| dc.description | A symposium comprised mainly of African social and economic development thinkers, activists, and NGO practitioners assembled in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, to reflect on the meaning and impact of international humanitarian interventions in Africa in the post-independence period. The event was organized by United Support of Artists for Africa (the USA For Africa – Los Angeles) in collaboration with the UN Economic Commission on Africa (UNECA – Addis Ababa), Trust Africa (Dakar, Senegal), and Africa Humanitarian Action (AHA – Addis Ababa).
The aim was not only to reflect retrospectively on humanitarian responses on the continent but to examine what Africans have done and continue to do for themselves and to begin to shape a paradigm for the future. The Year 2010 marked twenty-five years since the international response to the great famine in Ethiopia and the Sahel. A fitting hiatus for the type of reflection that the Symposium facilitated. | en |
