Within its humanitarian mandate, Welthungerhilfe advocates for a Humanitarian Paradigm shift in the international humanitarian system, i.e. away from a mere reactive towards an Anticipatory Humanitarian Assistance. This involves to strengthen a) disaster risk-informed resilience programming, b) anticipation / early warning early action, and c) emergency preparedness & response planning, while sustaining timely, effective and efficient emergency response capacities. The Webtalks will give you an exemplary insight on Welthungerhilfe’s engagement in anticipatory humanitarian actions in various countries in Africa and Asia considering different hazards, namely Madagascar, Kenya, and Zimbabwe (drought), Tajikistan (floods and landslides), and Pakistan (heatwaves, droughts, and floods).
