The Emergency Procedures complement the CCCs with an operational set of procedures, designed to aid UNICEF personnel to meet the CCCs. They lay out a mandatory package of minimum actions required for all Country Offices (COs), Regional Offices (ROs) and Headquarters (HQ) Divisions responding to humanitarian crises and reflect the recommendations of Strengthening UNICEF’s Humanitarian Action, the 2020 UNICEF Humanitarian Review.

This Guidance Handbook is designed to provide additional guidance and clarity for CO, RO and HQ staff who implement the Emergency Procedures.
