Logistics & Supply Chain Management
Our Logistics & Supply Chain work is often described as the “backbone” of our field programming. When disasters strike and conflicts devastate communities, our logistics teams respond as quickly and efficiently as possible to minimise suffering and ensure our project teams have the necessary supplies to meet people’s most urgent needs.
