The Honeybee Strategy draws inspiration from the hive's resilience and interdependence, offering a transformative approach to global development. By addressing five critical questions—shifting power, tackling root causes, amplifying local voices, fostering sector-wide collaboration, and speaking truth to power—this strategy creates systemic change, ensuring collective impact and long-term resilience.

The Fifth Wave is here, challenging INGOs to confront global inequality, shrinking civic spaces, declining aid, and intensifying crises. These storms are not just obstacles—they are catalysts for bold transformation. The time to act is overdue, but the window of opportunity is narrowing rapidly. Will we rise to the occasion, or risk irrelevance?
