0,03 % ! Pour une transformation du mouvement humanitaire international , English version. This book examines the humanitarian movement, its history, its actors, the difficulties that are part and parcel of its deployment in complex environments, as well as the international relations in which it is the “David” alongside the “Goliath” states facing it. The author aims to analyse how the nature of today’s wars and the actors in them differ from those seen by Henry Dunant, founder of the International Red Cross, and from those that prevailed in 1945 when the United Nations was created. Once the challenges impeding the major NGOs’ ability to intervene in armed conflict zones have been highlighted, this book will suggest ways the situation might be transformed so that the main pitfalls can be avoided, and humanitarians can continue their crucial work in a safe and ethical manner. ABOUT THE AUTHOR Pierre Micheletti is a doctor and a graduate of the École des hautes études en santé publique (prestigious school of public health). He first worked abroad in 1985. In 1987, he joined Médecins du Monde as head of mission in Guatemala. He was appointed director of programmes in 1996 and was elected president in 2006, a position he held until 2009. Since 2009, he has been teaching at the Grenoble Institute of Political Studies, where he co-directs the MA in International Organisations and Policy, and at the Grenoble medical school, where he set up and directs the Health-Solidarity-Security Diploma. In 2014, he joined the board of directors of Action contre la Faim, of which he was elected president in 2019. He has written numerous articles for the French media, in particular as a contributor to Le Monde diplomatique.
