State of the World's Emergencies

A briefing for new UK parliamentarians

Published by Bond and with contributions from Saferworld, this briefing is designed to give incoming members of the UK parliament a rapid overview of some of the world’s most fragile situations and highlight actions which key influencers can take to ensure the UK government most effectively delivers on its moral and political responsibilities.

Beginning with reasons the UK must support principled humanitarian assistance and continue to focus on fragile and conflict-affected states, the briefing then focuses on short summaries of 10 fragile situations and emergencies.

“Development programmes will achieve little for the poorest and most vulnerable people in the world if they do not help reduce conflict and violence, and build sustainable peace.”
