The Humanitarian Reset

The current humanitarian model is unsustainable and faces significant funding cuts and political complexities. In response, Under-Secretary-General for Humanitarian Affairs for the U.N., Tom Fletcher, has called for a ‘Humanitarian Reset.’

Sofie Garde Thomle, a senior humanitarian official with the UN-OCHA in New York, will give a timely lecture on the Humanitarian Reset. Ms. Thomle will address the challenges and how the reset seeks to regroup, reform, and renew humanitarian action, with a focus on local leadership and sustainable solutions to global crises.

Fordham University students are invited to learn about this critical, ongoing humanitarian reform initiative, ask questions, and network with peers.
