The expansion of the humanitarian donor base is urged by the EU Crisis Commissioner.
The European Union’s crisis management commissioner, Janez Lenarcic, has called for the expansion of the donor base for global humanitarian aid during his visit to the Delegation of the European Union to Saudi Arabia in Riyadh. Lenarcic noted that the current donor base is narrow, with the 10 largest donors contributing more than 80% of global humanitarian aid, which he believes is neither fair nor sustainable. He urged others who are capable of contributing more to assume greater responsibility for providing humanitarian assistance to those in need.
