 To define a protection strategy in 2020 is as exciting as it is daunting. Because let's face it, today people stuck in conflicts and disasters or trying to flee from them are up against a spider web of problems. Terror, violence, climate change, corruption, poverty. The problems are allied and making each other more harmful. We would only stand a chance to address them if we come together and join up all the tools we have. Safety, rights and protection of individuals and communities should be at the centre of humanitarian development and peace action. It should be guided by principles and law, and any and all international actions should be directed by local communities, especially young people, for them to move forward. Next week we are launching our new strategic collective action for the coming five years. Protection in a climate of change. Come to the event. Challenge us. Inspire us. Defining a strategy is but a start. To make it work we require daily determination, humility and action. We are committed. Join us.
