Sphere, Humanitarian Charter and Minimum Standards in Disaster Response

Contacts - Focal Points

This is our Sphere Contacts Database. You will find here contact information for many people who have experience with Sphere. If you want to be included in this Database, please let us know.

This is a list that the Sphere Office is managing and it is not for people who are registered as Sphere online Community members. If you want to search for a registered user, you have to login and select "Search members" from the user menu.

The objective of this "informal network" of Sphere Focal Points is to create a momentum based on the voluntary action of people who believe in Sphere and in the need to enhance the Quality and Accountability of Humanitarian action. The network facilitates also sharing knowledge among practitioners about how to practically achieve that. If you are interested in becoming a Sphere Focal Point read here.
