Abstract: Humanitarian logistics plays a critical role in mitigating food insecurity by managing the procurement, warehousing, transportation, and distribution of aid to vulnerable populations. This paper examines and compares two student-led humanitarian logistics projects—“Siswa Care for the Street†and “Dapur Raya – Dapur Jalanan Kuala Lumpur (DJKL)†—both completed as part of the Logistics of Humanitarian Mission (TPT510) course. Through comparative analysis, we explore how students applied logistics principles, identified relevant logistical challenges, and presented viable humanitarian project ideas. The study evaluates key themes such as alignment with Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), capacity planning, risk management, and volunteer coordination. The findings demonstrate the importance of logistics in humanitarian missions and provide practical insights into student learning outcomes.
