This organization does not claim to have new or novel way of responding to disasters, however their uniqueness lies in the sheer number of disasters of all sizes they respond to. This is best characterized by the information found on their page titled "Disaster Relief," which states the following:

"We respond to an emergency every 8 minutes

No one else does this: not the government, not other charities. From small house fires to multi-state natural disasters, the American Red Cross goes wherever we’re needed, so people can have clean water, safe shelter and hot meals when they need them most."

  2. Analisys of laws and policies pertaining to humanitarian aid and its implimentation 
  3. Past humanitarian efforts were studied to show that gender based violence can be a major humanitarian problem that is not readily dealt with.
