Wings of Aid & Peace (WAP) works across interconnected areas of humanitarian response, recovery, resilience and peacebuilding.
Our programme framework is designed to help us understand and respond to the different challenges facing crisis-affected communities while keeping people, dignity, participation and accountability at the centre of our work.
Humanitarian crises rarely create a single challenge.
Conflict, displacement and other emergencies can affect people's access to food, water, healthcare, education, shelter, protection and livelihoods at the same time. They can also weaken community systems, increase protection risks and place additional pressure on already vulnerable households.
WAP therefore seeks to understand humanitarian needs in their wider context.
Depending on assessed needs, operational capacity and available resources, our programmes may combine complementary interventions or connect immediate humanitarian assistance with appropriate recovery, resilience and peacebuilding approaches.
WAP seeks to support timely, needs-based humanitarian action for people and communities affected by emergencies.
Emergency interventions may address urgent needs according to the nature of the crisis, assessed priorities, organizational capacity and available resources.
Crisis can disrupt food access, income, productive assets and livelihoods.
WAP seeks to support vulnerable households in meeting essential needs while, where appropriate, strengthening livelihoods, productive capacity and opportunities for recovery and greater self-reliance.
Conflict, displacement and emergencies can disrupt access to healthcare and increase health risks.
WAP seeks to support appropriate health interventions based on identified needs, programme capacity and coordination with relevant actors.
Humanitarian crises can increase the risk of malnutrition, particularly among people facing heightened vulnerability
WAP seeks to contribute to appropriate nutrition interventions, awareness, identification of needs and relevant support or referral approaches according to programme design and capacity.
Access to safe water, appropriate sanitation and good hygiene practices is essential for health, dignity and well-being.
WAP seeks to support context-appropriate WASH interventions that respond to identified needs and strengthen safer practices within crisis-affected communities.
Conflict, displacement and emergencies can interrupt education and reduce access to safe learning opportunities.
WAP seeks to support appropriate education interventions that help crisis-affected children, young people and communities maintain or restore access to learning.
Humanitarian crises can expose people to increased risks of violence, exploitation, abuse, exclusion and other forms of harm.
WAP seeks to integrate protection considerations into its work and support appropriate protection interventions according to identified needs, organizational capacity and applicable referral arrangements.
Displacement, conflict and disasters can leave families without adequate shelter or essential household items.
WAP seeks to support appropriate shelter and non-food item interventions based on assessed needs, vulnerability and operational capacity.
Conflict can weaken trust and relationships within and between communities.
Where appropriate to context and programme objectives, WAP seeks to support community dialogue, conflict-sensitive approaches, peaceful coexistence and locally informed initiatives that strengthen social cohesion.
The effects of crisis can continue long after immediate humanitarian needs emerge.
WAP seeks, where appropriate, to support early-recovery approaches that help communities restore essential capacities, strengthen livelihoods and move toward greater stability and resilience.
Environmental pressures and climate-related hazards can deepen existing vulnerabilities and affect livelihoods, food security, water access and displacement. WAP seeks to integrate appropriate resilience considerations into relevant programmes and support locally informed approaches that help communities prepare for and adapt to changing risks.
WAP seeks to develop programmes through a structured process that connects humanitarian needs with realistic interventions and measurable results.
Humanitarian programmes must consider both intended benefits and potential unintended consequences.
WAP seeks to integrate appropriate protection, safeguarding, PSEA, inclusion and Do No Harm considerations throughout programme design and implementation.
Programme teams should consider potential risks to affected people and establish appropriate measures to prevent, identify and respond to concerns.
WAP seeks to use Monitoring, Evaluation, Accountability and Learning (MEAL) to understand whether programmes are being implemented as intended and what they are achieving.
Depending on programme requirements, this may include:
Public results should be based on verified and approved programme information.
WAP's programme mix may vary between locations because humanitarian needs, risks, capacities and operational conditions differ.
Programme decisions should therefore be based on appropriate contextual and needs analysis rather than assuming that the same intervention is suitable everywhere.
Visitors can explore WAP's approved operational presence and related programmes through our Where We Work section.
Programmes define broad areas of humanitarian work. Projects translate those priorities into specific interventions with defined objectives, locations, implementation periods, activities, target populations and expected results.
WAP's Projects section provides information about approved projects and verified results where available.
WAP recognizes that responsible partnerships can strengthen technical expertise, coordination, local knowledge, programme capacity and learning.
Where appropriate, we seek collaboration with communities and relevant humanitarian, development, civil society and institutional actors according to clearly understood responsibilities and organizational requirements.
Only approved partnerships should be publicly associated with individual programmes or projects.
Approved assessments, programme reports, evaluations, fact sheets, research and other relevant publications may be made available through WAP's Resource Library.
Connecting programme pages with related evidence helps strengthen transparency, learning and access to information.
WAP seeks to develop humanitarian programmes that are:
Our programmes provide the framework through which WAP seeks to translate humanitarian purpose into practical action. We aim to understand needs, work with communities, deliver responsibly, measure progress and learn—while connecting immediate assistance with opportunities for recovery, resilience and peace wherever appropriate.
