Fordham University, Lincoln Center Campus, June 9th-22nd 2013
We are pleased to announce our first intensive summer program designed specifically for undergraduate students, Introduction to Humanitarian Action: Theory and Application. Led by Alexander van Tulleken, M.D., the course will provide undergraduate students with a practical and theoretical introduction to the study of humanitarian action; it will seek to bridge theory with practice and will include lectures given by seasoned humanitarian aid professionals.
COURSE DESCRIPTION
Humanitarian action, that portion of international affairs which endeavors to relieve the suffering of populations in crisis, and its ideological counterpart, humanitarianism, are notions that cutacross every aspect of contemporary life.
In considering how we, as individuals, or how the “international community” might respond to suffering in Libya, the Horn of Africa, or marginalized and disaster-affected populations in “the west,” we are forced to invoke a wide array of intellectual tools. Ethical, moral, cultural and spiritual considerations confront logistic, economic, demographic and geo-political modes of thought in circumstances of vast complexity: war, famine and natural disaster. Humanitarianism is an area that demands academic inquiry across many disciplines: its objects of fundamental concern are life, death, suffering and freedom.
Yet as an area for academic inquiry it is still in nascent stages. And so humanitarian activities are often shaped by expediency, pragmatism, whim, fashion, cultural assumptions and a technocratic, protocolized approach to addressing suffering rather than a formal, serious inquiry. Fordham has long been a world leader in the academic study of humanitarianism and in professionalizing aid work, and this intensive two-week course aims to continue this essential process; to ask what it means to undertake humanitarian work, to understand how such work can be made more effective, and for whom, and to ask about the nature of suffering and oppression and our obligations to our fellow men.
For more details, please visit the Humanitarian Affairs website.
*This program is closed for 2013. |
