The HNPW provides a forum for humanitarian networks and partnerships to meet and address key humanitarian issues. One of the largest humanitarian events of its kind, it gathers participants from the UN, NGOs, Member States, the private sector, the military, academia and beyond to discuss and solve common challenges in humanitarian affairs.

Working in and on conflict: how climate and humanitarian action can support peace
Where: Online
Organizers: UNSSC and adelphi
Building on the 2024 UNSSC-adelphi event at HNPW, which focused on understanding climate and environmental risks for increased resilience, conflict prevention and sustaining peace, this session focused on responses. It did so by presenting concrete examples from countries currently dealing with the impacts of climate change and conflict and providing insights from organizations striving to provide life-saving support, while building the resilience of vulnerable communities and supporting peace outcomes. 
During the session, participants had the opportunity to interact with speakers through interactive quiz and Q&A segments. This session targeted practitioners, donors and researchers working at the intersection of climate, peace and security. This includes UN agencies, funds and programmes, international non-governmental organizations (INGOs), and non-governmental organizations (NGOs) and civil society organizations (CSOs) operating at the national and local levels.
