World Humanitarian Day: 'Step-up efforts to reduce human suffering'

18-08-2017 - 11:55

BibiBidi settlement in northern Uganda is the fastest growing refugee settlement in the world.

Ahead of World Humanitarian Aid Day, which is marked yearly on 19 August, the Chair of the Committee on Development, Linda McAvan, and the Committee's standing rapporteur for humanitarian aid, Enrique Guerrero Salom, underlined the European Parliament's concern about the unprecedented scale of crises around the world which have resulted in 141 million people in 37 countries in need of humanitarian assistance.

"Financial contributions have met less than one third of the funding required to respond to the ongoing crises, putting people's lives at risk", their joint statement underlines. The MEPs also stress that all actors must "respect international humanitarian law and to ensure that humanitarian assistance remains firmly anchored on the principles of humanity, neutrality, independence and impartiality."

Riječi dobrodošlice

Dobrodošli na mrežne stranice Odbora za razvoj (DEVE). Od srpnja 2014. imam čast predsjedati Odborom.

Gotovo milijarda ljudi diljem svijeta živi u teškom siromaštvu. Još je mnogo više onih koji su suočeni s glađu i bolešću i nemaju pristup zdravstvenoj skrbi ili obrazovanju. No naporima za globalni razvoj u okviru Milenijskih razvojnih ciljeva postignut je mjerljiv napredak te su u posljednjih nekoliko godina milijuni ljudi izbavljeni iz siromaštva. Međutim, u isto smo vrijeme svjedoci sve većih nejednakosti i moramo pronaći način kako iskoristiti ekonomski rast za dobrobit većeg broja ljudi.
