Frontline Negotiators

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.
