Words into Action: operationalisation of the nexus through integration of the gender perspective

With humanitarian needs expected to exceed $40 billion for the first time in 2022 and with the SDGs off track in many of the most fragile contexts, we are not on track with our shared commitment to meet the needs of the furthest behind. Moving from words into action with a nexus approach will be a critical element of reversing these trends. This session will explore why the nexus is ‘everyone’s business’ and the importance of ensuring that gender sensitive and risk informed actions are a vital component of success for local actors, governments, the multilateral system, and NGOs to turn the nexus into action.
