Event Details

Medical humanitarian organizations and human rights groups often operate in the same crisis zones but have different aims and approaches to negotiating access.

Join panelists from Doctors Without Borders/Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF), Physicians for Human Rights, Tufts University's Feinstein International Center, and the Harvard Humanitarian Initiative for a discussion of the dilemmas faced by both humanitarian and human rights organizations trying to work in crisis zones. How different are the two approaches? Are they compatible on the ground? How are decisions made about establishing projects? And what compromises are acceptable when negotiating access to populations in immediate danger?

MSF currently operates emergency medical programs in nearly 70 countries, including Afghanistan, Somalia, Myanmar, and other areas in crisis.
