The Start Network is a global network of national and international humanitarian organisations which seeks to transform the humanitarian sector to be more collaborative, decentralised and diverse. This includes the Start Fund: a multi-donor pooled funding mechanism that provides small-scale funding (up to £1 million for a crisis, with projects implemented within a 45 day window) to frontline NGOs. The Fund seeks to complement the existing humanitarian financing system by focusing on initial rapid response to low-profile, underfunded emergencies Show less
