How to make the case for continued needs-based humanitarian funding in line with the humanitarian principles Exchange of views with Jan Egeland, Secretary General of the Norwegian Refugee Council
On 20 May the Committee will exchange views with Mr Jan Egeland, Secretary General of the Norwegian Refugee Council on how to make the case for continued needs-based humanitarian funding in line with the humanitarian principles of humanity, neutrality, impartiality and independence. This debate takes place in a context where the legitimacy and principled nature of global humanitarian action is increasingly under fire and the humanitarian funding gap is growing due to decreasing donor contributions.
