Got a minute? ⏱️ Press play. The inaugural CSSF Bootcamp will be happening in Ghana, 17–21 Aug!
In this 1-minute video, Farouk Alhassan explains what this first-of-its-kind initiative is all about and why it matters for civil society.
#ShiftThePower #CSSFBootcamp
Local actors are often praised as the future of humanitarian action, yet funding systems still keep them at the margins.
Real #Localisation requires reforming funding, risk-sharing, and decision-making so local leadership becomes the norm, not the exception. #ShiftThePower
Tania Cheung at @comicrelief and Charles Kojo Vandyck at @wacsi share their reflections from last week's Global Partnerships Conference.
Is power really shifting in the development and humanitarian space?

أدت السيول الأخيرة في #اليمن إلى جرف عشوائي للألغام والقنابل العنقودية نحو مناطق آمنة وسكنية، مما تسبب في أزمة ميدانية طارئة وإرباك شديد لخطط التطهير والطوارئ.يتزامن هذا التحدي مع استمرار إيقاف التمويل من قِبل @OCHAYemen وصندوق @YHF_Yemen للعام الـ4 على التوالي، وحرمان اللجنة الوطنية ومركزها التنفيذي (الشريك الوطني المعتمد قانوناً) من أي دعم، وتوجيهه لجهات وجمعيات غير مصرحة؛ في إخلال صريح بمبدأ "الملكية الوطنية"، وخطة عمل سيم ريب-أنغكور (2025–2029)، والمعايير الدولية (IMAS) والوطنية (YMAS).ونؤكد أن أي أنشطة تُقدم من قِبل @OCHAYemen و @YHF_Yemen لأي جهة دون الرجوع للجنة الوطنية، ووفقاً للأولويات والخطط الاستراتيجية والسنوية الوطنية، ستكون غير معتمدة وغير مقبولة، ولن تُدرج في نظام المعلومات (IMSMA) أو تُرفع في تقرير المادة السابعة.وستتخذ اللجنة الوطنية كافة التدابير والإجراءات القانونية المعتمدة في خطة عمل سيم ريب-أنغكور (Siem Reap-Angkor Action Plan)، وسيتم إشعار رئاسة اتفاقية حظر الألغام ووحدة دعم التنفيذ (ISU) بذلك رسمياً.التفاصيل في الإنفوجرافيك المرفق 📊👇#السيول_اليمن #اخبار_اليمن #امطار_اليمن #الملكية_الوطنية #أزمة_الألغام #YEMAC #Yemen

📢LIVE from London! WACSI's @KojoAbroba is recording #AlternativeConvos at the #GlobalPartnershipsConference with @pmtungila — a candid conversation on what shifting power really looks like in practice.
In partnership with @comicrelief & @FCDOGovUK. #ShiftThePower
The humanitarian system is strongest when power and resources are in the hands of those closest to the context.
Check out these new learning briefs from @Oxfam on how locally-led response networks are shifting the needle on #localization:

To address #ClimateChange, communities continue advancing solutions rooted in sovereignty, care & justice. This piece calls on #philanthropy to fund movements for the long term & #ShiftThePower to those closest to the work: https://t.co/dczVtQJfpj

Equitable partnerships are the backbone of effective aid.
A new report on Afghanistan outlines guiding principles for locally-led humanitarian and development collaboration. To truly #ShiftThePower, we must move toward modalities that prioritize equity and local leadership.
🔥 THE REMATCH IS HERE.

Progress in the Pacific! The 2025 #Vanuatu report shows local actors transforming humanitarian action. While local leadership is growing, systemic hurdles remain. It’s time to turn evidence into deeper change!

#Localisation #ShiftThePower
True #localisation can’t just be talk. We need real shifts in power, funding & practice so local and national responders can lead with confidence, not be sidelined by the same old system. Change is possible if we support ecosystems, not preserve outdated structures #ShiftThePower
