CHS Alliance
The CHS Alliance is a network of non-governmental organizations working in humanitarian assistance. It was founded in June 2015 by the merger of HAP International and People In Aid. The goal of the CHS Alliance is to "improve the effectiveness and impact of assistance to people and communities vulnerable to risk and affected by disaster, conflict or poverty. As of the end of December 2019, it consists of over 150 member organizations.
One of its core mandates of the CHS Alliance is to apply and promote the Core Humanitarian Standard on Quality and Accountability, which was developed HAP International, People In Aid, and Groupe URD. The CHS now forms part of the Sphere Handbook on minimum standards in humanitarian response.
