Abstract

This paper, which compares humanitarian logistics research with needs in practice, has two key objectives. The first is to provide an overview of recent humanitarian operations and logistics research in the OR/MS field in order to set a foundation of academic contributions. The second builds upon the first by outlining the gaps between research and needs in practice in order to offer insights and motivate areas that could benefit from additional analysis and collaboration.
