Building bridges of trust: insights from Bolivia
Research from Bolivia shows that trust can collapse when communities receive confusing or false information during crises. Yet local communities are also creating solutions, from sharing verified updates to building local communication networks. These insights echo the World Disasters Report 2026: trusted, community-led communication is now essential to effective humanitarian action.
Humanitarian Action in a Chokepoint World
As humanitarian systems become increasingly dependent on fragile global infrastructures, supply chains, technologies, and political arrangements, disruptions in one part of the world can rapidly cascade across entire regions and sectors. This paper explores the growing importance of “chokepoints” — critical nodes whose failure can trigger disproportionate humanitarian consequences — and examines how systemic risks are reshaping the operating environment for humanitarian action.

Mediterranean leaders confront a shifting humanitarian landscape in Acireale
Leaders from 26 Mediterranean National Societies convened in Acireale on 26–27 March 2026 to address a rapidly shifting humanitarian landscape. Amid rising political polarization and evolving migration dynamics, discussions highlighted growing pressures on leadership, neutrality, and trust. The meeting emphasized the need for collective direction, stronger cooperation, and principled leadership to navigate increasing complexity across the region.
New Chapter in Voluntary Action
Volunteerism is changing—and fast. As new generations redefine how they engage, and as crises grow more complex and demanding, the question is no longer whether volunteerism will evolve, but whether we are ready to evolve with it. Kate Forbes reflects on what must change and what must never be lost.
Misinformation is not new – Humanitarian Action has always lived with it
Misinformation and disinformation are often described as defining illnesses of our time. Yet history shows they are far from new. Long before social media, falsehoods travelled through stone, parchment, pulp and radio waves, shaping power and fuelling fear. From Ramses II’s portrayal of the Battle of Kadesh as a triumphant victory to rumours during the Black Death accusing Jewish communities of poisoning wells, misleading narratives have repeatedly emerged in moments of crisis. Humanitarian action has also faced these dynamics, from early doubts about Henry Dunant’s accounts to rumours targeting aid workers in modern health emergencies. What distinguishes our moment is not their existence, but their speed, scale and precision.
Truth, Trust and Humanitarian Action: Why the World Disasters Report 2026 matters
In every crisis, information shapes outcomes. Today, the speed and scale of misinformation and disinformation mean harmful narratives can quickly become crises within crises—eroding trust, discouraging people from seeking help, fuelling stigma and fear, and even putting humanitarian staff and volunteers at risk. The World Disasters Report 2026: Truth, Trust and Humanitarian Action in the Age of Harmful Information examines how the information environment has become a central factor in humanitarian response, and why trust is now a critical form of preparedness. Drawing on evidence and real-world examples, the report highlights practical ways humanitarian actors can strengthen trust through transparency, community engagement and better communication.
