The Humanitarian Development Nexus brings humanitarian and development actors together to contribute to a common vision: addressing the root causes of fragility and vulnerability in order to create a future in which no one is left behind.
The Humanitarian Development Nexus Workstream promotes collaboration between in-country emergency and development nutrition practitioners and supports them as they develop and implement joint, long-term, multi-sectoral programs that prevent and respond to malnutrition in highly fragile contexts.
Key Activities:
- Engage in-country and regional development and humanitarian nutrition actors with the Humanitarian Development Peace Nexus (HDPN)
- Provide practical guidance and communications that help to close the gap between development and humanitarian nutrition programming
- Collaborate and coordinate with global leadership structures to raise the profile of HDPN within the nutrition sector and ensure nutrition-specific considerations are taken into account
- Respond to country-level requests for support with HDPN and equip the GNC with the knowledge and tools to embed HDPN considerations into country-level support
