UNHRD is a humanitarian platform, enabling emergency and preparedness response efforts. As part of the UN’s World Food Programme, we are uniquely placed to support the international humanitarian community. Our areas of focus include:
- supporting effective delivery of relief efforts, including through supply chain solutions delivered via our five hubs, facilitating better co-ordination and providing specialized training;
- fostering partnerships that strengthen the humanitarian community, including between UN agencies, NGOs, governmental organizations and universities; and
- facilitating research and development into innovative solutions and products with a strong focus on “greening” initiatives including encouraging a shift to renewable energy sources and promoting the reuse and recycling of materials.
We aim to leverage our expertise to strengthen performance and increase capacity across the humanitarian community. Operating as a powerful agent for bringing about sustainable change in emergency preparedness and response systems, we support our partners in bringing help to those in need.
