I'm a foreign aid worker (not the same person from earlier in the discussion) and the sector ABSOLUTELY has massive issues, although I'll note that the most profound issues are with the military-adjacent folks, not typically the humanitarian relief folks. For those terrible things done by aid workers, though, there are systems and accountability. I have to go through HOURS of safeguarding training every year, including very specific protocols for speaking to minors, to dealing with displaced people, etc. Those trainings are necessary because the sector is trying to improve.

Until religious aid workers do the same, specifically on the evangelical side, it is fair to be wary of them. [/quote]
