Comprehensive Training Workshops

The Sphere Ambassadors program offers webinars, workshops, and training on Sphere standards and best practices, delivered online and led by local seasoned humanitarian professionals.

Additionally, our program fosters networking opportunities, enabling trainers to reach wider audience and enhance professional networks.

Sphere is a set of guidelines for humanitarian response created in 1997. It aims to improve the quality of responses and be accountable for actions. The Sphere Handbook is a comprehensive guide covering topics such as protection principles, water supply, sanitation, food security, shelter, and health. It is a core reference for new and experienced humanitarian workers, providing guidance on priority actions and technical information. By using Sphere, humanitarian workers can ensure accountable assistance to help people survive, recover, and rebuild their lives with dignity.

The Arab region witnessed a surge in humanitarian challenges as fragile structures and diminished state institutions propelled NGOs to the forefront of relief efforts. However, the absence of familiarity with Sphere standards among local workers might impact aid quality. The Sphere Ambassadors Project is an innovative digital initiative aimed at improving humanitarian assistance in the Arab region, especially within the countries that suffer from humanitarian crises or their consequences. By promoting and popularizing the knowledge of the Sphere Handbook and offering webinars and workshops led by local professionals, this program aims to improve the quality of aid and preserve the dignity of recipients, which ultimately strengthens the resilience and well-being of the affected regions. Sphere Ambassadors fosters a network of knowledgeable frontline workers who are capable of multiplying their knowledge within their home countries, while enabling trainers to reach wider audience and enhance professional networks.
