World Humanitarian Day (WHD) is around the corner and this week we have launched the #NoMatterWhat campaign.
19 August, this year, marks the 20th Anniversary of the Bombing of the Canal Hotel and UN Headquarters in Baghdad, where we lost 22 colleagues. The tragedy profoundly changed the way in which humanitarians operate – from being respected, to being targeted – and led to the creation of WHD.
This WHD, we will reaffirm our commitment to the values and humanitarian principles that guide us and show that we stand shoulder to shoulder with the communities we serve, no matter who, no matter where and #NoMatterWhat.
Visit the website to read stories of survivors and those affected by the Canal Hotel bombing and to view the #NoMatterWhat campaign materials.
The best way to get involved in the campaign is to make or share the #NoMatterWhat campaign materials, which you can see at the link below.
