The Humanitarian Accountability Partnership (HAP) "is striving to make humanitarian action accountable to its intended beneficiaries: those people whose lives are at risk due to armed conflict or other calamitous events.
- "The launch of HAP in 2003 followed many years of consultation, research and negotiation within the humanitarian system. HAP is a partnership of member agencies that share a commitment to making humanitarian action accountable to disaster survivors. At the heart of this endeavour lies HAP´s Principles of Accountability.The members of HAP seek to comply with and promote these principles through capacity-building, self-regulation, quality assurance certification and advocacy."
