Extensive stakeholder consultations were held across the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region in preparation for the World Humanitarian Summit (WHS) regional consultation, scheduled to take place in Jordan on 3-5 March 2015. The aim of these consultations was to identify priority humanitarian challenges and opportunities facing the MENA region in order to lay the foundation for further discussions in Jordan. The outcomes of the regional consultation will feed into the WHS thematic and global consultations and eventually the World Humanitarian Summit in Istanbul, 2016.
