Presence & Proximity: To Stay and Deliver, Five Years On

By Ashley Jackson, Steven A. Zyck
June 2017

Humanitarian Outcomes undertook this study, a follow-on to the 2011 Stay and Deliver report, at the behest of the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA), the Norwegian Refugee Council (NRC), and the Jindal School of International Affairs (JSIA), OP Jindal Global University. The study presents practical recommendations for humanitarians, Member States, donors and parties to conflict to adopt so that, even in the most brutal of conflicts, people in need can access the basics they need to survive and be safer. From strengthening principled and proximate responses to reinforcing duty of care, from questioning our practices to developing collective learning, we must collectively continue to reflect on such questions and other points of attention raised in the report.
