HERE-Geneva

Founded in Geneva in 2014, the Humanitarian Exchange and Research Centre (HERE) works to close the gap between policy and humanitarian practice. We endeavour to understand and promote the steps that need to be taken in order to uphold the rights of crisis-affected people.

Our mission is to contribute to improving collective performance and the effectiveness of principled humanitarian action, especially in armed conflicts. We do so by researching key topical questions in humanitarian action and by promoting exchange of different points of view. The aim is to stimulate reflection, fuel debate and dialogue, influence policy, and instigate change.
