Leading by example: One year into the Donor Declaration and charter on Climate and Environment
Aquarium
This session will take stock of the implementation of the Donor Declaration one year on from its launch at the European Humanitarian Forum 2022, and discuss how to bridge the needs expressed by the signatories of the Climate and Environment Charter.
The session seeks to reaffirm the commitment to the Donor Declaration from the signatories, namely helping humanitarian organisations to fulfill their own commitments enshrined in the Climate and Environment Charter for Humanitarian Organisations.
Reaching those who suffer most: Understanding severity of needs
Aquarium
This session aims to build awareness and commitment to the analysis of severity of needs as a precondition for principled, transparent and accountable prioritization of the humanitarian response. The session will discuss what we can learn from current efforts to understand severity of needs (e.g. IPC, JIAF, GPC, UNHCR-WFP Joint Hub on Targeting), and what we still need to put in place to secure a severity of needs analysis that allows for effective prioritization. Ultimately, the session will bring forward recommendations for humanitarian partners on expanding and deepening severity of needs analysis and connecting it with decision-making around prioritization, including between crises.
