The course was held in Amman, Jordan, from December 3-12, 2023, at the invitation of the WHO Eastern Mediterranean Regional Office. Participants included 65 humanitarian professionals from 52 countries across the Middle East and Africa.
Like the original course, which is offered each spring in Massachusetts and is now open for registration, students spent class time learning key concepts in areas including human rights and international humanitarian law, in addition to practical skills for meeting the needs of populations in crisis. They then put what they learned into practice during an immersive three-day disaster and conflict simulation.
