The #CHSRevision is in progress. At today's Geneva event we commented, improved, debated. And we underlined that we cannot do this alone; governments, funders, NGOs communities, individuals... the entire sector should advocate for the CHS and its inherent #accountability

“Institutional capacities are sustainably strengthened through CHS Verification (self-assessments or indep. audits)”. The process does not stop with the assessment, NGOs then need to identify how to address the gaps, says CHSA’s Geneviève Cyvoct. Excellent H2H session #HNPW2023

Donor compliance will not go away Vs Local actors require funding and trust. Joost @_HQAI proposing practical solutions to bridge this gap: passporting #CHS audits on donor requirements, CBPF, consortia = deduplicating #duediligence with focus on #accountability #ehf2023

Nicely feeding into #ehf2023 discussions on deduplicating donor due diligence for the benefit of localisation
A #proof of concept was established after a #CHS+ pilot project together with donors and the national NGO Friendship. The results highlighted that HQAI‘s #audit methodology is #robust, covering significant aspects of the #Due #Diligence of donors. hqai.org/en/news/chs-pilot/

"At @EECOWEB, we knew we did not want to represent the #IDP community or speak on behalf of them. The solution had to come from them, supported by us." @Nanet_Antequisa describing good practice #ehf2023

Donors inclined to do more but there are limits to reducing procedures. "Realitycheck because we spend taxpayers money" Swiss Nicole Ruder. Panellists confirm that workable solutions shouldn't be on individual bureaucracy but #harmonisation + #DueDiligence passporting. #ehf2023

#Flexible funding is crucial for L/NOs sais Gloria @FoundationTiti. Flexibility is key for @UNWRA sais P. Lazzarini. It helps build engagement+respect with communities sais BBatunde @RESCUEorg. @GermanyDiplo Humanitarian Chief and MFA @Ulkoministerio see advantages. #ehf2023

It would probably be inappropriate to admit that I had been stalking @michaelmoss44 to share that drink 😉 Excellent moment shared with interesting people at #ehf2023
As you know @annemstreet started a now widely practised twitter tradition to buy a drink for your 100th 200th 300th etc follower on twitter. I often fail to do so but yesterday I succeeded in acquiring an admittedly free drink for @WalDaisy @_HQAI my 700th follower at #ehf2023

"Emergency context or limited resources should never be an excuse for wrongdoing, including exploitation, abuse, and harassment." Straight to the point opening remarks in today's @SafeguardingRSH webinar on #safeguarding in emergencies. #Corehumanitarianstandard #TrustAid

Fachleute reden der #Lokalisierung das Wort, doch konkret geschehen ist nicht genug. Geberländer wollen der Zielgrösse von 25% «lokalisierten» Mitteln jetzt Taten folgen zu lassen. @DanielHitzig kommentiert das #Humanitär-Thema jetzt für die #NeueZürcher shorturl.at/lnBIP

533 too many. Chilling numbers published by @RSF_inter We must stand in solidarity with those who embody journalistic freedom, independence, pluralism. It's about #democracy
🔴 2022 #RSFRoundUp: Last year’s record has been broken again. 533 journalists are in prison. RSF has also never previously seen so many women journalists in detention. (30% more than a year ago) More than one journalist was killed every week in 2022 rsf.org/en/new-record-number…

3-minute read of sound technical solutions to some sector-wide problems. Promising !
"The sector needs to choose more #effective, #integrative, and #collaborative approaches towards #localisation" Read the article for a full disclosure of the discussion at #HQAI Donor Roundtable 2022. hqai.org/en/news/RT2022/

Germany has still significant leverage and could be a bit more punchy ensuring that quality funding is downstreamed along the line. @cha_germany's Sonja Hövelmann on #GrandBargain processes and humanitarian coordination #CHA22

Important points on the @_HQAI round table. In particular I noted a point that its primarily about #Accountability to Affected People - you sometimes hear the complaint that #humanitarians 'mark their own homework' - Not if they are certified they don't. #AAP @CHS_Alliance.
