Refugee Response Volunteer Orientation Workshop

This workshop has been designed to provide an orientation for volunteers operating in the European refugee response. It will look at how to assess people’s needs, and plan well-organised, safe and accountable distributions to those living in temporary camps. The course will provide an introduction to Sphere Standards, humanitarian principles and how to include affected people and other actors (authorities, INGOs, volunteers) in a coordinated response. You will gain an overview of child safeguarding principles, and will consider your own safety, security and well-being as part of the humanitarian response.
