Working across the HDP Nexus: What have we learned?
Strengthening linkages between humanitarian, peace and development efforts – referred to as the ‘HDP nexus’ – continues to be a dominant policy priority. Given greater momentum by the 2019 OECD DAC recommendation on the nexus, recent years have seen an expansion of country-level pilots and global initiatives. Yet questions abound as to what these efforts have achieved – and what tangible progress looks like.
Join ALNAP and key stakeholders in current HDP nexus efforts to reflect on the evidence to date and on what these efforts have achieved, where are the gaps and challenges, and what is needed to move these issues forward. ALNAP will present the findings of it latest evidence synthesis on the HDP nexus, followed by a moderated panel discussion on what actions can be taken moving forward to further advance HDP nexus ways of working.
