Summary

Professor David Chandler describes traditional humanitarianism as a problematic aid framework, due to its patronizing, short-term emphasis. Digital humanitarianism, in contrast, provides technological tools to troubled populations, allowing them the independence to find their own culturally appropriate solutions.
