Dismantling colonial legacies
Despite a burgeoning discourse within the humanitarian health community regarding decolonisation, there remains lack of practical guidance for researchers seeking to decolonise their work. We conducted a qualitative study which aimed to explore the perceptions of research and teaching staff at the Health in Humanitarian Crisis Centre (HHCC) and their external partners —including humanitarian health researchers, practitioners, and donors— regardin…
Smart economics’ as gendered racial capitalism
This article highlights how ‘smart economics’ as a paradigm for gender equity reflects a continuum of the gendered and racialised history of capitalism’s appropriations of equity and social justice. By focusing on the example of one corporation, Unilever, and its co-option of social justice and equity discourse, the article aims to put into perspective the limits and ideological meanings of gender equity as ‘smart economics’ when understood as be…
Decolonising humanitarian health
Despite growing calls and efforts to decolonise global and humanitarian health, there is limited practical guidance for researchers, educators and practitioners on how to do so. This paper fills this gap by offering a narrative exploration of key recommendations on decolonising global/humanitarian health research, partnerships, teaching, organisational structures and other practices. We present concrete guidelines to support humanitarian actors i…

Both mainstream and critical discourse on women and the peace process in Afghanistan, however, relied on the production of essentialized subjectivities which failed to recognize the political and social complexity of women's lives, diminished their intellectual contributions and silenced their…

Experiences in Researching Conflict and Violence
From ‘gender equality and ‘women’s empowerment’ to global justice
The language of ‘gender equality’ and ‘women’s empowerment’ was mobilised by feminists in the 1980s and 1990s as a way of getting women’s rights onto the international development agenda. Their efforts can be declared a resounding success. The international development industry has fully embraced these terms. From international NGOs to donor governments to multilateral agencies the language of gender equality and women’s empowerment is a pervasiv…
