The first-ever World Humanitarian Summit is a global call to action by United Nations Secretary-General Mr. Ban Ki-moon. The Summit aims to re-inspire and reinvigorate a global commitment to humanity and in particular to upholding the dignity and safety of the millions of women, men and children who are caught up in crises.
The Summit is a platform for Heads of State and Government, and leaders from civil society, the private sector, crisis-affected communities and multilateral organizations to announce their commitments to change, to launch new initiatives and partnerships, and to showcase innovative practices and ideas to enable countries and communities better prepare for and respond to crises, and be more resilient to shocks.
