The Sphere standards are the most widely recognized humanitarian standards across the globe, and essential for anyone working in the sector to understand and adhere to. They provide a set of principles and minimum humanitarian standards in four technical areas of humanitarian response: Water, Sanitation and Hygiene; Food Security and Nutrition; Shelter and Settlement; and Health.

The Sphere in Practice course enables you to learn how to implement the standards, by considering their application to realistic examples of complex and protracted crises. 

You can now earn an HPass badge as verifiable evidence of your knowledge of the Sphere Standards, when you complete the Sphere in Practice course on Kaya.
