The global increase of protracted crises and displacement challenge social and economic empowerment, both for displaced and host populations. Adopting new approaches, with the potential to advance the humanitarian-development nexus, is called for. Developed in Bangladesh, the Graduation Approach is receiving increased attention as a method that effectively fosters long-term inclusion and self-reliance. Can this model be translated to meet the challenges in Jordan, host to a large number of Syrian refugees and confronted with a high poverty rate?
For this exciting lecture, we have the honor of presenting DRC Secretary General, Ms. Charlotte Slente; Economic Recovery Manager, Mr. Rahul Mitra; Chief of Party, RYSE Consortium, Ms. Rima Alqaisi; and Global Advisor, Economic Recovery, Ms. Solenne Delga.
The lecture is co-organized in collaboration with Novo Nordisk Foundation department Social & Humanitarian and the Danish Refugee Council.
