Humanitarian Development Peace Nexus

The Humanitarian Development Peace Nexus (HDPN ) is an approach to tackle protracted and recurrent crises by bridging the divide between development and humanitarian partners, while contributing to the global efforts to end hunger

The FSC will increase country teams’ capacity to integrate the HDP approach into food security programming, fostering a strengthened collaboration among humanitarian, development, and peace actors, through the use of common tools and shared analysis to define joint programming initiatives. Additionally, the gFSC will provide country teams with enhanced human resources and tools to facilitate coordination among HDP partners, bridge the existing peace and development coordination platforms, foster coordination and dialogue at subnational, define timeframe and complementarities of all parties involved to ensure a comprehensive and adequate response. The gFSC will focus on five outcomes, which are:

  • Enhanced understanding of, and coordination between, HDP platforms and actors 
  • Enhanced joint context analysis of systematic and basic drivers of food insecurity and crisis 
  • Improved programmatic coherence and alignment among HDP actors and actions 
  • Improved coordinated joint monitoring, evaluation and learning (meal) 
  • Effective joint initiatives to advocate the HDP approach to reduce humanitarian needs over time
