Science & Cocktails: Why humanitarianism needs changing

On the impact of humanitarian crises on societies

Hilhorst will also examine the organization and impact of humanitarian action. What impact do humanitarian crises have on societies and vulnerable communities? How can humanitarian action facilitate recovery after a crisis? What effect does the undermining of humanitarian law have on the legitimacy of humanitarian action? What impact will climate change have on humanitarianism? This event is an initiative of the Dutch Institute for Emergent Phenomena (DIEP) with the support of the University of Amsterdam. Science & Cocktails Amsterdam is presented in collaboration with Paradiso Amsterdam.
