Guidance

Across the humanitarian sector, organizations are developing capacity to take climate and environmental action. This guidance page offers two forms of support to organizations in their efforts to advance the Charter commitments.

Understanding the Commitments

This guidance aims to support organizations as they deepen their understanding of the Charter commitments in order to develop targets and measure progress. It will evolve over time, as our knowledge and practices develop.

Guidance on Target Development

To turn the Charter Commitments into reality, organizations should develop specific and measurable targets and design action plans that outline how they plan to meet their targets. The Charter Secretariat commissioned a case-study report on how signatories are advancing the Charter commitments, presenting examples – as well as lessons learned and recommendations – on the process of developing and implementing targets.

Tools and Resources Platform

The Charter Secretariat is publishing a series of thematic guidance pages to support capacity sharing on the commitments of the Charter. These resources include tools, guides, training opportunities, working groups, communities of practices, technical experts, resource libraries and support desks, among many other forms of support.
