The organisers invite your participation in the Humanitarian and Conflict Response Institute’s (HCRI) 2nd ESRC funded seminar entitled Assessing Humanitarianism: Disaster & Data Dissemination. This event will take place on Friday 26 February 2010 in University Place lecture theatre 1.218 at The University of Manchester. In convening this seminar the HCRI will adopt a multi-disciplinary approach to the evaluation of humanitarian aid. Exploring previous and current approaches we will review what various assessments entail, what they were aiming to measure, and highlight what these methodologies can reveal or conceal. Case studies, including that of the earthquake in Haiti, will be utilised to provide a context for discussions; intended outputs include the development of a novel and robust methodology for assessing the impact of humanitarian aid.
In addition, we are also hosting a public seminar on Haiti entitled Emergency in Haiti: Where Medics, Missionaries, and Militaries Collide. This event will also take place on Friday 26 February 2010 from 6pm to 8pm in University Place at The University of Manchester. Please see attached invite for further information.
Please note that places at these events are free of charge and available on a first come first served basis – simply email me at rebecca.whitehead@manchester.ac.uk to reserve your place.
