The sixth Humanitarian Networks and Partnerships Week (HNPW) was held from 3 to 7 February 2020 at the International Conference Centre in Geneva, Switzerland. The event was organized by the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs and hosted by the Swiss Government.
The HNPW is the flagship event of the Leading Edge Programme (LEP), a year-round collaborative platform for humanitarian expert networks and partnerships with the aim of developing sustainable solutions to recurring, cross-cutting issues in emergency preparedness and response. The LEP acts as a global community of practice and offers a unique space for inter-network collaboration by bringing together a wide range of stakeholders united by common goals to improve effectiveness in crisis preparedness and response.
The HNPW 2020 was attended by more than 2,300 participants from 100 Member States and 450 organizations, representing UN agencies, funds and programs, Governments, military, and civil protection, NGOs, the Red Cross, and Red Crescent movement, private sector, and academia.
