Summary
An unidentified representative launched the Humanitarian Needs and Response Plan (HNRP) for 2026, said it continues 2025 relief efforts because the war persists, noted four agreed priorities among the United Nations, NGOs and government, and appealed to member states and donors for financial support.
An unidentified representative launched the Humanitarian Needs and Response Plan (HNRP) for 2026, saying it builds on work from 2025 and urging international donors to provide financial support.
The speaker said the plan is a continuation of the humanitarian response already underway, stressing that "the war is continuing" and that the new plan covers priorities for the coming year. "We are launching today what we are calling the HNRP... the humanitarian needs and response plan for 2026," the representative said.
The speaker said four priorities have been agreed "among the UN and the NGOs and with the government support," but did not enumerate those priorities in the transcript. The launch statement framed the HNRP 2026 as coordinated among the United Nations, non-governmental organizations and relevant government actors.
On the day of the launch, the speaker made a direct appeal for funds: "we appeal in particular to the international community, to member states, to other donors, to maintain their solidarity to express that in the form of financial support for the work we plan to continue." No funding amounts, implementing agencies, timelines for disbursement, or specific priority descriptions were provided in the recorded remarks.
The announcement did not record follow-up steps, a named spokesperson, or a schedule for when the four priorities would be published. The launch was presented as a public appeal rather than a formal vote or legally binding action.
The representative closed the remarks by reiterating the need for donor solidarity to sustain humanitarian operations into 2026.
