SUMMARY:A conversation: ‘Will crisis reporting survive?'
DESCRIPTION:There is a growing and disturbing gap in the provision of quality information about serious humanitarian crises. At a time of deep polarization\, fake news\, and serious global challenges like migration\, climate change and the war in Syria\, independent\, quality journalism is needed to make sense of a complex world. Yet the media industry is in crisis. What consequences does this have for how people and policy makers think and act upon humanitarian topics? You are cordially invited to join this debate on humanitarian crisis reporting! \nReporting about international issues has declined steadily in recent decades. A recent study from the Humanitarian Journalism Project found mainstream coverage of humanitarian crisis to be ‘selective\, sporadic\, simplistic and partial’. There is hardly funding to do thorough investigative reporting\, giving space to the complexity on the ground. To ensures coverage of humanitarian crises\, NGOs and journalists often become more dependent on each other\, which raises risks around the independence of the journalism. \nJoin this debate with Heba Aly\, Director of The New Humanitarian\, on the ethics and viability of crisis reporting in a divided world\, and how to support independent responsible journalism about some of the most critical issues of our time! \nThe evening will start with a keynote speech from Heba Aly\, followed by a panel discussion with Dutch journalists\, funders and aid workers. Tickets are available on the website of Humanity House! \nSpeakers \n>  Heba Aly runs The New Humanitarian (formerly IRIN News)\, an independent\, non-profit newsroom reporting from the heart of conflicts and disasters. Her work has taken her to places like Syria\, Afghanistan\, Iraq\, Chad and Libya; and she received a grant from the Pulitzer Center on Crisis Reporting for work in northern Sudan. Her recent TEDx Talk This link opens in a new tab – “Stop Eating Junk News” – drives home the importance of responsible journalism from crisis zones.\n> Other speakers will be announced shortly\nFor more information\, please visit our website This link opens in a new tab. \nTickets: https://www.humanityhouse.org/en/ticket-sales/?hheventid=50940

SUMMARY:GES | Hague Talks - How to connect business to the global good?
DESCRIPTION:Traditionally\, only bold social entrepreneurs\, innovators\, and philanthropists dared to think big to improve the world through their businesses.

Engage with innovators from the Global Entrepreneurship Summit?  Are you curious to understand The Hague’s role as an ecosystem for innovators focusing on a better\, safer and more just world?  Please join a special edition of ‘Hague Talks’ here at GES where inspiring entrepreneurs share their stories and ideas. \nSpeakers will be announced shortly. \nThis event is in cooperation with a numbers of partners\, including RVO\, The Hague Business Agency\, and the Humanity Hub. \nRegistrations: https://www.haguetalks.com/event/global-good/

SUMMARY:Seminar: 25 years after the Rwandan Genocide
DESCRIPTION:In less than a hundred days\, more than 800\,000 Rwandese people were murdered in a deliberate and well-organized act of genocide\, orchestrated by then-members of the Rwandan government.\nThe genocidal regime targeted the Tutsi population and moderate Hutu who opposed the killings. Many Hutu and Twa also lost their lives as the genocide unfolded in the context of a civil war between the Hutu-dominated government and a Tutsi-dominated rebel movement\, the Rwandan Patriotic Front (RPF). \nThe killings started on the 6th of April\, following a rocket attack that caused a plane carrying the presidents of Rwanda and Burundi to crash. Despite the presence of a considerable UN peacekeeping force at the outbreak of the violence\, the international community failed to intervene\, pulling most of their forces out and ignoring any pleas for help. This failure to act allowed the killings to continue until the 4th of July\, when Rwandan Patriotic Front forces\, then led by the current president Paul Kagame\, were able to take control of the country\, ousting those responsible for the genocide from the country. \nHow did the Rwandan Genocide come to be and why did it happen? Could it have been prevented if the international community had done more? If so\, how does humanity as a whole prevent such events from happening in the future? This seminar will address these questions. \nPlease note: this seminar will take place at the The Hague Campus\, Location Wijnhaven: Room 346 \nContact person: Daan Sanderse This link opens in a new tab: d.sanderse.2@umail.leidenuniv.nl \nSpeakers\nBert Ingelaere This link opens in a new tab\nFilip Reyntjens This link opens in a new tab\nBoth speakers are affiliated to the Institute of Development Policy\, University of Antwerp. Read their biographies This link opens in a new tab. \nDiscussant\nMargot Leegwater

