Reaching those who suffer most: Understanding severity of needs
Aquarium
This session aims to build awareness and commitment to the analysis of severity of needs as a precondition for principled, transparent and accountable prioritization of the humanitarian response. The session will discuss what we can learn from current efforts to understand severity of needs (e.g. IPC, JIAF, GPC, UNHCR-WFP Joint Hub on Targeting), and what we still need to put in place to secure a severity of needs analysis that allows for effective prioritization. Ultimately, the session will bring forward recommendations for humanitarian partners on expanding and deepening severity of needs analysis and connecting it with decision-making around prioritization, including between crises.
