| cases from the INSEAD Humanitarian Research Group |
The multifaceted cases from the INSEAD Humanitarian Research Group offer a cross-disciplinary and flexible resource for teaching different management disciplines to students at any level. Some cases are based on recent disasters that made the global headlines, while others focus on fundamental issues of disaster planning and response, such as transport, funding or distribution of on-line information. They cover issues as diverse as supply chain management, strategy, political science, finance, organisational behaviour, negotiations, ethics and marketing. This project was profiled in issue 40 of ECCHO, click to read the article.
