Have you ever thought about developing a career in the field of humanitarian action around the world?
Are you already a humanitarian worker in an organization or project delivering life-saving assistance and supporting displacement in volatile contexts but would like to upgrade your knowledge and skills?
The “Human Response” recognizes and seeks to address the gap and the geographical misalignment, with the regions most affected by crises receiving substantial aid, when most of the training programs primarily exist in Europe and North America.
This will be done by complementing the current offer in humanitarian education with a focus on students, professionals and academics from affected countries and delivering education in Global South regions, particularly in Africa.
