From the Harvard Humanitarian Initiative, Humanitarian Response to Conflict and Disaster seeks to prepare learners to recognize and analyze emerging challenges in the humanitarian field. Through case studies covering the responses to crises in Goma (Zaire), Somalia, the Balkans, Afghanistan, and Pakistan, participants will explore major trends affecting the current landscape of humanitarian response – including rapid population displacement, violence against aid workers, media influence on disaster response, and civil-military engagement.
