The number, complexity, and severity of humanitarian emergencies are increasing each year, posing significant challenges to the humanitarian system. The simultaneous impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, persistent conflicts, and climate change-related disasters, along with the accompanying surge in operational costs, commodity prices, and inflation, continue to exacerbate the number of people with unmet humanitarian needs. Now more than ever, there is an urgent need for innovative and effective solutions to respond to the needs of impacted communities.
