520 |a We explore how expatriate humanitarian workers relate their religious, spiritual or nonreligious identities to their life and work in the challenging context of South Sudan. Recent studies have claimed that lived religion and nonreligion must be studied as culturally and contextually contingent phenomena. The empirical basis for this study is data from nine interviews with humanitarian workers in South Sudan who identify as either religious/spiritual or nonreligious. We aim to explore (1) how the humanitarians participating in this research describe their religious/spiritual or nonreligious identities and (2) how they relate their non/religious identities to the choice and experience of working as humanitarians. Both religious/spiritual and nonreligious informants associate their choice to work as humanitarians with values such as equality, dignity, justice and respect for life. Humanitarian work marked by parallel processes of sacralisation and secularisation allows for an understanding of similar values from different perspectives and therefore for the connotation of the same values in religious or nonreligious/secular terms.
