Inter-Agency Coordinated Appeal: July Update

As of end-July, the 2025 Global Humanitarian Overview (GHO) presents consolidated funding requirements of $45.48 billion to assist 181.2 million of the 300 million people in need in 72 countries. To date, only $7.64 billion2 has been reported, which represents 16.8 per cent of the current financial requirements. This is approximately 40 per cent less than the funding recorded at the same time last year.

In June, the results of the GHO hyper-prioritization exercise were presented, identifying $29 billion in funding requirements to urgently support 114.4 million people with assistance and protection. For the latest figures, please consult Humanitarian Action.

The extension of the 2025 Humanitarian Response Priorities for Syria was launched on 24 July, appealing for $3.19 billion to support 10.3 million people in need through December 2025. Building on the existing Response Priorities, the revised appeal focuses on areas facing the most severe humanitarian conditions—specifically locations classified under severity levels four and five. It includes $2.07 billion in urgent requirements to assist 8.2 million people. This extension comes amid critical funding shortfalls. By mid-2025, only 15.9 per cent of the initial $2 billion requirement had been met. In 2024, just 36.6 per cent of the Syria Humanitarian Response Plan was funded—one of the lowest levels in the crisis’s history.
