The Government has proposed an allocation of NOK 835.4 million for stabilisation efforts in countries affected by conflict and crisis. That is why we are seeking to strengthen the coordination of short-term and long-term aid efforts in countries and regions in fragile situations. The funding will help to meet the refugees’ needs for more long-term support. The funding will gradually be shifted from humanitarian aid towards stabilisation support. The funding will support efforts to promote stability, prevent conflict, reduce fragility, and increase resilience at the local level.
