The humanitarian sector is built on principles, learning, and action. But in an increasingly complex world, how do we ensure assistance reaches those who need it most? How do we turn knowledge into meaningful change?

ALNAP podcasts explore these critical questions from different angles. The Learning Curve delves into the challenges of learning in the sector, uncovering barriers to evidence-based action and discussing how we can improve humanitarian response through shared knowledge. A Matter of Priorities tackles the ethical dilemmas of humanitarian aid, asking how we should allocate resources when needs exceed funding.

Join experts, practitioners, and thought leaders in open, honest conversations about the future of humanitarian action.

What research can hold in war: Diaries from Sudan

Saison 3

lundi 28 septembre 2026 • Durée 18:24

These diaries capture how humanitarian research in Sudan unfolded over the course of 2025, through the parallel experiences of two researchers working from inside and outside the country. The research was undertaken as part of ALNAP ’s 2026 State of the Humanitarian System work, to understand how humanitarian assistance in Sudan was being delivered and experienced during the war, and what this reveals about the wider humanitarian system.

Aymen, a Sudanese researcher, was the study’s local consultant and worked inside Sudan to support field access and in-country engagement.
Jana managed the research from outside the country, led remote interviews, analysis and sense-making with ALNAP and Aymen.

As conflict intensified and access became increasingly constrained, Aymen and Jana reflected on how their roles, methods, and assumptions were tested. The entries do not aim to summarise findings of the research, but to document moments of listening, restraint, and uncertainty, offering insight into what it means to conduct humanitarian research during an active conflict.

Episode 5: Lessons from IAHE's evaluation of the Syria–Türkiye earthquake response: A conversation with Tasneem Mowjee

Saison 1 · Épisode 5

mardi 9 décembre 2025 • Durée 13:08

In this episode of The Learning Curve, Juliet Parker speaks with independent evaluator Tasneem Mowjee, lead author of the recent Inter-Agency Humanitarian Evaluation of the Syria–Türkiye earthquake response. Together, they explore what the evaluation revealed — from recurring system-wide challenges to promising examples of community engagement and duty of care.

Tasneem reflects on why long-established learning still struggles to shape real-time decisions, what it means to respond in a middle-income context, and how the sector can better empower frontline and local actors during this moment of humanitarian transition.

All IAHE reports are are commissioned, funded, and published by the IAHE Steering Group.

Guest: Tasneem Mowjee, Director, Policy to Practice Team (P2PT)

Episode 4: Rethinking incentives in humanitarian action: A conversation with Damian Lilly

Saison 1 · Épisode 4

jeudi 20 novembre 2025 • Durée 10:53

Rethinking incentives in humanitarian action

In this episode of ‘The Learning Curve’, Juliet Parker, Director of ALNAP, speaks with Damian Lilly, an independent consultant based in Mozambique and a former UN and NGO humanitarian leader. Together, they unpack one of the sector’s most persistent challenges: how to turn learning into meaningful change.

Drawing on Damian’s recent article co-authored with Mike Pearson, the conversation explores why existing incentive structures within the humanitarian system often prevent real reform. Damian argues that while the sector has no shortage of ideas, evidence, or learning, the problem lies in the economics of aid—how agencies are funded, rewarded, and held accountable.

Resetting humanitarian needs: A discussion with Hugo Slim

Saison 2 · Épisode 5

mercredi 2 avril 2025 • Durée 25:13

In this episode of 'A Matter of Priorities,' as the sector as a whole looks at a 'humanitarian reset,' our host Alice Obrecht delves into the definition of a humanitarian need with Hugo Slim and how these boundaries might be redefined.

The episode features insights from Hugo Slim, a senior research fellow at the University of Oxford, who discusses the need to redefine humanitarian needs through six theoretical approaches and three core questions that agencies should address.

The conversation further explores the ethical dilemmas of prioritising short-term emergency aid over long-term recovery efforts, with practical examples such as displacement scenarios in South Sudan. The discussion underscores a shift towards focusing on vital interests and necessary programming over broader, optimal life improvements to better address urgent humanitarian crises.

The prioritisation challenge in focus: WFP

Saison 2 · Épisode 4

vendredi 31 janvier 2025 • Durée 24:47

In this episode of A Matter of Priorities, our host Alice Obrecht takes a deep dive into the ripple effects of unprecedented budget cuts to the World Food Program (WFP). With a shortfall of over 50% in its 2023 budget, WFP faced its largest financial crisis in its 60-year history, forcing it to make drastic reductions in food and cash assistance across the globe.

We explore how these cuts unfolded on the ground, particularly in Uganda, and the human toll they’ve taken.

The discussions highlight the structural challenges, the human impact of these cuts — including heartbreaking examples of coping mechanisms adopted by refugees — and the broader implications for the humanitarian sector.

Guests:
Valerie Guarnieri: Assistant Executive Director for Program and Policy Development at the UN World Food Programme (WFP).
Kristof Titeca: Professor of Development Studies at the Institute of Development Policy, University of Antwerp.
Roos Derrix: PhD student at the University of Antwerp.

Saison 2 · Épisode 3

mardi 21 janvier 2025 • Durée 18:15

In this episode of A Matter of Priorities, we explore the significant budget cuts faced by the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) and their far-reaching consequences. Established in 1863, the ICRC provides critical protection and assistance to people affected by armed conflict. However, in 2023, the organisation announced cuts amounting to 440 million Swiss francs, a drastic 16% reduction in its budget.

Alice speaks with Olivier Ray, ICRC’s Director of Mobilisation, Movement, and Partnership, about the challenges of implementing such cuts, the ethical dilemmas involved, and the impact on both ICRC staff and the communities they serve. The interview was done in March 2024.

Mind the gap

Saison 2 · Épisode 1

lundi 9 décembre 2024 • Durée 21:17

In 2023, funding for humanitarian assistance and protection declined by 20 percent, despite new major crises and the continuation of long-standing conflicts. And there are expectations that cuts will only continue into 2025. Many in the humanitarian sector are referring to this as a catastrophic ‘financial cliff’ that will have major implications for agencies and the communities that they serve.

In this podcast episode, we delve into this ‘financial cliff’, asking experts how we measure and understand resource gaps in the humanitarian sector. We also ask whether this really is an unprecedented moment, looking into the data.

Guests:
Ed Schenkenberg van Mierop, Co-founder and Executive Director, HERE-GENEVA
Niklas Rieger, Independent Consultant
Elizabeth Vilkman, Humanitarian Program Specialist, SIDA
Simon Levine, Research Fellow, Global Risks and Resilience ODI

ALNAP’s A Matter of Priorities: a podcast on tough choices in humanitarian funding trailer

Saison 2

vendredi 15 novembre 2024 • Durée 03:54

The humanitarian principle of providing assistance to those in greatest need is facing unprecedented challenges. With funding decreasing and the number of people requiring support rising sharply, humanitarian donors and organisations are grappling with impossible decisions about who to prioritise and what needs to address.

A Matter of Priorities dives into these dilemmas, examining how the sector makes complex choices when resources fall short of meeting overwhelming demand. From deciding who receives aid to redefining what constitutes humanitarian "need," this podcast brings together experts from across the sector to explore these pressing questions.

Join our host, Alice Obrecht (ALNAP’s Head of Research and Impact), as we address key topics such as:

What does ethical and effective decision-making look like in humanitarian aid, and who holds the power to make these critical choices?
How has humanitarian action evolved in recent years and how should we redefine the role of humanitarians?

Through this podcast, we aim to deepen your understanding of the complexities surrounding prioritisation in the humanitarian aid sector.
