This report presents possible post COVID-19 developments in the global humanitarian operating environment throughout 2021.

The pandemic has highlighted many of the ways in which the global humanitarian system has failed to reform and has illustrated the importance of local actors in the provision of assistance.

ACAPS' scenarios post-COVID19 consider three different ways in which the provision of humanitarian assistance might change over 2021:

  • Continuing adaptation of response mechanisms; existing power dynamics unchanged.
  • Increased national influence; reframed international support.
  • Increased national control; severely reduced international influence and support.
