FAO position paper: the World Humanitarian Summit
FAO’s main objectives for the WHS, and its commitments as an Organization to the Agenda for Humanity, largely falls under Core Responsibilities Three, Four and Five, and the related common core commitments. Core Responsibility Three builds on the 2030 Sustainable Development Agenda to prioritize the most vulnerable groups, with a significant emphasis on displacement and migration, strong attention to gender concerns and the protection of women and girls, and acknowledging the critical role for risk informed and shock-responsive social protection systems. Core Responsibility Four moves away from a supply-driven approach to delivering aid towards ending need based on shared outcomes, calling for a renewed approach that prioritizes prevention, preparedness and resilience building. Core Responsibility Five is closely linked to the findings and recommendations of the UNSG’s High Level Panel on Humanitarian Financing, and includes commitments related to the “Grand Bargain” proposed by the High Level Panel.
