might help save the world.</p> <p><a href="https://www.readforaction.org/"><strong>Read for Action</strong></a>, created by the Frank Batten School of Leadership and Public Policy’s Humanitarian Collaborative, kicked off earlier this month alongside the United Nations’ annual climate change meeting, known as COP27, which convened this year in Sharm el-Sheik, Egypt.</p> <p>The free online book club, which anyone can join, focuses on recent novels whose characters struggle with realistic, geography-spanning humanitarian crises.</p> <p>The club’s primary architects – Batten School professor Kirsten Gelsdorf and Humanitarian Collaborative practitioner fellow Adrienne Ghaly – are calling readers to the social media platform <a href="https://discord.com/invite/9gYYyBbPYw"><strong>Discord</strong></a> to discuss the books.</p> <p>There, participants can learn about, and act upon, ways to help with similar problems in the real world.</p> <p>“What makes this book club unique is that readers connect not only with other readers, but with authors, literary scholars, researchers and humanitarian experts from around the world,” Ghaly said.</p> <p>The club is built on the premise that current humanitarian advocacy often relies on the public’s reaction to news. But news feeds can just as easily lead to doom-scrolling, hopelessness and disengagement.  </p> <p>Reading fiction, however, requires longer and deeper reflection on complex characters and contexts. The organizers say that can help the reader ask important questions that may lead to social engagement – questions that Read for Action members can immediately discuss with humanitarian policy practitioners and authors.</p> <p>“The idea for the book club arose from Kirsten’s research studying the effectiveness of humanitarian advocacy and my research on the efficacy of fiction for engagement and social action,” Ghaly said. “I used my class on the novel and the refugee crisis as a case study. The novels immersed students in the lives of characters who were responding to complex situations. Students were reading and discussing collaboratively, which created a real sense of community and empowerment to act.”</p> <p>Ghaly and Gelsdorf said they are confident the engagement they documented at the classroom level can extrapolate to a global audience.</p> <p>The project is funded by UVA’s Environmental Resilience Institute, with support from the Institute for the Humanities and Global Cultures, Environmental Humanities, and Brown College.</p> <p>The first book the club will discuss is “The Displacements” by UVA’s Bruce Holsinger, an English professor who has written several widely read novels.</p> <p>"The Displacements" will be read through Dec. 7, with a livestreamed conversation noon to 1:15 p.m. that day. The Holsinger book will be followed by “Exit West” by Moshin Hamid, from Jan. 15 to Feb. 15, and “How Beautiful We Were,” by Imbolo Mbue, from Feb. 20 to March 20.</p> <p>“The Displacements” imagines the aftermath of this country’s first Category 6 hurricane, focusing on the impact it has on a wealthy Miami family forced to relocate to a federal encampment.</p> <p>“I’m eager to be part of these new conversations around fiction and humanitarian action, and I am excited to see how the various constituencies involved in Read for Action engage the important questions at the center of the project,” Holsinger said.</p></div> <!-- END OUTPUT from 'themes/contrib/radix/templates/field/field.html.twig' --> </div> <div class="col-sm-12 cta-wrapper"> <!-- THEME DEBUG --> <!-- THEME HOOK:

pandemic.</em></figcaption></figure><!-- END OUTPUT from 'themes/contrib/radix/templates/field/filter-caption.html.twig' --><p><span><span>In 2002, Lucy Bassett, joined the Peace Corps and served for two years in Climentoro, Guatemala, a village at an elevation of roughly 10,000 feet. The first friends she made in the indigenous K’iche’ community were children. “When you’re new somewhere, it’s always really easy, at least for me, to connect with kids first,” she said. “They don’t care if your language is perfect, as long as you play and interact.”