During 2023, Sphere continued to work with, for and through its growing network of focal points, members, trainers, donors and practitioners. Major activities included completion of a Programme for Ukraine and Eastern Europe in response to the conflict in Ukraine, a new regional partner for South-Eastern Europe (DPPI-SEE), a new hosting arrangement for the MERS, and the launch of Nature-based Solutions guidance.
For the second time in as many years, this annual report includes several pages of updates from our focal point network.
