#HumanitarianAidSystem: Despite a decade of bold commitments, localization goals remain unmet.
Calls to decolonize aid by shifting power and funding to LNNGOs emphasize equity, local ownership, and shared leadership, but progress remains fragmented, symbolic, and donor-driven.
SSDF proudly participated in the #HXConference held in #Baghdad, #Iraq which brought together youth leaders, local organizations, government representatives, and international stakeholders under the theme: “From Crisis to Opportunity – Youth and Local Leaders Shaping the Future.”
On April 24, SSDF with UNDP held a consultative meeting on the second NAP of the UN Resolution 1325, which highlights the role of women in peace and security with local authorities, WED,Tribal leaders, CSOs, and volunteer groups in Salah al-Din, Iraq.
