Historicising Humanitarian Action

This roundtable was convened on 5 July 2022 and built on five years of
 collaborative work in Cambodia and ongoing collaborations within the Centre de
 Reflexion sur l’Action et les Savoirs Humanitaires (CRASH) at
 Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) between Bertrand Taithe,
 Mickaël le Paih and Fabrice Weissman. The central question raised in this
 discussion relates to two profoundly intermeshed issues for humanitarian
 practitioners and organisations: the use of history for humanitarian
 organisations, and the need for them to preserve and maintain archives.
