The role of international intergovernmental organizations in humanitarian crisis response: Case study
Božinovová, Anna ; Zemanová, Štěpánka (advisor) ; Burešová, Jana (referee)
This bachelor thesis focuses on the earthquake that hit Haiti in 2010 and examines the roles of the European Union and the United Nations, two key actors in providing humanitarian aid. The aim of the thesis is to establish whether there were any differences or similarities between the EU and the UN in conducting a major relief operation in Haiti. Another goal is to examine whether the mutual cooperation between the two organizations improved the post-earthquake environment on the island. This thesis is divided into three chapters. The first chapter explains the concepts and key principles of a humanitarian crisis and humanitarian aid. The second examines how the EU and the UN delivers humanitarian aid. The third chapter reconstructs chronologically the Haiti earthquake and its aftermath and analyses how effective the EU and UN were and whether it had alleviated the suffering of the Haitian people. The chapter will also critically examine the cooperation between the EU and the UN.
