International Development & Humanitarian Assistance
International Disaster Response Management
Delivering Results When Every Minute Matters.
The effects of a disaster are immediate and long-lasting. When disaster strikes, communities are left without basic necessities such as food, water and shelter. Livelihoods are threatened, critical resources diminish and infrastructure crumbles.
Macfadden follows a proven and robust approach to project management that helps coordinate long-term disaster response solutions and strategies to ensure relief operations run smoothly, efficiently and without delay. Supporting the U.S. Agency for International Development’s (USAID) Bureau for Democracy Conflict and Humanitarian Assistance (DCHA), Macfadden serves as the principle humanitarian assistance contractor. We have supported USAID in its response to more than 700 disasters and complex emergencies, including responses to several of the world’s most destructive natural disasters including the Indonesian Tsunami; earthquakes in Haiti and China; flooding in Pakistan; famine in Ethiopia; and the ongoing complex emergency in Darfur, Sudan. In 2010 alone, Macfadden staff members were deployed to 15 countries as part of international disaster response efforts.
