The 2025 Humanitarian Leadership Conference focuses on the very human element of leadership: of who takes risks and how they can make real, positive change. Disrupting the usual discussions and creating space for emerging and insightful analysis, the 2025 Humanitarian Leadership Conference will explore the multiple aspects and impacts of the polycrisis as well as the multi-faceted nature and influence of transformative leadership. It will showcase the increasing reality of diverse leadership and its capacity to navigate and affect positive change in crises around the world.
The 2025 HLC will take place from April 8-9, in Doha, Qatar, with a livestream option for remote delegates. The two-day in-person and online programme features:
- Keynote presentations from Tammam Aladout, CEO of The New Humanitarian, and Hibek Kalfan, Executive Director of NEAR
- Plenary panel discussions exploring key themes including resistance humanitarianism and partnerships for transformational change
- Engaging discussions, presentations and interactive sessions with our partners from #PledgeforChange2030
- Interactive workshops and poster displays for in-person guests
- A dedicated online stream for our virtual participants including online-only workshops
The 2025 HLC is presented by the Centre for Humanitarian Leadership in partnership with the Center for Conflict and Humanitarian Studies.
