At Terre des hommes, our emergency response teams are primarily involved in Level 3 crises, which are known as "serious humanitarian crises". These crises are of natural or human origin and are characterized by extensive violence, population displacement, widespread damage to society and the economy, and the need for significant humanitarian aid. To determine the level of crisis, Tdh refers to the OCHA and ACAPS classifications. Level 2 crises are taken into consideration only if Tdh teams are already present in the area, for example in the case of the 2018 Kerala floods in India.
