Abstract

This chapter reviews the process of responding to socio-environmental disasters in places affected by high-intensity levels of conflict, and explores the essential features and challenges that this type of conflict poses for disaster response. Using the notions of humanitarian arena, legitimacy, and power relationships, the chapter presents the different strategies that aid and society actors (those for whom humanitarian aid action is part of their core function and those for whom is not) use to respond in these complex settings, contributing to the study of the nexus between social conflicts and socio-environmental disasters such as earthquakes, droughts, or hurricanes. This chapter makes an original contribution to the disaster response literature by reflecting on the utility of using high-intensity conflict scenarios as an analytical category, to inform better policies and practices on disaster response in these specific types of conflict.

1
The concept of socio-environmental disaster is addressed in more detail below, including an explanation of the relevance of stressing the social aspects of it. In this paper, the terms disaster and socio-environmental disaster will be used interchangeably.
 
2
This framework refers to an international document – the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction (2015–2030) – adopted by the UN state members. It seeks to achieve in the next fifteen year the following outcome: “The substantial reduction of disaster risk and losses in lives, livelihoods and health and in the economic, physical, social, cultural and environmental assets of persons, businesses, communities and countries” (United Nations 2015b: 12).
 
3
‘Policy documents and protocols’ refer to documents written by United Nations, NGOs, donors, and other aid organisations describing procedures, norms and/or standards. E.g. The Sphere Handbook, the International Humanitarian Law, security guidelines of some NGOs.
 
4
Grey literature is commonly unpublished and less formal information, usually defined as a ‘genre of literature [that] includes theses and dissertations, faculty research works, reports of meetings, conferences, seminars and workshops, students’ projects, in-house publications of associations and organizations… [forming a] body of materials that cannot be found easily through conventional channels such as publishers, but which is frequently original and usually recent’ (Okoroma 2011: 789). Every time that grey literature was used, the information was validated with peer-reviewed documents, official data and statistics, or via interviews and triangulation of the information presented.
 
5
In the present article, I am using the term disaster or socio-environmental disaster interchangeably.
 
6
Mentioned and reaffirmed in two interviews (AC1, AP1).
 
7
In this example, the Ebola epidemic outbreak is also considered a socio-natural disaster under the definition of a disaster presented before.
