A few storylines on me

Humanitarian aid is dominating news headlines in 2025 — but what’s really going on with NGOs? Are they more vital than ever before? #WhatstheStory explains. Join us as we unpack the evolving role of NGOs (Non-Governmental Organisations) in a world facing unprecedented crises: climate catastrophe, escalating conflict, economic instability, mass displacement, and rising poverty. With global humanitarian needs skyrocketing to record levels, we ask: Are international aid organisations still effective in today’s fast-changing world? In this eye-opening explainer, we dive into the impact NGOs have had throughout history and their role in tackling today’s most urgent challenges, from climate change and hunger to global health crises, refugee support, and human rights. On the front lines of disaster relief and long-term development, NGOs work tirelessly to save lives, empower communities and support the world’s most vulnerable people, often stepping in to fill the gaps where governments fall short. Featuring real stories from frontline humanitarian workers, hard-hitting statistics and expert insights, this video breaks down why humanitarian needs are growing faster than ever and explores the tough realities of donor fatigue, funding cuts and misinformation facing aid agencies today.
