Outcomes and commitments on internal displacement of the World Humanitarian Summit 2016, para. 55
Paragraph- Paragraph text
- There remains a vital need to increase direct, timely and predictable humanitarian financing across protection and related humanitarian sectors, including food, health, basic needs, water and sanitation. Funding must also be enhanced for neglected sectors, including livelihoods, social cohesion and early recovery. In the Syrian Arab Republic and Iraq significant funding shortfalls have reduced the ability of the United Nations to provide essential assistance, leaving internally displaced persons and others in dire need. As at 6 December, the 2015 Syrian Arab Republic humanitarian response plan had received only $1.17 billion (41 per cent) of overall funding requirements. The United Nations has raised its 2016 global humanitarian funding appeal to a record $21.6 billion from $19.7 billion. By the end of June, the 2016 appeal had so far received only a quarter of the total amount requested.
