Towards more inclusive humanitarian action

In a humanitarian crisis, all individuals are at risk, but marginalized or groups with specific needs are often more vulnerable to discrimination, threats, exploitation and often are harder to reach. The vulnerabilities people experience in crises do not just happen. Rather, they are the result of current and historical processes of neglect, marginalization, discrimination, stigmatization and deeply rooted inequalities for women and girls, children and youth, racial and ethnic minorities, persons with disabilities, older persons, displaced persons and migrants, persons with diverse sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression and sex characteristics, indigenous peoples, persons living in detention, the urban poor and rural communities.
