[Ngo Climate Change] Announcement of Sphere Training of Trainers (ToT) on 20-26 January 2013 in Hanoi, Vietnam

[Viet Vu Xuan]

Dear DMWG, Sphere Working Group, VNRC Colleagues, and Humanitarian Partners,

Warm Greetings from Oxfam in Vietnam!


In July 2012, 3,000 Sphere handbooks and CDs (version 2011) were reproduced in Vietnamese and were disseminated widely in humanitarian actor community. The initiative was a joint work by Oxfam and members of Disaster Management Working Group (DMWG) in Vietnam with strong commitment to promote application of Sphere guidelines and minimum standards to enhance quality and accountability in humanitarian responses.



A Sphere Working Group (SWG) in Vietnam comprising of Oxfam, IFRC/VNRC, UNICEF, UNDP, Save the Children, Plan, WHO, World Vision, HSPH, HFHV, and CARE, have been established to facilitate this important initiative. Sphere Working Group members agreed to put collective efforts on awareness raising and capacity building of Sphere. We are therefore delighted to announce the upcoming Sphere Training of Trainers (ToT) course on 20-26 January 2013.


Coordinated by Oxfam and co-facilitated by the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent (IFRC) and Church World Service Pakistan/ Afghanistan, the course aims to gather professional trainers and humanitarian workers from VNRC, INGOs, NGOs, UN, DMWG members, humanitarian partners, universities and government agencies in Vietnam.
