Blumont (former International Relief & Development) Member

We are currently facing unprecedented global relief and development challenges. Conflicts are driving historic numbers of refugees and internally displaced persons to the brink, climate change is accelerating the need for improved infrastructure and innovative resource management, and there is an absolute requirement for creative thinking around community resilience and finding local solutions to emerging global problems. Fortunately, we also live in an age of tremendous advancement in science and technology, and there is a growing need to translate those gains into appropriate relief and development solutions.