</span></span></p> <p><span><span>Bassett, today an associate professor of practice of public policy at the Frank Batten School of Leadership and Public Policy, said that in Guatemala, she quickly noticed that many of the children she met had stunted growth from chronic malnutrition. She worked with indigenous women’s groups there to promote child nutrition and learning. When Bassett returned to the village for a visit several years after her Peace Corps stint had ended, many of the girls she had befriended before were married with children of their own. </span></span></p> <p><span><span>Influenced by her experiences, Bassett has devoted her career to improving the lives of poor and marginalized children, especially in terms of improving access to education, nutrition, and social protection services. “The work I do now [at UVA] always brings me back to both those babies and the teen girls that I knew [in Guatemala],” she said.</span></span></p> <p><span><span>After working as a researcher for the International Food Policy Research Institute, a program evaluator at UNICEF in India, and as an Education and Social Protection Specialist at the World Bank, among other positions, she brought her experience to Batten in 2018, where she teaches courses on topics like global early childhood development and children in crisis at the U.S./Mexico border. </span></span></p> <p><span><span>Her latest research focuses on an issue that has been exacerbated by the COVID pandemic  –– <span><span>adolescent mothers and young children. </span></span><span><span>According to the World Health Organization, </span></span><span>approximately 12 million girls between the ages of 15-19<strong> </strong><span>give birth each year.</span> During the <span>during the 2020 COVID-19 lockdown, teen pregnancies </span></span><span><span>spiked</span></span> in <a href="https://obgyn.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1002/ijgo.14144"><strong><span>Africa</span></strong></a><span><span>, </span></span><a href="https://www.brookings.edu/events/ensuring-young-mothers-return-remain-and-learn-in-school/"><strong><span>South Asia, Latin America</span></strong></a><span><span>, and elsewhere, due, in part, to school closures, joblessness, an increase in gender and sexual violence, and a decrease in access to health services, again according to </span></span><a href="https://www.afro.who.int/countries/congo/news/covid-19-takes-heavy-toll-womens-health"><strong><span>WHO</span></strong></a><span><span>.</span></span></span></span></p> <p><span><span>Bassett began discussing this troubling data with international colleagues, homing in on how to improve outcomes for not only the babies of teen mothers, but also for the young mothers themselves. “For those of us working on early childhood issues, there’s always a question of [helping] not just the kid, but the family — the parents and the mom,” Bassett said. “There’s more and more attention being paid to the caregiver in the field and the challenges that those caregivers face and the fact that kids can only grow and develop optimally if the people taking care of them are in good shape and are supported.”</span></span></p> <!-- THEME DEBUG --> <!-- THEME HOOK: 'filter_caption' --> <!-- BEGIN OUTPUT from 'themes/contrib/radix/templates/field/filter-caption.html.twig' --> <figure class="figure align-center"><img alt="Bassett UVA Humanitarian Collaborative" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="35314ca2-faee-4b2f-bee4-cf23a6844db2" src="/sites/default/files/inline-images/Bassett%20New%20Cooperation%20Teen%20Motherhood%20%281%29_0.JPG" class="figure-img img-fluid" width="1600" height="1200" loading="lazy" /><figcaption class="figure-caption"><em>The workshop, held in Minneapolis, convened research teams from UVA and New York University, as well as universities in Zambia, Malawi, Vietnam, India, Bangladesh, and Canada.</em></figcaption></figure><!