As a member of the Disaster’s Emergency Committee, through the START network, Bond, and as the UK member of the HelpAge global network, Age International commits to promoting and raising awareness of the Humanitarian Inclusion Standards for Older People and People with Disabilities (now part of the SPHERE Humanitarian Standards Partnership) to ensure people with disabilities and older people are included in humanitarian action.
Timeframe and/or implementation plan
We will work with HelpAge in 2018-20 to develop a strategy for the promotion of the Humanitarian Inclusion Standards through advocacy, training and learning activity.
