UN Seeks $47.4B Aid for 190 Million in 2025 Amid Global Crises
Dec 4, 2024, 07:25 AM
The United Nations has launched an appeal for $47.4 billion in humanitarian aid for 2025, aiming to assist approximately 190 million people worldwide affected by conflicts and climate-related crises. The UN refugee agency has already secured early funding commitments of $1.5 billion, as global forced displacement surges to 123 million people. According to the UN's Global Humanitarian Overview, the number of people in need of lifesaving assistance is projected to reach a staggering 305 million next year, driven by multiple ongoing conflicts, the impacts of climate change, and violations of international humanitarian law. UN aid chief Tom Fletcher emphasized the urgency of the situation, stating that "the world is on fire" and calling for a surge in global solidarity. The appeal comes at a time when donor contributions are shrinking, with concerns about potential funding cuts from major donors, including the United States.
