With the sustainable development goals (SDGs) off track in many fragile contexts, and humanitarian request for funding expected to exceed US$40 billion for the first time in 2022, we are behind meeting the needs of the most vulnerable. 

The nexus approach, that takes into account both the immediate and long-term needs to enhance peace, is a critical element in reversing these trends. Today, the nexus is an important topic in international relations, but while the concept is not new, the international community still struggles to operationalise it.

The Nexus online course will introduce the approach in more detail, and look into some practical ways on how to apply this concept in practice. The course will last 3 weeks during which you will engage in intensive interaction with experts in the field.
