On this International Day of Peace, we have joined Bond UK and over 100 UK-based NGOs to call on the UK government to protect international aid. We urge the government to uphold aid spending at 0.58% of GNI and swiftly work towards restoring the official target of 0.7%. If these critical funds are not protected, millions of people across the globe will face severe cuts to essential humanitarian and development programmes. 🌍 At a time when the world is grappling with climate change, food insecurity and increasing poverty, we must not turn away from those in need! Aid is not just about resources, it's about creating the conditions for peace, preventing conflict and supporting people to build better futures.

"On this International Humanitarian Day, let's remember the core principles of humanitarian aid: neutrality, impartiality, and independence. Use your power responsibly, be accountable for your actions, and shun greediness. Humanitarian aid should never be used as a tool for personal gain or political agendas. Aid workers must operate independently, prioritizing the needs of the affected communities. Let's keep the focus on those who need our help the most. #AidWorkersMustOperateIndependently #OfCourseAidWorkersNotTheTarget #HappyInternationalHumanitarianDay #HumanitarianAid #AccountabilityMatters"

2025 ANALYSIS OF GLOBAL CRISES AND NEEDS OVERVIEW OF THE RESOURCES & RESPONSE TRENDS HUMANITARIAN ACTION REPORT In 2025, 305 million people around the world will require urgent humanitarian assistance and protection, as multiple crises escalate with devastating consequences for the people affected by them. Civilians are bearing the brunt of a record number of armed conflicts marked by blatant disregard for international humanitarian and human rights law, including mass atrocities. The Global Humanitarian Overview is an annual assessment of global humanitarian needs and how to respond to them. This document provides an analysis of the drivers of needs and an overview of the resources required to support people targeted for assistance. It also provides an account of the humanitarian system’s collective achievements. The Global Humanitarian Overview 2025 presents an analysis of global crises and needs and the humanitarian plans to address them. The report looks at response trends to strengthen, such as localization, cash, accountability and the changes needed to deliver aid effectively: security and funding. The Report presents a collective picture of humanitarians' achievements and, conversely, what happens when humanitarians are unable to deliver aid. https://lnkd.in/dRC-SDEQ https://lnkd.in/dwFbUUsZ
