HelpAge International and CBM Global, as custodians of the Humanitarian Inclusion Standards (HIS), are inviting applications to lead an evidencing review on the use of the Humanitarian Inclusion Standards since 2018 to present day.
The research is intended to provide a clear understanding of its value add and gaps in the humanitarian and DRR sector and how a revised inclusion standard or other options should look is needed. As such, this project will focus on generating evidence from actors at global and local level to inform the decision-making process, with a final plan regarding the future of the HIS or other options to be made with clear recommendations at the end of the project.
The Humanitarian Inclusion Standards for Older People and People with Disabilities (HIS) was first published in 2018 by the Age and Disability Consortium as part of the ADCAP programme. The HIS was developed under the guidance of the consortium of CBM Global, DisasterReady.org, Humanity & Inclusion, HelpAge International, International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC), Oxford Brookes University and RedR UK, who provided oversight and technical guidance in developing project activities and innovators of change in developing the HIS as well as many other complimentary technical materials.
