An introduction to the commitments and a link to the detailed list of requirements.
The 2024 Core Humanitarian Standard on Quality and Accountability is organised around nine commitments to people and communities affected by crises. Each describes an aspect of the support that people should be able to expect.
The commitments cover people's participation in decisions, timely assistance, preparedness for future crises and protection from harm. They also cover safe ways to raise concerns, coordination between organisations, improvements based on feedback, how staff and volunteers work with communities and how organisations manage resources.
The CHS resource page below introduces the commitments and links to the full requirements.
