Malteser International’s Post

International HDP Conference in Bonn On October 19-20, an international conference on the Humanitarian–Development–Peace (HDP) nexus takes place in Bonn, hosted by the bicc - Bonn International Centre for Conflict Studies. The HDP nexus, introduced at the 2016 World Humanitarian Summit, represents a "new way of working" for UN agencies, international organizations, and NGOs. It promotes conflict sensitivity, prevention, and encourages actors in humanitarian, development, and peace sectors to collaborate on peacebuilding initiatives. This conference represents the culmination of an in-depth research project examining the local implementation of the HDP nexus in Mali, South Sudan, and Iraq. Malteser International contributed with a case study focused on South Sudan. "The study and participation in the workshops organized by BICC helped us reflect on our peacebuilding approaches and expand our learning," says Roland Hansen, Head of Malteser International’s Africa Department. "The research provided a deeper understanding of the region's complex conflict dynamics and showed how important it is to study from the bottom up including all stakeholders. It also expanded our perspective on decolonization within the HDP Nexus framework." At the conference, findings from the study will be shared with representatives from politics, academia, and practitioners, placing the results within a broader global context. We extend our gratitude to BICC and the Bundesministerium für wirtschaftliche Zusammenarbeit und Entwicklung (BMZ) for making this important study possible, and to the International Rescue Committee and Welthungerhilfe (WHH) , for their valuable insights. #HDPN2024 #bicc_HDPN #DevelopmentAid #HumanitarianAid #MalteserInternational
