Core Humanitarian Competencies Framework - colour
50.13 k PDF | Published in March 2012
The Core Humanitarian Competency Framework is a shared resource for all 15 Consortium of British Humanitarian Agencies (CBHA) and ECB agencies, and the wider humanitarian community including national NGOs and partners.
It identifies six core competencies essential to all staff in emergency response. Though it does not cover the entire spectrum of possible competencies required to be effective in a humanitarian response, it will be pivotal in guiding the Consortium’s capacity building efforts being led by Oxfam and Save the Children.
Core humanitarian behaviors:
- Understanding humanitarian contexts and application of humanitarian principles
- Achieving results effectively, considering the need for speed, scale and quality
- Developing and maintaining collaborative relationships
- Operating safely and securely in high risk environments
- Managing yourself in a pressured and changing environment
- Leadership in humanitarian response
Download the framework in black and white, English and colour, French.
