A) Objetivos de la promesa
Humanitarian crises, including armed conflicts and disasters, public health emergencies and displacement, affect people differently. Gender and other social factors including age, disability, health status, social status, and ethnicity, impact people’s vulnerability and capacity to prepare for, prevent and respond to crises.
For humanitarian work to be effective, it is essential to analyse the needs, priorities, opportunities, access to humanitarian resources and services and capacities of people that may be particularly vulnerable because of their gender, age, ethnicity, health and disability or social status.
