The focus on case studies
The need of LRRD has been on the international agenda for decades
its implementation on the ground had remained difficult
LRRD in the Tsunami Response (FIRST DAY)
The first case in which this idea was applied
Agostino Miozzo (Director General at the
Italian Presidency of the Council of Ministers)
how operations and roles of the various actors were governed by ideas and
practices regarding the LRRD
what consequences those ideas, practices and
subsequent actions have had for the affected population
The majority of criticisms of LRRD
its practical application in humanitarian crises triggered by armed conflict or
complex political emergencies
as opposed to those triggered by natural catastrophes
Protection and LRRD in complex political emergencies (SECOND DAY)
Sandro De Luca (CISP - Director of the Geographic Area Africa)
specific reference to the Somali case
Food security
one of the main fields concerned by
the transition from humanitarian aid to long-term development
Current food crisis and challenges to the LRRD (THIRD DAY)
