The New Humanitarian

À propos

Some 170,000 people (mostly government, UN and NGO officials, journalists, and academics) visit our website every month, 40,000 subscribe to our email newsletters, and many more access our journalism through social media and re-publication by mainstream media. Our journalism has prompted public petitions, donations and charity telethons, new aid programmes, debates in parliaments, and changes in UN policy. Our reporting tackles many of the key issues of our time, from migration to climate change, from the war in Syria to a multi-billion-dollar aid industry in turmoil. In a recent audience survey, readers described TNH as unique in reporting on issues that many news agencies overlook; conducting exclusive investigations into the aid sector; reporting from undercovered locations; and offering expert analysis and opinions unavailable elsewhere. Our work is regularly cited and reproduced in academic journals and local and international media outlets, including the BBC and The New York Times. We are funded by a mix of governments and foundations.
