The fifth conversation in our Reconstructing Children's Rights Institute series, Confronting Paternalism, Neo-Colonialism, and Racism in the Design and Implementation of Child and Family Programs in Humanitarian and Development Settings, will take a critical look at the ways that humanitarian and development actors design and implement child development and family support programs, especially ways in which paternalistic, neocolonial, and racist thinking can imbue such programs.
We are joined by two experts - Zarlasht Halaimzai and Tina Hyder. The conversation will be global in nature but will also feature a timely and urgent focus on Afghanistan.
Organized by the CPC Learning Network, housed in the Program on Forced Migration and Health in the Department of Population and Family Health at Columbia University’s Mailman School of Public Health, this discussion brings forward critiques which have been marginalized to the fringes of international relations scholarship and teaching to the center of our discussions.
We hope that the Institute will be a vehicle for learning, information sharing, and taking actionable next steps. We are striving to create a space in which our discussions and resources can tackle hard topics while remaining a safe and respectful environment for evolution and growth among those who participate. Due to this sensitivity, please note that the views expressed by our speakers in each broadcast are personal and not a reflection of their organization's views.
