Expertise Database

Expertise Map

Mercy Corps affiliates

IHSA has developed this directory in order to connect and visualize the many individuals active in humanitarian studies. Currently, the directory contains over 300 individuals active in the humanitarian field. This database provides an overview of these experts and, if they are affiliated with an institution, links that expert to that institution’s information in the associated IHSA database on humanitarian organisations.

You can find people by using the filters on the top. You can search by country, type of expertise, topic of expertise and also see if someone is a national from a specific country. Showcasing your expertise in the database is completely free of charge. Add your expertise now by creating an account on the IHSA website. See the complete list of experts below map.

Special attention is paid to our colleagues in the Global South as they often struggle to gain visibility and secure direct funding from donors, and yet provide unique insights. This database aims to address this issue by providing a directory that makes their research more visible. Through this directory, IHSA hopes to encourage donors, international research teams, and commissioners of research to engage local humanitarian researchers by helping them find experts from a country of interest.

This project was made possible by our partners from Network for Empowered Aid Response (NEAR) and Tufts University.