-- END OUTPUT from 'themes/contrib/radix/templates/field/filter-caption.html.twig' --><p><span><span><strong>Workshop Brings Global Researchers Together</strong></span></span></p> <p><span><span>In response to these conversations, Bassett <span><span>organized a workshop focused on adolescent mothers and young children </span></span>through the <a href="https://humanitariancollaborative.com/"><strong><span>UVA Humanitarian Collaborative</span></strong></a><span><span>, one of the research centers at the Batten School of which Bassett is co-Director</span></span><span><span>. </span></span><span>The workshop convened research <span>teams from UVA and New York University, as well as universities in Zambia, Malawi, Vietnam, India, </span>Bangladesh,<span> and Canada. Bassett and Batten alumnae </span>Maya Ewart (MPP ’22), planned the workshop, which was held at the <span>Comparative and International Education Society conference in Minneapolis in late April. </span></span></span></span></p> <p><span><span><span><span>Bassett, a native Minnesotan, said it happened to be snowing in Minneapolis when the conference began, and her heart swelled as she watched fellow researchers arrive from Africa and South Asia wearing big coats in the cold weather. “</span></span><span>They were ready for the snow and the collaboration<span>,” she said. “They were ready for it all.” For most of the researchers, it was the first time they had been able to collaborate in person since the start of the pandemic. </span></span></span></span></p> <p><span><span><span>“<span>Although we have been collaborating for the last eight months, I did not feel a strong connection with other partners until I met all of them physically,” said Ashraf Haq</span>, <span>an adjunct faculty member at North South University</span> in Dhaka, Bangladesh, who attended the workshop in Minneapolis. “<span>I believe ideas and thought processes have an emotional aspect that is hard to touch in remote collaboration. In those two days, I had a chance to mingle with each of our partners jointly as well as separately, formally as well as socially. This helped me to understand their culture and its influence on their thought process better and helped me connect my thinking and ideas with theirs.”</span></span></span></span></p> <p><span><span>In addition to collaborative meetings, the researchers also showcased their ideas through a presentation at the conference, chaired by Bassett. Panelists discussed <span>a study on adolescent girls displaced by conflict and currently living in South Sudan and Northern Iraq; a longitudinal study of pregnant women living in the Rohingya refugee camps of Cox’s Bazar, Bangladesh</span><span><span>; and </span></span>research on policies, programs, and services sensitive to the needs and experiences of adolescent mothers<span><span> in </span></span>Sub-Saharan Africa. Ewart said that <span><span>the presentation “highlighted research gaps to further investigate, for example, how do risk and resilience vary across cultural contexts, and how can we effectively incorporate men, boys, and fathers into prevention and support programming?”</span></span></span></span></p></div> <!-- END OUTPUT from 'themes/contrib/radix/templates/field/field.html.twig' --> </div> <div class="col-sm-12 cta-wrapper"> </div> </div> </div> <!-- END OUTPUT from 'themes/custom/radix_batten/templates/paragraph/paragraph--headline-paragraph-centered.html.twig' --> </div> <div class="field--item wrapper-main-content row pull-quote" data-mh="main-content-wrapper"> <!-- THEME DEBUG --> <!-- THEME HOOK: 'paragraph' --> <!-- FILE NAME SUGGESTIONS: * paragraph--pull-quote--default.html.twig x paragraph--pull-quote.html.twig * paragraph--default.html.twig * paragraph.html.twig --> <!-- BEGIN OUTPUT from 'themes/custom/radix_batten/templates/paragraph/paragraph--pull-quote.html.twig' --> <div class="paragraph paragraph--type--pull-quote paragraph--view-mode--default col-sm-12"> <div class="row"> <div class="col-sm-12 icon-wrapper"> <img src="/themes/custom/radix_batten/assets/images/double_quote.png" class="quote-image" alt=""> </div> <div class="col-sm-12 quote-wrapper"> <!-- THEME DEBUG --> <!-- THEME HOOK: 'field' --> <!-- FILE NAME SUGGESTIONS: * field--paragraph--field-quote--pull-quote.html.twig * field--paragraph--field-quote.html.twig * field--paragraph--pull-quote.html.twig * field--field-quote.html.twig * field--text-long.html.twig x field.html.twig --> <!-- BEGIN OUTPUT from 'themes/contrib/radix/templates/field/field.html.twig' --> <div class="pull-quote__field-quote"><p><span><span>For those of us working on early childhood issues, there’s always a question of [helping] not just the kid, but the family — the parents and the mom.</span></span></p></div> <!-- END OUTPUT from 'themes/contrib/radix/templates/field/field.html.twig' --> </div> <div class="col-sm-12 col-md-8 offset-md-2 attribution-wrapper"> <span class="originator-name"> <!-- THEME DEBUG --> <!-- THEME HOOK: 'field' --> <!