This Global Plan of Action for Sustainable Energy Solutions in Situations of Displacement (GPA) was introduced at the High-level Political Forum on Sustainable Development in 2018. This is a non-binding document based on extensive exchanges among various stakeholders from humanitarian and development organizations, the private sector, governments, academia, not-for- profit organizations and others, starting with the Berlin ‘Energy for Displaced People’ conference on 15–16 January 2018. During this conference, 120 practitioners were brought together to kick off the development of this Global Plan of Action to enhance humanitarian response for displaced people through accelerated access to sustainable energy solutions. From January to June 2018, a Steering Group of 12 entities (shown below) drafted this Global Plan of Action Framework, with significant contributions from additional partners across all working areas. See Annex I for a full list of acknowledgments. The recommendations developed by the stakeholders will build the framework for a work plan with concrete activities to improve the energy situation for the benefit of displaced people, host communities, and implementing agencies. The Steering Group would like to thank the Federal Foreign Office of Germany for their kind support of the opening conference in Berlin, as well as every organization that contributed to this plan for enabling
their staff to provide in-kind support for its development.
