Show Notes
In the second episode of the SOAS Humanitarian Hub Podcast, Jake Tacchi talks with Amy Joce, a 3rd year undergraduate student at SOAS. Amy, who read Development Studies, has just completed a dissertation exploring sexual exploitation within humanitarian settings.
In the backdrop of the #metoo movement, alongside highly publicised scandals, such as those including Oxfam, Amy has provided a relevant and topical piece of research that looks to better understand the role of the humanitarian. We discuss the requirement for greater awareness of the inherent power dynamics at play in complex humanitarian environments, and the need for all organisations to create systems that are able to prevent abuses.
