There has been a lot of debate and finger-pointing about the challenges to getting aid to people in need in Gaza. So, let’s settle this once and for all.

Really interesting HPG event today on media reporting of neglected crises. Graph showing level of media reporting of major crises over 23/24 says it all

News is not ‘just what happens’. It’s not inert. It’s curated and sold. But is this ethical? shouldn’t news reporting on a crisis have a purpose? gathara from The New Humanitarian on how news flattens and misrepresents the reality of crises

Here, Crisis Group details the hellish ongoing showdown over El Fasher in #Sudan's North Darfur. We call for more concerted efforts to de-escalate the situation, mediate safe passage for trapped civilians, and get aid to starving Darfuris. crisisgroup.org/africa/horn-af…

“Humanitarian aid shouldn’t be considered political - but we’re being told to just stay in our lane and not speak up. And because of the history of the Palestine-Israel conflict humanitarians are tip-toeing around Gaza. But we should have courage.” - Sorcha O'Callaghan of HPG (now on Bluesky: hpg-odiglobal.bsky.social)
