Abstract
In this chapter, I focus on the importance of the human impact of humanitarian crises. This chapter recalls the fact that these conflicts have severe implications on humans, and seeks to extricate the discussion from international politics. I focus on the significance of a nuanced approach to working with refugees. It reflects on the notion of exile, gender and narrative of persecutions.
