The International Network on Conflict and Fragility (INCAF) brings together OECD Development Assistance Committee (DAC) members working in fragile and conflict-affected contexts, and the key multilateral agencies that support them.
INCAF helps its members engage effectively when they support the most fragile contexts, countries affected by conflict, and their populations, through lesson learning and the promotion of good practices.
INCAF works with diverse stakeholders including international financial institutions the UN, OECD and non-OECD governments as well as civil society organisations, think tanks and academic institutions.

This 2023 Common Position was developed in support of the implementation of the Global Compact on Refugees and the UN Action Agenda on Internal Displacement.
It sets forward three engagement areas for development co-operation in refugee, internal displacement, and statelessness situations in low- and middle-income Countries
The 2019 Recommendation on the HDP nexus was the DAC’s response to the call by humanitarian, development, and peace actors for strengthened policy and operational coherence.
The Recommendation acknowledges the engagement of a diverse range of actors, based on their respective comparative advantage, a shared understanding of risk and vulnerability and an approach that prioritises ‘conflict prevention always, development support wherever possible, humanitarian action only when and as long as necessary’.
