About Voluntary Organisations in Cooperation in Emergencies (VOICE)
VOICE is the largest European humanitarian NGO network, established in 1992, promoting efficient and effective humanitarian action worldwide. With 89 member organizations, VOICE aims to provide a collective voice for principled and people-centered humanitarian action. The network has grown from 7 to 87 members over the years and has celebrated many successes in its work.
VOICE has worked closely with DG ECHO since its inception and has been instrumental in facilitating access to EU humanitarian funding and defending member interests in EU decision-making processes on humanitarian funding and policies. The network has also played a key role in shaping EU humanitarian policy and has advocated for increased funding for humanitarian assistance.
In recent years, VOICE has addressed complex issues such as sanctions and counter-terrorism restrictive measures, which have presented challenges to principled humanitarian action. The network has worked with other civil society organizations to reduce the NPO risk rating in the EU Supra National Risk Assessment on terrorist financing.
VOICE has also been at the forefront of efforts to promote resilience, climate change, and the implementation of the humanitarian-development-peace nexus. The network has created new working groups to address these issues and has worked with EU institutions to ensure that humanitarian needs are prioritized in policy decisions.
In 2022, VOICE celebrated its 30th anniversary and hosted a launch event for the ALNAP State of the Humanitarian System report, which highlighted the challenges facing the humanitarian sector. The network continues to be a key player in shaping EU humanitarian policy and promoting principled and people-centered humanitarian action worldwide.
