Innovating new ways forward to address the impact of global instability at the local level
Global crises don't stay overseas, they crash into communities as local injustices and breakdown longstanding institutions. Pragmatic Panic bridges this gap by combining direct, front line legal and support services with systemic policy advocacy. We pragmatically address the immediate crisis for our clients and partners while fighting to increase stability, and to restore international and domestic norms around the rule of law that keep communities safe.
Our Programs

Justice for USAID
Thousands of USAID employees—public servants who built careers serving others in war zones, disaster areas, and global crises— dedicated their careers to advancing U.S. values and saving lives around the world. Now their own government has terminated them without due process. Their dismissals violate federal laws and betray basic fairness. We’re raising funds for legal action to hold the U.S. government accountable.
