A talk by Dr Gemma Sou (Humanitarian & Conflict Response Institute) - part of the School of Arts, Languages and Cultures open lecture series "Meet the Researchers".
What causes a disaster and how can we reduce the impacts of disasters? What are some of the practical, philosophical, political and ethical challenges that humanitarian aid workers face and how can they be addressed? These are some of the questions that will be discussed at this presentation about a new BSc in International Disaster Management and Humanitarian Response.
