Submitted by crinadmin on Tue, 10/01/2006 - 11:51

Summary: In December 2004, INEE launched a handbook entitled Minimum Standards for Education in Emergencies, Chronic Crises and Early Reconstruction. Modelled on the Sphere Project, the Minimum Standards are both a handbook and an expression of commitment that everyone, young or old, has a right to education during emergencies. This article describes the use of the standards to develop education and child protection responses in the immediate aftermath of the tsunami in Aceh. pdf: www.odihpn.org/report.asp?ID=2763
