AidEx Nairobi Conference 2024 - Revitalising Humanitarian and Development Assistance - Amidst a funding shortage, how can we reinvigorate our response to overlapping crises and build resilience to manage future crises?

The AidEx Nairobi conference and exhibition was launched in 2014 as a satellite to our European event, focused on aid and development within Africa. It is a two-day high-profile conference attracting over 500 A&D professionals from East Africa and beyond.

The overarching theme for 2024’s conference revolved around 'Revitalising Humanitarian and Development Assistance'.

2024’s agenda aimed to delve into the challenges posed by a lack of funding, seeking innovative ways to reinvigorate our response to overlapping crises and foster resilience for managing future challenges.

AidEx Nairobi takes place again next year at the Safari Park Hotel on 11-12 June 2025. The high-level audience in attendance includes UN agencies, donors, Red Cross societies, international and local NGOs, CBOs and the private sector.
