Unwanted humanitarian intervention
Manage episode 344481003 series 3339802
Ever been the victim of unwanted humanitarian intervention? Teia talks us through an unwanted intervention and some pretty huge assumptions that were made about her needs! This leads Lauren and Teia into a well-timed tenuous link; let's talk needs assessments! Non-profit organisations carry out assessments at the beginning of projects to determine what services or support people need. But how well are they really listening!?
Things we mention:
1) Nexus programming - now this is a concept we mention A LOT. This is the idea that humanitarian work (think a short-term response to support people affected by an earthquake), development work (think building schools, training people how to build motorbikes) and peace work (think helping to unite groups in conflict), come together to operate as one programme. Previously they often worked in silos. You can find out more about 'Nexus' programming here.
2) Podcast: Sounds like a Cult
