Humanitarian Accountability Partnership International
Humanitarian Accountability Partnership International (HAP International), established in 2003, was the humanitarian sector's first international self-regulatory body.〔Jordan, Lisa and van Tuijl, Peter (2006). ''NGO Accountability: Politics, Principles and Innovations Earthscan, London.'' p. 39. ISBN 1844073688〕 A multi-agency initiative working to improve the accountability of humanitarian action to people affected by disasters and other crises, HAP members ranged from organisations with a mandate for emergency relief and development activities to institutional donors. The organisation aimed to strengthen accountability towards those affected by crisis situations and to facilitate improved performance within the humanitarian sector.〔(GlobalHAND Profile )〕 The ultimate goal of the organisation was to uphold the rights and the dignity of crisis-affected populations across the world.〔(Geneva Peacebuilding Platform Profile )〕
HAP International merged with People In Aid on 9 June 2015 to form the CHS Alliance and does no longer exist.
==Humanitarian Accountability==
HAP International, along with other quality and accountability initiatives,〔(ALNAP ); (Coordination SUD ); (ECB Project ); (Groupe URD ); (People in Aid ); (The Sphere Project )〕 has been pivotal in defining the concept of "humanitarian accountability", which has been much debated by the international humanitarian community.〔(Humanitarian Practice Network ); (Humanitarian Practice Network ); (Harvard University ); (The Guardian ); Hammad, Lama and Morton, Bill (October 2011). ("Greater influence, greater responsibility: Are INGOs' self-regulatory accountability standards effective?" ) pp. 13, 18. Retrieved on February 2, 2014.; Lloyd, Robert and de las Casas, Lucy. ("NGO self-regulation: enforcing and balancing accountability" ) p. 4. Retrieved on February 2, 2014.〕 The definition of "accountability" in a general sense is the responsible use of power, while "accountability in humanitarian situations" ensures that the power to help in situations of conflict and disaster is exercised responsibly.〔(IRIN )〕 When implemented, it means that survivors of war or disaster are able to influence decisions about the help they receive and can give feedback and complain if they feel the 'helping power' was not exercised well."〔(IRIN ); (AlertNet )〕
Commendation by the British Minister for International Development: On the 7th of October 2008 during a UNHCR Executive Committee meeting, the British Minister for International Development, Gareth Thomas, highlighted the achievements being made across the sector and commended all humanitarian agencies for the vital role they play in saving lives and assisting the world’s most vulnerable. The minister added, however, "I also want to challenge anyone who thinks the task of reform is complete. It isn’t. Yes – we have come a long way. But we have much further to go." He went on to say that there were, in his view, five "key elements essential for improving the international humanitarian response", including greater accountability. He argued, "Agencies urgently need to put in place standardised monitoring arrangements. And where accountability mechanisms already exist – such as the Humanitarian Accountability Partnership International – we must use them more systematically."〔(DFID )〕
