This is the 2023 version of ALNAP 's Explain briefing on the HDP nexus. A more up to date version can be found here: Explain: The humanitarian-development-peace nexus
Linking short-term support with efforts addressing the root causes of crisis is far from new, but framing this as a ‘triple nexus’ across humanitarian, development and peace (HDP) actors is a recent development, prompted by the World Humanitarian Summit and the ‘Leave No One Behind’ theme of the 2030 Agenda.
This has brought a cultural shift in the humanitarian sector, sparking structural reforms and prompting more traditional agencies, like the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) and the World Bank, to form partnerships unthinkable a decade ago.