-- FILE NAME SUGGESTIONS: * field--paragraph--field-originator-name--pull-quote.html.twig * field--paragraph--field-originator-name.html.twig * field--paragraph--pull-quote.html.twig * field--field-originator-name.html.twig * field--string.html.twig x field.html.twig --> <!-- BEGIN OUTPUT from 'themes/contrib/radix/templates/field/field.html.twig' --> <div class="pull-quote__field-originator-name">Lucy Bassett</div> <!-- END OUTPUT from 'themes/contrib/radix/templates/field/field.html.twig' --> </span> <span class="dot-wrapper"> <i class="fa fas fa-circle"></i> </span> <span class="originator-title"> <!-- THEME DEBUG --> <!-- THEME HOOK: 'field' --> <!-- FILE NAME SUGGESTIONS: * field--paragraph--field-originator-title--pull-quote.html.twig * field--paragraph--field-originator-title.html.twig * field--paragraph--pull-quote.html.twig * field--field-originator-title.html.twig * field--string.html.twig x field.html.twig --> <!-- BEGIN OUTPUT from 'themes/contrib/radix/templates/field/field.html.twig' --> <div class="pull-quote__field-originator-title">Associate Professor of Practice of Public Policy</div> <!-- END OUTPUT from 'themes/contrib/radix/templates/field/field.html.twig' --> </span> </div> </div> </div> <!-- END OUTPUT from 'themes/custom/radix_batten/templates/paragraph/paragraph--pull-quote.html.twig' --> </div> <div class="field--item wrapper-main-content row headline-paragraph-centered" data-mh="main-content-wrapper"> <!-- THEME DEBUG --> <!-- THEME HOOK: 'paragraph' --> <!-- FILE NAME SUGGESTIONS: * paragraph--headline-paragraph-centered--default.html.twig x paragraph--headline-paragraph-centered.html.twig * paragraph--default.html.twig * paragraph.html.twig --> <!-- BEGIN OUTPUT from 'themes/custom/radix_batten/templates/paragraph/paragraph--headline-paragraph-centered.html.twig' --> <div class="paragraph paragraph--type--headline-paragraph-centered paragraph--view-mode--default col-sm-12"> <div class="row"> <div class="col-sm-12 content-wrapper"> <!-- THEME DEBUG --> <!-- THEME HOOK: 'field' --> <!-- FILE NAME SUGGESTIONS: * field--paragraph--field-description--headline-paragraph-centered.html.twig * field--paragraph--field-description.html.twig * field--paragraph--headline-paragraph-centered.html.twig * field--field-description.html.twig * field--text-long.html.twig x field.html.twig --> <!-- BEGIN OUTPUT from 'themes/contrib/radix/templates/field/field.html.twig' --> <div class="headline-paragraph-centered__field-description"><p><span><span><strong><span><span>What Can Be Done, and What Comes Next?</span></span></strong></span></span></p> <p><span><span>Post-conference, the researchers are continuing with their studies in various parts of the world, and, as a team, looking at the issue of adolescent mothers and children with, as Bassett calls it, “a two-generation approach. How can we support babies and their young mothers at the same time?” Interventions include helping teen girls go back to school, as well as helping them get childcare and job training. Bassett also stressed the importance of giving young mothers assistance with parental training. “How do we help them to understand what their kids need and how they can support them and engage?” she said. Finally, researchers are looking into the role of adolescent fathers. “How can the teen dads learn what it means to be a parent who helps to raise a healthy, well-developing child?” Bassett said. “Once [young fathers] engage with the babies, it gives them this positive feedback cycle.”</span></span></p> <p><span><span>Bassett said one of the biggest takeaways from the Minneapolis workshop was the notion that “each approach has to be really grounded in the cultural beliefs, especially around marriage and childbearing.” While the group of researchers certainly aims to prevent child marriage and adolescent pregnancy, it would be naïve, Bassett said, to assume a prevention-only approach can address some of the more nuanced issues. </span></span></p> <p><span><span>“For some adolescent mothers, especially in these crisis contexts, having a child brought them a sense of purpose and value in a world that makes no sense and is scary and overwhelming. … We don’t want to promote young pregnancy, but to build on the things that make [teen mothers] feel good or strong or positive and use that as a way to support them.” </span></span></p> <p><span><span>Ewart will be a coauthor on a paper Bassett is writing on young mothers in about South Sudan and northern Iraq. </span></span></p> <p><span><span><span><span>“Professor Bassett and her research heightened my passion for early childhood development and sparked my interest in dual-generation research,” Ewart stated. “I am eager to further delve into the impact of family and community support on adolescent mothers. Our research also highlighted the importance of recognizing and researching regional and cultural differences ... There is no one-size-fits-all experience for adolescent mothers or their children.”