Aid localization involves shifting power, resources, and decision-making authority from international entities to local actors. Nevertheless, the call for localization is supported by various organizations such as Oxfam, which has advocated for a fundamental change in the way humanitarian aid is delivered, emphasizing the importance of local involvement, financial support, and capacity building. This model, based on the active involvement of local leaders and extensive community engagement, showcases the immense potential for positive change through localized participatory development.
