This is an outline of the humanitarian strategy discussed at the Humanitarian Country Team (HCT) retreat 18-19 July 2023 in Abuja.
The strategy will, if needed, be revised to adjust the response to significant changes in needs or the humanitarian context.
Building on the HCT’s 2022-2023 Humanitarian Strategy, the following strategic objectives will guide the humanitarian response in 2024-2025:
Strategic Objective 1: Affected people receive life-saving assistance to remedy and avert the most severe threats to life and health, in order to reduce (excess) mortality and morbidity
Strategic Objective 2: The affected people enjoy adequate protection of their rights, including safety and security, unhindered access to humanitarian assistance and solutions that fulfil norms and standards
Strategic Objective 3: Affected people’s lives are transformed – they are enabled and empowered through humanitarian and development action where opportunities exist so that they no longer need humanitarian assistance
