Key points

  • The global humanitarian system is reaching its limits due to the increasing frequency and intensity of conflicts and natural disasters.
  • There is an urgent need for more predictable, flexible, and timely funding to close the gap between humanitarian needs and available resources.
  • Humanitarian action must place protection at its core, specifically addressing the rights of women, children, and marginalized groups.
  • A stronger link between humanitarian aid and long-term development cooperation is essential to build community resilience.
