By 2030, stakeholders will increasingly create alliances, integrate their structures for mutual benefit, and build on shared interests and objectives. An acceleration of alliances between NGOs and new actors will create a networked way of working in the humanitarian system, creating interdependence and strengthening connections between actors.

Key insights

• NGOs will have to be part of more diverse alliances to continue to be relevant and access resources

• Alliances will be among organizations with similar objectives though they are still likely to face the challenge of cultural tensions
