Suggested format to share experience/best practices/lessons/stories of using the Sphere handbook

The purpose of a Sphere case study is to share examples of the practical application of the Sphere handbook. Please send your case study in not more than 750 words to: info@sphereproject.org.

We suggest the following format:

Background

One or two paragraphs which describe the context. This might include:

· The country and region
· The disaster and who was affected
· The response to the disaster from local civil and governmental actors as well as international actors
· Your organisation and its work

The Problem

One paragraph which describes the problem that needed attention and why the Sphere handbook was applied.

How Sphere was used

Two to three paragraphs describing how Sphere was used and what the immediate changes were, if any.

Lessons learned

One paragraph summarising the result of using Sphere. Did it help in implementing the disaster response? What key issues did you identify, and what lessons are there for others using the handbook?
