The Sphere Handbook in Action e-learning course aims to strengthen the effective use of the Sphere Handbook, Humanitarian Charter and Minimum Standards in Humanitarian Response
The United Nations Disaster Assessment and Coordination, (UNDAC) handbook is intended as an easily accessible reference guide for members of an UNDAC team before and during a mission to a disaster or emergency.
Launched in 1997 by a group of humanitarian NGOs and the Red Cross and Red Crescent movement, The Sphere Project is an initiative to define and uphold the standards by which the global community responds to the plight of people affected by disasters, principally through a set of guidelines that are set out in the Humanitarian Charter and Minimum Standards in Disaster Response (commonly referred to as the Sphere Handbook).

the intent of this handbook is not to explain how CALL does business. Rather, it takes a holistic look at what CALL does today and combines that with numerous, successful LL programs to lay a foundation for a "generic" LL capability that can be used as a "menu" of options to develop your own LL program. There are no hard-and-fast rules for how to set up an LL program. Typically, any LL effort will depend on what the organization is trying to achieve and its level of resourcing. Every organization must develop its own way of working with observations, insights, lessons, and best practices that suits the nature of the knowledge it requires and its organizational culture