</span></span></span></span></p></div> <!-- END OUTPUT from 'themes/contrib/radix/templates/field/field.html.twig'

focus in early year education planning.  The Government is showing a strong commitment to early childhood education and positioning itself to continue to make this a priority for the country. <a

of 2021, around 1.57 million students were enrolled in preprimary education (PPE) in around 65,000 government primary schools.  </a>The Government now intends to pilot an additional year of PPE for four-year-olds and then expand the program countrywide as envisioned in the National Education Policy 2010.</p> <p><a

order to successfully implement this vision of high-quality PPE, teachers and school practitioners and leaders will need specialized training and support.  </a>A 2021 survey of 200 PPE teachers and 200 headteachers (the equivalent of principals) across 300 public schools sought to understand educators’ perceptions on PPE and identify professional development priorities. Results showed that while almost all PPE teachers participated in the government’s 15-day induction training, there were notable gaps in their sense of preparedness to teach PPE. And for headteachers, very few (12.5 percent) received any training at all on PPE or early childhood education. When asked whether they wanted more training opportunities, nearly all teachers and headteachers agreed. Specific topics of interest included behavior management; characteristics of young children/how young children learn; socio-emotional learning; and mental health.</p> <p><strong>Mindsets play a role</strong></p> <p><a href="https://twitter.com/intent/tweet?text=While+expertise+in+technical+areas+is+important%2C+the+mindsets+of+these+educators+also+play+a+critical+role+in+how+they+use+their+knowledge+and+create+a+learning+environment+for+young+children.+&amp;url=https://blogs.worldbank.org/endpovertyinsouthasia/enhancing-educators-skills-quality-preprimary-education-bangladesh?CID=WBW_AL_BlogNotification_EN_EXT/?cid=SHR_BlogSiteTweetable_EN_EXT&amp;via=worldbank">While expertise in technical areas is important, the mindsets of these educators also play a critical role in how they use their knowledge and create a learning environment for young children.  </a>The study found that teachers and headteachers have a conventional perspective, often viewing PPE predominantly as a place to provide basic education to children rather than an opportunity for holistic development in the early years. About half of the teachers and headteachers responded that the focus in PPE is largely on academic learning. <a

The medal honors individuals whose work exemplifies Thomas Jefferson’s commitment to the duty and virtue of public service, and is the University’s highest external honor.</p> <p>Westin’s leadership has extended to media, government and the nonprofit sector. As president of Sesame Workshop, the nonprofit educational organization behind the longtime children’s show, “Sesame Street,” Westin leads efforts to reach children and families around the world with critical early education through mass media and targeted initiatives.</p> <p>She serves as Sesame Workshop’s chief mission ambassador, raising awareness, developing strategic partnerships and cultivating philanthropic support to further the organization’s mission to help children everywhere grow smarter, stronger and kinder.</p> <p>“We are honored to recognize Ms. Westin with this year’s Medal in Citizen Leadership for her unwavering commitment to public service and improving the lives of others,” said Ian Solomon, dean of UVA’s Frank Batten School of Leadership and Public Policy, which selects the Citizen Leadership Medalist. “Under her leadership, Sesame Workshop is helping children and families navigate the unprecedented disruption of the COVID-19 pandemic, fostering empathy and honest conversations about race and racism, and delivering critical early childhood support to millions of children affected by conflict and crisis.