Sustainable Development in Humanitarian Action
Find out how to make humanitarian action more sustainable
Incorporating sustainability into humanitarian action is key to making humanitarian organisations more effective and accountable. The course will show you how.
You’ll look at sustainability in the supply chain and field operations of a humanitarian organisation, covering the three dimensions of sustainable development: economic efficiency, social equity and environmental preservation.
Ultimately, you’ll learn how to design and implement a sustainability strategy; at project, programme and organisational level.
This course would suit staff and volunteers working in the humanitarian sector, particularly in the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement. It’d also be of use to individuals operating in developing countries that have weak State capacity. It may also interest those who want to see how sustainability can be applied to humanitarian action.
