The New Humanitarian

Published purpose

This project aims to provide an inside view and provide more field-based and gender perspectives from the front lines of global humanitarian crises, and encourage more representative media coverage on gender issues. Project activities include: (1) amplifying the voices and stories of women and girls in humanitarian settings in mainstream media coverage; (2) conducting field reporting on mass displacement and refugee issues; and (3) analyzing aid policy to inform effective and accountable crisis prevention and response. This project is being implemented by IRIN, a non-profit association whose mission is to put independent journalism at the service of the millions of people affected by humanitarian crises.
