Loai Naser: from inside Gaza

Hi everyone, and welcome back to Voices of Development.Today's episode is a little different.Over the past months, Gaza has remained at the centre of one of the most devastating humanitarian crises of our time. We hear the figures, we follow the political developments, and we see the images. But behind all of this, there are also humanitarian teams trying, every day, to continue doing their jobs while living through the same crisis as the people they support.So today, I wanted to hear directly from one of them.Loai Naser, Super-Novae's Country Director in Gaza, leads today's episode, speaking to us from inside the Gaza Strip.This is not a monologue about geopolitics, nor an attempt to explain the conflict. It is about what humanitarian work actually looks like today in Gaza: how needs have evolved, how aid organizations continue operating under extreme constraints, how incredibly difficult decisions around beneficiary selection are made when needs vastly exceed available resources, and what it means to manage a humanitarian response when you and your own team are living through the crisis yourselves.More than anything, I wanted this episode to create some space to listen to someone experiencing the reality behind the headlines every single day.Welcome to this episode by Loai Naser.Salomé,Host of Voices of DevelopmentSuper-NovaeReach out to us through LinkedIn, X, Instagram, or Facebook!Hosted on Ausha.
