The Work of Humanitarian Organizations after the Earthquakes in Turkey

doi: 10.32563/hsz.2024.2.12

Abstract

Humanitarian aid can be seen as a political investment motivated by altruism or by economic benefits for the donor. Although the humanitarian sector has gained prominence in the management of contemporary conflicts, data on the diversity of organisations involved in humanitarian aid are scarce. Through a complex progression of world events and largely brought about in response to armed conflict, modern humanitarian aid is
provided by a multitude of organisations and actors. Natural disasters are phenomena which strike countries all around the world.
