Private Sector Humanitarian Alliance Partners With World Economic Forum, European Commission InvestFrontier Initiative

PSHA Selected as a Pipeline Initiative to Receive Support Through New Global Platform

BRUSSELS – As the World Economic Forum and the European Commission launched InvestFrontier, the Private Sector Humanitarian Alliance was selected as a pipeline initiative for support and development through the new global platform that will drive growth in fragile and frontier markets. Investing in innovative solutions from now through Davos 2028, InvestFrontier brings together leaders from across development finance, business, philanthropy, government, civil society, humanitarian organizations, and international organizations.

“CoAction Global's engagement with InvestFrontier will open up new opportunities for collaboration and deepen partnerships with leading international organizations and companies,” said CoAction Global Executive Director Elizabeth Campbell, who participated in the Brussels convening. “We will leverage the community through shared work accelerating proactive crisis response and catalyzing investment in disaster-prone areas and underserved markets.”

CoAction Global launched the Private Sector Humanitarian Alliance in September. In January, the platform is expected to reach 40+ countries through anticipatory action plans, and an initial five countries through its disaster response portfolio. The PSHA will activate and make fully operational the giving platform for corporations, foundations and individuals; humanitarian intelligence alerts; and unique AI-driven reporting on where help is needed, where contributions go, and how they mitigate crisis impact and increase community and business resilience.

The PSHA is building a new model for private-sector, philanthropic and individual humanitarian giving of both cash and matching in-kind support in places facing recurring climate shocks and natural disasters. The PSHA helps companies, foundations and individuals move from reactive, post-disaster response toward proactive, data-driven investment in preparedness, resilience, and locally led response reaching communities around the world.
