Collection
How can research support the localisation of humanitarian aid?
- Submission status
- Closed
Conflict and Health invites you to submit to our new collection on the localisation of humanitarian aid.
During the 2016 World Humanitarian Summit in Istanbul, international humanitarian organisations and funders formally recognized local actors as key players in humanitarian assistance and committed to strengthening more locally-led responses in crises. However, pathways through which the research community can address existing gaps and serve the humanitarian localisation agenda remain unclear. Indeed, the generation, circulation and use of scientific evidence can challenge or reproduce existing power imbalances in research, humanitarian policies and programmes, and endorse or invalidate certain sources and forms of knowledge over others.
This thematic series seeks papers engaging with considerations of power in the generation and use of evidence in humanitarian settings, and how this then influences humanitarian policies and programmes. This includes papers addressing efforts at decolonising humanitarian research. Overall, the thematic series seeks to help understanding of how evidence can support the localisation of humanitarian aid.
Manuscripts should be formatted according to our submission guidelines and submitted via our online submission system. During the submission process, please make sure the correct collection title is chosen at the 'Additional Information' step. Please also indicate clearly in the covering letter that the manuscript is to be considered for this collection.
