Kristin Bergtora Sandvik

I am a Research Professor in Humanitarian Studies at PRIO, and the coordinator for the Humanitarianism research group. I have previously been the Director for the Norwegian Centre for Humanitarian Studies. My main affiliation is now with the University of Oslo, where I am a professor at the faculty of Law (Sociology of Law) and writing a legal sociology of humanitarianism. At PRIO, I lead the projects "Aid in Crisis? Rights-Based Approaches and Humanitarian Outcomes" and "Do No Harm: Ethical Humanitarian Innovation". I am also a member of PRIOs new project on Humanitarian Borders. I continue my work on technology, law and gender in the humanitarian space and beyond. This spring I will particularly be working on criminalization of humanitarianism.
