Changing Actors and Evolving Practice

  • The emerging concept of humanitarian diplomacy: identification of a community of practice and prospects for international recognition

  • Philippe Régnier
  • Published online by Cambridge University Press:
    12 September 2012, pp. 1211-1237

  • In recent years the term ‘humanitarian diplomacy’ has become fashionable among humanitarian organizations in general, and within the Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement in particular. However, the very idea of ‘humanitarian diplomacy’ is not uncontroversial, owing to the imprecise and contested nature of the term, and to its unclear operational application. The present article proposes to explore the definitions and scope of action of humanitarian diplomacy, as well as some of the challenges that it faces, with a view to preparing the way for its eventual recognition by the international community.

Changing Actors and Evolving Practice

  • New information technologies and their impact on the humanitarian sector

  • Patrick Meier
  • Published online by Cambridge University Press:
    21 August 2012, pp. 1239-1263

  • New information and communication technologies are impacting the humanitarian sector in profound ways. Both crisis-affected communities and global volunteer networks are becoming increasingly digital. This means that the former are increasingly the source of relevant crisis information, while the latter are becoming more adept at managing and visualizing this information on live crisis maps. This article introduces the field of crisis mapping and provides key examples from Haiti, Russia, Libya, and Somalia to demonstrate how digitally empowered affected communities and volunteer networks are reshaping humanitarian response in the twenty-first century.
