This MRC Strategic Plan 2019-2030 centres on the concept of resilience. It advocates a shift in thinking and practice, recognising the need for better coherence in the areas of disaster management, climate change, and development work. This approach aims to increase effectiveness of MRC’s humanitarian role and work done in Disaster Risk Management.
The Plan sets broad objectives against 2030 aligned with the Sustainable Development Goals and is structured around four-year results frameworks that allow MRC to measure its progress, course-correct where needed, and update its approach every four years while keeping the 2030 goals in sight.

Towards Reslience
MRC's Strategic Plan is organized around six strategic priorities. Together, they cover the full scope of MRC's humanitarian mandate in the Maldives from the moment an emergency response, to the long-term work of building communities that can withstand whatever comes next. etc etc
Priority 1 - Strengthen Emergency Response
The primary focus of the first strategic priority area is emergency response, a crucial component of MRC’s disaster risk management efforts in the Maldives. Mandated by the MRC Law 07/2009, MRC plays a key role as an auxiliary body to the state, responding to emergencies and disasters nationwide in close collaboration with stakeholders such as the National Disaster Management Authority (NDMA) and first response agencies. This priority area leverages MRC’s existing capacity, experience, and strengths in providing emergency response services through community-based emergency response teams (ERTs).
Priority 2 - Strengthen First Aid & Psychosocial Support
This priority area builds on MRC’s established role and expertise in delivering First Aid and Psychosocial Support Services (PSS) within emergency response frameworks.
