The Humanitarian Networks & Partnerships Week (HNPW) conference is an annual humanitarian event that provides a collaborative space for experts, stakeholders and practitioners from a diverse array of organisations -UN agencies, IFRC, NGOs, military, private sector, academia, and Member States- that can express their experiences, introduce new ideas and tools, and connect and cooperate in finding solutions to common challenges in crisis preparedness and response.
This year’s HNPW conference will be held in a hybrid format, combining remote sessions (17-21 April) with face-to-face and hybrid sessions at the CICG (Geneva) (24-28 April).
