A collective outcome is a concrete and measurable result that humanitarian, development and other relevant actors want to achieve jointly over a period of 3-5 years to reduce people鈥檚 needs, risks and vulnerabilities and increase their resilience. They have the potential to bring humanitarian and development actors closer together. As such, collective outcomes neither purely refer to life-saving humanitarian action nor longer-term development outcomes. Instead, the focus is on collective outcomes at the point where humanitarian and development action meet. They provide a common vision that aims to build a bridge between short-term assistance, medium-term outcomes and long-term development programming and financing.
