Facing the complexity of contemporary crises, humanitarian workers have to develop a variety of skills and competences to cope with situations of armed conflict, epidemics, "natural" catastrophes and social exclusion.

To respond to these needs, the Geneva Center for Education and Research in Humanitarian Action (CERAH) offers several accredited courses, drawing on Geneva's network of international institutions and non-governmental organisations.

Grants are available for students from non-OCDE countries plus Mexico and Chile.
