Humanitarian Hub Podcast - Episode 1, Dr. Suda Perera
In the first episode of the SOAS Humanitarian Hub Podcast, Jake Tacchi talks with Dr Suda Perera, Senior Teaching Fellow in Conflict and Migration at SOAS, about her recent article: ‘To Boldly Know: Knowledge, Peacekeeping and Remote Data-Gathering in Conflict Affected States’.
Dr Perera’s article covers the growth of remote technologies as a tool for data gathering in conflict affected areas. Using her own experience of the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), Dr Perera discusses how these new technologies are affecting both research and humanitarian action, by creating greater distance from intended beneficiaries.
This insightful and extremely relevant article is available online at:
