Visit the Sphere Companionship webpage here
The concurrent update of the Inter-Agency Network for Education in Emergencies’ Handbook of Minimum Standards for Education in Emergencies, Chronic Crises and Early Reconstruction (2004 edition) and the revision of the Sphere Project’s Handbook - Humanitarian Charter and Minimum Standards in Disaster Response (2004 edition) are now underway. In line with the Sphere/INEE Companionship Agreement, we are seeking to ensure as many linkages as possible between the update and revision processes. Specific activities include mutual representation in the respective revision structures and processes, with the objective of mainstreaming education and references to the INEE Minimum Standards throughout the Sphere Handbook and strengthening inter-sectoral linkages and references to the Sphere Handbook in the INEE Minimum Standards Handbook. In addition, reference will also be made in both publications to the companion relationship and complementarity between the Sphere and INEE standards.
If you would like to provide specific suggestions on how to best mainstream education in the next edition of the Sphere Handbook and strengthen the linkages between the two sets of standards, you may:
- Conduct a local/regional or community level consultation meeting. Guidance on running consultations is available here. Feedback should be provided at the latest by 30 November 2009.
- Provide feedback to Allison Anderson (INEE), email: allison@ineesite.org and Avishan Chanani (Sphere), email: avishan.chanani@ifrc.org
