This is the Fund’s first review of the contribution and participation of partners in Start Fund responses. Here, partners are defined as local or national NGOs that are not formal members of the Network but are involved in Start alerts. This learning review was commissioned as the result of a recommendation in the 2017 ‘The Start Fund, Start Network and Localisation’ report. It explores how members identify and maintain their partners, as well as how partners contribute to the Fund’s projects - from design to decision-making, implementation, and learning.

This product is based on a review of project reports and learning exchanges during Alert 151 to 202 (Apr 2017 - Dec 2017) and on 19 key informant interviews with members (9) and their partners (10). For the period of analysis, Start Fund MEAL was provided by World Vision UK.
