Re-envisioning Humanitarianism for a Changing World
October 15, 8:30am ET, Virtual
The demand for humanitarian aid is rapidly intensifying, with over 305 million people requiring assistance and protection due to a myriad of crises.

In the Global Ethics Day 2025 keynote event, an expert panel will explore questions around power, accountability, and the need for greater inclusivity in the design, funding, and delivery of humanitarian aid, both today and into the future.
