As a humanitarian policy actor and a financial donor, Norway will face many serious, complex global challenges in the years ahead. In cooperation with others, we will:
- ensure that people in need receive the necessary protection and assistance;
- finance humanitarian assistance based on the principles of humanity, impartiality and neutrality;
- equip the international community to meet future global humanitarian challenges;
- prevent, respond to and initiate the recovery of communities after humanitarian crises.
