Attending the Protection Forum 2024 as part of the EWiPA conference in Oslo! The first session is all about the harm done to civilians and how #ewipa: 1. Is responsible for 90% of direct, civilian casualties worldwide 2. Degrades the environment and affects people's livelihood 3. Destroys people's cultural heritage and affects their historical identity 4. Destroys critical infrastructure such as water and electricity and limits access to essential services Incredibly powerful statements by Younis Al Khatib from Pakistan Red Crescent Society (PRCS), Iryna Nikolaieva from PAX Protection of Civilians, Radhya al-Mutawakel from Mwatana for Human Rights, Bonnie Docherty from Human Rights Watch and Mark Zeitoun from Geneva Water Hub, a Centre of Competence on Water for Peace about the manifold, severe, negative consequences of continued use of #ewipa by many states. #ewipa #civilians #StopBombingCivilians #NotATarget #ProtrctionForum24 #protectionofcivilians

At IMPACT Initiatives, we recognize the critical role that United Nations OCHA plays in delivering the essential information and analysis that humanitarians need to respond effectively. We are proud to consider OCHA a key partner in our mission, in particular our joint work around the Multi Sectoral Needs Assessments enabled “once a year joint and independent needs assessments” to become a must in humanitarian crises in line with the Grand Bargain commitments. Recently, we joined forces with other information management and analysis actors to outline key priorities for our collaboration with OCHA in the coming years. These priorities include enhancing leadership and coordination, establishing clear standards and guidelines, improving data platforms and integration, and advancing analytical capabilities, including the integration of climate data. Together, we are committed to enhancing our collective impact and ensuring that humanitarian responses are informed, timely, and effective.
