In this episode of The Impact Equation, we sit down with Madlin Sadler, Chief Operating Officer at the International Rescue Committee - an organisation working at the sharpest edge of conflict, disaster and displacement. Madlin offers a rare, inside view of what it means to operate in over 40 of the world’s most crisis-affected countries; where systems have broken down, need is accelerating, and resources are shrinking. Madlin shares what it looks like to deliver vaccines to children in remote conflict zones; how humanitarian organisations make impossible decisions when funding is cut; why evidence, cost-effectiveness, and scale matter when lives are at stake; and why, despite everything, she still feels lucky to do this work.
