- Support the ongoing efforts to localise humanitarian response. Strengthening local organisations enhances the impact of humanitarian action and promotes its long term effectiveness.
- Use the HRDD Tool’s assessment to demonstrate to donors the interconnected nature of human rights challenges and the need for comprehensive funding. Comprehensive funding should approach the project as a part of a wider context and response and accommodate the necessary considerations, like those relevant to protection of human rights, even if they fall outside the scope of the project proper.
- Present evidence-based analysis showing how funding restrictions impact critical human rights outcomes, within each project, especially in essential services like WASH, shelter, and protection
- Advocate for long term, sustainable and flexible funding that enables organizations to address both immediate and long-term human rights considerations. This is very relevant to adapt project’s funding to the continuously changing realities of a conflict zone.
