INTRODUCTIONTHE CHS AND CHS ALLIANCE
The Core Humanitarian Standard on Quality and Accountability (CHS) is a set of Nine Commitments to people affected by crisis stating what they can expect from organisations and individuals delivering humanitarian assistance. The CHS facilitates greater accountability to people affected by crisis: knowing what humanitarian organisations have committed to enables people to hold organisations to account.1

KEY STEPS AND TIMELINE IN THE SELF-ASSESSMENT PROCESS

Before starting the process described below, it is crucial that an organisation ensures the strongest level of buy-in from their senior management.
1. Launch of the self-assessment
1.1 The focal point for the self-assessment in an organisation completes an online questionnaire3ontheorganisation’ssizeandstructure.TheinformationprovidedwillallowCHSAlliancetodecidethescopeandsizeofthesamplingforthefeedbacktobecollectedfromstaff,communitiesandpartners(ifrelevant).
1.2 The organisation communicates internally and externally with relevant stakeholders(includingstaffandpartners)toinformthemaboutthelaunchofthevalidatedCHSself-assessment.
2. Collect and analyse information and feedback
2.1 Documentary review–withintheorganisation, a self-assessment (SA)teamshouldbegatheredwithrepresentativesofthevariousdepartmentsandundertheleadershipoftheSAfocal point.TheSAteamisrequiredtoanalysetheorganisation’spoliciesandguidanceforeachofthe26 organisational responsibilities(OR).Theteamalsoevaluateshowwelltheorganisation’sguidanceismeetingtherequirementsoftheCHS,andwhateffortsarebeingmadetoprovideadequatetrainingandsupporttothestaffonit,sothattheteamcandecideascoreforeachoftheOR.Onceidentified,thescores,analysisandgoodpracticetoolsaresharedwithCHSAlliancethroughanonlinesurveycompletedbytheSAfocalpoint.

ORGANISATIONS WORKING WITH PARTNERS
Opinions of partners are a crucial source of information for many organisations completing a self-assessment. These opinions and feedback will be collected keeping two principles in mind:
• The CHS is a standard promoting the quality and accountability of the services provided to crisis-affected people, putting them at the centre. Assuch,itmakesnojudgementonhoworganisationschosetooperatebutaimsto measurethequalityandaccountabilityoftheservicesdeliveredtoaffectedpeople,independentlyoftheextenttowhichtheorganisationchosestoworkwithpartners.
• It is the organisation completing the self-assessment that is being evaluated, not the partners.Anorganisationchoosingtowork withpartnersshouldhavetheappropriateduediligencesystemsinplace,aswellascorrespondingsupportactivitiestoensurethatthepartnersareequippedwithsufficientcapacityandexpertise. Anorganisationmustensurethattheirprogrammesfulfiltheexpectedrequirementsforquality andaccountability.
In the preliminary phase of the self-assessment, the scope of the exercise (the expected size of the different samples) will be determined, including on this crucial aspect of partnership.
