Announcement :

DOES AID (ACTUALLY) AID IN AVOIDING DISASTERS AND REBUILDING AFTER THEM?

Some scholars, policy-makers and practitioners believe that humanitarian aid contributes to making beneficiaries more resilient and reducing their vulnerability. Others are not so sure; they argue that aid is often controlled by political agendas, and creates results that are more damaging than desirable.

Join the debate by sharing your thoughts and voting on the motion at https://oddebates.com/.

Jason Von Meding and Anna Konotchick, two internationally recognized experts in disaster risk reduction and post-disaster reconstruction, will defend each viewpoint over ten days.

  • Opening remarks: February 15, 2019
  • Rebuttal remarks: February 20, 2019
  • Closing remarks: February 25, 2019
