The global refugee population has more than doubled in the last decade, meaning that more children are unable to access essentials like clean water, food, shelter, healthcare, education and protection. World Vision is helping children survive, recover and build a future, but #refugees need our help now more than ever.

Safaa Sleiman / I completely agree with this call for effective coordination in emergency response. The unfolding humanitarian crisis since October 7, 2023, in Gaza and southern Lebanon has highlighted glaring gaps in how we are addressing the needs of displaced individuals. While the Lebanese government and various international and local organizations have implemented emergency plans, the current lack of coordination has led to unequal and insufficient distribution of resources. People in collective shelters are enduring unimaginable conditions, with some not receiving even the basic necessities for survival. This disorganized approach is unacceptable when we have the means and the will to provide better care. It’s not enough to simply have resources or good intentions; we need a unified strategy to ensure that every person displaced by this conflict, especially those in remote and underserved areas, is supported with dignity. We must work together, leverage local initiatives, and amplify coordinated efforts to provide comprehensive aid. Our compassion and solidarity should translate into organized, impactful action. I stand with this call and urge everyone involved to prioritize coordination and inclusivity in this time of immense need. #TogetherForLebanon #HumanitarianAid #CoordinationIsKey #NoOneLeftBehind #HopeForAll

❗️❗️❗️ A Call for Effective Coordination in Emergency Response I want to express my opinion here, which may not be popular and might not resonate with everyone. On October 7, 2023, the war in #Gaza began, triggering a limited conflict in southern Lebanon. Since then, I've heard that the Lebanese government has put emergency plans in place, and various international and local organizations have developed their own emergency response strategies. All sectors at the national level have also prepared their plans. However, the emergency plan established by the Lebanese government has proven inadequate and ineffective, leaving many displaced individuals without shelter. The majority of those in collective shelters are living without even the most basic human necessities. As for the majority of international and local organizations, "chaos" is the best word to describe their interventions. While there are resources and services available, they are provided randomly and without coordination. Some shelters receive comprehensive services, while others don't get any assistance at all. This situation indicates a lack of a foundational plan to organize interventions effectively across all sectors. It's not too late for us to come together, reflect, and correct our course. Everyone has the will and desire to help, but without organization and planning, our efforts may be in vain. #Coordination is the key to resolving the chaos and ensuring that all our brothers and sisters in humanity, displaced from their homes, receive the assistance they desperately need throughout Lebanon, especially in remote areas. We must join forces, amplify the voices of local initiatives, and ensure that no one is left behind. Together, we can transform our compassion into impactful action, providing hope and dignity to those who have lost everything. #CrisisResponse #Lebanon #EmergencyResponse #HumanitarianAid #EmergencyManagement #Coordination #DisplacedPersons #CommunitySupport #SocialImpact #Nonprofit #Solidarity #LocalInitiatives #Hope #HumanRights #CollectiveAction #Empowerment #PublicHealth #CrisisCoordination #SocialResponsibility #Charity #GlobalSolidarity #Protection #ChildProtection #GenderBasedViolence #Shelter #Wash #women #children #AccessToJustice

Humanitarian response attempts face many challenges and obstacles, but despite all these challenges, grassroots and social initiatives such as emergency rooms, hospices, and charity kitchens - with the support of philanthropists and some organizations - continue to provide food aid to many citizens exposed to hunger and diseases resulting from malnutrition. We repeat in the campaign (A corridor that saves a soul) Calling donors, organizations and those interested for more support, and the Sudanese government to open corridors and facilitate procedures for the passage of aid, and to all parties to the conflict in order to facilitate passage, so that we avoid the catastrophe of famine #humanitarian_corridors_save_lives#humanitarian_corridors_save_lives 

After recently witnessing the immense suffering in one of the world's most impoverished regions, I wanted to express my deep gratitude to the organizations and individuals who dedicate their lives to humanitarian work. Your tireless efforts in providing long-term relief to those affected by conflict, drought, famine, health crises, and displacement are truly inspiring. Today, I want to acknowledge the tireless work of organizations like Oxfam in supporting people suffering around the world. While Oxfam wasn't present in the specific region I recently visited, I know their commitment to the most vulnerable is unwavering. Their expertise in emergency WASH and other critical areas is truly exemplary. Oxfam's dedicated staff often find themselves in remote, challenging environments, far from home and loved ones, to provide essential aid and support to those in dire need. #humanitarianwork #globalissues #nonprofit #ngo #humanitariancrisis #Oxfam #WASH #emergencyresponse #crisisrelief #refugeecrisis #conflict #displacement #sustainabledevelopment

#Colombia: Our aid in numbers: In 2023, our efforts made a significant impact in Colombia 🇨🇴, reaching thousands in need. Behind every statistic is a life changed. ➡ 67,075 refugees and residents received medical treatment ➡ 823 people received food assistance ➡ 62,467 refugees benefited from our projects ➡ 32,752 children directly supported In La Guajira, the indigenous Wayuu people face challenges due to drought, poverty, and an influx of Venezuelan refugees. Many lack basic necessities and healthcare access. Through our MAP Salud program, we’re improving healthcare access through mobile clinics that are available for people residing far from conventional health access. We also foster dialogue among indigenous communities, local governments, and healthcare providers through these clinics.

Climate Crisis Alert: 🚨 Last year, Afghanistan experienced one of the coldest winters in 15 years, with temperatures dropping as low as -34 degrees Celsius (-29.2 degrees Fahrenheit). As nearly 23.7 million Afghan need help and 48% of the population lives under poverty line, extreme weather events, heavy snowfall, and widespread flooding have only deepened the challenges for communities in Afghanistan. As the the communities recover from recent flash floods, a new winter approaches with forecasts of intense cold waves, Afghanistan is feeling the impacts of the climate crisis more than ever. Emergency support is a must to alleviate the suffering of those vulnerable to the cold and hunger this winter. #Afghanistan #Winter2024

VLOG: Charity Lukaya, Humanitarian Director Save the Children in Afghanistan: As Afghanistan prepares for a #severe winter, communities already facing the aftermath of flooding and ongoing food insecurity are bracing for even more hardships. Save the Children has launched an anticipatory action and emergency scale-up plan to support approximately 18,000 households across nine provinces. The plan focuses on providing support in health and nutrition, education, child protection, mental health & psychosocial support, and cash assistance to help families with heating costs and other urgent needs. Save the Children winterization plan faces a $4.2 million funding gap, with the Inter-Cluster Coordination Team ICCT winterization support plan estimating $1 billion is needed across aid organizations to address winterization requirements nationwide – Including the needs of more than 700,000 children at risk. #ClimateCrisis #AnticipatoryAction #ClimateChange #Afghanistan

Preparedness and early action significantly reduces impact of predictable hazards. Forecast-based financing plays a vital role in enabling this no-regret approach. #AnticipatoryAction #ForecastBasedFinancing #ClimateResilience
