Since its establishment, it has always adopted the principle of taking its systems, structures and practices to the next level in order to continuously improve the quality and accountability of the humanitarian relief it provides.
Last year IBC, in partnership with Sphere, provided training to 23 non-governmental organisations working in Syria on the correct and effective implementation of projects for WASH - water supply / sanitation / hygiene, Food security / Nutrition, Shelter / Settlement, Health; project development with logical framework approach, budget preparation principles and monitoring / evaluation processes with practical activities in the presence of expert trainers.
