Researchers from CEPESE coordinate a special issue of the journal "Glocalism".

The thematic issue "Humanitarian Action and Glocalism" of the open-access journal "Glocalism" has just been published, coordinated by CEPESE researchers João Casqueira Cardoso and Cláudia Ramos.

The volume addresses the issue of the relationship between Humanitarian Action and the local dimension, discussing the dialectic between the closest possible contact with populations and the global scale, along with its implications. The issue includes a series of articles on topics such as the 'ecumenical city,' refugee resettlement, and the long-term connections between humanitarian aid and development. The conclusion explores the possibility of a true 'glocal' humanitarianism, given the current political-legal framework of humanitarian action and its openness, or lack thereof, to change.
