In response to escalating crises in West and Central Africa, the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) launched the Regional Humanitarian Leadership Programme in December 2023. The initiative aims to equip UNFPA country leadership teams to address urgent protection and reproductive health needs, particularly impacting women and girls.



The Regional Humanitarian Leadership Programme reflects UNFPA's commitment to building capable and confident leadership teams to address the unique needs of women and girls in the region. This initiative underscores UNFPA's dedication to ensuring vulnerable populations receive timely and dignified assistance during crises.
