Sidas humanitära erbjudande för humanitärt bistånd 2025-2029

Sweden invests in enhancing synergies across humanitarian, development and peace efforts, so called HDP nexus. The aim is to support an effective overall assistance in fragile and conflict affected contexts that contributes to preventing conflicts, strengthening resilience and reducing humanitarian needs. This brief gives an overview of how Sida works with HDP synergies in the 30 largest humanitarian crises, based on the Humanitarian Crises Analysis (HCAs) 2025 and identifies opportunities for maximizing aid impact in these contexts.

The EU and its Member States are the world’s largest aid donor, accounting for around 42 per cent of Official Development Assistance (ODA) in 2024. EU aid aims to reduce global poverty and ensure sustainable economic, social and environmental development. In addition, the EU aims to promote democratization, gender equality, the rule of law, good governance and respect for human rights. The EU is an important channel for Swedish aid and a strategic partner to Sida, that provides global leverage for Sweden’s work to improve the living conditions of people living in poverty and oppression.
