members, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3
of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the
charitable company's members those matters we are required to state lo them in an auditor's report and for
