Humanitarian Safety and Security: Obligations and responsibilities towards local implementing partners

Specifically, the paper addresses the core theme of responsability. It will address questions of who is responsible for the safe access to vulnerable populations, and will attempt to define what exactly responsability means in terms of safety and security within the international aid sector.
