Organised jointly with France, Germany, the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) and the Norwegian Refugee Council (NRC), in preparation of the European Humanitarian Forum.
The webinar is part of the preparatory and consultative process, building momentum towards the European Humanitarian Forum on 24-26 January 2022 in Brussels.
