Abstract
In the 21st century, humanitarian crises have become very complex in nature and affect huge portions of the global population, not just the marginalized, discriminated, indigenous, and disaster/war hit communities, but also people in so called developed and relatively rich nations. A Humanitarian Engineer can be a student, academic or professional from multiple disciplinary backgrounds, who harness a concern for global humanitarian crises with their unique expertise and skill. Together they collaboratively research, analyze and engineer holistic, innovative solutions for this issue. The IEEE is recently focusing much needed widespread attention on humanitarian issues. One example is the annual Global Humanitarian Technology Conference, which is followed by many regional conferences such as the IHTC Canada and HTC Sri Lanka. Only three articles were accepted for this Special Section after a very thorough review process.
