🔗 Registration:
Today, a major strategic challenge facing the humanitarian sector is the global climate crisis, with an exponential rise in the incidence and intensity of climate-related hazards. The adverse effects of the climate crisis in conflict and displacement-affected areas bring a set of vulnerabilities to populations and communities in addition to the already existing humanitarian needs. In these contexts, where coping mechanisms are exhausted, the absence of climate action renders self-reliance unviable and therefore is a barrier to durable solutions for displaced people. However, there is insufficient and inefficient support for the ones that need it the most, the people displaced in fragile and conflict-affected states.
There is a need to strengthen the systematic integration of climate risks and related measures in humanitarian response. The session will showcase recent developments for climate-sensitive approaches and tools, and how they enable humanitarian outcomes for crisis-affected communities.
The objective of the session is to create a dialogue space with practitioners and stakeholders on the current state, strengths, areas for improvement for climate risks integration and local solutions. The session will showcase recent developments for climate-sensitive approaches and tools, and how they enable humanitarian outcomes for crisis-affected communities. We will discuss how to deliver effective approaches for strengthening humanitarian assistance where climate and displacement crisis are overlapping.
Practitioners from Norwegian Refugee Council (NRC), Climate Center, Mercy Corps, ADAPT, and All India Disaster Mitigation Institute (AIDMI) joined the session to share solutions and field experiences.
Preparedness is needed to move faster than rising temperatures.
