Speaker
2022 is proving to be the year of unprecedented humanitarian needs, with climate shocks, conflict, COVID-19 and spiraling costs of food and fuel driving millions closer to starvation, forging a band of instability that wraps right around the globe. At the same time, the consequences of the conflict in Ukraine are radiating outwards, triggering a wave of collateral hunger that is spreading across the globe.
Given the nature of the unprecedented humanitarian crisis facing the planet is one of acute food shortage and food insecurity, WFP would like to propose a panel discussion ? to be co-hosted with a Korean Government agency, such as KOICA - to present different perspectives around HDP (Humanitarian, Development and Peace) nexus and the components of humanitarian action needed in today’s world of, showcasing how coordinated action, protection of human rights and food assistance can be the collective pathway to peace. On this matter, the role of ROK both as one of the most developed nations in the world and one whose recent history stands as a shining example of ending hunger can provide a rich and meaningful foundation to how countries can learn from ROK’s own journey and success.
In this session, we aim to re-imagine humanitarian response and protection during a time of unprecedented global crisis. Based on the idea of maintenance of international peace and security, we will examine the correlations of conflict, climate and food security. Leading towards the bigger discussion of opportunities through the HDP Nexus, we will also look into how to ensure human rights and protection through humanitarian action.
