Humanitarian Action Study Group

The Humanitarian Action Study Group (HASG) brings together both scholars and practitioners of humanitarian action to share knowledge, expertise and experience in the areas of humanitarian action, humanitarian intervention, human rights / protection, complex emergencies and the inter-section of development and humanitarian programming. If appropriate, the group will also act as a focal point for networking in support new research initiatives (including applied research) in these areas.

This group is co-convened by Anusha Basu, University of Glasgow. All are welcome. To join this study group, or for further information, please contact the convenors at humanitarian@dsaireland.org,  stating your institution/ngo, area of interest/research and any suggestions for activities.