SUMMARY:In Vrede // In Peace
DESCRIPTION:74 years after the end of the Second World War\, the show In Vrede shows how the war scars still have an influence on our lives. How is it possible – despite the fact that we now live in peace – that many people seem to have no real peace with existence and with history? A show about the devastating and connecting power of stories. \n  \n“A worthy and impressive piece about the wounds that war leaves behind.” – ★★★★ De Volkskrant \n  \nFor this production\, the company collaborates with writer and translator Nabil Nabo. He fled from Syria and came in contact with BERG & BOS through the On File foundation. Nabil has translated the piece In Vrede into Arabic. Thus there is an Arabic surtitles present. \nNabil is also the model for the Syrian character in the play. His experiences about what it is like to connect to a new society after a flight form the basis for one of the storylines in the play. A storyline that represents the recent wars and the new Dutchmen we have welcomed in recent years. \nIn Vrede is a performance about the devastating and connecting power of stories. Devastating when stories are distorted or told from one predominant perspective\, and bound as big stories are told and all storytellers can speak. \n

SUMMARY:Digitalisation & International Cooperation  – Risks and Opportunities
DESCRIPTION:New technologies provide great opportunities for development cooperation: accelerating change\, improving results and stimulating innovation. The ICRC gathered a large amount of international development and humanitarian NGO’s in London in December in order to reflect on the consequences of digitalisation. Topics included protecting civilians in the digital age\, opportunities for digital transformation & innovation\, weaponization of information and digital risks in armed conflict – a broad agenda that led to the realisation that collective norms on digital do-no-harm & digital opportunities are necessary. Through the conference they put together a report on the matter\, asking the key questions; \nHow can we promote digital do-no-harm?  And stimulate responsible innovation?  \nThe debate will present the findings of the report\, raise awareness and kickstart a reflection with the panel and you. The Dutch Ministry of Foreign Affairs is currently working on a Digitalisation and Development Cooperation policy\, NGO’s are actively exploring new grounds; the ICRC report is extremely timely. \nDelphine van Solinge\, Adviser on Digital Risks for Populations at the ICRC will inform us about the challenges posed to humanitarian actors and conflict management in the digital era\, as well as ways forward to tackle them. It will be followed by a panel discussion including speakers from the Dutch Ministry of Foreign Affairs\, Partos\, the Red Cross\, and Leiden University Innovation Centre. Afterwards\, the discussion will be opened to include the audience in the debate on digitalisation & international cooperation. \nPlease register at this link here.\nThe amount of seats is restricted\, we will work on a first-come-first-serve base. \n  \nProgramme  \n14:30 : Walk-in with coffee & tea \n15:00 : Opening by Wim Janson\, Head of International Relations\, The Hague \n15:05 : Presentation of the Conference Report “Digital Risks in Situations of Armed Conflict” by Delphine van Solinge\, ICRC Geneva \n15:20 : Panel Discussion \n\n\n\nDutch Ministry of Foreign Affairs\, Tjeerd de Vries\nRed Cross\nPartos\nLeiden University Innovation Centre\, Thomas Baar\n\n\n\nModerated by Elisabeth van Steenhoven \n16:00 : Plenary Debate on Digitalisation & International Cooperation \n16:55 : Closing and follow-up \n17:00 : Networking Drinks \n

SUMMARY:Future Session #3: Navigating the Data Journey Methodology (Akvo)
DESCRIPTION:In 2019\, The Spindle and the Hague Humanity Hub collaborate in organising a series of (almost) monthly inspirational working sessions for our mutual communities! In these sessions\, we’ll explore the relevance of (technological) trends for the future of development cooperation. The sessions are high in energy and always involve an expert. See what’s going on and get more grip on the implications and ideas that would work!\nFuture Session #3\nIn this interactive session\, Marten Schoonman This link opens in a new tab\, services manager at Akvo\, will facilitate a workshop on the data journey methodology. The methodology consists of four phases: Design\, Capture\, Understand and Act. They form the starting point for organisations to ensure data is used to contribute to lasting and inclusive impact. Akvo Foundation partners with governments and non-governmental organisations to improve the way they implement development programmes and make decisions using data since. \n“Having the right knowledge and resources to effectively collaborate can be a challenge. Good data is critical for contributing to impact\, and the right skills and tools are essential for data-driven decision making. So how do you ensure success\, from designing and implementing your programme to creating sustainable change? We provide a series of services to ensure you succeed at every step of your programme. We support these services with our open source data platform to help you capture\, clean\, visualise and share your data in the best way possible.”\n– Our approach to your data journey | Akvo This link opens in a new tab \nDuring this Future Session\, we’ll discuss how the data journey methodology can help you to: \n\nAlign distributed teams and bolster co-ownership of your programme\nAchieve clarity and oversight on every aspect of your programme\nMake confident management decisions based on accurate and reliable data\nShowcase your results to the people who need to see them\nGain lessons learned to improve future programmes\n\nTo sign up\, see The Spindle website
