    Au International niveau

    Précisions :

    Canada continues to work through the international humanitarian system to deliver timely, needs-based, gender-responsive, and predictable humanitarian responses. In particular, rapid and early action can help affected communities prevent, address, and mitigate losses and damages caused by climate-induced disasters, in turn helping to build resilience. As humanitarian funding and partners continue to be squeezed, Canada supports anticipatory action and pre-arranged financing mechanisms, such as the Central Emergency Response Fund (CERF) and IFRC’s Disaster Relief Emergency Fund (DREF), to proactively reduce humanitarian needs. 

    Further, in 2022, Canada signed on as a Supporter to the IFRC and ICRC’s Climate and Environment Charter for Humanitarian Organizations, which aims to mobilize humanitarian organizations’ collective action to respond to the humanitarian impacts of climate and environmental crises and to reduce the environmental impact of humanitarian work. Subsequently, Canada signed onto the Humanitarian Aid Donors’ Declaration on Climate and Environment in July 2024. 

  2. Votre État/Société nationale/institution a-t-il/elle coopéré avec d’autres partenaires aux fins de la mise en œuvre des engagements contenus dans cette résolution ?

    Oui

    Partenariats avec :
    Société nationale de la Croix-Rouge ou du Croissant-Rouge de votre pays
    Gouvernement et/ou autorités publiques
    CICR/Fédération internationale
    Partenaires de l’humanitaire et du développement (par ex. Nations Unies, organisations non gouvernementales, etc.)

    Exemples de coopération :

    Response-initiatives/mechanisms related to this resolution, supported by Canada over the reporting period, include the Disaster Relief Emergency Fund, the Central Emergency Response Fund (which is increasingly focusing on anticipatory action, and in 2023, allocated close to one-third of its funding to climate-related emergencies),  WFP’s Immediate Response Account, and the Anticipatory Action window of FAO’s Special Fund for Emergency and Rehabilitation Activities (SFERA). 

    Canada also engages regularly on climate-related issues, including anticipatory action, through governing boards of our key multilateral partners. This includes, amongst other initiatives, supporting joint statements, as well as advocating for our humanitarian partners to increasingly include climate considerations in their response planning.