</p> <p>“Through this work and so much more, Ms. Westin embodies the true meaning of citizen leadership.”</p> <p>Westin has been named a “Leading Global Thinker” by Foreign Policy Magazine in 2016 and one of Fast Company’s “100 Most Creative People in Business” in 2017. She also was recognized with the Smithsonian’s 2017 “American Ingenuity Award.” A staunch advocate for addressing children’s needs, she regularly appears at forums and in major media outlets to highlight the value of investing in early childhood development, especially for the most vulnerable children.</p> <p>Prior to her work with Sesame Workshop, Westin was assistant to the president for public liaison and intergovernmental affairs for President George H.W. Bush and assistant secretary for public affairs at the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. She also held senior positions at the ABC Television Network and U.S. News &amp; World Report. Westin earned her bachelor’s degree in communications from UVA and holds an honorary doctorate from Concordia College in New York.</p> <p>Westin will be the featured keynote speaker at Monticello’s <a href="http://monticello.org/foundersday"><strong>commemoration of Jefferson’s 279th birthday on April 13</strong></a> at 10 a.m. on the West Lawn of Monticello.</p> <p>The Thomas Jefferson Foundation Medals – sponsored jointly by UVA and the Thomas Jefferson Foundation, the nonprofit organization that owns and operates Monticello – are awarded each year to recognize the achievements of those who embrace endeavors in which Jefferson excelled and held in high regard.</p> <p>(Read <a href="https://majorevents.virginia.edu/founders-day-2021#:~:text=Thomas%20Jefferson's%20birthday%2C%20April%2013,is%20known%20as%20Founder's%20Day."><strong>further details about all Founder’s Day events.</strong></a>)</p> <p>Westin joins a list of renowned recipients of the Medal in Citizen Leadership, including Marian Wright Edelman, founder and president of the Children’s Defense Fund; the late civil rights leader and U.S. Rep. John Lewis; and Rockefeller Foundation president Rajiv Shah.</p> <p>The Medal in Citizen Leadership is one of three medals to be presented this year. <a

continue to turn to Batten Professor Kirsten Gelsdorf for insight into the humanitarian side of the crisis. Gelsdorf, who is also UVA’s director of global humanitarian policy, has 20 years of experience working in the humanitarian sector, most recently serving as chief of the policy analysis and innovation section at the United Nations Office of Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs. This fall, she will teach LPPS: 3295 Global Humanitarian Crises Response, which is open to all UVA undergraduates. </span></span></span></span></span></span></span></p> <p><span><span><span><span><span><span><span>In <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/2022/03/17/humanitarian-corridors-ukraine-explained/">an article for The Washington Post</a>, Gelsdorf spoke about the history of humanitarian corridors, how such corridors are being used in Ukraine and why they should be one piece of a comprehensive civilian-protection strategy. “A risk with them is that sometimes they’re used as a diplomatic bargaining chip, rather than a way to implement all the obligations under international humanitarian law,” Gelsdorf said. “They need to be done in collaboration with negotiating for wider protection of civilians and access to populations in need.”</span></span></span></span></span></span></span></p> <p><span><span><span><span><span><span><span>Gelsdorf was also <a href="https://www.marketplace.org/2022/03/10/among-the-aid-ukrainian-refugees-can-expect-cold-hard-cash/">interviewed for NPR’s Marketplace</a> in a segment about cash assistance as a form of humanitarian aid with a focus on Ukraine. She provided background information on the importance of cash transfers in emergency contexts and the planned scale of these interventions in Ukraine’s humanitarian response. Gelsdorf also noted that humanitarian aid organizations have utilized cash aid for over a century. “Clara Barton used it. She was the founder of the American Red Cross. She used cash relief as part of the Franco-Prussian War response in 1870.”