The Handbook serves as a guide to the normative framework for humanitarian action, operational approaches, coordination structures, and available tools and services that facilitate the mobilization of humanitarian assistance. It particularly emphasizes the roles and responsibilities of the UN Resident Coordinator (RC) and the Humanitarian Coordinator (HC) in leading and coordinating inter-agency humanitarian action, as well as the essential skills, competencies, and qualities of an effective humanitarian leader.
The Handbook does not prescribe specific actions, as approaches to humanitarian action and priorities may vary based on the specific context and type of emergency.
