Inter-Agency Standing Committee (IASC) Guidelines
The Inter-Agency Standing Committee (IASC) Guidelines provide a framework for humanitarian response coordination among various organizations during crises. Established in 1992, the IASC includes key UN and non-UN humanitarian partners, ensuring effective collaboration in delivering aid and support to affected populations.
These guidelines emphasize the importance of a coordinated approach to humanitarian action, focusing on principles such as accountability, inclusivity, and respect for local contexts. By following the IASC Guidelines, agencies can enhance their response efforts, improve resource allocation, and ultimately better serve communities in need during emergencies.