</span></span></span></span></span></span></span></p> <p><span><span><span><span><span><span><span>In addition to national media appearances, Gelsdorf was featured by <a href="https://news.virginia.edu/content/humanitarian-crisis-ukraine-and-beyond-and-how-you-can-help">UVA Today in an article</a> about the scale of the crisis in Ukraine and how people outside the country can help.</span></span></span></span></span></span></span></p></div> <!-- END OUTPUT from 'themes/contrib/radix/templates/field/field.html.twig'

They can be roads where civilians can travel, but planes are not permitted to fly overhead. They sometimes connect people from one point to another within a country, or across country borders. They generally exist for a specific time period, extending from mere hours to months.</p> <p>Warring parties agree to set up and respect these corridors for strictly humanitarian – not political – purposes. Third parties, like the United Nations, or another country involved in the conflict, may also play a role in establishing humanitarian corridors.</p> <p>But in order for humanitarian corridors to succeed in keeping people safe and healthy, they need to be accompanied by cease-fires, security guarantees and diplomatic trade-offs.</p> <p>This requires confidence that all parties to a conflict will not target civilians or aid workers traveling these paths. But, as in the current Ukraine war, this doesn’t always happen. Despite Russia’s promises to set up humanitarian corridors, it is targeting and killing civilians trying to leave Ukraine or leave besieged cities.</p> <p>Because of this, emergency relief experts like ourselves sometimes view humanitarian corridors <a href="https://www.thenewhumanitarian.org/report/95101/briefing-why-humanitarians-wary-%E2%80%9Chumanitarian-corridors%E2%80%9D">with great caution</a>. We see them not as the only choice, but as part of broader efforts to help civilians caught in a crisis.</p> <h4>Where humanitarian corridors have been used</h4> <p>Humanitarian corridors were <a href="https://brill.com/view/book/edcoll/9789004431140/BP000044.xml">used</a> in World War II, when <a href="https://www.bbc.co.uk/newsround/46877532">children were evacuated from Nazi-controlled territory</a> by trains to the United Kingdom.</p> <p>More than 40 years later, the U.N. helped set up “corridors of tranquility” during the <a href="https://securelivelihoods.org/wp-content/uploads/Reviewing-key-lessons-from-Operation-Lifeline-Sudan-and-past-humanitarian-operations-in-South-Sudan.pdf">second Sudanese Civil War</a>. These corridors helped the U.N. transport essential supplies to civilians.</p> <p>The U.N. <a href="https://www.unhcr.org/3ae6a0c58.pdf">first mandated peacekeeper-controlled humanitarian corridors</a> during the Bosnian War between 1992 and 1994, to provide civilians in Sarajevo with lifesaving supplies.</p> <p>The U.N. also used its peacekeepers to protect <a href="https://foreignpolicy.com/2017/03/30/there-are-no-real-safe-zones-and-there-never-have-been-syria-iraq-bosnia-rwanda/">“safe areas” for civilians</a> within Bosnia. But these areas failed to keep people safe when the Bosnian Serb army <a href="https://www.ushmm.org/genocide-prevention/countries/bosnia-herzegovina/srebrenica/background/safe-area">murdered and raped thousands of non-Serb</a>, Muslim women inside those areas.</p> <p>Sometimes, warring parties do not agree to set up humanitarian corridors.</p> <p>Humanitarian organizations requested civilian corridors in <a href="https://www.icrc.org/en/doc/resources/documents/interview/5l9jzb.htm">Iraq</a> in 2003 to reach civilians. They again asked Iraq and the Islamic State to establish corridors <a href="https://www.iom.int/news/iom-calls-humanitarian-corridors-access-displaced-iraq">in 2014</a>. But humanitarian corridors were not established during those conflicts.</p> <!-- THEME DEBUG --> <!-- THEME HOOK: 'filter_caption' --> <!-- BEGIN OUTPUT from 'themes/contrib/radix/templates/field/filter-caption.html.twig' --> <figure class="figure align-center"><img alt="Refugees from the Bosnian ‘safe area’ set up by the U.N. are pictured at a refugee camp in July 1995.

