Forced population movements are a defining feature of almost any humanitarian crisis, shaping the design, targeting, and delivery of emergency responses.

This book investigates how the evolving situation of different forced migrants is accounted for and addressed in humanitarian action in order to improve their access to support and assistance. Bringing together case studies from Africa, Asia, Europe, and the Pacific, this book focuses on a diversity of operational modalities and types of assistance provided by both traditional and non-traditional humanitarian actors to address the specific needs of displaced children, women, people with disabilities and older people, as well as trafficked migrant workers.

This book adopts a broad perspective on humanitarian action, acknowledging how its boundaries are challenged and expanded in forced migration contexts. Its operational and theoretical insights will be useful for a range of readers, from humanitarian and migration researchers and students to practitioners and policymakers.

Arvustused

Forced Migration and Humanitarian Action brings together a wealth of experience and much-needed knowledge on how humanitarian action can be improved to more effectively meet the specific and differentiated needs of displaced people who are all too often lumped together under the label of 'vulnerable groups'.

Walter Kälin, Professor Emeritus at University of Bern, Switzerland, and former Representative of the UN Secretary-General on the human rights of internally displaced persons.

Forced Migration and Humanitarian Action makes a valuable contribution to understanding the strengths and weaknesses of the humanitarian system in responding to the needs of forced migrants at particular risk because of their age, gender, ability and legal status. I hope that the book is not only widely read but that its insights are translated into more effective humanitarian action.

Elizabeth Ferris, Professor at Georgetown University, USA.

This book offers thought-provoking insights into different forced migration scenarios. It poses well-grounded lessons on addressing displacement challenges for researchers and practitioners in Japan and around the globe.
