The #humanitarian funding gap was the largest on record in 2023, and funding is set to fall in 2024. Our new report explores the latest #data on global humanitarian assistance, assesses progress by the #GrandBargain on improving humanitarian action, and includes analysis on:    📑 Funding to local and national actors  📑 Humanitarian cash and voucher assistance  📑 #AnticipatoryAction budgets    https://lnkd.in/eYnkBcmR #HumanitarianAid #Localisation #PreArrangedFinance Centre for Disaster Protection, ICVA (International Council of Voluntary Agencies) CALP Network Irwin Loy, The New Humanitarian, Devex, David Ainsworth, Jan Egeland, Michael Koehler, Fionna Smyth, Daniel Coppard, Stephen Chacha, Fran Girling-Morris, Suzanna Nelson-Pollard, Elise Belcher, Mike Pearson, Sarah Unsworth, Una McCarter, Jamie Munn, Ruth McCormack, Crys Chamaa, Lydia Poole Adrian Lovett Inter-Agency Standing Committee (IASC)

With rising demand, improving how #humanitarian funding is delivered to maximise impact is critical. Ahead of the #GrandBargain annual meeting this week, our new report assesses progress on #localisiation, cash and voucher assistance and #AnticipatoryAction budgets. https://lnkd.in/eYnkBcmR

With crises becoming increasingly protracted, the large #humanitarian funding gap is partly due to a lack of political solutions. Action is needed to address underlying drivers and increase multi-year funding and planning.

Growth in #humanitarian cash and voucher assistance is one of the few success stories of the #GrandBargain, but greater focus is needed to ensure local and national actors are not bypassed.

Thanks to Irwin Loy at The New Humanitarian for covering our new report on #HumanitarianAid. In 2023, the #humanitarian funding gap was the largest on record. Tough choices lie ahead, including for the #GrandBargain: https://lnkd.in/eyM2NVuH #Localisation

Immensly proud to have been on the team that produced this report together with Niklas Rieger, Suzanna Nelson-Pollard, Elise Belcher, Simon Murphy, Sarah Unsworth, Tim Molyneux, Georgina Carver, Una McCarter and Matthew O'Brien and everyone else involved. Some highlights: 📉 Humanitarian funding declined in 2023 and is set to decline in 2024 🚨 Protracted crises now make up 91% of funding required for appeals 🌍 4.4% of funding from Grand Bargain donors goes to local and national actors 💵 Cash and voucher assistance declined in volume in 2023

The #humanitarian donor base continued to narrow in 2023, underlining the fragility of a system already under strain.

While remaining historically high, #humanitarian funding stalled in 2023, failing to keep pace with rising demand.

Hot off the press today is our latest analysis on global humanitarian assistance trends: 'Falling Short? Humanitarian funding and reform', which I co-wrote with my amazing colleagues Niklas Rieger, Mike Pearson and Elise Belcher, with support from Sarah Unsworth Simon Murphy Una McCarter Tim Molyneux Georgina Carver We've covered the wider financing trends across the sector and assessed progress on some of the key indicators of humanitarian system reform: how much funding is going to local and national actors, how much progress is being made on cash and voucher assistance, and where we are at on anticipatory action and pre-arranged financing. We hope that this deep-dive helps to stimulate discussions on how to get more quality funding into the hands of first responders and people affected by crises - at a time when budgets have never been so stretched! It's been a busy first month back from mat leave 😊 https://lnkd.in/eECzrGRD

With funding failing to keep pace with rising demand, how can #humanitarian actors ensure the most effective use of limited resources?
