Episode: Standing together: the Climate and Environment Charter for Humanitarian Organizations
Description: Today’s climate and environmental crises threaten the very survival of humanity. The Climate and Environment Charter for Humanitarian Organizations, the result of a collective effort across a wide range of humanitarian organizations and climate and sustainability experts, sets out seven commitments aiming to galvanize and steer collective humanitarian action in response to these crises.
In this post, IFRC Climate Change Coordinator Tessa Kelly and ICRC Policy Advisors Catherine-Lune Grayson and Amir Khouzam describe the collective commitments outlined in the Charter, why it matters, and signal to organizations across the humanitarian sector that it is open for their signatures.
