HAI STATEMENT ON ACCOUNTABILITY



HAI adopts the definition of accountability provided by Core Humanitarian Standard, which will be followed in its entire humanitarian programming. CHS defines accountability as “the process of using power responsibly, taking account of, and held accountable by, different stakeholders, and primarily those who are affected by the exercise of such power”.

HAI also commits to adhering with all nine commitments as enshrined in the CHS. HAI will systematically build its own capacity for achieving optimal standards of quality and accountability. Since HAI is a membership-based organisation, it will help its member organisations to build their capacity on the nine commitments. Any deviation from the nine commitments, due to practical constraints, will be recorded and informed to concerned stakeholders. The monitoring policy of HAI will also be inclusive of the performance indicators as described in the CHS Guidance Notes and Indicators.

HAI places communities and target people at the centre of programmes and promotes respect for their fundamental human rights. HAI’s humanitarian programme is underpinned by the right to life with dignity, and the right to protection and security as set forth in international law. HAI commits to provide clear and transparent information on the funds raised and how they have been dispersed. HAI will create a clear criteria for the process of fund dispersant and publicly publicise it on its website. It will set a clear monitoring system for the funds spent and will explore an open system for accountability with its members. For greater accountability, HAI will clearly define for what it should be held accountable for, and how to provide feedback/lodge complaints if set standards and benchmarks get violated. HAI will come up with different layers of feedback/complaints mechanism starting from the community level. HAI firmly believes that merely setting up a mechanism doesn’t give confidence to poor and marginalised communities to also excess them. Therefore, in addition to working on hardware, HAI will also work with target communities, giving them confidence to use feedback/complaints mechanism fearlessly and without and adverse consequences. Absolute confidentiality shall be ensured in the mechanism. A dedicated email address shall be available on HAI website to provide feedback and lodge complaint against member organisations and HAI staff. To ensure fair treatment to each complaint, an external body shall be appointed to provide feedback and lodge complaints against the senior management and Board members of HAI. HAI’s humanitarian actions shall be guided by principles of Humanity, Impartiality, Independence and Neutrality. While the first three principles will be followed without any exception, the principle of neutrality shall be applied with due diligence. At times, specifically in the contexts of conflicts, HAI may prefer to take sides with oppressed people than being neutral.
