Do you think disaster survivors have a right to voice their opinion and feedback on the way the humanitarian sector interacts with them in life and death circumstances?
Are you motivated to help the humanitarian system identify, advocate, integrate and sustain a culture of downward accountability to beneficiaries?
Can you manage and inspire a highly skilled team to serve the biggest and smallest organisations alike with consultancy and training in authentic practice of accountability?
Founded in 2003, Humanitarian Accountability Partnership International (HAP) is supporting the voices of the world’s most vulnerable citizens. It exists to help the cultural transformation of the humanitarian sector from service providers to an effective and accountable community in times of crisis and rehabilitation.
