Social protection across the humanitarian-development nexus

A game changer in supporting people through crises

Väljaande metaandmed

Humanitarian crises are becoming more frequent, severe, complex and protracted. In 2017, an estimated 201 million people were in need of humanitarian assistance. Many countries requiring assistance are affected by multiple and compounded crises, such as conflict, natural disasters and forced displacement. Crises are lasting longer: two thirds of international humanitarian assistance now goes to long-term recipients. Besides, forced displacement is witnessed on unprecedented scale, reaching over 68 million forcibly displaced persons. As a result, the humanitarian system is under strain. Response capacity is stretched while the funding gap is widening. Alternatives need to be thought through. Against this background, international commitments, such as the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and the Grand Bargain, forge closer links between humanitarian and development programming. Social protection interventions are a promising avenue for common action. This approach is rooted in the growth of social protection systems in low- and middle-income countries, the increasing use of cash transfers as a humanitarian response modality, and robust evidence of the efficacy of social protection and social transfers in both development and crisis contexts. Significant gains can be made by working with social protection systems and approaches. There is now a clear international consensus to maximise the use of social protection systems and approaches in fragile and conflict-affected environments to provide more effective, efficient and sustainable responses to affected populations.
