Famine and Farce: the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation
How have humanitarian organizations managed to deliver life-saving aid to millions of Gazans despite the dangerous and difficult conditions since Oct 7? Despite their success, why have the US and Israel set up an alternative mechanism for distributing aid under the auspices of the secretive Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF)? What principles guide the field of humanitarian relief, and how does the existing UN-backed mechanism compare with the practices of the GHF? Abby Maxman, President and CEO of Oxfam America, joined the show this week to answer some of these questions and call on the world to allow her colleagues to do what they do best: deliver life-saving food, water, and aid to the people of Gaza as the UN announces that the entire population of the enclave is now at risk of famine.
