Recent and severe international funding cuts to the humanitarian and foreign aid sector have compounded this issue into an emergency: a critical shortfall in the digital infrastructure that underpins humanitarian and global health research, learning, and operations. As organisations work under intense pressure in emergency environments with diminishing budgets, data collection and the long-term preservation of institutional memory and knowledge is frequently deprioritised.In this session we will consider the profound and permanent consequences of this loss, not only for humanitarian organisations themselves, but for global historical and accountability efforts. The discussion will draw on emerging work within the Humanitarian Archive Emergency (HAE) initiative: an international cross sector network to identify at-risk digital humanitarian records and develop ethical salvage solutions for future research and humanitarian operations. Amongst the salvage solutions we introduce the Digital Humanitarian Archives Toolkit.SpeakersProf. Bertrand Taithe is the Principal Investigator on the project. He is a founding member of the Humanitarian and Conflict Response Institute and was the executive director from 2009 - 2020. His research interests are primarily on humanitarianism and humanitarian aid practices. He has published on the history of humanitarian medicine, the history of humanitarian and missionary aid and aid in conflicts. He currently leads a large research project on the history of humanitarian aid entitled Developing Humanitarian Medicine.Dr Stephanie Rinaldi is the HAE Coalition Co-ordinator. She has a doctorate in Political Theory and has been working on the research programmes of the Humanitarian and Conflict Response Institute since 2017. In addition to HAE she currently manages the Researching the Impact of Attacks on Healthcare and Developing Humanitarian Medicine projects and previously coordinated HCRI’s Emergency Medical Teams research programmes.---Please register via: https://www.graduateinstitute.ch/communications/events/humanitarian-archives-emergency-how-and-why-digital-solutions-contribute - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/geneva/the-humanitarian-archives-emergency/100001982272951760 - **Event Categories**: health-wellness - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket URL**: https://consumer.pxf.io/c/1339408/3151484/39691?partnerpropertyid=1191892&MediaPartnerPropertyId=1191892&svlink=14105511&level=1&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.eventbrite.com%2Fe%2Fthe-humanitarian-archives-emergency-tickets-1982272951760 - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 0, max: 0, currency: GBP ## Event venue details - **city**: Geneva - **state**: GE - **country**: Switzerland - **location**: Geneva - **lat**: 46.22092749999999 - **long**: 6.1434219 - **full address**: Geneva, Switzerland ## Event Organizer details - **affiliate_id**: 10 - **organizer**: Humanitarian and Conflict Response Institute (https://allevents.in/org/humanitarian-and-conflict-response-institute/22517684) ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: banner - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events8/banners/904a60a6c92d60a57165c3036763d886b42cf9af465d678120bb944509f0b02b-rimg-w1200-h600-dc693281-gmir.jpg?v=1770297517 - **Alt text**: thumbnail - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events8/banners/e03446d555aa9fc02b733a5aa082b914ee63e58a20945ed17c422b6e97843902-rimg-w400-h400-dc693281-gmir.jpg?v=1770297517 ## FAQs - **Q**: When is the event happening? - **A:** Tue, 24 Feb, 2026 at 06:00 pm - **Q**: Where is the event happening? - **A:** Geneva, Switzerland - **Q**: What is the ticket price? - **A:** starting from 0 up to 0 GBP - **Q**: Who is organizing the event? - **A:** Humanitarian and Conflict Response Institute - **Q**: What type of event is this? - **A:** health-wellness - **Q**: Where can I find ticket details about The Humanitarian Archives Emergency ? - **A:** You can find ticket details about this event on AllEvents. ## Structured Data (JSON-LD) ```json [ { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@type": "Event", "name": "The Humanitarian Archives Emergency", "image": "https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events8/banners/904a60a6c92d60a57165c3036763d886b42cf9af465d678120bb944509f0b02b-rimg-w1200-h600-dc693281-gmir.jpg?v=1770297517", "startDate": "2026-02-24", "endDate": "2026-02-24", "url": "https://allevents.in/geneva/the-humanitarian-archives-emergency/100001982272951760", "location": { "@type": "Place", "name": "Geneva", "address": { "@type": "PostalAddress", "streetAddress": "Maison de la paix", "postalCode": "1211 Genève 1", "addressLocality": "Geneva", "addressRegion": "GE", "addressCountry": "CH" }, "geo": { "@type": "GeoCoordinates", "latitude": "46.22092749999999", "longitude": "6.1434219" } }, "eventAttendanceMode": "https://schema.org/OfflineEventAttendanceMode", "description": "This event will feature HCRI academics discussing how an why digital solutions contribute to the survival of archives in danger - Hybrid", "offers": [ { "@type": "AggregateOffer", "availability": "https://schema.org/InStock", "priceCurrency": "GBP", "availabilityStarts": "2026-04-04", "availabilityEnds": "2026-02-24", "validFrom": "2026-04-04", "lowPrice": "0.00", "highPrice": "0.00", "price": "0.00", "url": "https://allevents.in/geneva/the-humanitarian-archives-emergency/100001982272951760" }, { "@type": "Offer", "availability": "https://schema.org/InStock", "priceCurrency": "GBP", "availabilityStarts": "2026-04-04", "availabilityEnds": "", "validFrom": "2026-04-04", "url": "https://allevents.in/geneva/the-humanitarian-archives-emergency/100001982272951760", "price": 0, "name": "General Admission" } ], "organizer": [ { "@type": "Organization", "name": "Humanitarian and Conflict Response Institute", "url": "https://allevents.in/org/humanitarian-and-conflict-response-institute/22517684", "description": "We are a leading global centre for the study of humanitarianism and conflict response, global health, international disaster management and peacebuilding.
