My op-ed @TOLOnews shares actionable recommendations for #NGO #leaders to make aid more effective. Leaders are key in enabling local & expat to work together to learn & be creative in delivering aid.

All ideas are based on my research @RILOHA_Team. Here's a brief thread 👇

While Covid-19 is spreading, the question is how it disturbs humanitarian supply chains. You can learn about latest findings in the below.

It's really critical for us researchers to hear about operational situation from field experts to make our research relevant for problems that practitioners face. Our panel on #MediterraneanSea crisis did just that, & I'm glad to have had role in it @RILOHA_Team
