Priority Areas for 2026–2029
The programme will place stronger emphasis on peace policy and civilian protection, with particular focus on promoting International Humanitarian Law (IHL) and addressing Sexual and Gender Based Violence (SGBV). Stabilizing displaced communities and advancing Durable Solutions - which continued despite the onset of the crisis - remain central, alongside lifesaving assistance such as food security and resilience building measures. The programme aims to balance continuity with new priorities and is organized around three Priority Areas (PA)
Peace Policy
Switzerland will work to end the war and support a return to a civilian-led democratic transition.
Protection of civilians
Switzerland will enhance civilian protection, safeguard humanitarian access, and reduce vulnerabilities, particularly for women and SGBV survivors.
Food security and livelihoods
Switzerland will alleviate suffering while supporting resilience and recovery by linking humanitarian aid and development.
