Beyond Relief! Issue 3
ABSTRACT
The Humanitarian Assistance and Disaster Relief Programme, NTS Centre, RSIS, is pleased to bring you the third issue of Beyond Relief!.
In our Feature Article, S. Nanthini writes about pandemic responses in the Southeast Asian region, and how, with new variants emerging – each more dangerous than the last – vaccine access is especially important now more than ever.
This issue’s On the Ground features some of the relief and fundraising efforts that Singaporean humanitarian organisations – World Vision Singapore, Relief Singapore – have undertaken.
On the academic front, our members have continued to publish articles and reports, covering a diverse range of topics including humanitarian diplomacy, disaster data gaps, and future directions in disaster
governance.
In the Spotlight features an upcoming RSIS event – an online webinar to commemorate World Humanitarian Day. The title of this year’s webinar is ‘Responses to Crises during the Pandemic: Challenges and New Modalities’.
We have also highlighted a couple of exciting Training Programmes, which might be of interest to our readers.
We hope that the situation will improve soon so that we can resume our physical network meetings. In the meantime, stay healthy and safe!
