Posted on 15th June 2026 by NRAC Administrator

Booking is now open for the ninth NRAC online event on Thursday 9 July 2026 - the session will be from 9:30am to 12:45pm (UK time).

We are delighted to announced Crystal Whitaker as our first speaker.

Crystal Whitaker is a programme specialist in international development and humanitarian action, with over 15 years of field experience in providing emergency aid and post-crisis recovery assistance around the world. Many of these contexts have involved responding to the mass displacement of people, both within their own countries and across international borders as a result of conflict, persecution or disaster, such as in Nigeria, Iraq and Bangladesh.

With a background in architecture (University of Cambridge, London Metropolitan University), Crystal has designed and led projects providing safe and inclusive shelter and settlements for vulnerable populations in need, within which specific approaches towards disability need to be tailored to challenging local environments, operational contexts and intersectionalities.

Tickets:
£60 for NRAC members
