Manage episode 337459851 series 3381405
Conflict-ridden areas are at the focus of peace research in academia. But how does it feel to be on the ground? In this episode, Jamie LeSueur -Head of Emergency Operations at the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC) and Uppsala University Alumnus of the Year (2020)- shares some insights on his daily work as a practitioner and talks about how his time in Uppsala has been affecting his decisions at IFRC. As a master's graduate from the Department of Peace and Conflict Research, LeSueur emphasizes that a degree in this field provides "a taste of what reality looks like" and being on the ground may provide even more.
