EPISODE 17: How Honest is the Global Humanitarian Lottery? with Thomas Byrnes

I sat down with Mukesh Kapila for an hour to talk about things the humanitarian sector doesn't like to say out loud. Why the Global Humanitarian Overview no longer measures actual need. Why agencies can't share efficiency data with each other. Why the people at the coalface are almost never the ones who get the credit. Why donors hold all the power and prefer it that way. Mukesh pushed hard. The questions were uncomfortable. That was the point. One line I keep coming back to: We're not deciding who to save. We're deciding who to let die. And we're not honest about that. Listen on Spotify at: https://lnkd.in/dXYsH6zE Watch on YouTube: https://lnkd.in/d9gsdEcz
