Resumen
Descripción
The scale and protracted nature of displacement today highlights more than ever the need to integrate environmental preparedness and response in humanitarian interventions. Addressing the environmental impacts of forced displacement and related risks is essential with environmental protection being a necessary pre-condition of human protection. Over past years, FAO has worked with partners to alleviate environmental pressures and facilitate energy access for both host and displaced communities.
Funded by DG ECHO, this initiative adopts a multidisciplinary approach that combines emergency assistance with longterm resilience and development efforts towards the sustainable management of forests and ecosystem restoration, enhancing livelihood resilience, energy access, nutrition and food security in displacement settings. Conceived as a pilot with global level action and country activities in Djibouti, Somalia, Uganda and the United Republic of Tanzania, greening the humanitarian response in displacement settings represents a further opportunity for bridging and maximizing positive effects along the humanitarian–development–peace nexus.
