Workshop Registration: Nordic Humanitarian Aid to the Palestinians, 24 October 2023
Universities of Lund and Copenhagen Workshop
Last day to register: 2 October 2023
This workshop will focus on the Nordic aid to Palestine. The aim with this workshop is to initiate research which will add to the literature on “new humanitarianism” and to develop theory, ethics and practice of humanitarianism with perspectives from research in humanities and social sciences by focusing on Nordic initiatives in the occupied Palestinian territory. We are interested in state projects as well as the work of NGO’s over a long time, from 1948 until today. Palestinian experiences of humanitarianism should not be understood as an exception: rather, Palestinian refugees’ ways of living with and navigating humanitarianism can teach us about refugee conditions more generally.
