Apply now for the Palladium Challenge Fund, managed by international development advisory firm Palladium in partnership with the Kyeema Foundation. This year, up to $100,000 is available to support projects with groundbreaking and sustainable ideas to increase the impact of humanitarian crisis response.
The theme for this year’s Challenge is “Technology for Humanitarian Action,” and the judges will be looking for proposals that use technology—whether a new innovation or a way to scale something already tried—to improve how humanitarian response to crisis is delivered. Special attention will be paid to proposals that empower local communities and offer long-term solutions.
The deadline to apply is October 27, 2023. To learn more, please click on the link below.
The current economic, social, and environmental trajectories at the global scale and within most regions of the world follow an unsustainable development path.
One Health is an integrated, unifying approach that aims to sustainably balance and optimize the health of people, animals, and ecosystems, pursuing top-down and bottom-up approaches. CSOs/NGOs, as essential triggers from the bottom-up, regrettably play a marginal role in global information exchange systems. Without being more effectively pressured by better coordinated bottom-up initiatives and accompanied by well-crafted science, governments will not move fast enough. The future is in our hands.

CHS Alliance, Sphere, and Groupe URD invites humanitarian and development actors to provide feedback on proposed updates to the Core Humanitarian Standard (CHS), a globally recognized voluntary code describing essential elements of humanitarian action.
By simplifying the language of the CHS and reducing its complexity, the updated version will be more accessible to a diverse range of aid actors while maintaining the quality and accountability standard that people in crisis deserve.
