    Who owns the story? | Decolonise How?

    "The first place that people are dehumanised is in stories." - Sophie Otiende The way we tell stories about humanitarian crises can distort the realities of the people living through them. From news coverage and research to aid donation appeals, there is a tendency to simplify, decontextualise, and even dehumanise – to portray locals as suffering and helpless, and the outsiders riding to their rescue as heroic and selfless.  In Decolonise How? host Patrick Gathara brings together journalists, humanitarians, researchers, and affected communities, to understand why this happens, and how to change it. For his first podcast, Gathara is joined by Kenyan teacher, activist and advocate for survivors of human trafficking, Sophie Otiende, and Kelsie Kilawna Marchand, a Syilx journalist from Canada. They discuss community, consent, what to do differently – and just what is a "coyote" move?  Decolonise How? is a new podcast by The New Humanitarian that examines the stories we tell about humanitarian crises.

In this episode, Mogstad gives examples of counter-productive language, and discusses ways to improve.   Guests:    Heidi Mogstad, senior researcher at the Chr. Michelsen Institute in Norway.   Got a question or feedback?

    Burnout in the aid sector and how to respond | Rethinking Humanitarianism

    Humanitarians have a "burnout culture", experts say. They work long hours in difficult environments. They're trying to help people in the worst moments of their lives. In the middle of today's funding crisis, they're also deciding who gets aid and who does not. In this episode, humanitarians and experts in mental health or wellbeing  talk about what's driving  high rates of burnout, how people can identify it and take action, and what organisations must do better to help their staff.   Guests:    Javid Abdelmoneim, international president of Médecins Sans Frontières   Nancy Nyambura, regional staff counsellor at Médecins Sans Frontières   Gemma Houldey, author of The Vulnerable Humanitarian: Ending Burnout Culture in the Aid Sector   Got a question or feedback?
