Looking Beyond the Crisis (Future Humanitarian Financing - executive summary)

The Future Humanitarian Financing (FHF) initiative was instigated by CAFOD (Caritas England and Wales), World Vision International and the UN Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) in order to undertake a horizon scanning exercise to identify opportunities and challenges in financing humanitarian action in the future. The initiative addresses a task under the Inter-Agency Standing Committee (IASC) Task Team on Humanitarian Financing 2014 work plan and attempts to stimulate energy and commitment to resolve longstanding humanitarian financing challenges and to identify new approaches and models of engagement that will address the needs of humanitarian crises yet to come.
