Ms Rosamond Bennett:

Christian Aid is not working in Yemen, but we are working in Bangladesh and Myanmar. As I said, three quarters of the countries we work in are affected by conflict. We are specialising in peacebuilding and conflict prevention. Without this, no progress can ever be made. It is very much about working at the grass-roots level rather than at the national level. This involves working with communities, and trying to change lives and find some kind of peace and stability. The need is great.

We are seeing an increase in the number of institutional donors that are interested in peacebuilding and conflict prevention, but it is the most difficult context to work in, especially in the likes of Myanmar.

We have mentioned climate change. There is conflict in Myanmar and Bangladesh and they are suffering from the effects of cyclones and typhoons. All of that gets added together, and it is just one economic and humanitarian disaster on top of another.
