Every day, humanitarian workers negotiate with different counterparts – from armed groups to government authorities, and from religious leaders to displaced communities – to deliver aid in crisis situations.
In "Frontline Negotiators: Stories from the Field", we will guide you through personal stories told by humanitarian professionals who negotiate to access, assist and protect people in crises. The series is produced by the Centre of Competence on Humanitarian Negotiation.
Protecting communities in conflict, at the crossroads of negotiation and mediation
How can mediation efforts help build trust and protect communities in conflict situations?
In today’s episode, we explore how mediation approaches can support protection efforts in humanitarian settings. Our guest, Jérôme Grimaud, highlights the importance of listening to communities’ perceptions and adapting to their own definition of protection for a more effective humanitarian response.
This is part of the third season of "Frontline Negotiators: Stories from the Field". It features personal stories told by humanitarian professionals as they negotiate to access, assist and protect people in crisis.
Across the season you will hear first-hand accounts from humanitarian workers from different backgrounds, agencies, nationalities and technical profiles who will share about the challenge of delivering aid in some of the most high-pressure environments in the world.
The series is produced by the Centre of Competence on Humanitarian Negotiation.
