To understand the underlying factors contributing to human insecurity, the challenges faced by local populations and organizations, and the type of humanitarian and political support required from international actors in the aftermath of the 2023 earthquake, the Malcolm H. Kerr Carnegie Middle East Center is organizing an event on September 19, at 5:00 PM Beirut Time.
