Access the Virtual Teams Toolkit

Humanitarian leaders working with dispersed teams often face unique challenges, including cultural and linguistic barriers, time zone differences, and the emotional toll of crisis-driven work. To encourage collaborative learning across the sector, we’ve compiled the Virtual Team Toolkit, featuring:

• Global Team Profiles including department segmentation and tech stack information from notable humanitarian organizations including Mercy Ships and Catholic Relief Services
• Sample communication and social media guidelines for virtual teams
• Principles and tips used by Oxfam for adapting team management to hybrid work
• Examples of remote and hybrid work policies

By integrating these insights and resources into your virtual team strategy, you can unlock new levels of collaboration and impact. Whether you’re bridging cultural divides, enhancing team resilience, or optimizing technology, these tools are designed to empower leaders in the humanitarian sector.
