On March 23rd and 24th of 2011, Harvard University held a roundtable discussion, “Earthquake Relief in Haiti: Inter-Organizational Perspectives and Lessons for the Future”. The common aspiration as humanitarian practitioners is to save lives and reduce human suffering, and they hoped the conversations begun during this meeting would help generate further research, coordination, and collaboration to support these goals.
