Sphere Training

The Sphere Handbook presents a principled approach to quality and accountability in humanitarian response. This basic training course provides an introduction to the Sphere Handbook with the basic principles of humanitarian aid – the Humanitarian Charter together with the Core Humanitarian Standard (CHS) and the Protection Principles – and the technical standards in the four sectors WASH, food security and nutrition, shelter and settlement, and health. The training focuses on the practical application of the manual in concrete humanitarian situations. To this end, numerous small group exercises are conducted.

The training is part of aha certification program for Certificate of Advanced Studies in „Foundations of Humanitarian Action“ .
