A full house for the last panel on Climate, Conflict, and Migration for today’s @CSDConference @warstudies @KCLSecurity!
@carneross has just told us that out of the 100million refugees last year, the majority were climate refugees. 😱

Looking forward to this interesting discussion on climate, migration & small islands later as part of the @warstudies @CSDConference.
My MA cohort started this conference almost a decade ago, guided by @cheng_christine & I'm so pleased to support our brilliant students today! 😊

At the annual @CSDConference, ICAN CEO @sanambna urges all countries that make statements on supporting #peace, #women and #youth to “open the spaces and delegations that [they] have…It’s doable, it’s been done.” #CSDC2021 #CSDConference2021

ICAN CEO @sanambna (@CSDConference Keynote) speaks on #UNSCR1325: “We have the language, good practice and lessons of what works and doesn’t. What we need is the systemization of good practices and getting rid of inertia and 'old boys' networks that perpetuate” issues. #CSDC2021

Our CEO @sanambna (@KingsCollegeLon @CSDConference Keynote) shares how ICAN adapted to supporting #WASL during #COVID19: "It’s really important to strengthen #local #activism and #community organizations — you need the local-rootedness but you also need global-connectedness.”
CSDConference retweeted
ICAN CEO @sanambna is the keynote speaker at @KingsCollegeLon's @CSDConference. She answers a question on the global #COVID19 response. The reality is, “when crisis hits, the international actor is irrelevant. The first responder is local. That’s always been the case.” #CSDC2021

To understand capitalism nowadays requires understanding the end of neoliberalism in the kate 1990s and the rise of a global rentier capitalism, in which a few people profit from rents from stocks, assets and land ownershipy Thanks to Guy Standing for explaining this! #csdc2021

QUESTION:
Is there any society that you think has become MORE patriarchal over the past 50 years?
e.g. women have less economic or physical autonomy, less mobility, fewer positions of seniority & leadership, more controlled by male guardians, & increasingly seen as inferior?

This is the lowest number of daily Covid-19 vaccination Zimbabwe has witnessed in weeks. The low number in the daily vaccination could be an indication that Zimbabwe is now facing Covid-19 vaccine shortages.

Don't forget to sign up for this exciting film screening with @CarolineMoser4 on 29th March!
The film looks at the transformation over time of an illegal squatter settlement, and the intergenerational social capital embedded in local families.

Summing up @HAldersonICRC says neutrality isn't about being silent, it’s not doing nothing: it’s staying out to stay in. Neutrality is part of a package of humanitarian principles.
It's a means to an end as opposed to a system of values that we abide to blindly #CSDConference
CSDConference retweeted
.@VickieHawkins moves on to discuss the humanitarian nexus - the idea of bringing development and humanitarians together for the same ends. #CSDConference
CSDConference retweeted
.@Humanicontraria says the number one unforeseen risk in humanitarian sector is 'lawfare' - the cynical use of law to apply pressure on aid work. #CSDConference
CSDConference retweeted
What is humanitarian action? Delivering food, medical care... but it's also about speaking to people who may be on terrorist lists. If we don't, then we can't work in places where we need to. But in the mind of politicians this isn't humanitarian action. @HAldersonICRC
CSDConference retweeted
Next question focuses on the criminalisation of aid.
@HAldersonICRC says counter terrorism policies may be legitimate, but @ICRC concern is the impact on populations who may not be able to access services, and humanitarians, who may be barred from speaking to certain groups.
CSDConference retweeted
Discussion kicks off with question as to whether humanitarians can remain neutral in the face of attacks?
@HAldersonICRC says yes, but neutrality is one of several principles that form @ICRC modus operandi - humanity, impartiality and independence being the others.
