This year, Start Network will be leading three sessions to convene diverse voices from our membership, donors, and partners to discuss key issues in the humanitarian sector.
The localisation of humanitarian action has been the subject of humanitarian policy and practice discussions for more than a decade. In recent years, many governments and donors have reaffirmed their commitments to localisation, including FCDO, USAID and ECHO who have either published or are currently developing guidelines and strategies to realise these commitments.
This Humanitarian Networks and Partnerships Week 2024 session, ‘Anticipatory Action and Disaster Risk Management: Impact, Opportunities, and Way Forward’ unpacked the role of anticipatory action in disaster risk management, and how different stages of the crisis management cycle interact and can positively reinforce one another to have more timely, adequate and dignified responses.
Start Network will be at this year’s Humanitarian Networks and Partnerships Weeks (HNPW) to showcase learning from our programmes and advocate for more locally led and anticipatory action in the humanitarian sector.
At the Humanitarian Networks and Partnerships Week (HNPW), we are bringing diverse voices from our global network and key allies to challenge the humanitarian status quo.
