Adaptive Planning and Crisis Response: Opportunities and Challenges for Civilian-Military Humanitarian Coordination in Future Conflict
In partnership with the US Naval War College's Humanitarian Response Program, UNWFP, and UNOCHA, CHRHS has organized seven Civilian-Military Humanitarian Coordination Research Symposium and Workshops, each attended by nearly 100 military and humanitarian leaders, designed to enhance the collective humanitarian response capacity of civilian and military actors by supporting a community of practice, identifying key opportunities for professional education and training, and developing a comprehensive research agenda focused on global humanitarian civil-military coordination.
Our 2023 research symposium features 16 oral presentations and over a dozen poster presentations of recently completed empiric studies, several of which have grown out of working group discussions at our prior workshops, which cover a range of contemporary challenges in global humanitarian action. This year’s presentations cover several timely topics, including civil military coordination during humanitarian evacuation, humanitarian access in complex emergencies, climate change and coastal resilience, and public health emergencies.
