The Future of Humanitarian Response 2017

Article published on the World Economic Forum website on 02/14/2017

In 2015, the World Economic Forum began working with leaders from across sectors to develop a coherent conversation around humanitarian issues.

Since then, the Forum has brought together a select group of high-level representatives from governments, international organizations, private sector, civil society and media that are actively engaged in addressing humanitarian challenges.
