Sphere Training For Blue Sky Rescue, 7-12 April 2023, Guiyang, China

To improve the quality of humanitarian responses and to be accountable for the actions, to ensure that there are unified standards among all teams in future rescue activities and make it easier to promote communication and cooperation between brother rescue teams in different regions, Guizhou Blue Sky Rescue Team conducted a five-day training course on the International Disaster Relief Standards in Guiyang from April 8 to April 12, 2023.

This Training focussed on the four core chapters of Sphere, how to use the standards, and cross-cutting themes. Through the training, institutions concerned with disaster relief gradually mastered the working principles and methods of some rescue projects, as well as the planning and management of projects.

Through training, we promote the participation of actors in learning, and in addition to improving their own capabilities, they also establish a learning platform to exchange and share the knowledge they have learned with other partners, learn and grow together, and reflect on and summarize past disaster relief work together.

The event is sponsored by the Amity Foundation and Oxfam Hong Kong.
