Consider This: Humanitarian Crises — Negotiating Aid

2024 has been a year of unrelenting humanitarian crises—conflict and violence inflicted on so many, the climate crisis displacing millions, and all of it, ultimately, caused by human actions. But amidst the chaos, there’s still hope. On this episode of #ConsiderThis Melisa Idris speaks with Alexander Matheou, Regional Director of the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC) for Asia Pacific. We explore the work of the IFRC in Afghanistan and Myanmar, and the lessons humanitarian diplomacy has taught us that hope isn’t passive but built through action, advocacy, and collaboration.
