The ADSP 2023-2025 Strategy aims to strengthen and elevate ADSP’s ability to deliver impact in the region. The development of a Theory of Change and three-year strategy for ADSP commenced in April 2022, and was further clarified through a Strategy Development workshop held in Dubai, UAE in November 2022. The strategy was developed to ensure clearer articulation of ADSP’s value-add, and ADSP’s ability to support its member agencies and, most importantly, displaced communities in the region.
ADSP is a small, focused platform, working where the collective input of member organisations can add specific value. ADSP’s strategy for 2023-2025 is deliberately contained, reflected in its overall logic the impact the Platform intends to make through coherent, evidence-based actions. For this reason, ADSP work streams for the Afghanistan and Myanmar displacement crises differ in terms of their direction, scope and stakeholder approach. This reflects notable differences between these situations, the operating environment, political considerations and engagement of decision makers in finding solutions. ADSP’s work on both streams endeavours to be relevant, accessible, and to build on – rather than duplicate – processes and systems already in place.