But Russia’s announcement did not ensure people’s safety.</p> <p>Russia and close ally Belarus offered Ukrainians another safe <a href="https://www.reuters.com/markets/asia/top-wrap-1-ukrainians-trapped-besieged-city-fighting-blocks-evacuation-efforts-2022-03-07/">escape route on March 7, 2022</a>. Under this plan, people from Kyiv and Kharkiv, Ukraine’s second-largest city, could cross to Belarus or Russia. A spokesperson for Zelenskyy said the Russian proposal, which Ukraine rejected, was “completely immoral.”</p> <p>Zelenskyy has also questioned whether humanitarian corridors actually exist in Ukraine. When international relief workers tried to leave Mariupol along the agreed-upon route, alongside civilians, on March 6, 2022, they soon realized “the road indicated to them was actually mined,” Dominik Stillhart, director of operations for the International Committee of the Red Cross, <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/land-mines-proposed-ukraine-evacuations-humanitarian-corridor-red-cross-2022-3">told the BBC.</a></p> <p>Zelenskyy has continued to <a href="https://www.business-standard.com/article/international/zelenskyy-talks-with-eu-chief-von-der-leyen-about-humanitarian-corridors-122031000026_1.html">press for secure humanitarian corridors</a>.</p> <p>“There was a lot of talk about humanitarian corridors,” Zelenskyy <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/land-mines-proposed-ukraine-evacuations-humanitarian-corridor-red-cross-2022-3">said in a March 6 video address</a>. “There were talks every day about the opportunity for people to leave the cities where Russians came. But there are no humanitarian corridors. Instead of humanitarian corridors, they can only make bloody ones.”</p> <p>Russia again <a href="https://reliefweb.int/report/ukraine/ukraine-humanitarian-impact-situation-report-300-pm-eet-9-march-2022">agreed to six humanitarian safe passage routes</a> on March 9, 2022. But Russia has continued to <a href="https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/russia-has-switched-tactics-targeting-civilians-ukraine-adviser-says-2022-03-10/">target civilians as they leave Ukraine</a>.</p> <p>Meanwhile fighting in Ukraine continues, and Ukrainian civilian deaths – <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2022/03/10/russia-invasion-killed-549-civilians-in-ukraine-united-nations-says.html">topping at least 549, including 41 children</a> – rise each day.</p> <h4>Russia’s bad record</h4> <p>Some experts say that Russia’s <a href="https://www.europeanleadershipnetwork.org/commentary/approach-with-caution-lessons-for-ukraine-from-the-russian-approach-to-ceasefires-and-humanitarian-access-in-syria/">involvement in the Syrian conflict could offer a window</a> into its Ukraine war strategy.</p> <p>Russia offered humanitarian corridors for civilians to leave Ghouta, Syria, in 2018, amid heavy fighting. But the different conflict parties, including the Syrian government and various domestic opposition groups, did not jointly agree to these corridors, and international organizations like the U.N. did not monitor them. Few civilians actually traveled those routes.</p> <p>Russia also has a history of <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2019/12/29/world/middleeast/united-nations-syria-russia.html">targeting and attacking</a> health care and other civilian facilities in Syria, for example, even after humanitarian organizations announced the location of these places and passageways.</p> <!-- THEME DEBUG --> <!-- THEME HOOK: 'filter_caption' --> <!-- BEGIN OUTPUT from 'themes/contrib/radix/templates/field/filter-caption.html.twig' --> <figure class="figure align-center"><img alt="A humanitarian corridor for civilians leaving the Rukban refugee camp in Syria is shown on Feb. 23, 2019.
