The history of humanitarianism has been inseparable from concerns with the forced disappearance of peoples. It has sought to provide protection to those who face possible annihilation and the threat of vanishment. But might humanitarianism itself now be facing its own disappearance in this increasingly hostile world? Join us as we discuss this very question with Gareth Owen OBE, former Humanitarian Director, Save the Children.
