Examining committee chair: Dr. Patricia DeweyThis study looks at the relationships between artists and international nongovernmental organizations in humanitarian work. Creative solutions to humanitarian needs and assistance have become increasingly important in world affairs since the end of the Cold War. The study addresses four main topical areas: the mobilization of artists, artists’ groups and international arts approaches; the role of international non-governmental organizations in crisis areas; models of peacebuilding and humanitarian work; and trends within Latin America. The study provides data to add to a growing and innovative body of research necessary for professionals in peacebuilding and arts fields as well as the non-governmental sector.2029 bytes2464910 bytestext/plainapplication/pdfen-USThesis
