Our mission

Helping those who help others

Our mission is the relief and development of people in need anywhere in the world who are victims of conflict, natural disaster, insecurity, or crisis.

 

We accomplish this by providing safety analysis and advice to the dedicated NGOs who put themselves in harm’s way to support such people and communities.

 

By helping those who help others, we do our part to ensure that aid reaches people in need.

How we work

Combining local presence with global reach

INSO works by deploying safety experts, analysts, information managers, trainers, and other specialists across high-risk countries.

 

There we work to understand the context by creating deep local information networks and collecting data to support our range of field services.

 

We aggregate data at the global level to maintain a central incident database and produce cross contextual analysis to support policy & research.
