  Humanitarian Needs Are Growing. Can the World Keep Up?

  Aug 20, 202621 min

  More than 300 million people need emergency humanitarian support as some of the world's biggest donors scale back their aid. Mercy Corps CEO Tjada McKenna joins Leslie Vinjamuri to discuss who steps in when governments pull back, whether new donors, private capital, or advancing technology can help fill the gap, and why ending conflicts may be just as important as funding the response. With the old model of humanitarian aid under pressure, McKenna says "the world is not returning to what it was before." Deep Dish will be on a two-week break. New episodes return September 10, and we look forward to bringing you fresh conversations on the issues shaping our world. Thank you for your continued support of the podcast.
