“The collapse in international humanitarian funding also reflects an apparent erosion of global political support for humanitarian action. The Trump administration’s closure of USAID is the most prominent manifestation of this, but the trend is broader. Aid budgets in many countries have declined as rising nationalism is turning governments inward, reducing political support for global solidarity. These trends raise daunting questions: Will humanitarian funding ever rebound? If not, how many will die as a result?”
