Description
Official page of the MA Programme in Humanitarian Action at the University of Warsaw, part of the NOHA Joint Masters in International Humanitarian Action Since 2006 University of Warsaw is part of the Network on Humanitarian Action (NOHA), an international association of Universities that aims to enhance professionalism in the humanitarian sector.

The Programme provides students with a broad education and training in the area of international humanitarian action, in which critical thinking and research skills are emphasised. Moreover, the interdisciplinary Master’s degree combines theoretical and analytical knowledge and skills with a more hands-on approach. Courses are taught by a combination of in-house experts and field-experienced guest lecturers.
The Programme in HA has both specialised and interdisciplinary dimensions and offers education primarily in the area of political science and law, but also in management, anthropology and public health. Moreover, the curriculum offers several practical elements (i.e. simulations, obligatory internship) which enhances the graduates' prospects on the job market.

It was organized as part of the course prevention of human rights atrocities. The message of this place is to remember the horrors of the past to prevent them from happening in the future and challenge prejudice, discrimination and hatred today.
