THE YEAR IN REVIEW, 2017 THE YEAR IN REVIEW – 2017 HUMANITARIAN ASSISTANCE IN 2017

Humanitarian assistance in 2017

Humanitarian funding requirements in 2017 increased, putting even more strain on humanitarian actors. The number 2017 also saw an increase in the number of people forcibly displaced by violence and conflict, although the number of of people in need of aid reached a record 141 million, an 11 per cent increase since 2016. In parallel, requirements for people affected by natural disasters more than halved from 202 million in 2016 to 95.1 million in 2017. The number of jobs consolidated appeals increased by 20 per cent to $23.9 billion. While funding for inter-agency appeals increased by $3 billion advertised on ReliefWeb increased by 22 per cent, with health, protection and human rights, and education remaining the compared to 2016, global humanitarian assistance did not increase at the same rate. The funding gap for inter-agency three most popular categories. appeals remained at 40 per cent. It is still difficult to gauge the impact of international humanitarian assistance in relation to overall need. Assistance is often measured in terms of funding, but this is not an accurate proxy for humanitarian need.

Humanitarian needs – inter-agency appeals, funding and visibility

In 2017, appeal funding requirements increased by 16 per cent compared to 2016 levels, reaching $23.9 billion. Overall, Four years ago, this report introduced a metric to understand the level of public attention for different crises by calculating the amount of funding received per person increased slightly from $98 in 2016 to $102 in 2017, but with significant the ratio of reports on ReliefWeb to web page visits. This metric was proposed as a proxy of fatigue with humanitarian differences between countries. For example, Senegal received $8 per person while Myanmar received $221 per person. crises, albeit largely representative of users already affiliated with the humanitarian community. Compared to 2016, the The funding gap also varied between countries, with the humanitarian response plan for Iraq receiving 95 per cent of total number of reports published, as well as the average number of reports by country, dropped by nearly half, while the funding requested compared to 27 per cent for Djibouti. Seven inter-agency appeals crossed the billion-dollar mark total number and the average number of country page visits remained steady, resulting in an overall ratio of 1:24, much (Ethiopia, Nigeria, Somalia, South Sudan, Syria, Syria Regional Refugee and Resilience Plan and Yemen), an increase from higher than in 2016 (1:10). At first glance this would indicate an increase in public attention, but this shift can be attributed four in 2016. Humanitarian needs in Iraq, Syria and Yemen increased despite a fall in the number of people targeted, to the marked decrease in reporting. Looking at countries individually, the general trend was, unfortunately, a continued reflecting an increase in the costs of humanitarian delivery in these areas. This year, the report also tracks the number decrease in public attention with most individual ratios dropping. of people in need in each country. Yemen had the highest number of people in need (18.8 million).

Humanitarian needs – sector funding

Overall, sector funding in 2017 saw similar patterns to 2016, with food, health and multi-sector programming The Central Emergency Response Fund (CERF) comprised approximately 3 per cent of the total funding received remaining the three largest sectors by funding requested and received. Total funding received for all sectors increased in 2017 ($418 million), a slight fall from $440 million in 2016. The majority of CERF funding was allocated to food by 13 per cent. Overall, coordination and support services was the most well-funded sector at 84 per cent, while mine ($90.6 million). In percentage terms, the largest beneficiary of CERF allocations was agriculture, which received action recorded the largest increase from the previous year, from only 17 per cent funded in 2016 to 80 per cent funded 15 per cent of total CERF funding. in 2017. The increase in multi-sector activities and funding created a challenge in terms of understanding funding patterns, since many sectors tap into this category for funding, and those funds are no longer disaggregated.

Conflict in 2017

A record 68.5 million people worldwide were forcibly displaced by persecution, conflict, generalized violence or human unchanged, with the exception of Myanmar—1.2 million refugees fled the country in 2017. Turkey and Pakistan continued rights violations in 2017, a 4.4 per cent increase from 2016. The overall increase was driven by a 12.9 per cent jump in to host the largest numbers of refugees worldwide. The number of political, violent and highly violent conflicts, meanwhile, the number of refugees. The group of countries that produced and hosted the most refugees in 2017 remained largely all decreased in 2017, although the economic costs of violence increased by 3.5 per cent from $14.3 trillion to $14.8 trillion.

Natural disasters in 2017

There were 11 more natural disasters in 2017 than in 2016, which contributed to a massive increase in the total cost preparedness plans. People in Bangladesh, China and India were most affected by natural disasters. 2017 also saw a of damage, from $186 billion to $340 billion. This was largely a result of severe hurricanes and storms in the United States record number of storms (127, concentrated mostly in Asia and the Americas), while the number of earthquakes, floods and the Caribbean that damaged highly developed and built-up areas. These hurricanes alone caused combined damage and droughts all decreased. Asia continued to be the most disaster-prone region, with the highest number of disasters of more than $220 billion—more than the entire total in 2016. Despite the increase in damage caused by natural disasters, and people affected, although both figures decreased from 2016 levels. Natural disasters also caused the displacement the number of affected people fell from 204 million in 2016 to 95.5 million in 2017—potentially reflecting strong national of 18.8 million people, most of them in Asia.

Global landscape

Conflicts and natural disasters have been the main drivers of humanitarian need. They are often treated as discrete events, Today’s protracted and recurrent crises are a direct result of these factors. As demonstrated by the outcomes of the with little analysis of the underlying causes and warning signs. Today, the humanitarian landscape is changing more World Humanitarian Summit and the focus of the Sustainable Development Goals, there is a renewed emphasis on better rapidly than ever. Global risks are recognized as directly linked to humanitarian crises. They can increase the frequency understanding the drivers of crises and moving towards a model that not only ensures rapid and reliable humanitarian and intensity of shocks and make people more vulnerable, preventing them from building the resilience necessary to response, but also focuses on ensuring that sustainable development reaches the most fragile and vulnerable contexts. cope with those shocks. In some cases, this vulnerability is exacerbated by the absence of political solutions to conflicts.

Working differently to end need involves ensuring resources flow to the best-placed responders on the ground, which is CBPFs play a valuable role in supporting the localization of humanitarian assistance and aid delivery by directing funding to one of the core objectives of country-based pooled funds (CBPFs). In 2017, international donations to CBPFs increased national NGOs that may have more familiarity with on-the-ground conditions. Allocations to local partners have increased in by 17 per cent. However, contributions fall short of the target set under the Grand Bargain, which envisions 15 per cent countries like the DRC, where the share of funding to national NGOs rose from 21 per cent in 2016 to 38 per cent in 2017. of humanitarian requirements to be channelled through CBPFs. At current levels of humanitarian need, contributions to CBPF teams work to ensure that contributions are well spent by determining the risk level of implementing partners. Only CBPFs would have to more than triple to reach this goal. in three locations (Jordan, occupied Palestinian territory and Turkey), did more than a third of funds go towards high-risk partners. In Ethiopia, almost 90 per cent of partners were low risk.
