The Humanitarian Networks and Partnerships Weeks (HNPW) 2025 was held from 17 to 28 March (first week remote, second week hybrid with in-person participation at the CICG in Geneva). The HNPW provides a unique forum for humanitarian networks and partnerships to meet and address key humanitarian issues. One of the largest humanitarian events of its kind, it gathers participants from the UN, NGOs, Member States, the private sector, the military, academia and beyond to discuss and solve common challenges in humanitarian affairs.
The EiE Hub co-hosted three hybrid sessions, with face-to-face and online participation, at HNPW 2025. These include the following (please click on the titles to view the programme):
