Summary
Humanitarian crises have become more frequent, complex and protracted. If current trends continue, it is estimated that by 2030, humanitarian assistance costs could increase to $50 billion per year. By then, two-thirds of the worlds poor are at risk of living in conflict-affected countries. To bridge the gap, humanitarian organizations are increasingly utilizing innovative financing tools such as impact bonds, faith-based finance and other innovative financial products and services to mobilize greater funding to address humanitarian needs. This book is among the first to assess a set of innovative financing mechanisms that have been transforming the humanitarian sector and explores their key opportunities, challenges and future prospects. This book will be of interest to academics, practitioners, humanitarian organizations and policy makers involved in humanitarian financing and to the humanitarian sector in general. Maram Ahmed teaches at the Faculty of Law and Social Sciences, SOAS, University of London. Maram has published in various key academic and policy journals and has also published and been featured in mainstream media publications such as the Financial Times, CNBC, Reuters, the World Economic Forum, Devex and others. Maram frequently speaks at conferences and industry summits across the globe and has worked internationally with a range of government, corporate and humanitarian agencies.
