<![CDATA[The traditional approach of separating humanitarian aid, development, and peace efforts has shown significant limitations in addressing complex and prolonged crises. The Humanitarian Development-Peace (HDP) Nexus has emerged as a new paradigm that seeks to integrate these three dimensions to achieve more effective and sustainable outcomes. The European Union, as one of the world's largest humanitarian and development donors, has adopted the Triple Nexus approach as an integral part of its humanitarian diplomacy strategy, particularly in the African context which faces multidimensional challenges including conflict, poverty, climate change, and political instability.
