DG ECHO’s approach to reducing the environmental footprint of humanitarian aid

Meiteashonraí an fhoilseacháin

From climate change and disasters to conflicts and even pandemics, the environment lies at the very heart of some of the most complex and pressing issues of our time. Environmental degradation, deforestation, desertification, soil erosion and pollution can also lead to significant and protracted humanitarian crises. Climate change and other socio-economic pressures will likely worsen the situation. However, proactively addressing environmental issues, starting from the early phases of emergency response through to the recovery phase, can reduce these risks and reduce vulnerability. As the environmental crisis deepens, humanitarian actors, from donors to local volunteers, are faced with a collective responsibility to ensure that their work does not further contribute to deteriorating the environment people live in and rely on for their livelihoods and, ultimately, their health and well-being. This calls for taking all necessary measures to reduce the climate and environmental footprint of humanitarian aid. As a major donor of humanitarian assistance, the European Commission has a critical role to play to make change happen.
