Journalism from the heart of crises
Info
The New Humanitarian was founded by the United Nations in 1995, in the wake of the Rwandan genocide, out of the conviction that objective on-the-ground reporting of humanitarian crises could help mitigate or even prevent future disasters of that magnitude. Almost twenty years later, we became an independent non-profit news organisation, allowing us to cast a more critical eye over the multi-billion-dollar emergency aid industry and draw attention to its failures at a time of unprecedented humanitarian need. As digital disinformation went global, and mainstream media retreated from many international crisis zones, our field-based, high-quality journalism filled even more of a gap. Today, we are one of only a handful of newsrooms world-wide specialized in covering crises and disasters – and in holding the aid industry accountable. In 2019, we changed our name to The New Humanitarian to signal our move from UN project to independent newsroom and our role chronicling the changing nature of – and response to – humanitarian crises. Throughout our journey, we have remained true to our mission to inform crisis prevention and response by amplifying the voices of those most affected; shining a light on forgotten crises; and resisting superficial, sensational narratives about the crises of our time.

“I’ve written so much. I’ve told you about what we see, what we live through, what we lose every single day. But in the end, even words exhaust me.” Read Rita Baroud’s most recent first person article from the Gaza Strip: https://buff.ly/Ezgjk3S

Power Shift, a new podcast from The New Humanitarian and the Center for Transformational Change, brings together decision-makers and those affected by their decisions for candid conversations about power in humanitarian aid. In this second episode, we continue the remarkable dialogue between Michael Köhler, former senior leader of the EU's humanitarian aid arm and Grand Bargain ambassador, and Nadine Saba, local NGO leader and Grand Bargain sherpa. As the global humanitarian system faces unprecedented challenges – donor cuts, ongoing colonial power dynamics, and a growing disconnect from those it serves – they explore whether the system can truly be reformed, and if reform is enough. Listen in as Saba speaks passionately from the front lines, sharing how communities are losing faith in a system that often delivers only "Band-Aid" solutions while failing to address – and often instigating – root causes, and Köhler acknowledges the system's shortcomings while defending its foundational merits. This conversation took place as Israel's campaign of airstrikes in Lebanon loomed, lending even greater urgency to their attempts to find common ground on what it would take to shift power in humanitarian response. https://buff.ly/j8bjnDc
