Introduction
This module provides the ethical foundation for all humanitarian work by exploring the humanitarian principles of humanity, neutrality, impartiality and operational independence as a framework in which camp management actors should operate, including in challenging situations where a balance between the principles is required.
The module also introduces the Protection Principles with a focus on Do No Harm. The module also explores the relevance of Codes of Conduct (CoC) as a means of putting the Humanitarian and Protection Principles into practice.
