| description |
Recent events have drawn the world’s
attention to a crisis that has been building up for a long
time—forced displacement. Beside five million Palestinians,
over half of the refugees worldwide originate from Syria,
Afghanistan and Somalia – with Sudan, South Sudan, the
Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), Myanmar, Iraq, and
Eritrea also accounting for large numbers. This joint paper
aims to define a framework for collective action for
Multilateral Development Banks (MDBs) in response to the
forced displacement crisis, within the context of the One
Humanity agenda issued by the United Nations Secretary
General in February 2016. The paper outlines an agenda for
MDBs to further strengthen their contributions,
complementing humanitarian, diplomatic and peacekeeping
efforts in specific areas where stronger synergies are
desirable and possible. This paper was jointly coordinated
by the European Investment Bank (EIB) and the World Bank
Group (WBG) and prepared by MDB staff. The paper has three
main sections focusing on MDBs’ strategic agenda as they
attempt to mitigate and or respond to the crisis (Section
B); operational implications of this response in terms of
financial instrument, organizational challenges (Section C);
and, finally a framework for collective action (Section D).
