Humanitarian Studies is:

“The study of societies and vulnerable communities experiencing humanitarian crises originating from disasters, conflicts, refugee situations, and/or political collapse. It studies the causes and impacts of crisis; how people, communities and authorities respond to them, including efforts for prevention and preparedness; how humanitarian action and other external interventions are organized and affect the recovery from crises; and the institutional changes that crises and crisis response engender. “
