Accountability

Joint Aid Management is committed to full accountability and transparency in our work, at all times.

We commit to providing aid that will improve the lives of those that we work with whilst adhering to four key elements:

– Humanity: The purpose of humanitarian action is to protect life and health and ensure respect for human beings. We will address human suffering wherever it is found in terms of our work and areas of operations.
– Neutrality: We pledge to not taking sides in hostilities or engage in controversies of a political, racial, religious or ideological nature.
– Impartiality: We pledge to carry out Humanitarian action on the basis of need alone, giving priority to the most urgent cases of distress and making no distinctions on the basis of nationality, race, gender, religious belief, class or political opinions.
– Independence: We pledge to remain autonomous from the political, economic, military or other objectives that any actor may hold with regard to areas where humanitarian action is being implemented.

We are proud members of the CHS Alliance, and we remain committed towards the full application of the Core Humanitarian Standards Alliance and its principals as set out below:
